Cloth Wipes Aren’t Just For Butts!

February 22, 2012

When we made the switch to cloth diapers, we also made the switch to cloth wipes (because it was just too annoying to have to think about which of the two containers I should be reaching for when holding a poopy item. I much prefer being able to mindlessly toss the offending item in the [...]

Happy First Birthday, Nathan!

February 20, 2012

Sometimes the time seemed to pass unbearably slowly, but at the end of the first year, I’m baffled at how quickly it went by and how far we’ve all come!       I’m so excited to see what the next year holds for us

If Only Babies Came With Instruction Manuals

February 17, 2012

Babies can be frustrating little creatures who can’t tell you what they want (JUST TELL ME WHY YOU ARE CRYING AND I WILL GLADLY FIX IT! I JUST DON’T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG!!) and I really think most of the first year or so is spent trying to figure out what makes them tick. There [...]

I Spy With My Little (Night Vision Camera) Eye . . .

February 13, 2012

When we were registering for my baby shower, I tried really hard to keep things reasonable. I registered only for the items I thought were a necessity, and I shopped around to find the cheapest places for those items. We got a very reliable audio baby monitor that has served us well. But I always [...]

Today I Met Nathan (And He Was Drooly)

February 10, 2012

The front of Nathan’s shirt is soaked with drool, strings of which are dripping directly from his mouth onto the floor. As he crawls around the house, he leaves a trail of slime behind him like a slug. I’m guessing we’ll be seeing another tooth soon. It took me a while to figure out how [...]

Babies Are Great, But Caring For Them Sometimes SUCKS!

February 8, 2012

Parenting comes with a lot of unsavory tasks. (Diapering comes to mind, as does cleaning up puke. So mostly, as a parent, you just have to resign yourself to dealing with a lot of smelly bodily fluids!) What’s funny is that those things don’t bother me too much. I enjoy diaper changing time (well, nobody really [...]

My “No Surgery In 2012!” Slogan Lasted Less Than A Month (Yet Another Glasses Update)

February 1, 2012

Picking up where I left off in my last post (where I mentioned that Nathan was going to start wearing an eye patch for an hour a day), we returned to the eye doctor after 6 weeks of patching to evaluate his progress. While the doctor saw some vaguely positive results (if she covered up [...]

Life Is Good

January 12, 2012

It’s been a hectic few months, but things are great! We went home for the holidays, saw a lot of family, and now we are all back at home and settling into a new routine. Other than Nathan’s turning 1 in a month (good HEAVENS that went by quickly!) I’m looking forward to a few [...]

Moving Is Like Eating Pasta

December 2, 2011

First of all, I doubt anyone even noticed, but I went from blogging regularly 3 times a week to . . . pretty much not blogging at all again. What can I say? Life got busy (SO BUSY! SO much has happened this month! We traveled! We met new family members! Nathan learned to crawl [...]
