The Essence of Arwyn

Date February 13, 2010

If someone were to ask me to describe Arwyn in a few words, there is just no way I could. She is my sweet girl, yet my girl who doesn’t take crap from anyone. She loves to dress up like a princess and Batman all the same. She can be hilarious and [...]

The Case of the Missing Appliance

Date January 4, 2010

If you walked into my kitchen, there are a few things you would notice immediately. It is small, the floor needs mopped (desperately, but do I really want to mop when there are 8 inches of snow outside? Seems futile.), my oven is much more humble looking than my fridge, and the microwave [...]

Date December 31, 2009

1. The Moby Wrap

I have no idea how I would have made it through the first months of Judah’s life without this. I can truly say it is the best baby item I have ever purchased. He rides in it and sleeps in it everyday. Amazing!
2. My new camera a [...]

Natural: Judah – A Boy of the Cloth

Date December 30, 2009

Recently I began cloth diapering Judah. As a mom who is new to cloth diapering, it has been an adventure.

Using disposable wipes/diapers and diaper rash cream [...]

Few things are more adorable than this.

On our way to Natural

Date December 18, 2009

I am no where near being a hippie, but I do like the idea that life can be lived without the yucky stuff that comes with being the average American consumer. So for the next few weeks, I am going to try to post a few of the things I do to make our [...]

So, where is Santa?

Date December 17, 2009

Jeremiah and I don’t do the Santa thing. It has little to do with most of the reasons Christians abolish Santa from their home, like the letters from Santa spelling Satan. Really? I don’t care about that. Our reasons are really not too terribly spiritual but more in line with our [...]
