World Breastfeeding Week & A Papoose Update

I’ve been pretty quiet about Papoose lately, because aside from teaching Tiny Tumblers classes and doing the occasional private lactation consultation, I haven’t been doing a lot.  I took a break blogging over there when I got pregnant and busy with websites, because there just wasn’t enough time in the day or energy in my body.  Now that I’m feeling less like a zombie (yay, second trimester!), things are picking back up…just in time for World Breastfeeding Week.

I’m trying to maintain blog number two again, getting ready to start another session of Tiny Tumblers, and have been working my behind off planning a ton of great breastfeeding support and promotion events for Nantucket.

I’ll be teaching another free breastfeeding class at the hospital, which is my favorite thing to do: share breastfeeding joy with new mamas excited to embark down a new road.  But, I am most excited — ecstatic, really — about Dr. Kajsa Brimdyr coming to speak on island.  Not only is this an amazing opportunity for our birth professionals and community to learn from an international expert, but it is also the first time I have ever managed to envision and put together something of this magnitude.  I’ll admit, I was more than a little nervous asking her to come and figuring out how to execute it all, but with the very generous assistance of Nantucket Cottage Hospital my dream became reality.  Now all I have to hope for is an awesome turnout that makes the trip worthwhile for for her as a speaker.

If you are on Nantucket and interested in learning more about these events or RSVPing, please visit the Papoose website.

It's that time again... Girl Scout cookies! And this year we have two selling. Help them meet their cookies sales goals by ordering online. 

If you live nearby, choose girl delivery and help get cookie boxes out of our garage... Otherwise we're going to be giving them Girl Scout  Cookies for birthday and Christmas presents all year.

Bus stop selfie with Nora. This week she moved from her tiny charter school with only 18 eighth graders to the public middle school with over 200. And now she rides the bus.

The charter school wasn't challenging her enough, has a huge percentage of students who are disruptive in the classroom, and has been having trouble keeping teachers. Last year she loved it. But this year it was one thing after another, so right before Thanksgiving she and I went to go tour our neighborhood  middle school, and she immediately wanted to make the switch.

We've never had a kid in public school and I was nervous about how the transition would go from such a small school to a big one, but so far she's loving it and is glad she decided to move schools. It helps that she knows kids there already from her dance team. Hopefully she'll still be happy when she starts getting homework. Coming from a no homework school that may be a shock to us all.

Halloween 2022. Two witches, a murderous cat, and a creepy Victorian doll. 

Zara's costume was my favorite this year - Nora did her makeup and she wore my flower girl dress from my mom and step-dad's wedding. She might have worn it better. 😂

Visiting my sweet tiny niece. I had the honor of being the doula at her birth and helping her come into the world. Her parents did amazingly (especially her mama) and everyone is excited to have another little girl in the family.
