Business Decisions

As always, I am long overdue for an update on Papoose. I haven't said much about it since World Breastfeeding Week, largely because World Breastfeeding Week felt like my last-ditch effort to garner some additional support and interest in my goa[...]

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[...]

Yoga and Play

This past session of classes for Papoose were the best yet, especially with the addition of two Tiny Tumblers classes. I love the two hours per week I get to see little people jumping, balancing, running, and rolling. They are so cute, sweet[...]

Cow’s Milk And Our Family

When I was growing up, dinner always came accompanied with (what seemed like) a huge glass of white milk.  In my elementary school cafeteria, we had to drink our entire carton of milk (skim, 2%, or whole, no flavoring there) before be[...]

Report Card

I need to manage my time better.  I just spent 20 minutes deciding on/editing/uploading on a new cover photo for my Facebook timeline.  The dishes are done, the bathroom is clean, and the floors were swept yesterday, but mopping just[...]

Teaching (and Debating) Breastfeeding

At 9:30 a week ago tonight, my cell phone rang.  By the time I was down the stairs and into the dining room (praying the ring wouldn't wake up Nora), it had stopped.  I didn't recogize the number and so I didn't bother to listen to the message[...]

30 Days of Thanks: Friendship

Today, I am most thankful for our friends. I'm thankful for our La Leche League "friends" who get together one morning a month to support one another.  I love having the opportunity to see how quickly the babies are growing and welcome new lit[...]

We had a cold snap and yesterday we had to get all bundled up for Zara's soccer game. It was 30 degrees and, despite these pictures, Vivi's patience for being out there did not last long. Tomorrow it's supposed to be 80 degrees and we're really looking forward to warmth again.

By the way, my awesome gaiter came from our client @isacattostudio. Isa paints patterns and makes really beautiful textiles and notebooks with her patterns. ♥️ her work and team.

Yesterday we got our first taste of summer. It was warm enough that we got out the sprinkler in the afternoon. I worked most of the day but had a nice break for a couple hours in the afternoon during which I sat outside listening  to music and watching the 4 of them dance in the yard. I couldn't ask for much more on a Monday.

The best thing about having a king sized bed is having space for cuddle bugs.

Walking around the neighborhood with Z and I'm reliving my first experience with entrepreneurship: @girlscouts cookie sales. My mom was our troop leader (all the way through Juniors) and I remember our garage piled high with boxes and boxes of cookies. 

It's fun watching Z try her hand at sales. She is fearless and no problem describing every cookie to complete strangers. Despite having never done it before, she has an incredibly aggressive goal of selling 1500 boxes of cookies. If any kid can do it, though, I think she can.
