I’m enjoying making baby food. It’s incredibly inexpensive, pretty easy and I’m glad to know exactly what Mazen is eating. But I have no intention of feeding him only foods that I have made myself.

We are almost to 8 months and I feel like time is just slipping through my fingers!! I look back at photos of Mazen when he was tiny (not that he was ever tinytiny!) and I really struggle to remember those days. We have hit the stage where Mazen is learning new things every single [...]

One of the ongoing challenges of being a mom is finding time to shower. For us, showers most often happens during nap time, but some of the time Mazen is up and I need to shower asap. I present the waterless bathtub! I used to drag his seats up from the basement, but that’s was [...]

Like I’ve said before, I’m just kind of going with the flow when it comes to baby food. We did start with oatmeal, but after that, it was easier just to make purees myself than navigate the scary baby food aisle, so that’s what we did. (I have since explored that aisle and found some [...]

Last fall I had the chance to review some workout wear from a company called pv.body. I really liked what I received. Since then, a lot has changed.

This is a post that I really debated writing. Writing about crying is never going to be accepted by all. Ultimately I decided to share because I find reading blog accounts of baby events before I attempt them myself to be SO helpful. I hope this post is helpful for some of you. If you [...]
