Judging the Crunchy.
I once wrote about how I was that girl before Sullivan. You know, the girl that says breastfeeding is icky and that natural birthing is a ridiculous idea and that attachment parenting is for weirdos. Yeah. That girl. I look back at how much this child has changed me and my ideas, and I’m almost [...]
Gloomy weather calls for a nice, hot soup.
Oh, March, you’re such a tease. You came into my life so beautifully, full of promise and Spring and bunny rabbits. And now? You stand outside of my door with a hang-dog look on your face. Gray, rainy, and cold. I loathe you, right now. So in spite of this nasty weather, I’m going to [...]
Winner of the Willvin Diaper Bag is…
Jill Anselmo! Congrats, Jill! I’m emailing you now to get your information. Thanks for all the entries
I’m so proud.
I read a post today by my good friend, Law Momma, about her stance on our country’s support of the military. I won’t tell you about it because it’s too good for you not to read on your own. I just wanted to talk about my stance. There’s this strange, polarizing effect the military has [...]
Glamourmom® Nursing Bra Review and Giveaway!
When I was nursing Sully, one of my biggest complaints was that my nursing bras were horrible. They were all wireless (which was nice), but the support simply wasn’t there. Not to mention that after a few washes, they began falling apart. You could see the outlines of the cups under most anything, and the [...]
The Diaper Days are Upon Us.
There’s something kind of special about the first really beautiful day of spring, BabyLegs, pretty diapers on a line, and pinecones. Especially when there’s a chubby, little boy running around to help you enjoy it. If he could? He’d be outside all day. Every time we have to take a trip inside, there’s the inevitable [...]
Sustainablebabyish Review and Giveaway (and coupon code)!
I was introduced to Sustainablebabyish (Sloomb) last September when Erin sent me a diaper cover and snapless fitted diaper to review and giveaway. This company is incredible. Truly, one of my new favorites. Their motto, “Do one thing today,” is inspiring. Their goal is to change this world, positively, to create a better Earth for [...]
Cloth Diapers: The Revolving Door.
Cloth diapering has been quite a journey for us. There have been a great deal of ups and downs, and once after a vacation where I just used disposables, I came thisclose to giving it up all together. Because it’s a lot of work. A LOT. Especially at first. We knew we had to switch. [...]
This one’s for the Ladies: Domino Pads Review
Disclaimer: Not for those who don’t want to read about periods. Or episitomies. When I first started researching diapers, I stumbled across something I found strange; Mama Cloth. WHY?! I wondered. Why would anyone want to re-wash pads? Why would anyone want to USE a pad? Gross and no thanks. I happily went about pretending [...]
Oh Jehovah’s Witness, I don’t think we’d get along.
This morning was a whirlwind of rush. Sully and I had a lunch date with a sweet friend that recently moved into the area, and anytime I make plans for before 2:00PM, I find myself running around like a crazy person just to get ready. I heard a knock on the door. I froze….maybe if [...]

"I'm a twenty-five-year old mama to two little boys and married to the love of my life. I have a serious Diet Coke addiction and a tendency to overshare. This is the story of us as we flounder through raising our wild, little boys, moving a million times, and buying and renovating our 1968 Ranch home."
