There is nothing more unattractive than a woman who says she is unattractive. Sounds harsh, but the self-deprecating comment you make to others is not doing you any favors. But being a woman is hard, we’re told to be strong yet not pushy, confident yet not full of herself. The self-deprecating comment appears as a…
Happy Wednesday! You get to see Emerson instead of me because I am working from home today. Face is washed, teeth are brushed, but that’s about it. I don’t think anyone needs to see me in my Bravado nursing tank, capri yoga pants from old Navy and Gap hoodie… oh yes, and green chenille grippy…

I just received the proof for our cool baby announcements and just HAD to share with you guys! This is the picture I sent in… And this is the announcement… How utterly cool is that?

Well, not constant feeding, but constant fussiness between the feedings so there was no break. Somehow she realized we were a bit exhausted, and…
Sorry I have been gone so long… it’s near impossible to blog and care for a newborn. She doesn’t sleep through the night, she eats a lot and only I can provide that (though my husband the SuperDad wishes he could lactate so he could bond with her on all levels), and when we do…
As most of you know, my plan was to have a completely natural birth. I switched early in my pregnancy from a highly-respected OB/GYN group to a birthing center with midwives after much research. Call me a hippie or a masochist, but I really wanted to experience the birth of my child sans medication, surgery…
Just a quick note as that I just got back home – our daughter was born on January 8th, 2009 at 5:35 AM. She was 7 lbs., 9 oz., 19 inches long with brown hair. Think she looks a lot like me, but a bit of her daddy (especially with her long legs!). When I…
