If you've been reading my blog for a while, then you know that I exclusively gave my little girl breastmilk for the first year of her life. This didn't come easy, as I was working full time as a teacher and taking two grad classes, but I was driven. I knew that the best possible nutrition came from breastmilk and it was a great way to bond with her while I had to work. When you have a new baby, … [Read more...]

My toddler is quickly becoming a chocoholic and I hate it! She's a girlie girl, so I can't really blame her - what girl doesn't enjoy a rich dark chocolate snack?

I needed a more convenient way to access my boob when my impatient baby was ready to eat. I also needed a great way to keep the rest of my body covered while … [Read more...]
