I am in the process of weaning Eva but I think I am actually weaning myself. The main reason I have decided to do this is because she gets up a 1 a.m. and wants to nurse and is restless and nursing until about 5 a.m. when she finally falls back to sleep. Obviously this [...]
I think it is time to start training Eva to sleep through the night and do it in her crib. I know it will be easier if I do it now and it will be harder the longer I wait. I know that it will be better for her as well; she needs to get [...]
The biggest decision I had to make recently was to get Eva the swine flu vaccine or not. In the beginning I decided not to and felt great about it. It was constantly debated around me but I never entered the debate or gathered information. My pediatrician told me it was safe [...]
These are the beautiful leaves that are gracing my yard. I love them.
I am very excited about their potential.
I am going to attempt to make my own mulch with them to use in my garden next year.
My first garden.
Not only do these beautiful leaves provide me shade in the summer and provide me beauty in [...]

then looking down to find this…
The Month of Fun is not complete without going to visit the witches
at Gardener Village and picking out your own pumpkins in
a pumpkin patch.
of course this is my favorite witch
We did all of this on my sister’s birthday. It was such a fun day.
I want an October baby so bad.
Which means I would need to [...]
I am sitting here alone in my house. It is quiet. Eva is asleep. Clint is gone with a friend. I have actually turned off the TV. All the lights are off and the only sound is the computer and an occasional car outside.
Now is the time reflection comes.
I pulled [...]
I realize that breasts are important for many things and that breastfeeding is one of the most important things I can do for Eva; though I have the opinion that the main reason that breasts were designed was to give comfort and to be a nice place to rest one’s head.
Sunday I felt [...]
Only two you say??? Well so far, I am only in 5 1/2 months.
