I couldn’t let International Babywearing Week pass without reposting something I wrote about baby wearing. I have such fond memories of wearing both my babies. Luckily I’m still able to wear Evelyn. Now that she’s 17 months she is really loving…

I’ve never had to rely so much on make-up like I do now. Between my melasma that developed during my pregnancies and my dark circles (we all know where that comes from) I need some make-up magic before I get out the door. I’ve also never liked the look of too much make-up. At the moment it’s a pretty big trend that I won’t be following. Yes, make-up is fun and sometimes I have to put more on than I normally would. But this here is my everyday, quick fix; get out the door “natural” approach.

My youngest daughter, Evelyn is a big fan of her sense of taste, and until recently insisted on tasting just about anything she could get her hands on! So when I started looking for sensory projects for her, I sought out ones that were edible. Not the ones that actually tasted yummy, because I felt I would be fueling the fire. Evelyn has thankfully just transitioned out of the “put everything in your mouth” stage, but these bins are great no matter what stage of development your younger children are in.

I recently shared how Mabel is becoming quite the craft aficionado. So much so that I put together a craft kit so we are ready whenever inspiration strikes! To be completely honest, having everything organized and in one place has definitely increased the frequency of Mabel’s artistic moments. Good clean fun that keeps little minds and hands busy?! I would call that a parental win. I don’t know why I didn’t do this sooner!

A girlfriend of mine is pregnant (YEAH) but has morning sickness (BOOO.) Poor thing! It brought back some pretty bleak memories for me. With both pregnancies I was severely sick the first four months. I’m talking vomiting from morning till night.
