What's Happening Now on The Playground

Yeah these are great. U know after my little boy was born he was constantly hungry - at 9lb's I just couldn't keep him fed, my nipples ended up pouring with blood. It go to the point where my husband said to stop and we'd go onto to formula. It was…

Well put. Sometimes moms get so caught up in guilt that they can not be comfortable when they make the right decision for themselves and therefore their family. To each his own. A full and happy baby equals a happy mommy.

We saw a baby Princess Leigh costume and we could not resist. We put a gun belt on our cocker spaniel and she was Chewbacca. It's really fun to dress them up until they start getting big opinions about what they will and won't wear.

I know it's early, but we've been discussing Penelope's first Halloween around here. What did your babe go as for their first? She will be almost a year old by then. Thanks!

That's a line from "Summer Skin" by Death Cab for Cutie. As summer comes to a close it is almost like Penelope knows. For the last few weeks she has been demanding to go outside around 7 in the evening. The minute we get out she is happy. The minute…

It seems we are raising our own little optimist. She has been working on her head nods. It's so funny to see her work through this. I must talk much more with my head bobbing all around than I ever realized because she just stares and stares at me a…

5 reasons I don't feel guilty about feeding my baby jar food...

"What's eating you alive just might help you to survive..."
~ Ted Leo


I must be reading too many books about feeding my baby as most of my 5 reasons have centered on food recently. I bought Super Baby Food as was recommended to me by a sweet-meaning cashier admiring my growing belly last fall. I am certain she was trying to help. I really don't think she knew of the hours I would spend studying it before Penelope was eating solids and worrying about ignoring it after Penelope started sol… Continue

5 reasons to not feel guilty about formula feeding...

"I'm worse for the wear, but I'm wearing it well..."
~ Beck


This week's list is about feeding. We all know everyone has an opinion about what is best, what is right, what is what. I think what is right is what is right for you. I breastfeed but did supplement with formula. These are my top five reasons not to feel guilty about formula or "I wish my daughter would look at my eyes and not my boobs"...

1. When you come home your child is happy to see you, not happy to see food has arrived.… Continue

"You don't have to be content, but you do have to get on with it." ~Bright Eyes

As summer comes to a close I find thoughts of the holiday season popping into my mind. I know this is crazy but I was thinking how fun it would be to take Penelope all wrapped up and look at Christmas lights. Someone asked what my earliest memory is...sledding when I was little. The universe keeps sending me hints and now it's on my mind.

I have a theory about those of us who live in the Midwest and it deals with the ability to be content. Around here we are always looking forward to the next s… Continue

The longest shadows ever cast...

That's a line from "Summer Skin" by Death Cab for Cutie. As summer comes to a close it is almost like Penelope knows. For the last few weeks she has been demanding to go outside around 7 in the evening. The minute we get out she is happy. The minute we walk in she pouts.

I'm not sure how we will raise an outdoor child. Although we both like to be outside, I wouldn't call us outdoorsy. Although if her requests are long walks, playing fetch with the puppy and blowing bubbles in the grass, we can… Continue

I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use to be anything else. ~Winston Churchill

It seems we are raising our own little optimist. She has been working on her head nods. It's so funny to see her work through this. I must talk much more with my head bobbing all around than I ever realized because she just stares and stares at me and tries it for herself.


Then this morning she was sitting playing. She stopped and was quiet for awhile. She looked up at me, nodded her head yes, and burst out laughing. She had figured it out - and she was very tickled by herself.
