6 Weeks Postpartum and 30 Years Old…ahhhh

[November 29]

Today I’m officially done with my twenties.  I’d say I have emotions running wild around that, but the truth is they’re more like fleeting thoughts.  I’m was too deep into infantdom to be preoccupied with anything other than diapers and daily life.  That said, I’m sure my thirties will be great.  And I have no [...]

Victoria is our turkey!

[November 18]

Even though Thanksgiving means turkey eating to so so may people, and that makes us really sad in this house, I still really love the holiday.  All the hoopla and pomp, autumnal foods, flavors, and smells, family, kitchen hanging, squash, brussel sprouts, pumpkin pie, the whole nine.

Pregnancy Weight Loss: 1 Month Postpartum

[November 15]

So…the short end of it is this: the first two weeks were way easier than the last. We’ve been doing the dance of figuring out each other’s quirks and falling into a routine.  The last few days have been great!  The week or so before that, not so. Bar is a fantastic baby.  She’s sweet [...]

Healthy, Vegan Cookie Baking

[November 14]

In the midst of the madness, I found a moment the other day to bake some pumpkin cookies.  With all the nursing I’ve been doing, and the superhealthy eating, I’ve been craving some sweets.  And although there are great vegan baked goods options in my hood, they’re not always the most healthful (think margarine, sugar, [...]

Sleep oh how I miss thee…

[November 10]

So we’re coming up on 4 weeks postpartum and the sleep deprivation is catching up to me.  I was superlucky to heal fast from the delivery and was on a real high for a couple weeks after Baby Bar’s arrival.  I was feeling great and energetic and definitely doing too much trying to make up [...]
