My Big Girl Turned 3!

So, seeing as I’m officially a hot mess mama, I’m just getting around to posting a did bit about my gorgeous girl’s 3rd Birthday this past Sunday. Avi woke up and said: Mama, I’m big now.  My hands are big, my feet are big, I’m a big girl now, right?!? It totally melted my heart. [...]

Baby Bar’s Birth Story

  Let me start by staying this has been the most unbelievable week.  Regardless of a wild labor, serious lack of sleep, juggling baby and Avital, I’m elated and smiling all day every day. Avital is beyond adorable with her baby sister, Bar is an incredibly easy and delicious baby, and Richie has proven over [...]

Stone Barns

A few weeks ago on a Sunday afternoon we took a trip up to Stone Barns with my parents to get Avi some face time with animals and a good amount of fresh air for all of us. It was my first time there and I was thoroughly impressed.  While the farm and restaurant are far [...]

miYim Organic Baby Toys

Eco Baby= Hot Stuff

I snagged this pic of Avi this weekend and thought: Now that’s a blog post! Although as she gets older it’s harder and harder, I do my best to buy Avi as much of her gear from eco-friendly materials.  When she was an infant, her closet was filled exclusively with organic cotton clothing, but unfortunately [...]

Grace from Patemm Offered Us An Amazing Give Away!

After writing that post about baby basics (you can find it here), my awesome friend Rachael realized that she knew both me (duh) and Grace from Patemm and was kind enough to make the connection.  I’ve gotten to know Grace a bit since then and I must say she’s superlovely and totally impressive.  Here’s a [...]

Cloud B- Sleep Is Precious

Sleep is precious, so are little ones.  Wanna know what’s not?  When little ones don’t sleep! Avi’s been a really good sleeper from day 1.  We’ve been superlucky in that.  Napping has been a whole nother ball game though!  Until very recently, she was not in a routine of napping regularly.  She’d fight it and [...]
