One thing we all share as mothers, is the will of giving our kids the absolute best we can. I’m sure that every one of us wish to be the best possible mom to our children. I have never questioned my own choices as much as I have since I had my daughter. There is nothing I want more for her than to feel safe, loved and grow
I was crying in the chair, not being able to look at the nurse as I was very well aware of my 28 years of age and the fact that I should not be crying out of my fear for needles. It was one shot, 2 seconds, I knew it. I knew it wouldn’t hurt as much as I imagined it would, but I just couldn’t help it.
There’s few times in life that I have felt the need of prepared food more than during the postpartum period. I’m sure there’s some new moms that do have the time and ability to cook up a feast after birth, but I’m sure preparing for not being that mom won’t do any harm. You will just have a few extra meals cooked for you. And if you really
I got in contact with Lori at the very end of her pregnancy and our photo session took place when she was 38 weeks pregnant if I remember it correctly. Let’s be completely honest here for a moment. Our meeting started off a little bit.. well, weird, as I awkwardly rolled out of the car in front of Lori’s feet. This was after I tried to climb from
I recently stumbled over this idea of a sensory bag online, and I absolutely love it. I wish I had tried it when Lea was little. Tummy time can be challenging at times, some babies just hates it and gets frustrated. This idea might help you keep baby occupied and get some time in on their tummy. It is a great sensory game for the little one, feeling
A year ago today, we got to meet you for the very first time Lea Dida. After 41 weeks of pregnancy, 35 hours of labor and 3 hours of pushing, you finally landed on my chest. And the craziest thing with labor is that, just like so many before me has said, as soon as the baby comes out – everything stops. The pain disappeared, the exhaustion somehow
Having a baby can be expensive. There’s a thousand baby items out there and they are all telling you that you need them, right? And we all know that if someone tells us that we need something, it’s easy to believe that it is in fact essential to get it. I believe that we don’t need nearly as much as we are told that we need. I can’t
The summer is rolling in with warm and sunny days, which naturally means that it’s time to get that sunscreen out. If you’re anything like me, putting any kind of cream on your baby’s skin makes you hesitate a little and think. That perfectly smooth and soft skin of a baby is without doubt sensitive, and I want to know that the sunscreen I choose isn’t packed with
I’m just gonna admit it, I am a total stroller junkie. I love strollers. When I was pregnant I loved looking at strollers. Even though I already knew which stroller I wanted, I loved looking. The stroller was actually the very first baby item that I bought, and it was also one of the few baby items that I really wanted in a certain more expensive brand. But
I took an art class back in college. It was an introduction course and we used acrylic paint and explored a lot. It wasn’t what I had expected, I thought it would be a lot of sitting and looking at object and trying to replicate it. But mostly it was painting color scales, color wheels, making shapes and cutting and pasting. The last assignment of the semester was
