Since becoming a SAHM I find myself watching (way) more television than I ever have in my life. I’m talking like I can finish an entire season within two days while still watching other shows at night with Neil. This is a bad habit and not one that I want Edith to get used to. … [Read more…]
I guess some people might say we are lucky because Edith has always been a good sleeper at night. Most nights she will start with a 3-5 hour (sometimes but rarely a 7-7.5 hour) stretch and then is up usually twice to nurse. Now don’t get me wrong we have had a few nights of … [Read more…]

Around 80% of the time we spend 30-90 minutes getting her to sleep and then she sleeps 4-5 hours, nurses, sleeps 1.5-3 … [Read more…]
I’m currently trying to recover from a single parenting weekend so here is a highlight of Edith and my weekend in numbers: Naps: 6 <—crazy! Hours of sleep: 14 (My sleep between Friday, Saturday & Sunday) Cups of coffee: 4 Showers: 3 (Friday, Saturday AND Sunday) Baths Given: 1 Workouts: 2 Break downs (mine): 3 … [Read more…]
I knew from the beginning that I wanted to document my entire pregnancy with photos and weekly blog posts. I started to take photos around week twelve and write weekly blog posts around week 14 and by week 30 I decided I really wanted to create a pregnancy photobook. At first I was just going … [Read more…]
