We love leather-soled shoes for new walkers, but for some reason they are hard to find these days. We’re discovering that there aren’t […]
Someone shared a meme about nursing their baby, and I saw that it was in honor of breastfeeding week last week. Oops. Guess I’ll share my story anyway. When I was pregnant, I Did All the Research. I knew I wanted to breastfeed my baby because “breast is best,” as they say everywhere all the […]

I don’t have a cell phone, so the internet is my connection to pretty much anything outside my house. David did make his phone into a hot spot so I could […]
