Hey everyone. I’m guest posting over at Code Name Mama today on the Joys of Breastfeeding a Toddler. Please go check it out! Update on Us I can’t thank you enough for all your kind words yesterday.

Life on Autopilot
Today I was planning to announce an awesome giveaway . . . probably my favorite so far. Unfortunately, our buyer backed out yesterday and I am a mess. My midwife will be here soon for my 39 week checkup. She’ll ask me how I’m doing, and I won’t lie. I’m shutting down emotionally. I am …
Does I Win = You Lose???

Thought you’d be interested in this update: Never again will that lake outside my window hinder me from my preferred exit on co-op days. This week I bought a pair of almost knee-high wellies from Target. Too bad no one is around at 3am to see how totally fashionable I am crawling out my window!

Originally, we were going to start a third blog for all our family stories.
