August is National Breastfeeding Month, and seeing as I'm currently in the midst of feeding my third little nursling, it seemed to be a fitting time to share some of my nursing essentials. These are the products and items that I have come to love during my nursing "career". I call it a career, because sometimes nursing honestly feels like a full time ... Read More

What's In My Diaper Bag
Maybe I'm nosey, but I love a good "What's In My Bag" post. I think it is so much fun to see what other people cram into their bags, and I've discovered some of my favorite products thanks to other bloggers sharing the contents of their purses. So, after a few requests to share what I tote in mine, today I'm spilling the beans (or the contents of my ... Read More
Binxy Baby Cart Hammock Review
Disclosure- This post is sponsored by Binxy Baby, however all thoughts and opinions are entirely my own.

Starting All Over Again
I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't anxious about welcoming another tiny human being into the world. It makes no difference that I had an entire 9 months to prepare for this endeavor, the nerves were still always there, and they were very, very real. The fear of going to labor with my second child was unavoidable, and yet it was significantly different than the fear I felt ... Read More
Preparation Makes Perfect
Image via www.kasia.labocki.com During my first pregnancy, I had this undeniable intuition that I was going to go into labor early. Low and behold, it turned out my intuition was right. Max arrived abruptly, a whopping 8 days early. At almost 32 weeks into pregnancy #2, I'm beginning to have that same gut feeling. Although, I know enough now to know that I'll never be ... Read More
