motherhood – The Petite Mom

Dont touch my kids

In extension on a fellow mom friends blog Hands Off, I thought i’d too address an important issue that really, no one is talking about, the issue of strangers touching kids.

Food is everything in this household. Well, maybe this is just true for me, but we recently started London on solids and…she loves it! Parker was the worst ever when it came to eating his first foods, but London, she absolutely loves it. Everything I have given her has been a winner. She’s had, strawberries, avocado, banana, sweet potato, applesauce, apple sweet potato, apple mango and apple carrot. We spoon feed her or let her go to town with her Moss and Fawn Forage feeder and there has been zero refusal.

London’s NICU Birth Story

Alright.. so I have gone back and forth about sharing my birth story. It is very special to me and putting stuff like this out there into the public/online is scary because of how close it is to my heart. I do however feel that I read so so so many birth stories that went exactly as planned. Even though they are still completely wonderful and beautiful, I feel like it is important to have ones like this out there so us moms do not feel alone. Still extremely wonderful and beautiful, but also very scary and not expected.

Baby products I wish I knew about sooner

Mama’s (+ Dada’s) this ones for you.

Creating a baby registry was probably one of the most difficult things for me. There are soooooo many baby products on the market and it’s really hard to focus on what’s actually needed/helpful and what’s just “cool”. Especially trying to do all this while prego, forget about it! Continue reading Baby products I wish I knew about sooner

Happy New Year (2018)

Happy New Years lovelies! To sum up 2017 in a few short words is easy. But explaining how insanely difficult yet beautiful it has been, is much more hard. So I will say this… Being pregnant and becoming a mom, I am forever changed and better for it. And I am so, so dang grateful for all my accomplishments last year.
