Hailey at 14 Months Old

November 29, 2012

14 months old and getting more fun everyday.  I finally made the decision to enjoy each stage as it comes, instead of reminiscing about the days flying by. I tend to get nostalgic easily and want to make sure I focus on the thrill of the journey of parenthood so I don’t miss a moment. [...]

Goshhhhhhh, I’m behind again. Our little angel hit double digits on the 15th, turning 10 months old. Everyday she is becoming more and more of a little person.  Now that she is mobile (and quite the quick little crawler when she wants to be), diaper changes and putting on clothes is a challenge.

I receive emails every so often with Hailey questions, so after a few repeats, I find myself wanting to post about it. I love talking about what Hailey is up to because it helps me remember. If I didn’t write down everything that happens, I wouldn’t remember a thing and I’m only 7 months in! [...]

Our Adventure with Baby Led Weaning

March 27, 2012

or perhaps it should be called Hailey’s adventure into real foods, because it certainly has been a fun journey to watch her taste and explore foods for the first time, but let’s start with the basics.
