My Top Ten Picks for Registering ~ Part 1: Sleep

I have been struggling with how I wanted to share all the things that I feel are important buys for your little one. I was planning on creating one giant post about it with numerous sections on each topic. Then I realized that you may have to read for a week just to get to the bottom [...]

Can a Routine Be a Bad Thing?

My daughter started sleeping through the night when she was about six weeks old.  I remember everyone telling me that newborns never sleep, but hey, my kid was sleeping through the night and I was well rested… so what did they know?  When Chloe was around seven months old, she hit a major bump in [...]
