My two childbirth stories could not be more different. When I was pregnant with my Charlie, I loved reading other people’s birth stories so I could prepare myself for what to expect. I also read books and took a childbirth preparation class. Despite thinking that I was prepared for the birth I wanted (epidural please!), […]

Mrs. Blue’s post about spending on traditions rather than presents last Christmas really stuck with me. Since then we’ve made a bigger effort to incorporate regular family traditions, and hopefully Charlie and Olive will have fond memories of them as they grow up. This past weekend was a family cultural day at Charlie and Olive’s […]

I’ve been putting the kids in these balacavas lately because it’s […]

It’s Friday hooray! We’ve had a nonstop cycle of everyone in our family getting sick the past month — scarlet fever, strep throat, and lots of fevers, runny noses, and coughs that linger for months.
