Being a parent for the first time is no joke. I don’t envy those of you holding tiny babies right now that are going through this brand new. While my postpartum recovery seems to get worse after each baby, the babies themselves? They keep getting easier. Also, I think I just keep getting better at […]
It’s been a long while since I’ve blogged about how we plan to use cloth diapers on here. I have some really old posts in my archives from when I first cloth diapered my oldest- EIGHT YEARS AGO. Holy cow. In some ways, a lot has changed, but what hasn’t changed is that I’m STILL […]
I have loved cloth diapers since I had my first baby nearly 8 (!!) years ago, and I’m so stoked contributor Suzanne Davis of BeBehBlog.com joined this year’s Make Cloth Mainstream challenge! This is a super awesome peek into a day in the life for those of you who are curious about cloth diapers and […]
This time of year has evolved for me as I’ve gotten older. I take stock more, thank more, and I buy…. less. What I do buy, well, I try to support small and independent shops as much as I can. I’ve done the thing where I buy the super clearance deals from the big boxes […]

Yesterday I unveiled the shiny new blog design, and now I show you what’s up my other sleeve. A fancy new YouTube channel! You can check it out and subscribe here. The big dream is to upload new videos 1-2x a week, but it may take a while to settle into my groove, especially during […]
“How may of you are the parent you thought you’d be before you had kids?” That’s the question I opened with last weekend when I spoke about giving ourselves permission to change at the Great Cloth Diaper Change in Denver, presented by Kanga Care. Nobody raised their hand. Shocker. Photo by Swinson Studios, Denver Sometimes […]
In How-Is-This-My-Life news, I am going to be the official Guinness World Records Witness for the Great Cloth Diaper Change in Denver this April 26th! Bucket list be like… 127. Officially Witness a Guinness World Record check! One of the first parenting decisions I made before Kendall, my first baby, was born was to […]
I’m extremely fortunate. So many diaper companies send me cloth diapers to try out on my babies. We have way more than we need for Lowell. So these are on their way to find a new home with a family who can’t afford to buy them for their baby(ies), a family that has to […]
This weekend, Scott finished up a couple barn-style doors on a track that he pieced together completely on his own, based on some inspiration online. This man. I don’t dare tell him he CAN’T swim the Atlantic Ocean for fear of him actually proving me wrong. I’m ashamed of how little faith I had in […]
