December 19, 2011

TweetI know there is a huge debate in the natural parenting community about Santa. Most natural parenting families don’t “do” Santa.

3-Year Olds Can Babywear Too!

June 7, 2011

TweetHow do I know that my girls love being worn? Because when I say we’re going for a walk, Zoë grabs her baby and nicely tucks her into her shirt so she can wear her too! It’s so nice to get little affirmations like this that you’re parenting style is, in fact, effective and appreciated. [...]

A Ghost in the Playroom

March 21, 2011

TweetThe last few weeks we’ve been struggling to get the girls to go into the playroom. Zoë insists that there’s a ghost in her playroom that scares her (and Kaylee won’t go play in there without Zoë). This is a new phenomenon for us—they used to love playing in their playroom. It doesn’t matter whether [...]

No More Babies in This House

March 4, 2011

TweetIt has been a couple months since Kaylee took her first steps. She was very cautious with learning to walk—different from Zoë who was all over the place very early. At soon as Kaylee turned one though, it’s like something just clicked with her, and she has been walking everywhere. She’s walking a lot more [...]
