In the milk department..
Last week my milk supply seemed to take a huge dive. This totally blindsided me because I’ve always had a bit of an oversupply problem and protecting against supply issues when on the Total Elimination Diet (TED) didn’t occur to me. Well, it should have!

After weeks of practicing you are finally able to get your hands into your mouth, though sometimes it’s by way of your far head first!
This week is also a sad one for me because it’s the week I [...]

We have officially crossed over to the dark side.. well, actually the more colorful side and given in to the the world of fisher price and plastic primary colors, lights and sounds when we purchased an exersaucer at a consignment sale this weekend. We also bought to fabulously loud and hideous tummy time mats, [...]

For the first time..
I start work again full time on Monday, today I left him at daycare for a few hours for a trial run.. I miss my little monkey :(
I wonder if he misses me? I’m not even convinced he knows who I am yet, I guess that’s better than leaving him when he’s [...]
