Gentle Methods: Baby Sleeping Through The Night!
As with my post on cloth diapering, this post is written due to popular demand. I’ve sent basically the same long message to many friends and acquaintances after they’ve followed my [and Harvey’s] journey from waking up countless time at night (yes! countless! some nights I lost count after 14) to sleeping 12-13 hours at night. From birth, Harvey would wake up on average every … Continue reading Gentle Methods: Baby Sleeping Through The Night!
CLOTH NAPPIES 101
I’ve been asked so many questions about cloth diapering since we’ve began this journey with Harvey. I’ve done numerous videos about it on my youtube channel, but thought it may be more straightforward to write a blog post on the generalities of cloth diapering. This will give you an overview on how to get started. I will give you a brief list of the essentials … Continue reading CLOTH NAPPIES 101
First Father’s Day! … and it was a posh one!
I wouldn’t have thought that 2015 would be our first year for Father’s Day! So much has changed just in the past year! But I love everything about our life! I love that I have a husband who is a fantastic father. He is so patient with both me and Harvey. He is strong for us both when we aren’t, and he’s been so supportive … Continue reading First Father’s Day! … and it was a posh one!
Why Can’t We All Work From Home?!
Today is Monday. I have never really liked Mondays. But I especially don’t like today. We just had a fabulous 10 day holiday. While 10 days may not sound like a long time, the past ten days has truly felt like forever. The best part about it was that we got to spend ten days as a solid family of three… not interrupted by daddy leaving … Continue reading Why Can’t We All Work From Home?!
‘Oh, just wait until…’ … Can’t we just celebrate together
One thing I’ve noticed since getting pregnant is the amount of “warnings” people give to you surrounding birth, babies, children, etc. I don’t understand why people automatically “prepare” you for the hardest stages of parenthood and hardly ever talk about the simple and unexplainable pleasure and love that will overflow your heart. I have felt like I couldn’t simply be excited or even have an … Continue reading ‘Oh, just wait until…’ … Can’t we just celebrate together
The Nap Time Struggle…
So… let’s talk about baby naps… They’re the best thing and the worst thing in the world!

Favourite Cloth Diapers! [updated]
Now that sweet Harvey is seven months old, we’ve finally achieved “stash happy” status! We’ve added, subtracted and tweaker our cloth diaper stash to our essentials! We have two categories when it comes to cloth diapers and a sub-category… We have day and night diapers and at home and out diapers…. We use totally separate day and night diapers because the day ones wouldn’t be … Continue reading Favourite Cloth Diapers! [updated]
Harvey’s (and mummy’s) 6 month update!
It seems like just yesterday our life was totally different and it was only us two (Tom + Andrea)… It’ so true when people say “your whole life is going to change when your baby is born”. Everything changes! OVERNIGHT! Some changes are very fun and easily adaptable while others have been a bit hard to adjust to. But of course, it goes without saying that everything … Continue reading Harvey’s (and mummy’s) 6 month update!
