Wordless Wednesday: That’s Snow Way to Treat Your Child

Night Weaning Questions

I’m considering night weaning. Peanut is officially 22 months old and nighttime nursing is the only time I genuinely dislike nursing—mostly because she’s handsy at night and I’ve tried everything to stop it and she just continues. It’s gotten better since I wrote that post (mostly just better in my head), but it’s still very … Read more

Newsletter-22 Months

Hiya Peanut, Oh boy, we’ve had an eventful month! First off, there was Christmas. You LOVED Christmas. Honestly, you mostly loved unwrapping the gifts.

Rethinking Flu Vaccines

I spent a lot of time researching vaccines. I developed a detailed schedule specifically for Peanut after doing this research.

Wordless Wednesday: Merry Christmas

My Very Own Farmer

This is the second part of a two-part series. Catch up with Industrial Organic. As I read The Omnivore’s Dilemma, I quickly became enthralled with the idea of buying my meat directly from a farmer. I wanted to buy meat from a farm like PolyFace that let the animals live naturally. Cows roaming and grazing, … Read more
