Fun With Sidewalk Chalk + School Supply GIVEAWAY!!!

Last month I wrote a post about the ban against my children from using chalk on the sidewalk outside our condo building.  I found the whole thing to be ridiculous and so silly and beyond absurd.  Who could possibly take offense to occasional sidewalk chalk drawings on a public city sidewalk?! Rose Art, an awesome […]


My Imaginary Cafe

I love my life just as it is.  My husband is wonderful and encouraging, my kids make me laugh and I find purpose in every day.  But, sometimes I daydream about what my life would be like if I chose a completely different path.  What would I be doing now if I took off for […]


Undercover Mama Nursing Shirt + GIVEAWAY!!

As I’ve written about before, breastfeeding is an important choice I make for my family.  Perhaps the best part about it is that Vivian’s food is always readily available no matter where we go.  I don’t have to worry about packing bottles or formula or water. Now that a feeding routine is established, breastfeeding is […]


Moby Wrap GIVEAWAY!!!

Last week I wrote all about my love of Moby Wrap, and this week I am hosting a fun GIVEAWAY for one! One lucky Homemade Mothering reader will be chosen at random to receive a Moby Original or Modern wrap. To enter, leave a comment here letting me know why baby wearing is important to […]


Moving with Moby

Little Vivian is such a snuggle bug.  She loves being held – some days I feel like I never put her down.  I have to admit that I actually really like it. Her skin is soft and the top of her head smells so good and her baby breath is so sweet and warm.  During […]


Sing To Your Baby + GIVEAWAY

My little family really loves music.  My parents gave us an awesome iPod speaker dock for Christmas, and not a day goes by that we don’t use it.  Our tastes range from Jack Johnson to Lady Gaga to the Disney station.  I’ve found that sometimes all it takes are some catchy tunes to settle rambunctious […]


My New Favorite Nursing Bra

As I have written about before, breastfeeding is an important choice I make for myself and my family.  While it can take a few weeks for mom and baby to get the hang of it, once a routine is established breastfeeding is wonderfully easy and convenient.  I am so grateful it has worked out for […]


Taking my Takeya Water Bottle Along + GIVEAWAY

I don’t think I am a judgmental person – I firmly believe that God made all of us different because we are all special.  Although I live a certain way, I don’t expect everyone to live like me.  That would be foolish!  However, I am pretty judgmental when I see someone drinking out of a […]


Sweet Dreams with our ArmsReach Co-Sleeper

Four weeks ago I wrote about our search for an ideal sleeping set-up for our then un-born baby.  Flash forward 29 days and here I am writing an update to that post.  Much to my delight, the ArmsReach Co-Sleeper Bassinet we settled on has been a wonderful addition to our room. As my husband says, […]


Little Lovey – as Captured by Naja Lerus Photography

My sweet baby girl is already three weeks old.  I know she’s still a newborn, but I can’t believe how fast the time is going.  Her beautiful little face is filling out, her neck is getting stronger and she’s spending more time awake and alert.  Life with a newborn is terrifically exhausting, but at the […]
