I’m a Momma first, and a Customer later
This morning, I was feeling a little cooped up. It was rainy and dark, and my baby girl slept in until almost 11. I decided that this was as good a day as any to go shopping. My husband needed more work clothes and I needed to figure something out for dinner. I’m a cheapskate, […]
3 Months of Cloth Diapering
I was going through photos on my desktop and noticed I had this one just sitting there. It’s from the All About Babies & Kids Expo in Houston, held back in July. By this point, I had been cloth diapering only a month, and had been in touch with Sara at Kissaluvs, to get permission to post […]

Baby Shower Gifts : Nursing Cover
I’ve been going crazy making gifts for a baby shower. One of the things that I needed for myself (or thought I did, until I realized I have finally become nursing without a cover – still concealed, though) was another nursing cover. Not sure what happened to mine… Anyway… found an awesome tutorial on Sew Much […]
