Since having sweet E, I have been shocked at how quickly issues spring up between mamas…and how quickly a small parenting decision can come between good friends. I loved this article from Steady Mom; the title says it all, “I don’t know what I’m doing and neither do you…”.

As long as we’re doing the best that we can with the physical and emotional tools provided, we can cast off that mommy-guilt. Let’s surround ourselves with mamas who can support us despite our differences…this mama-thing is hard enough without fighting each other, too.

Night On The Town

A quick trip to Hastings to look at books and walk around. Those baby-blues make me weak in the knees.

Changed Plans

When our zoo plans were cancelled due to high winds, we ordered take-out, made a floor bed, and watched a movie.
