Flower Baby
| January 15, 2012 | Posted by Issa under Parenting |
Dylan was 2 1/2 months old in these photos, wearing a flowery onesie that won’t fit anymore when flowery weather rolls around again. These days he takes a lot of naps sleeping alone, but back here in August every sleeping moment was on either Joshua or me. Keep Reading
The Sunday to Forever: Dylan

The Sunday to Forever table of contents: 1. Acknowledgments 2. At Home 3. The Hospital 4. Dylan 5. Musings During the c-section, I think I felt when they pulled Dylan out. It felt like my insides were being turned inside out. Then I heard Dylan start wailing, and it was the most beautiful sound in the world. Until that moment, I must not have thought this was really going to happen. I never really believed… Keep Reading

The blog author suggested starting slowly so as not to get overwhelmed. Joshua and I agreed that that’s not really our method. We like to just jump on in when the time is right, picking things up as they come along.… Keep Reading
Deciding for Other People

On a parenting site I follow on Facebook, someone posed this question: “On the subject of goals, when you want to try a new idea for the family (grain-free, family cloth), is it a 50/50% decision with your partner or mostly one person’s idea?” Photo by edkohler Once you’ve got kids with another person, I understand that some things related to the kids are going to be a group decision. However, from the two examples… Keep Reading
