Last night J and I decided to dress Claire in her take-home outfit to see how it would fit her now, at 6 weeks old. (She was positively swimming in it when we brought her home from the hospital, as even premie clothes were too large on her for the first week of her life.) […]
I haven’t craved much spicy foods since I got pregnant (the horror!), and I have continued to stay away from the stuff while breastfeeding. That being said, I am a connoisseur of spice/hot sauces and my all-time favorite remains sriracha sauce. It is precisely for this reason that I believe this updated food pyramid to be awesome: […]
Claire has had thrush on and off for about a month now, (I don’t know why doctors prescribe Nystatin when it only works in about 50% of thrush cases) and it looks like it’s spread to my boobs too. So now I am battling both thrush and mastitis. Perhaps I had thrush first which caused the […]

I know that introducing Claire to Comang and his adjustment to no longer being the “baby” of the house will be difficult, but I am determined to make it work. So when Heather first contacted me about possibly writing a guest post on the addition of babies to households with pets, I jumped at the […]

J is convinced that Claire is the cutest baby in the world. “How can you look at her and not think that she’s the cutest baby ever? I dare you to show me a cuter baby!” My parents and in-laws all agree with him and are always marveling over their grandchild. And once again, I […]
I like books, gadgets, spicy food, and art. I dislike shopping, hot weather, and the laws of entropy. Although I am a self-proclaimed computer nerd, I still have a love for handbags and makeup... and I am always teetering on high heels. To learn more about me, visit the "About" page.
