52 of Me: Week 5
It’s been a week of milestones: first time Fi stayed the night elsewhere first time I attended a WordCamp conference first time I wore a MailChimp monkey cap Well, the last one isn’t as much of a milestone. Moving on… … Continue reading
52 of Me: Week 2
When I look back, I find the ordinary and routine moments of the day make the best memories of baby girl. The morning wakeup, snack time, the snuggle before she’s tired and ready for a nap, bath time… Playing with … Continue reading

Yesterday was heavenly. After that 2.5 hour nap during the day, she still cried off and on while I ran the bedtime routine. Once I started singing the last song of the night, she cried even harder and after 5 … Continue reading
Sleep Training Weekend – Day 8
