Noa turned 18 months a couple weeks ago. We are still breastfeeding, but I’m steadily trying to wean her off. I have just been trying to distract her, or replace it with a sippy cup when she asks for it. She doesn’t always enjoy that I say no, but we are getting better. Night time […]
Noa is officially ONE YEAR OLD!! I think this may have been the quickest year of my life. At Noa’s Doctor visit, she weighed 17lb 6.4ox and measured 27.24in tall. She wears 9-12 month clothes and size 4 diapers. She’s the busiest bee, getting into everything, exploring everything, eating everything… You can definitely tell that […]
Ivan James turned five this month! Ivan measured 3.28 feet tall and weighed 31.79 pounds. Hes a little guy like his mom. Ivan wears 3T clothes for the most part still, but is starting to get into some 4T. This fall we will probably have to size up in pants. Ivan’s favorite food is still […]
Noa is just one month away from her big birthday! I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t having a hard time with it. She’s getting so big. She’s basically running everywhere now. She loves peek-a-boo, chase games and music. She’s almost always happy and doesn’t really cry much at all. She still loves any […]
Noa Arlett turned 10 months old! She is growing like a weed. She is wearing 12 month tees and 6 month shorts but she could totally wear some of Amalia’s shorts in 12-18 month too. She’s still in size 4 diapers. She walks so well, keeping her hands to her sides now, she never crawls […]
Noa is NINE months old! She weighed 16 pounds at her check up and didn’t even cry when she had her finger poked for her cbc and lead level check. She wears 6 month onsies and shorts and 9-12 month tees. She is in size 4 diapers now and I think she will stay in […]
I can’t believe our Amalia Marie is THREE years old already! She is growing up so fast. She weighed 23 pounds at her doctors visit the other day. I think her little sister will soon surpass her. She wears 18-24 month clothes mostly, but has a few 2t things. Amalia is all potty trained and […]
Have you ever experienced racism? I am a young white female. I’ve never directly experienced racism, but my family has. My Latinos are technically white. They are white when you check the box on a piece of paper. There isn’t a brown option. Though they’re “white,” brown people still experience racism because of their ethnicity. […]
Noa is eight months old! I can’t believe that her birthday will be upon us before we know it. Noa doesn’t have an appointment for another month so I don’t know how much she weighs right now. She is in 6 month onsies and I got all of Amalia’s old clothes out and Noa can […]
I’ve been on a bit of an emotional down lately. I’m finding myself grieving the tiny baby stage of not only Noa, but all of my kids. It is such a strange bundle of emotions to wade through. I am one hundred and ten percent sure that we will not be having anymore children. But […]
