I just haven’t been on the computer much. Solo parenting + trying to make sure I see REAL PEOPLE in REAL LIFE = tired/busy/not home much. But awesome. Because that’s what happens when you have great friends.
Lots of starbucks baby dates happened. Here’s Anneliese and Kaitlynn.
Having a little baby squabble. Soooo cute. Like a slow motion bar fight.
I don’t know how Anneliese and I make soooo much laundry. Our clothes, towels, cloth diapers, kitchen towels, cloth napkins, baby blankets…. oh wait. I do know how we make so much laundry. But I’m good with it. We only make a bag of trash (or less) per week.
Here she is in her super-cute airplane pajamas. Pilots’ daughters gotta represent.
Trying very hard to crawl, and noticing the drawer knobs I so carefully picked out for her. I love this. Love watching her discover new things.
Cosleeping is wonderful and crazy all at once. Most nights, she ends up nursing nonstop for the second half of the night, nestled in my arm or draped over my body. A couple nights, I actually put her on the bed and scooted away once she fell asleep, which was awesome because I got to tummy-sleep. And while I’m NOT happy my husband is away, I now understand why cosleeping families want California King sized beds. Babies take up more room than you’d think! Perfect for me and her in a queen.
Anneliese is so helpful with chores like sorting out the junk mail for recycling.

Hi! I'm Emily. I'm a Navy wife and stay at home mom of two beautiful children. I cook simple, delicious, grain-free recipes, do crafts, decorate my home on a budget, and keep a happy household. I tandem breastfeed, babywear, cloth diaper, practice elimination communication, homebirth, and co-sleep, but I'm not a hippie.
on trash days we only have one bag of trash too. i get so mad when i see my neighbors trash. they are a family of 4 and like 4 bags of trash! we are a family of 3 with 1 bag. so much waste!!!
Anneliese is so cute. And smart. And awesome. And yeah we totally need a king. It’s like TIGHT. Ella has to be ON me basically and when she is ON me she is eating so yeah. All night.
