It’s been 7 nights, some ups, some downs, but overall very positive and I am absolutely amazed to be able to write this but here it is…. Littlepixie is nightweaned!
We decided to attempt nightweaning to address some of my exhaustion issues, and (very surprisingly indeed) it has gone really well! We have had the most [...]

Just a little FYI….
Posted in Attachment Parenting, Babies, Breastfeeding, Children, Co-Sleeping, Family, Mothering, Parenting, SAHM, Toddler on 29 May, 2009 | 16 Comments »
Just in case anyone is wandering by and wondering “I wonder what I can say to my friend to make her understand that she is doing a wonderful job as a mother, and to let her know that I am there for her, and support her breastfeeding & cosleeping choices even though I really do [...]
Taking a wee break…
Posted in Attachment Parenting, Breastfeeding, Children, Family, General Musings, Mothering, Parenting, SAHM, Toddler, health on 17 May, 2009 | 12 Comments »
It seems a little bizarre to blog about the fact that I’m taking a wee break from blogging, yet here I am. So, yeah, I’m taking a wee break from blogging
I am too tired. I am. I haven’t slept more than 2 hours at a time in over 2.5 years, no I lie, [...]

Over the last week or so, Littlepixie has been asking to go up in “blue sling”. She has developed a love of back carries in our Manduca, so it will be joining us on our holidays, which should hopefully make our buggy-free days easier!
It is a really comfy sling, probably the comfiest we have and [...]
Three cheers for nursing toddlers!

You know sometimes how you just float along doing your thing, and you forget how truly amazing some of those things that you do are. Well I had one of those realisation moments today. I’ve been nursing LP so long now that it is second nature and I often forget how powerful our magic milk [...]

Littlepixie has a new favourite in the world of books, Topsy & Tim. They are published by Ladybird and are basically just little stories detailing the lives of two twins, Topsy & Tim.

I freely admit that I am often dazzled by the amazing playrooms that many mommy bloggers have. Waldorfian paradises with the most exquisite wooden furniture and play things. I don’t know quite how they manage it!
I tell myself that many of them have several children, so they may have built up the collection of beautiful [...]

Whether to laugh or cry, that is the question!
Posted in Attachment Parenting, Children, Family, Mothering, Parenting, SAHM, Toddler on 19 February, 2009 | 12 Comments »
It’s a situation that I’m sure most, if not all, parents have found themselves in, the moment where you stand there unsure if you are going to laugh or cry while chaos erupts around you.
Yesterday evening was one such evening…. Let me set the scene for you. There are a few main players:

Basically what the title says! If it looks like bread then all the better, I’m thinking of veggie pancakes and the suchlike!
