life with a new baby
Another First!
Nathan started cruising today! He pulled himself up onto the coffee table, danced around for a little bit, and then shuffled his merry little way along the edge of the coffee table! For the very first time. AND I HAVE VIDEO!
It’s a little longer than the length of video I normally post (two minutes) but it took him a while to move down the coffee table to the recliner.
It’s so cute!

First visit to the dentist
about 1 week ago - No comments
Ok, so remember last time I talked about Nathan face-planting in a parking lot and knocking his two front teeth loose? Well, this post is about the ensuing dentist visit. Nathan hadn’t been to a dentist yet. It was something on our to-do list, but for some reason, I thought that kids didn’t need to More >
Little Nathan’s such a big boy
about 1 month ago - No comments
I’m so glad spring is here!! It’s been a warmer-than-normal winter here in Tennessee, so everything is blooming earlier. Which I like. Because I like spring. I feel all happy and spinning-around-in-circles giddy. I also like spring because it gives me this energy after enduring the drab slump of winter. I like to get my More >
Potty training, here we come
about 2 months ago - No comments
Big news in the house: Nathan is on the verge of being potty trained!! I’ve been working with him since last summer. Yes, it has taken MONTHS! I knew he was nowhere near ready, but I wanted to go ahead and introduce the idea to him. I didn’t push him and just let him get More >
Improvement!
about 2 months ago - No comments
You know how we’ve been having a bear of a time convincing Nathan to stay in bed at night? Well, you won’t believe this. Finally, after weeks of trying everything we could think of, there has been- gasp!- improvement! Nathan’s still getting up at night, but only 1-3 times as opposed to multiple times. When More >
Birthday boy!
about 2 months ago - No comments
Well, I had a doctor’s appointment yesterday concerning this ongoing neck and shoulder pain I’ve been having. I thought it was slowly mending itself, but then the pain flared up again. The stiffness and accompanying dull aching sensations in my whole shoulder and neck area was becoming unbearable. So anyway, my doctor thinks that I either More >
And the sleeplessness continues…
about 2 months ago - No comments
Well, there has been no improvement with Nathan getting out of bed at night. My child’s willpower has surpassed mine. Unbelievable. If I had a white flag, I would totally wave it. We’ve tried everything we could think of, but nothing has worked. Discipline, bribes, rewards, promises… nothing has thwarted his apparently indomitable desire to More >
Kids. Can’t help but love ‘em.
about 3 months ago - No comments
“NO! Nathan, get down from there!” I said as I grabbed Nathan as he stood on top of a Rubbermaid tub, mangling his window blinds in an attempt to look out the window. “You know better!” I said. As I set him down on the floor, he put his little hand on my shoulder and More >
Parenting is not for sissies
about 3 months ago - No comments
Well, there have been a few things happening around here lately. For one, my neck is slowly mending itself. I had called my doctor a week and a half ago to make an appointment, and the receptionist informed me that I wouldn’t be able to get in for 1.5 weeks due to my doctor going More >
Just thinking
about 3 months ago - No comments
I can’t believe my little boy has grown so much… sometimes it seems like such a long, long time ago that he was a little baby. Other times it seems like just yesterday. I wonder how it will feel in ten years. Or twenty. Or thirty. I know I’m really going to miss him being little More >
A pain in the neck
about 3 months ago - No comments
Owwwww. And I do mean OWWwwWWwww. Yes, I am complaining. My neck is killing me, thanks to my extremely strong-willed toddler. I initially hurt my neck in December… it sucked, but compared to how I feel now, the pain was more of an aggravating nuisance. I was trying to get Nathan into his car seat and he bucked up More >

It’s really neat watching him grow
It’s kinda sad because it means he’s growing up, but at the same time, it’s exciting.

You are so lucky to be able to capture all these first moments! Good for you mama! Congrats!

It takes a lot of video and a lot of pictures to capture those moments… I carry my camera around non stop and take loads and loads of video and pictures in an attempt to capture any firsts. Sometimes I capture them… but most of the time, I manage to miss them!

Yay, Nathan! And look out, mom…we have cruising happening around here, too, and it’s amazing how futile our previous baby-proofing has turned out to be, now that he’s got that extra height.

I know, totally futile! His arms are apparently longer than I thought. I don’t know how that child reaches some of the things that he does!
