#Fluffmail Friday! So we've had a rough week, feverish sick baby, ER visit, sleepless nights (and days), cancelled plans, BUUUUUUT fluff mail makes it all better right? 😉 I think so.

You guys! I am super excited to have recently been invited to be a part of the Soul ambassador program!
Texas Bugs
WHY ARE TEXAS BUGS SO BIG? I don't even know what this is but I know I'm going to be outside forever. Seriously, we have to burn the house down now. :kiddingnotkidding:
Rucksacks and Back Naps!
Rucksacks and back naps! As some of you know I've gotten hooked into an amazing local babywearing community since the middle of my pregnancy. Not only are these folks super supportive and fast becoming friends but I am learning so much about wrapping, carrying, and all the benefits that go with. Right now I'm focused on learning how to back carry. Today I tried a new finish and for the last two days simply having Trent on my back has equalled pretty decent naps. My kid, the sleepless wonder for the first three and a half to four months (night or day), is napping.

The reality for us is… Continue reading Welcome to the United States

A Tree for Me
I have some garden space to work with in the new house and in that new garden space I have some trees! I have no idea what to do with trees or even how to identify them. and so I will probably get to some research over Labour Day weekend. I'll also have to spend some… Continue reading A Tree for Me
Moving: The Good, The Bad, and The Other
No Easy Steps Sometimes life takes some unexpected turns. You work and prepare for something and then a curve ball happens and things aren't what you thought they would be. This seems to be the case a lot with us. From first meeting, to getting married, to immigration, to wedding, and relocation, we always seem… Continue reading Moving: The Good, The Bad, and The Other
