Have a look at what Mr. Postman brought for littlepixie last week, a beautiful Nest hatchling sling so she can carry her dollies/bears around. I entered a giveaway a few months ago at Mama Speaks, and won, but my poor little hatchling got lost in the post
Ashlee of Nest Baby Slings and Mama [...]

Today I’ve been inspired by Danielle at New Mommy Rant to continue my virtual housekeeping. I checked for and repaired deadlinks 2 weeks ago so they should be grand, I still have to divide my blogroll into easier-to-manage sections, I have a few new blogs to add to it. I had a look at other [...]

I’ve been following a thread on MDC where people have been adding links to their favourite breastfeeding images, be they photos, paintings, sketches, statues, advertisements, public awareness campaigns or jewellery.
But as with all threads on such busy forums, this one will eventually start to slip into the archives, so I thought I would take [...]

My latest post for API Speaks, this one’s for all the wonderful dads!
I’ve been thinking recently about how important Attachment Parenting is to fathers.
Many men seem to feel helpless and left out when it comes to the whole process of pregnancy, birth and those early weeks with a new baby. Mother and baby are like [...]

Steph over at Adventures in Babywearing is hosting a little mini-carnival to let everyone share their slings! Littlepixie is getting heavy and prefers to run around now so I don’t use mine as much as I used to but here is a peek at them… each is well-loved and has served us well!

Littlepixie has started carrying her dolly around in a homemade sling, she holds dolly against her chest and I tie a muslin cloth around them.
Then Littlepixie walks around patting dolly’s head and singing to her. After a while they sit in the pirate ship and LP lowers dolly’s head down a bit so she can [...]

My latest post for API Speaks, it’s a follow on from this post from last year!
I’m the type of person that likes to be active about the things I am passionate about. In parenting spheres my passions include “extended” breastfeeding and carrying my child, usually in a sling. I remember when littlepixie was tiny, I [...]

Another rainy afternoon, a teething littlepixie asleep in my arms (she’s too cute to put down on the bed) and me relaxing at the computer with a well-deserved cuppa tea.
I have decided to tidy up my blog. Just a few bits of virtual housekeeping. I actually got around to writing an about me page, there’s [...]

Allow me to indulge myself, if only for a moment, and moan a bit. I’m doing it here because there are two responses everyone else gives me and I’m not in the mood for them, you can probably guess the responses before I share the problems, the responses are… drumroll please….

My latest post on The Veggie Blog, reposted here for your enjoyment!
Me again, I’ll be posting here every so often with some random thoughts vaguely connected to being a vegan parent and raising vegan children. My daughter is 18 months old, so I don’t have huge swathes of experience yet, but I will offer up [...]
