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 [...]

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 [...]

I had a look at the book we bought when littlepixie was born, you know the type, it goes through their development by age and says “your baby can now see 1 metre in front of them” that type of thing. Haven’t looked at in ages, mostly because it was hidden in the mysterious [...]

Littlepixie’s top two teeth are well through now and getting longer every day. I have noticed in the last day or two that when she nurses I can feel her two top teeth resting against my skin. It’s not sore, it’s just an odd sensation, they feel a little sharp just resting there! When [...]

You all know that myself & Mr. HPP believe wholeheartedly in cosleeping, babywearing, extended breastfeeding and most of all treating littlepixie with the same respect and love that we treat each other with.
It’s not the easiest parenting route, it can seem overwhelming at times, but the rewards are endless. Being able to nourish your [...]

Not books you read while travelling, this is about books that actually do the travelling themselves. You read a book, register it with Bookcrossing.com and then set it free.
Leave it on a park bench, at a coffee shop, at a hotel on vacation. Share it with a friend or tuck it onto a bookshelf at [...]
