My Nesting Pillow

My favorite item today is my "Blessed Nest Organic Nesting Pillow". I didn't own a nursing pillow for Ellie. I just used pillows to help me nurse her and I didn't think I was missing anything. This time around I was fully prepared to use pillows again . . . until I won the Born Green giveaway back in March. I was sent the Nesting Pillow and have enjoyed using it these past (almost) 4 weeks of nursing Josiah. It's like a mini bean-bag and Ellie even enjoyed laying her head on it today to watch a movie. I've used it to prop Josiah up as well. I really like the way it can change shape and you can change it's "shape" depending on what kind of support you need.

Moby Wrap

I think the next series of blogs that I do are actually going to have a theme . . . I'll call them "my favorites". I'll be writing about my favorite baby & mommy products.

Since I'm sitting here w/ Josiah wrapped to my body w/ my Moby wrap I'll write about that first. He LOVES to be held and since I need my hands free to get anything done the Moby wrap is super handy! I can change Ellie's diaper w/ him - in the Moby wrap. I can make myself (& Ellie) lunch and eat it too - in the Moby wrap. I can do my laundry - in the Moby wrap. I can even go to the bathroom - in the Moby wrap!!

my little man

Josiah is SO different than Ellie was at this age. He is just a little man . . . he even poops like a little man. He grunts and makes a series of farts until he's all done. We were busting up in the middle of the night as it took him a good 10 minutes before he was done grunting. Sometimes I over-estimate his "done-ness". I won't go into details.

updates

I know it's been awhile since I've written anything. Been a bit busy trying to learn how to mother 2 kids, not just one! I feel like I'm constantly juggling!

I have a website up for our family. You can check it out @ http://web.mac.com/shinelikestars77

I have a page for Ellie & for Josiah. It's mainly to keep faraway relatives and friends updated on the happenings of our childrens lives. Hopefully you'll enjoy it too. I also have updated pics on my photo gallery so check those out too!
