Cloth diapering update?
So, I’ve been cloth diapering Viv basically her whole life. She’s 19 months old. How’s it going? I have zero regrets. Im so happy for the money saved and honestly the cuteness of the diapers have brought me a lot of joy during low points. And the washing and storing, etc? Basically it’s like second…

Even though nursing is crazy hard at first and takes up a ton of time (I’m 20 mins into a nursing session as I type) it has a ton of perks. On top of being convenient and honestly having a nutritional content that formula hasn’t been able to match, there are other uses for your…

I hated school because I never wanted to take work home.
Writing about my anxiety helps me make light of daily stresses and feel more grateful. I was a little hesitant to publish this one, but here goes nothing: Picture it: Huntington 2011 (i love golden girls 😂). One of my first thoughts when i decided to hustle up some summer classes and finish my BS…
