Breastfeeding can be an amazing and wonderful experience. It can also be painful, heartbreaking, and a nuisance. After successfully breastfeeding three children, each for over one year, I hope to offer tips for both breastfeeding and pumping. If I help anyone make their breastfeeding journey a little easier then I will be ecstatic.

We recently threw a joint first birthday party for my daughter and my nephew (who were born only a day apart!). When brainstorming for the theme of the party we knew we needed a gender-neutral theme and wanted to keep it very inexpensive. “Wild One” met both criteria and was a smashing success. For ideas and tips on throwing a Wild One 1st birthday party keep reading!

If you think I’m going to give up ice cream once the weather turns cold you’re wrong. I enjoy ice cream all year round. These fun Halloween ice cream treats are not only tasty but great to make ahead of time for a party. They are sure to be a hit with kids (plus you could always make a boozy version for the adults!).

I realize I’ve been reading many historical books lately but it’s what I like and what’s popular! From a young girl living in Columbia fearing kidnapping and car bombs, to a young woman living it up in NYC during the ’40s, there is certainly a range despite my selections being mostly historical fiction. I hope you enjoy this month’s book recommendations!
