life lately

1. cloth diapering: we are in the process of switching from disposable diapers to cloth diapers! i couldn’t be more excited to try this out. we made the switch for a few reasons – cloth diapers are less expensive in the long run and better for the environment! more updates on this later.

   

2. adventures in homemade baby food: we started claire on solids about a month ago, right before she turned 6 months old. i’ve been making her food at home in bulk. basically, i cook up single ingredients (ex: butternut squash, peas, green beans, berries) and freeze them in ice-cube trays. once frozen, i pop the baby food cubes into freezer bags and defrost what i need overnight! it’s been so much fun trying out new flavors, textures and combinations. again, more on that later.

   

3. holiday fun! this is claire’s first christmas and i want to make it as magical as possible. i’ve already planned out our advent calendar and activities, purchased a few small gifts and hung the stockings. next up : christmas tree, decorating the house, baking cookies and having our friends and family over!
