Miracle Monkey
Tuesday, November 18th, 2008

I’ve been a little obsessed with play kitchens lately. I’ve seen a lot of really great homemade kitchens out in the interwebs. I sent a few links to my mom, hoping that she and my dad would get inspired and design a play kitchen for Isadora. I thought they might be able to build one [...]

Izzy likes to hang out in her high chair while Mitch is getting a bottle ready for her or when I’m cooking dinner. We’ll be introducing her to solid foods in about two weeks. We’re going to start off with Happy Bellies Organic Brown Rice Cereal. When she’s ready for fruits and veggies, I’m expecting [...]
