finally! videos!

Well it took FOREVER to get all the videos from the past 3 months off our camera… It took about 40 hours, but they are all onto the computer now. And I figured out how to convert them and upload to YouTube. Yay! :-) All the Savannah videos can be found in this playlist. A few of my favorites: Splash! Bathtime :-) This video is especially fun because whenever we play it on the computer, Savannah laughs and giggles when…

building your blog traffic

building your blog traffic

Okay I am not really one to talk about blog traffic, seeing as how I don’t have a high-profile blog. But, I’ve been in this world for about 6 years now, and I’ve picked up a few things along the way.

This makes me get all mushy and romantic, thinking of all the fun times we’ve had together. It also signifies the time spent together and going places…

the joys of solid food

the joys of solid food

We started Savannah on solids last week. We started with some rice cereal mixed with breastmilk, which she took pretty well. It was really liquidy at first, so after a few spoonfuls, I put it in a bottle and she finished it off eagerly. I did the same the next day, and then after that I mixed it with water and kept it the consistency of grits (so, not as liquidy). This stayed on the spoon much better and was…
