TT - Technology

Super quick post this week as I am swamped with work, our client had her bathroom demoed over the weekend and this was the first we had heard that she wanted to do it over. The conversation Monday morning went, "So Malcom (her contractor) said I would save about $700 if I demoed the bathroom this weekend, so I did it. Can you help me put it back together?" Wow :) I am thankful this week for technology.
It has its ups and downs, but most are up for this (part-time) working mama. I am able to work from home so I can capture these moments, literally!

Can you guess what she did, again??

Please excuse the messy bed :)

Quotes to Note

"We are often misinformed for navigating pregnancy, labor, and new parenthood in that we are often taught that we need the right stuff rather than the right people and support. The high-priced stroller isn't going to make dinner on day three postpartum and all the new baby clothes that are rapidly pooped on won't wash themselves. We need support in order to cope and make good decisions. We don't need matching satin crib bumpers and bed skirts; we need our mothers and fathers, we need our extended families and friends, we need our good friends, we need experienced midwives and doctors and pediatricians and educators and doulas and nurses." -Big Book of Birth

"If by too much care you spare them every kind of discomfort, you are preparing great miseries for them." - Rousseau

"...the gift to counteract that fear is that with your children you fall in love in a way that is bigger and fiercer and more powerful than anything you have ever known before." - Big Book of Birth

"...parents aren't soley focused on getting kids to eat their fruits and veggies. Rather they're interested in training their kids' appetites...... The French deliberately train their kids' appetite, emotionally, psychologically, and physiologically.....It is preferable to introduce only one fruit per day in order to allow the child to learn to appreciate the specific taste of each fruit." - French Kids Eat Everything

"You fall in love with your children in a way that you have never fallen in love before. It is deep, protective, fierce, unconditional love that grows and changes. It is a powerful shift in your life when you become a parent and realize that the world is officially not about you, that you have an obligation to the community around you, to the future, to your children, and to other people's children. Welcome to parenthood-its big, you are not trained for it, it is unpaid weary labor, and yet it is one of the most powerful, transformative journeys of your life." - Big Book of Birth

"The critical assumption is that while the baby has his own rhythm, the family and parents have rhythms too. The ideal, ....is finding a balance between these two."

-Bringing Up Bebe

"A bedtime routine becomes your baby's signal that bedtime is here. It invokes a conditioned response from baby: "Oh, its bedtime! I should be sleepy!"

A routine for the hour before bedtime is crucial in cueing and preparing your baby for sleep."
