Daddy Duty







I must say, I have a wonderful husband! Every other Saturday is Daddy/Daughter day. I get to go out with Diana by myself & he spends the whole day with Isis. This Saturday I had to go to an event as a UK College of Education Ambassador, so I left before she even woke up in the morning. Lewis had her all day! I didn't get home until 4:30!

He also does all her bath & bedtime stuff every night. I'm usually running around rinsing off cloth diapers or putting dirty clothes in the hamper. He really enjoys that time every night with her because he is at work all day. He always wants to cuddle with her when he's home and he'll usually change her diaper for me when he is home, too. He just does so much & I love it!

He was completely on board with the cloth diapers and even told me that yesterday when he had Isis for Daddy/Daughter day that he tried to see if she'd pee in the potty like with the Elimination Communication! He's just not scared of anything! He's dealt with diapers, spit-up, changing clothes, feeding her, cutting her fingernails, holding her after her vaccines, cleaning out her ears with a q-tip & using the nasal aspirator on her nose! I love it that he's totally hands-on! I felt like sharing some pictures I've taken with my phone! He's a cutie!!

10 on Tuesday: 10 Favorite 6 Month Pics

This is completely gratuitous, just me posting pictures of Isis, but my friend Hannah took some pictures of our family yesterday! She is such a great photographer & she is also going to be watching Isis for me in the fall when I start my student teaching. I feel so blessed to have her as a friend on top of the fact that she takes gorgeous pictures of Isis!! I also realized that I didn't put any of the ones where she is smiling in this post. This just means I'll have to post more another time! Get excited! (And this is not a great comment-grabbing post , but who cares? This is for the digital baby book!)

How to Efficiently Read Blogs

Have you ever been just completely overwhelmed by the sheer volume of blogs out there you can read? I have. Wow. So many fabulous people I'm interested in reading about! I love the stories, the humor, the pictures, the tips, the giveaways, the links, I just love it all! So I've found myself having to streamline my blog reading in order to better manage my time & make sure I hit the "must-reads" for me. Here's how I've done it: First of all, if you leave a comment on my blog or if you follow my blog, I will go to your blog & at the very least I will follow you on Google Friend Connect . This way the blog shows up on my blogger dashboard when I log in. I always look over the new posts that are there when I log in each day, but if you've looked at my Google Friend Connect page lately, you'll see that I follow a lot of people's blogs! So I had to come up with a more specific approach in addition to the blogger dashboard. This is where my Goog

5 Blogging Pet Peeves

Blogging pet peeves are obviously going to be different depending on the blogger or blog reader. I am not an expert, but I have been blogging for more than 3 years between this blog & my other one. So I've seen a lot of blogs & read a lot of tips. Here are 5 things from my perspective that will really help you as a blogger &  me as a reader. 1. Offer a full RSS feed Oh my goodness this gets on my nerves!! I don't know if people think that offering a partial feed will get people to click on their page more or something? But really all it does it gets most people from what I've seen to NOT subscribe or visit your blog at all. There are maybe 2 bloggers that I subscribe to their feed even if they don't offer a full feed & that's only because they email & converse with me regularly & in some way make up for the fact that I can't see their feed in my reader. So just offer a full feed.  There is some debate about the issue, but in every debate
