“His Name Was Alan Kurdi”

A “refugee crisis” is something far away and remote.  Kenya.  Bangladesh.  Syria. Foreign.  Easily ignored. But this.  This is something different. This is a child. A child whose death has given a face to the millions of other children and adults around the world who are fleeing natural disasters and famine and war. A child posed as […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Kiss Kiss

The Story of a Bedtime

So tonight was fairly routine at the start… Pace has his snack while watching videos on the iPad. Shea reads Sasha a story and then nurses her before putting her to bed. Sasha immediately starts crying in her crib as she’s been doing lately. I go check on Sasha and she’s got a wet diaper […]

Sasha’s figured out how to get off her change table (well, the first half of the process – she still hasn’t managed to get all the way down!) I suspect it’ll only be a matter of time until she manages to scramble over the rail of her crib and come see us some night! 😉

Saturday Snap – Breastfeeding May Prevent Viruses (But Can Still Go Viral)

Shea recently entered a contest on Facebook run by a group who are trying to raise funds to create a breast milk depot in Regina (similar services exist in larger cities such as Calgary and Vancouver.) For the contest, a bunch of local breastfeeding advocates submitted photos of themselves and their babies into one of three […]
