A pumpkin for punkins: Felt jack-o-lantern DIY

October 16, 2012 By Katrina

The words baby-proof and kid-friendly never meant as much as they did the day Beany became mobile. Suddenly all those pretty things that we carefully placed around the house in just the perfect spots had to be put up higher — or put away entirely.

Houston, we have a crib skirt.

September 1, 2011 By Katrina

It’s amazing the amount of preparation that comes into play during the last few months of this having-a-baby business. The last few weeks in particular have involved a flurry of thoughts and discussions about bottles and diapers, the merits of various binkies, the importance of breathable swaddling blankets and whether we really need to spring…
