Read MoreHi Mamas! I’ve recently been trying to come up with more breakfast foods for Liam other than fruit and Puffs. Don’t judge me, he is absolutely obsessed with them.

Read MoreI love making Liam’s food because of the obvious health reasons (you know exactly what’s in the food you’re making), financial savings (one veggie/fruit goes a long way!), and how creative I can get with each purée. It’s actually a lot of fun to come up with different flavor combinations! Liam is an excellent eater — […]

Read MoreLast Sunday, Joe and I went apple picking with friends in North Salem, New York. The orchard was bustling with activity, even at 10 A.M. so early in the season: fresh donuts, wood fired pizzas, lemonade and cider stands, pumpkin pies, and live country music. After wandering around the farm store, we grabbed our bags and strolled through […]
Read MoreBreastfeeding for as long as possible is my priority. Since my first day postpartum, I have been drinking Fenugreek tea (this one) and eating a healthy diet of protein, carbohydrates, and veggies.
