I know we’re still in summer and there’s still quite a while left of it but guys seriously I am dying for autumn over here! I live for the fall. Oh the vibrant colours. Oh the crisp air. Oh the cozy, cozy sweaters. I miss autumn. I wish I could live somewhere where it was… Continue reading Fall Bucket List
I usually blog about my son or my day to day activities but rarely do I blog just about me! So, I thought I would do a little “Get to Know Carly” post for today! I actually used to HATE my name. Like really hate it. Carly isn’t a very common name, however; there was… Continue reading A Little Get To Know Me!
Trips to the park with Nate Splash pads on super hot summer days Nap time snuggles with my favourite little guy Junk food and movie nights with Kurt Getting into bed with clean sheets and/or shaved legs Play dates with two of my favourite moms and their baby boys Watching Nate interact with other kids/babies… Continue reading A List of Happiness: Part Two
A few months ago I decided I would start trying to make my own baby food. Nate was at the age where it’s recommend you start introducing solids into an infant’s diet so I thought to myself “Why don’t I just make my own food? It’s probably faster and cheaper than buying jarred food.” Well,… Continue reading Homemade Baby Food Update!
In my opinion, some of the best family days you can have are the days when you don’t actually plan anything and just decide spur the moment to head out somewhere. This morning after waking up super early (thanks Nate!) Kurt asked if we were ready to “go out”. I looked at him sideways and… Continue reading Spontaneous Trip To Cobourg!
I only have two months left with Nate alone! How is this possible!? *insert ugly cry face right here* Yesterday I had the sudden realization that in just two short months I will be returning to work. Yes. I have almost been off for an entire year! How is that even possible!? I originally went… Continue reading Two Month Count Down Is On!
This has got to be the best summer I’ve had in a long time! Since I work two part time nursing jobs, I usually end up working every single weekend which sucks considering Kurt only works Monday-Friday. So for the past 2-3 years, it’s felt like I haven’t really gotten to enjoy any quality time… Continue reading Ah, The Summer So Far!
If I could visit one place every year for the rest of my life, it would probably be Nashville, TN. I absolutely LOVE it there. I haven’t had the good fortune of visiting a lot of places but when Kurt and I took a road trip to Nashville for our honeymoon in 2013, I immediately… Continue reading Nashville, TN!
Well, baby Nate had his nine month check up today (whelp!) and I’m proud to say he’s doing awesome! He’s roughly 20 lbs now; putting him in the 50th percentile for weight (which is where he’s been all along) and he’s 28.5 inches long. He dropped slightly in the height percentile but honestly, looking at… Continue reading Nine Month Check Up!
Several blog posts ago I talked about how Nate had suddenly decided he no longer needed to sleep at night. He was waking up multiple times throughout the night to feed or to play and nothing I tried seemed to help him stay asleep. This went on for a few weeks until FINALLY he was… Continue reading Ahhhh, yet another sleep strike!
