I am 5 months old now and I just started eating solid foods. I love to eat. Pears are really yummy!!

So I lucked out for about three and a half months with a super easy baby and great sleeper. He’s still an easy baby, but the great sleeping, not so much anymore. At first I thought it was because he was sick, then I thought growth spurt, now I just don’t know. Jett recently started waking up in the middle of the night anywhere from 1 – 3 a.m but usually closer to 3. I tried putting in the pacifier,...

Ok this may sound silly, but I feel like I’m pulling out the big guns now, having to pack my 3-year-old’s lunch 4 times a week for school.  I never have a problem figuring out what to give him for lunch when we are home, but now that I have to think about it ahead of time and make sure that he’ll eat it, I feel the pressure. Monday will be my first day packing lunch for Jax. I’m trying...
