Arthur just turned 15 months and we already have 5 (!) roundtrip flights under our belt, so I thought I would share a few things we've learned about traveling with a baby. First off, I will say that it does seem like there's a sweet spot for traveling with an infant who doesn't need to … Continue reading Traveling with a Baby/Toddler
Wow, it feels like such a long time has passed since the last update! The third trimester has been so interesting, as I expected. The first two are pretty straightforward - the first trimester was nausea and fatigue and lying low, the second was fairly normal energy and lots of dreaming about what's to come, … Continue reading Pregnancy Update – 3rd Trimester
