How We Named Our Baby Girl

On Nov 8, 2018Nov 8, 2018 By Eleanor Jasmin2 Comments

Naming your baby, especially your first, is equally as fun as it is difficult. With J being a teacher, this made naming our little girl an even longer process as most names I suggested, he'd taught a child who had sort of "ruined" that name for him haha. We did both agree we wanted a …

Our Co-Sleeping Story …

On Sep 28, 2018 By Eleanor Jasmin1 Comment

So, this is not a post I was expecting to be writing; my opinions about co-sleeping were very strong ... "I'm not doing it", "it's unsafe" and "if they start out if your bed, you'll never get it back". I'd never have thought J and I would have co-slept with P for the best part …
