sugar mama: April 2007
http://sugarmama2.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 27, 2007. Challenges in week 3. Wednesday, April 25, 2007. Our baby girl is growing. At Monday's checkup, Sara had gained 5 ounces since the previous Thursday! Maybe I'll try 5pm and 8pm, then the 11pm bottle? Talk about trial and error! Grandma and Nana are both helping out this week as Ian has gone back to work. He really misses her, and things aren't going very well with his job and his hours. Yesterday we had Sara in her bouncy chair for the first time without crying! From boob to bottle.

sugar mama: July 2007
http://sugarmama2.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 31, 2007. Look mom, I have toes! Sara has found her feet! Her favourite thing to do right now is hold her toes at any opportunity. before/after a nap, during diaper change, or while just lying on her mat. Adorable! I call it her yoga pose, upward-facing baby. She also has enough hair on top of her head now to warrant brushing it. Yesterday I got to brush my little girl's hair for the first time! Wednesday, July 25, 2007. Spot the sleeping baby. Labels: out and about. Tuesday, July 24, 2007.

sugar mama: May 2008
http://sugarmama2.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 28, 2008. Sunday afternoon at the pond. Last Sunday we met the fam at beautiful, historic Main St. Unionville and took Sara for a walk at Toogood pond. While we waited for Grandma and Grandpa to arrive Sara did one of her new favourite things - cruising around her umbrella stroller, playing with the straps and telling little stories ("sha sha sha."). This is also quite possibly the cutest toddler outfit ever. I picked up the sundress at H&M, and her squeaky shoes. Are just too much. We've ...

sugar mama: August 2007
http://sugarmama2.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 29, 2007. I've considered mentioning that Mommy knows all about trying to push something painful through a small spot for the first time, but this probably won't help. Instead I can only give extra cuddles and kisses and wait for a tiny white tip to appear on her gums. This week I'm slowly teaching her how to sit on her own, which she is desperate to do! She starts out strong. And then gets a little tipsy! Tuesday, August 28, 2007. Friday, August 24, 2007. We got in, and Sara and I will...

sugar mama: September 2007
http://sugarmama2.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 28, 2007. A spot of tea? I haven't mentioned it, but all week we've been giving Sara bum tea. What's that, you say? Our pharmacist told us to make a combo of hydrocortisone cream (0.5%) and the Life brand of Canesten. Not to be gross, but apparently diaper rash can become like a yeast infection. Finally, progress was made and her skin started to heal! Strangely, the mix of the cream and the diaper gave Sara's bum an aroma that I can only describe as 'eau de chicken broth'. Ian came with...

sugar mama: December 2007
http://sugarmama2.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 31, 2007. What a difference a year makes. Quite honestly I'm really not a new year's person so that was perfect for me, but this year it will be special to celebrate with Sara. I'll probably head up to bed shortly after midnight though, because she'll be awake and chattering away by 7:30am! 1 Learn how to crawl (forwards - backwards is almost down). 2 Give lots of hugs. Thursday, December 27, 2007. And then more fun ripping wrapping paper! She loves her new car from Santa. She's pretty e...

sugar mama: mother's day
http://sugarmama2.blogspot.com/2008/05/mothers-day.html
Sunday, May 11, 2008. This weekend was full, full. not of errands and chores, but happy moments, smiles, and cuddles. First I got my hair cut (a lot). and look, it's straight! Then I picked up this vintage sewing box at a garage sale for $4 , which is now a lovely new home for. Organizing all of my paints! It's such a good, inspirational read for anyone who appreciates and loves good food. And for Mother's Day we had brunch out at one of my favourite local spots. The transformation always astounds me.

sugar mama: February 2008
http://sugarmama2.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 26, 2008. If we're in the living room, her toys don't stand a chance these days. After a few minutes she quickly crawls over to her book basket. She pulls every book out and looks at a few pages of each one. Too funny! Labels: on the move. Tuesday, February 19, 2008. We celebrated the new Family Day holiday by having a brunch for Ian's mom at our place, and since we've been buried in never-ending snow I decorated the table in spring colours and tulips! Thursday, February 14, 2008. Sara ...

sugar mama: November 2007
http://sugarmama2.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 26, 2007. One of a kind finds. Yesterday at the One of Kind Show I tried to buy something for myself. really. I tried. But it seems that even when I try to shop for myself these days, I end up buying things for Sara instead! I picked up this cat puppet from Diabolo Puppets. It's so much fun and Muppet-like, I think she'll love it. It will be a gift for her first Christmas! All the free food samples, and one jar of red pepper jelly to pour over goat cheese for a Christmas dinner appetizer.
