Naturepedic Organic Cotton Lightweight Classic Crib Mattress and… an extra review of the 2-in-1 Ultra Crib Mattress

Posted on August 30, 2011 by CherryBlossomMJ

When we knew that we were going to have another child, some of the choices were made easily for us. We knew that we would want to buy a second convertible crib, since AppleBlossom will still be using hers in toddler format for a long while. We also knew that meant a new crib mattress. Knowing how satisfied we were when we purchased the Naturepedic Organic Cotton 2-in-1 Ultra Crib Mattress for AppleBlossom, I knew that I would not be compromised and would go there again.

Ten Sleepy Sheep by Phyllis Root & Susan Gaber

Posted on September 24, 2010 by CherryBlossomMJ

Outside in the farmyard, ten lively lambs would rather play than go to sleep. Off they scamper; off they skip. But the sun is sinking, the stars are twinkling, sleepy eyes can’t stay open, and one by one, ten drowsy sheep drop off to sleep in a cozy country countdown. With rhythmic, lyrical language and pastoral scenes of lambs drifting off wherever they may, author and artist blend the perfect potion to ease even spirited little ones into sweet dreams.

Infantino Fold & Go Bouncer

Posted on June 29, 2010 by CherryBlossomMJ

As I have discovered, not everything goes according to plan when you have a new baby in the house. In our example, a few months before AppleBlossom was born we discovered that the Enginerd was being laid off and then two months after she was born we were off moving from Georgia to Tennessee to start a new life and a new job at a fabulous company. It was only last month that we were able to finally sell our house in Georgia. During this time there was a lot of back and forth. Driving to the house in Georgia, … Continue reading →

All Advice Welcome – Baby Sleep

Posted on May 27, 2010 by CherryBlossomMJ

I used to giggle a little to myself at two months and then four months of age for AppleBlossom when people would ask me, “Is she sleeping through the night yet?” She has been sleeping through the night since two weeks old! Yes when she was very newborn, she’d slightly wake, nurse and then go back out for another several hours. It was a very healthy situation for all of us. That is until she turned six months old. I do not know what happened. Nothing changed except she got a few teeth, then later an ear infection, but we … Continue reading →

Nine Months

Posted on May 6, 2010 by CherryBlossomMJ

AppleBlossom is nine months old! Can you believe it? It does not seem that long ago that I was pregnant… wow. And now my baby is no more baby baby, she is not quite a toddler, but she is a woddler (my new favorite term thank you Abingdon Press). It seems like there are things that she is ahead of the curve on and I hear that is good and bad. As my SisterL states, she does not encourage early walkers… As of the first week of April we had the beginnings of one tooth, then April 20th we had … Continue reading →
