In case you don't know this by now I'm a huge fan of breastfeeding. I've nursed all of our babies for various lengths of time. I think our current baby will have the distinction of nursing the longest. He is just over two years old and show no intention of stopping. I'm okay with that …

I guess the one I have enjoyed the most has been Mrs. Astor Regrets: The Hidden Betrayals of a Family Beyond Reproach by Meryl Gordon. It's about the late Mrs. Brooke Astor …

It's like when you've been eating out a lot, but you just want some good home cooking - something you're familiar and comfortable …
Friday File 9
I meant to get this out earlier today, but I had chiropractor appointments for all of our children plus me. Then we came home and watched an old black and white movie - so nice that my girls are into those now. Then I had to pick my husband up from work, and we had …
