Loved this response to the Time cover:

If you are not a mother, you at least have one. Why would you not want mothers to be allowed the time that they need with their babies? My plea is that women of America (and everyone else) get off of each others’ asses about how long to breastfeed and whether or not it’s appropriate to do it in public. Stop judging the mother with her kid on a leash, and the one that lets her baby sleep on his belly.

How about, instead, we get on our government’s ass about giving us more time to do what we are meant to do – to just be parents.

Learning to pump

Nah, I’m not talking about that of the breast variety. Lord knows I’ve sufficiently documented my adventures with that kind of bovine-inspired machinery.

I’m referring to Sunny learning to pump on a big girl swing, and little sister Courtland’s ingenious interpretation of this activity. It’s endless entertainment around Cartwheel Farm. Plus, you’ll get to hear my rendition of the “Kicky Kaks” song. Pretty inspired material, I know.
