 Leave a comment I’ve been a bit MIA the past week. That’s because I’ve been on and off the phone with the breastfeeding center lactation consultants–my one-year-old has been biting.

I could list all sorts of reasons . . . → Read More: Shifted Perspective on Athletic Goals April 1st, 2013
Leave a comment My older son has a peanut allergy. I used to think food allergies were imaginary, truly I did. We learned about my kiddo’s allergy when he broke out in alarming, angry hives while eating some peanut butter yogurt.
