This is Jill: Traveling with a Wee One
http://thisisjill.blogspot.com/2015/03/traveling-with-wee-one.html
Sunday, March 15, 2015. Traveling with a Wee One. I wasn't entirely sure what to expect when traveling to Florida with my 10 month old daughter but she did great. Here is a quick post about what I found helpful when flying with her. Although we traveled with a friend and her small daughter it was essentially like traveling alone since we were each busy focusing on our girls. Here are some helpful pointers if you are going to brave a solo trip! Tips for the Airport. Snacks and water for both mommy and baby.

This is Jill: Can't Live Without You - 4th Edition
http://thisisjill.blogspot.com/2014/11/cant-live-without-you-4th-edition.html
Saturday, November 29, 2014. Can't Live Without You - 4th Edition. Peanut will be 8 freakin' months in a few short days. Slow down time! It's funny, when we first brought peanut home time moved at a slow motion pace and I didn't think the days would ever end. Now that we are in our groove and Peanut and I know each other pretty darn well, the days are going far too quick. Makes my heart ache a little. Here is a list of the items that we haven't been able to live without over the last two months. 4 Family...

This is Jill: Spaghetti Squash Lasagna
http://thisisjill.blogspot.com/2015/02/spaghetti-squash-lasagna.html
Wednesday, February 18, 2015. Back in university my girlfriend who was on weight watchers introduced me to spaghetti squash as a great pasta alternative. Yummy! I stumbled across a recipe for spaghetti squash lasagna and I was sold. This was delish and the hubby loved it too. I will definitely make this again! I of course made some modifications to the original recipe so here is my version. Yield: 2 servings plus leftovers. Splash of olive oil. Sprinkle of coarse salt. 1/4-1/2 lb ground turkey. Awesome I...

This is Jill: Mama's Shortbread Cookies
http://thisisjill.blogspot.com/2014/11/mamas-shortbread-cookies.html
Sunday, November 30, 2014. A few days ago while peanut was napping I decided to get my bake on. I asked the hubby what Christmas cookies he wanted and he insisted that I make squares. Sorry, that wasn't an option buddy. Maybe later. So I decided on chewy ginger cookies. And my Mom's shortbread cookies. My mom makes the best shortbread cookies ever. They are crumbly, buttery and melt in your mouth. So.So.Yummy. They taste better when she makes them but here is the recipe. Yield: About 48 cookies.

This is Jill: Christmas Traditions
http://thisisjill.blogspot.com/2014/12/christmas-traditions.html
Thursday, December 18, 2014. 2 Family, family, family - Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without family. Yes, friends are super important during the holidays but as far as I'm concerned family trumps everything. Spending as much time together during the holidays is so important. 3 Decorating Day - This happens any day after November 11th and involved hot chocolate and great holiday tunes. 6 Santa treats - Left out on Christmas Eve and will include a carrot for Rudolph. One thing to read:. One thing I need:.

This is Jill: Passenger Goodie Bags
http://thisisjill.blogspot.com/2015/01/passenger-goodie-bags.html
Tuesday, January 27, 2015. Since I hate packing I decided to avoid it as long as possible and put together 24 goodies bags for our voyage, 12 for each way. We are hoping our flight will be filled with numerous retired grandparents heading south who will hopefully be missing their grandchildren and want to lend a helping hand. ha! We will see. In the mean time, I should probably focus my energy on figuring out what to pack for Peanut and less on packing treats for complete strangers. Baby Boy Bakery .

This is Jill: Can't Live Without You - 5th Edition
http://thisisjill.blogspot.com/2015/01/cant-live-without-you-5th-edition.html
Tuesday, January 27, 2015. Can't Live Without You - 5th Edition. Holy crapola. Peanut will be 10 freakin' months old in a few days, which means it's time for another CLWY entry. It's getting a lot easier to live without items now that Peanut is able to make basically anything a toy. Just this weekend a meltdown was diverted because of an empty Gatorade bottle - phew! Gatorade: More than just a hangover cure! 1 Organic Unsweetened Apple Sauce. 4 Playtex Training Cup. This highchair wipes down so easily an...

This is Jill: Lucky Stars
http://thisisjill.blogspot.com/2015/06/lucky-stars.html
Thursday, June 4, 2015. After discussing the below story with family and friends I had a handful of people request I write about our experience in hopes to educate others on warning signs of pulmonary aspiration. I am not a medical professional (far from it! And I am only sharing our personal experience. So here we go. I have to admit, this experience brought back a lot of unwanted memories from our days in the NICU when Peanut was first born. Yuck! 3 When in doubt go to the hospital. Baby Boy Bakery .

Sunday, April 26, 2015. Can't Live Without You - 6th Edition. My daughters first birthday was a few weeks ago (party details to come! So it's about time for another edition to CLWY. It's crazy how much our little lady has grown in the last few months. She isn't a baby anymore - she has so much personality! Here is the list of our most recent CLWY items. Baby socks are a nightmare - they fall off all the time and babies love to yank them off. They are only $6.00 a pair and totally worth it! 5 Soft coffee ...
