Support For Fair-Trade Knit Toys!

Fri, 11 Apr 2008 21:34:41 -0400

Support For Fair-Trade Knit Toys!: To further my quest to be consciously aware, I decided to look into what kind of products I could purchase that not only serve as toys for Avin, but also as a lesson he can learn later on in life about living consciously. I don’t want him to grow up and take what he has for granted, and I also want him to understand that there are many people in this world who have much less than he does.

5 Things I Hate To Hear The Most (regarding pregnancy)

Sun, 06 Apr 2008 05:04:43 -0400

5 Things I Hate To Hear The Most (regarding pregnancy): This is coming from a dad’s perspective, so I can’t really speak for anyone who’s pregnant, obviously. 9 months of pregnancy is a hell of a lot harder for the moms than anyone else, but since I consider this a team effort between mom and dad, we try our best to be on the same page about certain things. Don’t get me wrong, we love hearing advice from anyone with experience raising children. I’m always up for hearing someone’s perspective, and learning from it. But sometimes the majority of advice that is given to us becomes repetitive, and is only said because it feels like the right thing to say at the time, because we’ve all heard it many times before. Not only does it come from family and friends, but strangers as well. It’s not that I would rather everyone not say anything at all, far from it. What I wish to happen is that people remember it’s not always what you say, but how you say it. In other words, teach not tell!

Doctor Negligence?

Doctor Negligence?: This is something that has been on my mind ever since our last ultrasound on January 8th. I wanted to write about it in hopes that I could compose my thoughts and also get insight from others who may have had similar experiences.

Going Green With Your Baby

Tue, 15 Jan 2008 03:34:31 -0500

Going Green With Your Baby: With Avin being about 4-5 months away, we are starting to get more and more of the essential type things ready for him. Things like diapers, bottles, clothes, etc. so I started thinking about the possibility of buying Green products for our baby, and if it was even worth it.

Ultrasound #2 and the best way to scare a pregnant woman: For the most part, the ultrasound went very well. We were able to take home a bunch of new pictures and spent a good amount of time watching our baby squirm around and cover his face with his hands. He must have been a little bashful today.

10 Things I wish my parents had taught me… better.

Wed, 09 Jan 2008 02:02:33 -0500

10 Things I wish my parents had taught me… better.: Enough time has passed in my life where I can look back and (mostly) understand the things my parents had taught me, or at least tried to teach me, or maybe forgot to teach me as I was growing up. I wish now that I had paid attention and listened to the importance of knowing these things and how they will ultimately shape the person that I have become, or have yet to become.

But mostly, it’s worth learning a bit of Latin because omnia dicta fortiori, si dicta Latina: everything sounds more impressive when said in Latin.
