Feeding baby solids – not exactly my favourite part of babyhood, to be completely honest. Let’s start at the beginning. Seven years ago, when Che was about seven months old, I noticed [...]
Sometimes the busyness of life completely stuns me. Take for example the fact that Percy is nearing six months old. Where did six entire months go to? I remember so many of those days as a whole [...]
