Luna has been a velcro baby these last few days. Teething maybe? I don’t know, but let’s just say it’s that. It sounds better than “My baby is fussy and I have no freaking clue why!”.

The positive side to the clinginess is that it gives me an excuse to tinker with this blog while she naps on me. I’m trying to nice-ify it, so please bear with me as I change things around a bit!

I’m less than a week into blogging and I’m really enjoying it so far. For me, one of the hardest things about having a baby toddler is the feeling that I can’t get anything done beyond the bare basics. Rationally, I know I’m being too hard on myself – just keeping a little one alive & happy is a 24/7 job. Still, I need a creative outlet, and this humble blog goes a fair way towards scratching that itch. I’m also looking forward to getting back to school in the next couple of months. Studying while my baby naps makes me feel like I’m winning at life. The queen of multitasking. Okay, I’m no Þóra “Bad-Ass” Arnórsdóttir, running for president whilst briefly stopping to give birth, but it’s something.

On a completely unrelated note, I just have to share a few more pics of Luna in her birthday tutu (made by yours truly). As you can see, she’s obsessed with socks at the moment. She’s turned into a little sock bandit, thieving them from laundry baskets and even mugging them right off my feet. Fifty-bajillion toys and all she wants is nasty old socks. Toddler’s are weird.

Anyway, behold the incredible cuteness that is Luna in a tutu (and Raven too, of course!):
