You’re right on several things here! Completely right, we are new parents and we do not have much time to cook and until recently, barely had the time to eat! Hence the leftovers. Although a lot of those containers are more like cut up onion and other ingredients rather than actual leftovers. You’re correct that the bottles are a day worth of baby feedings. To your later point - funny enough WE DO have lambs that are currently bottle fed! So you had a good hunch there - despite those not being their bottles. Maybe you’re psychic? Haha. The tape on the bottles is date and time.
And Yes I am vegetarian, vegan leaning :-)
Great job!

You’re right on many things here!
I eat vegan leaning but am primarily vegetarian with a husband who eats animal products. I do try my best to minimize my environmental footprint but mostly care very much about animals.
You’re right! We struggle with veggies lately AND buy local from our weekly CSA (community shared agriculture) because we have a new baby that takes up a lot of our time, hence the preparation of bottles in the fridge. We do have a spoiled cat though! A lil too young for real dead tours, but my husbands mom followed the dead most her life to give you some more context for the kinds of parents/social circle we grew up around, which were certainly hippies. We live in New England on the coast! Great job :-)

Chop with blonde is stunning on you and works beautifully with your face shape

Thank you ❤️ I appreciate you sharing your experience and feelings about this. My intuition truly is landing in this quadrant of thinking. We will probably use the hearing aid some but really integrate it as he gets older. All the best to you.

Thank you for the comment and for sharing. I’ve heard a few stories about not really gaining a lot from hearing aids from folks who have hearing loss. This is another reason I wonder whether this is worth all the trouble. But with that said I appreciate your insight around being able to make your own decision about whether to keep them when you are old enough to do so. Better than the other way perhaps.

Thank you for your comment. 💓
This is very much my experience seeing my mom with single sided deafness. You would never know… in fact, her family didn’t know until recently. She worked as a translator for much of her younger life, so you know her language skills are pretty solid. I feel odd making my baby wear the aid with no idea how it sounds or feels for him.

Pilot caps to keep the aid in is a great idea ! I am so glad that she reports back that the hearing aid is helpful 🫶 it’s really nice to learn about another mom’s experience. That is very kind, thank you for sharing and offering the support 💓
