Rae and I took a break from the sand and sun during our recent beach vacation to nurse our babies.

    I love it! Wait'll you have a little son try to do it. It's pretty cute and funny.

    My son was asking (in the store) the other day if we were going to get bottles for the new baby and I said, "no, new baby shouldn't need bottles." Then that look came over his face and he said, "oh yeah! You feed babies with your body!"

    After I clicked out and smiled at the picture again, I realized that she's even got the doll in the right position–tummy to tummy! Way to go, girl! :)

    That may be one of the cutest things I've ever seen! Jaina was one to nurse her stuffed animals and dolls, too. But I don't think anyone ever got a picture of it!

    I have a picture nursing my doll when I was little, and I treasure it! But how adorable to see you both doing this together :)

    You look AWESOME by the way!

    I LOVE it! You two are so sweet!

Hi, I’m Kate

I’m a wife, mom of five kids, writer, speaker, storyteller, bibliophile, runner, eating disorder survivor, and perfectionist in recovery. I'm the author of Getting Past Perfect: Finding Joy & Grace in the Messiness of Motherhood  and Weightless: Making Peace With Your Body.

I’ve tried a lot of things in my life – anorexia, bulimia, law school, teaching aerobics, extended breastfeeding, vegetarianism, trying to be perfect and failing miserably at it – and through it all I’ve been writing. And learning to embrace the messiness of life instead of covering it up, making excuses for it, or being ashamed of my brokenness or my home’s sticky counters.

Nowadays I’m striving every single, imperfect day to strike a balance between keeping it real and keeping it joyful.

 

“She could never be a saint, but she thought she could be a martyr if they killed her quick.”

―Flannery O'Connor
