Trader Joe’s employees are usually good about finding out things – they have a number they can call and ask all sorts of ridiculous questions (my sister works there). Next time you’re there, just ask if it’s cold pressed and ask if they can find out :)

Love this post, hope you have an amazing trip! Baby C is too cute… We are traveling with our little guy in April and I have had a heck of a time finding a swimsuit/rash guard small enough… Would you mind sharing where you found one?

Yay Baby Banz!!! One of my daughters insisted on wearing hers until she was almost 3 years old. It was hilarious- she would wear them in the grocery store, church, anywhere! It was one of our best ‘baby’ investments ever :)

I feel your pain regarding Cullen refusing the bottle. The same daughter insisted only on breastfeeding, and it made it so difficult to leave her with the grandparents or for dad to take her anywhere. When I started sending her to daycare, the lovely women who took care of her reminded me that if she’s hungry, she will eat. It wasn’t too comforting at the time, but it was true. On the second day there, she finally took a bottle. Hang in there!

Uh oh! Baby Cullen- you take that bottle for your mommy! Just kidding- don’t panic- I’ve had some bottle refusers. At least 2 of my 7 wouldn’t take one. For date nights, nurse and then go out after his bed time (if he goes to bed early enough.) For longer times, set him up with a medicine dropper and breastmilk. BF babies don’t need much. Remember, when he’s older, he’ll be able to make do with baby food for decent stretches of time. Some babies will take juice from a bottle, even if they refuse milk.

Also, grandmas are sometimes very successful when everone else has failed!

Whoa! $80? That is insane. I’d stick with holey shoes too.

Oooh Maui! I have never been to Hawaii. I hope you have a great time!

I didn’t read through all the comments so I’m sorry if I’ve repeated another comment but have you tried rubbing your nipple and breast on the bottle. Sounds weird but when babies root for food they do it by scent so with your smell on it, it might help.

Your fridge is jam packed! I can’t quit thinking about it since our fridge is embarrassingly bare: two beers, some vegan margarine, cranberry juice, lemons, a piece of ginger, two hunks of cheese and half a carton of yogurt. What is wrong with me? It’s too cold to go to the grocery I guess. Have fun with your family! I hope its a good, restful break for you.

Pumpkin risotto? Oh my gosh that sounds heavenly! I need to get myself to Oahu! I know they periodically change their menus so perhaps I either missed it on the menu the last time or it’s new, but either way it sounds amazing!
