Introducing the Mindful Parenting eBundle Sale

2013-05-23T11:39:00.000-07:00

I'm very exited to let you know about the upcoming Mindful Parenting eBundle Sale, organized by Jennifer from Hybrid Rasta Mama, Laura from Authentic Parenting, and (me) Lauren from Hobo Mama.

The bundle is 21 titles by esteemed parenting authors. I'm an organizer, contributor, and affiliate of the bundle (nothing like multitasking!), so I'm really excited about this upcoming sale. It starts May 28 and lasts for only 12 days.

If you were wondering why I've been taking a wee vacation from blogging, this is why! Organizing this bundle sale has been a ton of really rewarding work, and I'm so pleased to introduce you to this incredible group of resources.

This bundle is a conscious parent's bonanza: a handpicked selection of e-books, workshops, e-magazines, and audio, with themes such as creativity and play, peaceful guidance, mindfulness for mothers, children and food, self-care and relaxation, and more.

Among the resources is my own e-book, Poetry of a Hobo Mama, a collection of poems inspired by my first three years of parenting Mikko. You can read reviews and excerpts for my book here.

These 21 resources are a total value of $236 but will be available for the incredible price of $24.95!

Wordless Wednesday: Turning two

2013-05-22T01:24:00.000-07:00

See this boy?

Just a couple days ago, this cool dude was ONE year old!

And now…

…he's TWO!

That's so exciting it makes him want to dance!

It makes us want to party!

We're having their "real" joint birthday party with friends and festivities soon,
so on Alrik's actual birthday, we just had a little family gathering.

Plane!
(Can you see his lips making the appropriate motor sounds?
And the accompanying drool stream?)

The boys check out my (second) attempt at a nut-free, grain-free cake. Or, I should say, "cake." They're more like sweet quiche. With butter spread.

The cake might not have enthused, but the candles sure did.
We had to relight them several times.

Keep an eye on that one. He might be a year older,
but he still doesn't know not to eat candles.

To avoid sibling drama, I made sure to wrap up a couple shared gifts
and make up "goody bags" for our two party boys.

Reading the missive from one set of grandparents…

…and playing with toys from the other set.
Note where the stickers from Grandma's card ALL ended up.

What a happy birthday!
We love you, Alrik,
and you'll always be my baby.
