Happy St. Patrick's Day

Today we celebrated St. Patrick's day by hanging out home. After receiving a large amount of snow, we would have been pretty limited even if we had wanted to do something. We of course had corned beef for dinner. Despite the fact that our sons look Irish and have Irish names, we are actually not Irish. I was an exchange student in Northern Ireland a number of years ago, and I really like Irish names. Plus when I was in Catholic school I always had a secret desire to be Irish and to be able to wear the Shamrock stickers that read "Kiss me, I'm Irish" on St. Patrick's day like the majority of the class did. Actually it's kind of funny because the family I stayed with was really surprised by how Americans celebrate St. Patrick's day. Apparently over there it is a religious day.

My husband, The Big Giraffe spent a long time outside with our older son (OS) who has really begun to appreciate the snow for the first time this winter. He's 3.5. Both of them made snow angels and snowballs. The Big Giraffe pulled OS around the back yard in his sled. They also did a St. Patrick's Day craft. You'll have to check out Crafts for the Clueless to be able to see what it was. I know I'm shameless.

For those of us who didn't get an instruction manual with our babies and for whom parenting hasn't always gone as planned. On a more serious note this blog is about supporting a woman's ability to make her own choices about parenting including the choice, for whatever reason, to bottle feed her babies formula.
