what sofia eats, v.1


      grape tomatoes, avocado, grilled veggie burger and annie's cheddar bunnies      


      green seedless grapes with pancakes      


      cheddar potato pierogis, tangerine slices, garlic pearled couscous with corn         
Diapers & Skinny Jeans will be slowly introducing more and more new, original content over the next coming weeks, and I'm excited to announce I'm bringing back the "What Sofia Eats" portion of the blog to you.  (Especially since it doesn't consist of rice cereal and mashed bananas anymore!) 

Since I started a bit late, I only have three meals to show you this week-- but, I'm hoping to catch every meal for the next seven days.  I know I've personally struggled at times with finding inspiration for kiddo meals, so I figure if anyone else out there has run into a similar problem, hopefully these meals can give you something new to try with your little one.  We've been pretty lucky that Sofia will try most anything once, though certain things like broccoli or peas are still a big "ick!"

PS- thank you for all of your great discussion on yesterday's seasonal post.  It is so wonderful when you all chime in and share your own personal stories.  I truly enjoyed reading every last one of them!

    Oh, and I noticed Sofia's White Sox shirt! I'm from the Chicago area but, sadly I don't live in Illinois anymore : /

    What a small world! Illinois is great, but I'm not sure that I'm ready for our Chicago winter quite yet. Thankfully it seems to be headed in a mild direction so far.

    Fantastic! I'm always looking out for new ideas except I have a fussy 4 year old that I'm trying to UN-fussy! I have to say that as of last Wednesday she is finally eating broccoli! My trick? Serve it every night :)

    What beautiful meals you are creating for your babe! Our little people eat anything and I really believe it's because of the variety of food we have exposed them too. Well done Mumma! Wishing you a delightful week.

    my favourite thing about feeding the kids is chopping everything into bite sized portions and separating them. Even salad must me served by colour!

    As for baby/kid food- fritters are a healthy fave here. My friends and I always joke that 'you can fritt anything'!

    Oh I think Sass is stuck in an egg and veg for dinner rut. This might be just the thing to help her move on! x

bump : week 22

I've said it before, but if I could pack up and move my entire family straight into the By The Barkers studio space, I would. Absolute heaven! As for our little one, he or she has been giving me strong, swift kicks - especially around bed time.  Waves and ripples dance across my belly as I lay in bed waiting, watching.  I'll admit, it's been difficult for Erick and I since we've decided to keep things a surprise as far as the gender.  We were both so used to the feeling of knowing with Sofia that it's made this pregnancy a completely unique experience.  My intuition keeps swaying back and forth wondering if this little one is a boy or girl, and judging by the way that I look, feel and eat, my best guess is that we have another little lady on the way. (Though, if you ask Sofia, she's already told us she thinks baby is a "bruh-der")  !!! Mamas out there, was your intuition right? Any tell-tale signs or...

Easter Weekend

Hello! Happy mid-week to you. This is the roll of photos we shot over our Easter weekend , and oh what a wonderful weekend it was. It was so nice to have family here to visit - even if the weather was cooler than we anticipated! We visited the redwoods in Felton, ate vegetarian burritos, went to the epic shoreside in Montara, and the brewing company in Half Moon Bay. Our hearts are full and our home is feeling quite empty now ;) As a side note, I've found a renewed love with film. This is a post for another time, but it bears mentioning here! There has been much on my mind re: photography, and hopefully this will be the space I can share that. For the curious, all the above were shot on a Nikon FM10 with Fuji Superia 400 speed film.

welcoming fall: hiking together

A while back, I had posted about dreading the change of the season.  I was so caught up in my whirlwind of a summer, the beautiful weather, the bare feet, the music and late night dancing in the wilderness, camping, and vacations that I barely remembered or welcomed the un-rushed pace that comes with the beginning of fall. Living in the middle of the city has been a blessing for finding new, exciting and bustling places to eat and explore, but so many times I'm wishing for the opportunity to do something a little less... urban .  I grew up in the country, and Erick, in the city- so now we've been doing our best to give our child the best of both worlds. We took a drive about 40 minutes south of the city to a little place in the suburbs and welcomed the crisp and cool air that kissed our cheeks as we embarked on a tiny adventure in the forest.  Hiking with a toddler is such an enriching exper...
