Returning to Travel PT with a Baby You may have noticed we have been on quite the hiatus since our last blog post. OOPS! The last few months have been a blur returning to travel PT with a baby… They have been a huge reminder of the extreme amount of flexibility required to juggle...
Travel PT Lifestyle: Backpacking with Baby A flat-noted wail that Ellen and I have come to recognize as Kinley’s tired cry echoes out over an otherwise serene alpine lake. A falcon dive-bombs an unsuspecting fish, a coyote softly sings the sun to sleep, just as the perfect orange glow of a Sierra sunset slips...
Zombies and Baby Farts – Our Battle with the 4 Month Sleep Regression 4 months and 10 days! We had 4 months and 10 days of (relatively) restful sleep before our little angel baby decided to go demonic on us on a nightly basis! Sure, Kinley had always been dealing with night waking (waking...

She joined her two dog sisters, Layla and Cayenne, as the third girl in our family. To say she has filled our hearts is an...
Our Crazy Last Week: What to do when things fall apart The past few weeks have been some of the most tumultuous in our travel therapy careers. Yes, we are dealing with a newborn baby, and there are obvious inherent stressors associated with keeping 7 pound mini-person alive, but the stress I am referring...
Traveling with a Baby: Pregnancy As many of our readers and Facebook followers may know, we welcomed our first child into the world on August 24th!
