Thor's Day (really orange day)

Okay so today is really orange day, Yesterday was yellow day which is really funny because shortly after I took his "Orange Day" picture he threw up and leaked onto his orange outfit and spent the rest of the day in yellow (which was really the color of the day) It's kinda funny that when we mess up our rhythm the universe helps set it right.


Here's the progress on Eoghan's felt fruit and veggies.  I like the way they are turning out so far, and figure they are toys that will grow with him, and first they are fun teether, textile toys, then a good way to teach colors and foods and eventually will make fun play foods for a play kitchen.

Wednesday's Work in Progress and Orange Day



This is going to be a very long work in progress (about 3 years), but I have started felting Eoghan some fruit and veggies.  When he gets older I want to buy him a play kitchen and I figured it's never too early to start a love for veggies.  The very first one I made was an eggplant (aubergine) because the night he was born I had eaten eggplant, desperate to deliver this baby, I had tried every wive's tale and home remedy to induce labor,  and I'm not sure if the eggplant actually helped or if it was just Eoghan's time to come, but the eggplant will always be a special reminder of that beautiful evening/morning that Eoghan joined our family.

And here he is wearing his Orange for Orange day, this ourfit only lasted about 5 minutes after this picture was taken, apparently he was not feeling orange day so he peed and spit up all over his orange clothes.

Tuesday, Mars Day, Red Day!


Happy Red Day,  Eoghan is three months old today!  Sometimes it feels like he has been apart of our family forever and other times it feels like just yesterday he joined us.  I cannot believe three months have passed already.

At three months we are working on longer tummy times, still mastering holding up that big ol' Irish head, and in a torrid love affair with our hands, if only that thumb would stop hidding.

Saturday, Saturn's Day, or Washing Day is Blue Day

In an effort to go ahead and establish a rhythm in our home, I have started trying to incorporate Steiner’s colors associated with the days of the week into our lives, rather it be in choosing what color diaper cover, what clothes, what playsilk, to use or what color flowers or candle to use to warm our home.  Today is Blue day so here are some photos of Eoghan sporting some baby blues:




Here is the list of Steiner’s days of the week and the planet, color and grain he associates with them:
Monday, moon, violet, rice

Tuesday, mars, red, barley

Wednesday, mercury, yellow, millet

Thursday, jupiter, orange, rye

Friday, venus, green, oats

Saturday, saturn, blue, corn

Sunday, sun, white, wheat
