HHAHAHAHA. Good thing I am 100% sure my middle initial is NOT 'C'... and that I haven't been in Vegas for four years.

Info for Lullabies from my class
Here is the info for the music we used today in the lullaby class. These are the resources I used. I think Jeanne Brady is a GENIUS and she makes wonderful music, not only this lullaby CD but lots and lots more. The other CD is the only modern version I could find of an old LP my mother has. The recording is not as great, but you only need to listen to it a few times to really get the melodies in your head. Sing sing sing to your child! :)

AND as a bonus to ALL the mamas out there, I'm doing a little promo for nursing portraits:
Just you and your baby, we'll get some beautiful images. The discount only applies those who book by Sept. 1st (sessions can take place AFTER that date, but you must reserve your spot by then). Having recently had pictures taken of myself nursing E, I can only tell you how glad I am to have them. It is such a HUGE part of a mom's life, and it can be documented so beautifully!

Loving Through Lullabies: Because "Rock a Bye Baby" is CREEPY
Hi All!
Tomorrow I'm changing my hat (from photog to mom) and teaching a class on Loving through Lullabies from 12-2pm at the Salt Lake City Main Library. It is part of the Breastfeeding Cafe, a community outreach program of the Utah Breastfeeding Coalition. Their goals are to...
1) Show that breastfeeding is normal
2) Inspire thought and conversation about breastfeeding
3) Encourage relationships among breastfeeding advocates
Regardless of whether you have breastfed or not, it seems within the circles I inhabit that most moms don't know very many lullabies. I know TONS and I really love to sing to and with my children. There is something soothing about it for both parties. The class will be wonderful and I'll have songs for confident singers AND for the one's who aren't so sure.
Also, if you haven't seen my pieces that are up, you can while you're there! ;)
