I've been putting it off for ages, but there's no denying that my littles are too big to be in diapers or be carried around. Soooo... I have to face it. I'm starting to organize a big de-stashing of beautiful cloth (organic cotton, bamboo, velour in the cutest fabric designs ever) diapers, woolies, pants that fit over cloth diapers, and a sweet custom-knitted hearts and rainbows cardigan -- all made lovingly at home, by hand, by work-at-home mamas. Not pictured are some carriers (a Tula, a custom-made half-buckle from Madame Googoo, a gorgeous rainbow 🌈 Girasol ring sling). 💞😭💞Time to pass them on to the next handmade and cloth-loving mamas and babies. DM me if you know any mamas who love this kind of baby stuff. 💞😭💞 #wahm #destash #clothdiapers #fitteddiapers #woolies #handmade #crunchymamas #babywearing #babycarrier (at Encinitas, California)

This is called being gradually swallowed by your own expanding uterus. #tbt from July 2008, 35 weeks with our Lani-Mäuschen. Little did I know I had seven more weeks to bake this kleines vitales Mädchen, as our midwife used to call her 😳. #omg #35weeks #bigasahousebecauseiahouse #7moreweekstogo #waddlewaddle #ashtangamama #ashtangababy #mamasgirl (at Hamburg, Germany)

A typically perfect Encinitas day: beach beach beach (the clouds were welcome cover for the blazing summer ☀️) and then 🌮 🌮 🌮 . I think we need to repeat this sequence today this time with sunset 🌅 but the same tacos. Living here has given me a major taco addiction. #sandiegoliving #northcounty #encinitas #stonestepsbeach #waterbabies #encinitaslife #juanitastacoshop #tacoaddiction (at Juanitas Taco Shop)

#Repost @petesouza Remembering this moment from a few years ago. In retrospect, maybe it symbolizes a time when the executive branch of our government didn't discriminate against our sisters and brothers in the LGBT community.

A favorite afternoon snack for my littles: brown and white (Korean or Japanese) rice rolled into a "log" with roasted and salted (sesame oil and pink Himalayan salt) seaweed, and summer sweet watermelon 🍉 balls. Yum 👅 for Mama, too. #summersnack #kiddofood #healthysnacks #mamadiaries #momlife #yum (at Encinitas, California)

Meesh about to dive into his "Works" Burger. Look at that salad! So yum! 👅 #yum #vegan #santamonicaeats #veganburger #goldenmeancafe (at Golden Mean Cafe)

Spicy vegan tuna rolls. They went down super easy. And yes, the roll is shaped like a caterpillar. #yum #couldeatthiseveryday #goldenmeancafe #santamonicaeats #vegan #vegansushi (at Golden Mean Cafe)

#tbt o fb memories, how you slay! In spite of, or probably because of, the craziness of this age, i LOVE toddlers. Tiny mini-humans suspended for a fleeting time in between babies and little kids with tiny voices, big heads on little bodies, endless streams of totally wacky ideas and oozing with affection. I'd do toddlerhood with these delicious munchkins all over again. #toddlersrule #toddlersofinstagram #2yearsold #18months #hamburgbabies #precious #mamadiaries #mamasbabies #momlife (at Hamburg, Germany)

GURU PŪRNIMĀ and MOON DAY — MOON DAY SATURDAY JULY 8 & GURU PŪRṆIMĀ Saturday July 8 is Guru Pūrnimā, the day on which we pay our deepest respects and receive the blessings of the Guru many fold more than usual. This particular full moon (Sunday in India) marks Guru Pūrṇimā, the day that students and spiritual seekers pay respects to their gurus, those who are responsible for leading them to the true knowledge of yoga. Guru Pūrṇimā falls on the full moon day in the Hindu month of Āṣāḍha, which takes place in June and July. Not by chance, founder of the Aṣṭāṅga yoga tradition, Śrī K Pattabhi Jois was born on Guru Pūrnimā in 1915.

@joisyogaencinitas . 4TH SCHEDULE / GURU PURNIMA - SATURDAY JULY 8 — FOURTH SCHEDULE, FULL MOON AND GURU PURNIMA This Tuesday, July 4th there will be one Mysore class only from 7-10am, no evening class. The schedule on Monday July 3rd will remain as usual (6am-10.30am Mysore and 5.30pm-7.30pm Mysore). GURU PURNIMA - SATURDAY JULY 8. The next moon day at Jois Encinitas is on Saturday July 8th. It is the Full Moon in Āṣāḍha commonly known as Gurū Pūrṇimā, the day that the Guru is traditionally worshipped. It is also believed the power of the Guru to transform his students is magnified many times on this special day. It is also known as Vyāsa Pūrṇimā as the ancient Indian sage Veda Vyasa was born on this day, scribe of the Mahābhārata and the one who collated the vedas, India’s ancient source of spiritual knowledge. Our own Ṣrī K Pattabhi Jois was born on Guru Pūrṇimā in 1915. Guru to so many thousands of yoga students and instrumental in keeping traditional yoga alive through his spreading of Aṣṭāṅga Yoga around the globe. (Guru Pūrṇīma is being celebrated on the 8th in the US since the moon is full here on this day, but at the same time it will be the 9th in India, hence you may have have read online that Guru Pūrṇimā is on the 9th) Photo courtesy of Jesse Gordon NYC 2001 #ashtanga #ashtangayoga #gurupurnima #guruji #srikpattabhijois #sharathjois #fullmoon #moonday #encinitasyoga #sandiegoyoga (at Jois Yoga Encinitas)
