How’s everyone doing with the increased costs of pretty much everything??

This can’t go on forever, right? Every single bill we have has increased in the past year outside of internet service, gas has almost doubled, grocery prices are INSANE! How’s your family doing with it?

I’m interested in applying for citizenship for myself and my daughters (eventually) via my Oma. I think I would have to be accepted as a citizen before them? I requested my Oma’s birth certificate and marriage certificate through Darmstadt last week. Hoping I did that correctly. My cousins and aunts are still in Darmstadt and could help me get documents if I’m not able to get them myself. I am a bit lost on the process. Would someone be able to break it down for me?

My Oma meant the world to me. She was the person I spent the most time with growing up so this all means a lot.

My second baby has been a dream to breastfeed! My first had latch issues, triple fed for 3 months exclusively pumped for 10 and it was brutal. Feeding my current baby has been so lovely and calming. In the chaos of having a 2 year old and a newish baby feeding her is one of the only things that makes me feel calm and happy. I had PPD with my first and don’t this time- wondering if the breastfeeding is the thing that has helped so much.
