Look Ma, We’re On TV!

Look Ma, We’re On TV!

In the midst of everything else we had going on the last few weeks, we got a request from a local news team for an interview about our family’s experience with Paleo. Of course, we were thrilled to help spread our positive thoughts on how real food can affect a family! It’s our hope that other families watching their morning news would be inspired to give paleo a try if it means not just losing weight, but drastically improving health too. So we (nervously) invited a news crew with bright lights and a big camera into our home for a few hours to hang out and watch us prepare a...

In Our Gluten-Free Kitchen

Today we’re guest blogging at Celiacs In The House for the Gluten-Free Kitchen Series. I love that her blog focuses on eating for what works for personal health, and that she eats without a label – a diet most of you would be intimately familiar with! We’re so honored that Wendy asked us to contribute our kitchen to her round-up and hope you enjoy its story! If you didn’t read it yet, Wendy also wrote a lovely review for Eat Like a Dinosaur that warmed our dino hearts! When we bought our house from foreclosure back in 2009, it was a mess. We live in Fairfax County of...

Eat Like a Dinosaur: Video and More!

I’m too excited to make this a long post. In case you hadn’t heard me on repeat for the last few months, we’ve got a book coming out soon. We’ve got a section of our site dedicated to more info on it, but here’s the gist: it’s about eating real food, as a family; getting kids excited about cooking; spending time together and bringing joy to things that sometimes can make you feel different. But I’ve written enough about that. How about a video that explains it better? p.s. can we give a big round of applause to Matt for doing that himself? p.s.s. can...

Our 10 Year Renewal – Part 4 of 5, as told in pictures

We were lucky enough to have gifted photographer friends attend our wedding. This post is entirely in thanks to them, without whom only a fraction of these photos (all of the not great ones) would exist.  My introduction is simple: Here’s the story and the romance of our day told through photos. This was Matt’s first time putting together a video like this and I just couldn’t be happier. I love the technique he used to set the photos in motion with the audio of our exchanging of vows in the background. We hope you enjoy it too, and get to feel like you were there...

A video interview with the real authors of Eat Like a Dinosaur

Cole and Finian got super excited when we told them we had shared the news about our book on the website. To a kid, a secret is a big deal. And since the book has been a large part of our lives for the past several months, this was a huge moment for them. We’ve been talking about how the timeline for a book works, and they knew this was a big milestone. As soon as Cole got home from school, he asked to see the book on Amazon. We talked about how many millions there were on the site, but that ours was moving up lists because people loved our ideas and were already buying it. He watched...

Video Blog ep4: Breastfeeding Q&A and Grain-Free Lactation Cookies

I realize quite a few of our readers don’t have a need for this post, but it’s one of our most frequented question topics and worth discussing.  As a reminder, I have entirely breastfed all three of our boys – but Wesley is by far the most healthy.  I’ve successfully pumped milk for one year with them all, and delayed solids until they each were ready (varying times). If that’s something you’d like to give a try, then this post is for you! In the below video I do a demonstration (this IS work safe) on how to hold and latch your newborn for breastfeeding,...

Be A Team: Healthful Eating – Video Blog Ep 3

Saturday night Matt and I went out to dinner, on a date.  We chose a local grass-fed burger joint.  To our left, mom and dad were giving their kids PB&J from home with canned mandarin oranges.  To our right, a 6 year-old was being rude, screaming at her dad to relinquish the chocolate milk shake in order for her to have it prior to eating her meal. Eventually, he let her have it. Matt and I sat, baffled. It was really, really sad to watch. Kids not eating burgers?! Our boys would’ve been digging into lettuce wrapped burgers without coming up for air! Matt and I have always had...
