		<description><![CDATA[Somehow (overnight it seems) I became the mother of a toddler.  And with that, our crag &#8220;issues&#8221; have shifted a bit.  No longer am I trying to balance a soft carrier with a baby on the front and a pack full of gear on my back (sigh of relief&#8230;).  Instead I&#8217;ve got a big boy that&#8217;s not quite as big as he thinks he is, who often insists upon hiking in himself, only to discover halfway through that his little legs are, to quote my Maw Maw, &#8220;plum wore out.&#8221;  He never asks to nurse at the crag anymore, so&#8230;<a class="contRead" href="http://cragmama.com/2012/06/creating-a-cragbaby-the-toddler-years/">Read the rest of this entry &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[  Recently I was asked about how our family handles Cragbaby&#8217;s enthusiastic climbing skills in and around the house &#8211; and more specifically, in areas that aren&#8217;t safe to practice heel-hooks and fist jams.  In non-climbing families, its probably easiest to implement a few hard and fast rules.  For example &#8211; NO CLIMBING.  For obvious reasons that mixed message would cause a lot of confusion in our house.  Though we are definitely learning as we go, here are a few concepts that have proved to be helpful for us &#8211; by all means they aren&#8217;t gospel, and I am very interested&#8230;<a class="contRead" href="http://cragmama.com/2012/04/climbing-rules-and-regulations/">Read the rest of this entry &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As I said in yesterday&#8217;s Sentimental Snapshots post, I&#8217;m not so sure that &#8220;Cragbaby&#8221; is such a good moniker anymore&#8230;but that for nostalgia purposes, we&#8217;re gonna let it stick as long as he&#8217;ll tolerate it.  But regardless of semantics,  our modus operandi at the crag has certainly evolved a good bit from those early weeks with an infant.  Since we&#8217;re celebrating moving from baby to big boy phase, I thought it would be fun to have a look back at C&#8217;s favorite &#8220;cragtivities&#8221; from the past 2 years.  Hopefully this stroll down memory lane will provide some good ideas to all the parents of very&#8230;<a class="contRead" href="http://cragmama.com/2012/03/favorite-cragtivities-for-the-under-2-set/">Read the rest of this entry &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Probably the most common question I get from non-climbers is, &#8220;What does Cragbaby do all day while you guys climb?&#8221;  I realized that while I generally give a recap of all of the climbing-related mumbo jumbo the grown-ups do on the weekends, I don&#8217;t usually go into much detail about the kind of adventures that Cragbaby gets himself into!  Since we just recently got back from a 4 day trip to Kentucky where C&#8217;s personal photographer (not really, but she might as well be!) got some fantastic shots of him and his various &#8220;cragtivities,&#8221; it only seemed fitting to let&#8230;<a class="contRead" href="http://cragmama.com/2011/12/a-day-in-the-life-cragbaby-style/">Read the rest of this entry &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ever since I came up with the idea for the “Creating a Cragbaby” series, I knew I would need to do a post on camping how-to’s since its such a big part of climbing trips, but for some reason or another I never got around to it.  As Cragbaby is getting older, however, I&#8217;m realizing that we are fast approaching a different “phase” of camping – helpful tips that worked initially are no longer needed, while we’ve had to find solutions for new situations that never crossed our minds during the early months. So I figured I better go ahead&#8230;<a class="contRead" href="http://cragmama.com/2011/08/creating-a-cragbaby-camping-with-infants-under-one-is-fun/">Read the rest of this entry &#8594;</a>]]></description>

Food at the crag was easy &#8211; as long as he was with Mommy he wouldn&#8217;t go hungry!  Even when it came time to introduce solids we were still relying on breastmilk for the bulk of his nutrition, so it wasn&#8217;t until around the 9 or 10 month mark that we had to start planning out C&#8217;s crag menu along with our own.  Now that Cragbaby is a big boy, we&#8217;ve had to devise our own plan for making sure our picky toddler is putting&#8230;<a class="contRead" href="http://cragmama.com/2011/06/because-a-cragbabys-gotta-eat/">Read the rest of this entry &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;On Choosing a Crag (Part 1)&#8221; discussed some tips for choosing a great crag with a perfect approach.  This is the continuation of that post &#8211; applying those ideas to real life scenarios.  The following is a compilation of several baby and kid-friendly climbing areas that our family frequents throughout the Southeast. STARTER CRAGS -  From local jaunts to world-class rock, these areas are great first time crags suitable for the whole family, regardless of age. Pilot Mountain, NC - Certainly not a destination crag, but easy access and short approaches make it a great first-time spot.
