Here’s something I bet you don’t know about me. My all time favorite cereal is Rice Krispies. With milk, without milk, in a bowl, in a cup, out of a baggie…it doesn’t matter. I love them. Rice Krispie treats? Yes, please. Obviously I love the taste of them, but I’ve grown to love them even Continue Reading …
So my daughter has been eyeing a little pink cosmetic bag that arrived a few weeks ago that’s been in my closet. She’s also been uber-inquisitive when I’ve had my period lately, noticing I’m in the bathroom more frequently, products more noticeable, etc. As part of the Kotex Ambassador program, we received these little bags Continue Reading …
Each of my kids has hated diaper changes. Screaming, squirming, squealing in delight when they squirmed away from me- these are the memories I have from diaper changes. My kids could squirm away from any change and out of just about any diaper in no time at all, no matter how little they were. Babies Continue Reading …

I am still in disbelief that all three of my children are potty trained. Now, my oldest has been accident free for 18 months, and my just about 5 year old has one accident a year??

Well, anything that fits into my Fellowes Laminator. Emergency cards? Laminated. Fun printable activities? Laminated. Name tags for the kids to wear the first few weeks of school? Continue Reading …
Earlier this morning, I was with the kids in a busy local shopping plaza parking lot. This is an older parking lot and it does not fit today’s parking needs, to say the least. It’s dangerous and narrow and I only go there because I love that particular grocery store. Trying to leave a parking Continue Reading …
We try very hard to offer healthy snack options for our children. I’ve struggled with weight my whole life, and I’m trying to instill healthy habits from an early age in the hopes that my children don’t follow this particular set of footprints of mine. One of the things I’m thrilled that my children love Continue Reading …
Listen, as a mother of two girls, and having been a daughter to my mother for many years, picking the “day” is never going to be easy. It probably won’t be comfortable. Your tween won’t be any more comfortable than you are, but I promise you, once you do Pick Your Day and have The Continue Reading …
Today was one of those days. We’re in the middle of gutting our bathroom and I had a solid hour of time helping my husband in the bathroom this afternoon while my youngest napped. That meant the older 2 kids were left to their own devices downstairs. For an hour. In that hour, my children Continue Reading …
