Have you ever asked a 5 year old what love is? Or maybe you've asked them where babies come from- well, I've asked my oldest daughter, who is 4 1/2 where she thinks babies come from and it's always the same answer- "you go to college, and when you are done you can have a baby." I explained to her that in my last year of college I was pregnant with her, and during my semester finishing up my Master's degree I became pregnant with her sister. So ...

We Showed Our #DisneySide and Had a Party!
My girls have always been into Disney, but it wasn't until after they visited Disney World this past Christmas that they really felt the magic of all Disney had to offer. You can say we are a Disney Family because our birthday parties center around a Disney theme, and our playdates generally involve a Disney flick in the background while the children do a craft. When we were asked to host a #DisneySide party, my oldest daughter was just as ...

Disney Junior Live On Tour! Pirate & Princess Adventure is Coming to NYC
It's been almost a year since I first saw advertisements for the Disney Junior Live show. I have to say, when we first saw the commercial on Disney Jr, my girls and I were met with excitement, anticipation, and then when we found out the dates, disappointment. It was SO FAR AWAY, and yet, here we are, nearly a year later and ready to finally go to our first Disney Jr Live show! My girls are fans of the Disney Junior crew, including Sofia the ...
Join Seventh Generation and Help #fighttoxins #sponsored
Years ago, a close friend of mine had warned me that although our drinking water was filtered, there were many toxins still making their way into our water supply. Her comments made me scared just thinking about the things I could have been ingesting, and I wondered if other's knew what she knew. Leave it to Seventh Generation to take steps to ensuring our world is safer. If you don't know about Seventh Generation, let me tell you a ...
How Big is a Billion Contest with @HRBlock! #HowBigIsABillion #sponsored
My preschooler is learning to count to higher numbers and trying to grasp the concept of hundreds, thousands, millions, and billions. She tells me there are a billion students in her school. While it may seem like she does have a lot of classmates, we all know there aren't a billion. She asks me what a billion looks like and it's hard for me to make her understand at such a young age. "Are there a billion m&ms in the bag, ...
