Getting a full night's sleep is almost comical when you have children at home, but most people will tell you they can function better when they do get a good amount of shut eye. Unfortunately, my sleep issues started from way before I had children. I always had a hard time falling and staying asleep. It wasn't until I brought my first baby home from the hospital that falling asleep no longer became an issue- since I was so over tired I could ...

Teething Relief Can Vary By Child
It must be baby season. I keep seeing updates and pictures on socialmedia of people with their new bundles and I just can't help but get nostalgic. Of course, I will be doing the same in a few weeks so my nostalgia will be replaced by real life moments and experiences I've already lived through with my two older girls. Like those very first days in the hospital where it's just me and baby. Or the first few nights at home where we are ...
Check out the latest summer Movies! #FandangoFamily
Since watching the preview for Disney's Inside Out, my daughter and I have been eagerly awaiting to see it. There's just one problem- our newest member of the family is making his appearance about a week before the release of the film, and I doubt I will venture out to a movie during the time Inside Out is in the theaters. I do have a plan, however. Since Inside Out comes out around Father's Day, I was thinking of ordering tickets and ...

There’s Something We Aren’t Talking About #Underwareness #ad
Although we are living during a time where everything is out in the open and people can easily share their story, there is something a lot of women are afraid to talk about. Bladder Leakage. It happens more often than you think, and just by speaking with my friends who have gone through labor and delivered their babies, I've noticed that just about every one of my friends have been affected. I also realized that although I have my babies through ...
Arm & Hammer #ClumpAndSeal Keeps Kitty Happy!
If you've been following me for a while, then you may have already been introduced to Phoebe, my 15 year old kitty. Phoebe doesn't actually live with me, but that's her choice. When I got married and moved out of my moms house, we decided it was best to keep Phoebe in the home she had grown up in, or the house she rules. You see, Phoebe, like most cats, has a big personality. She's learned how to work her family members to get what she ...
We All Need A Little Humor To Get Through This Parenting Gig! #MomsRule #IC #ad
There are some days when you have to take a step back from the whole parenting gig and just laugh. Whether you are a parent or not, you may know that parenting is not for the faint of heart. There are so many wonderful moments and experiences that engrain themselves in your soul and last a lifetime, then there are the others that are equally significant but not as magical. Like the moment you changed your newborn for the first time and realized ...
