I have two little fashionistas on my hands and I can almost guarantee they did not get their fashion sense from their mama. I'm a very simple sneakers, jeans, and t-shirt kind of girl. My toddler, on the other hand, will not leave the house or go to sleep without a tutu, regardless of what she is wearing underneath. My infant has a shoe obsession, and she's only 9 months old. Okay, so maybe I contributed just a little bit to her shoe addiction, ...

It’s A Potty Training Party!
My nephew is on his way to potty training! With his new little brother due in just a few weeks, my brother and sister in law are ready to get this boy out of diapers! He has a big sister who we thought would have motivated him to potty train sooner, but boys will be boys and at 3 years old, he's been fighting the potty. For the past two years, I hosted a Pull Ups PlayDate party for my toddler and her friends. The first year we invited all her ...
The Answer To Our Toddler Sleep Issues Was a New Mattress!
My hubby and I have always wanted a big family, and then we realized that our genes don't produce children that believe in sleeping. It's been a rough 3 years with limited sleep and trying just about everything, including the dreaded "cry it out." At some point we decided to live by "this too shall pass" and allowed our toddler to determine her own sleep pattern- big mistake. What does a baby know about sleep schedules? So, right before the new ...
Awesome Prices for Kid’s Clothing at The Children’s Place!
We all know how quickly kids grow, and finding reasonably priced clothing is a must! My daughter has easily changed three sizes in the past year, and her clothes look new, mostly because she only wore them a few times before she grew into the next size! Thankfully, I have another little girl that will be receiving LOTS of hand me downs from her big sister. I mainly shop at The Children's Place. I love that they always have some discount on ...
Baby Wearing with Hotslings!
Baby wearing is a must when you have more than one child! I have a few baby carriers that I wear depending on what I am doing. When my infant doesn't feel well, I wear a soft baby carrier to keep her close and snuggled on me. When we are shopping or walking around the city, I wear a bigger carrier that provides comfortable shoulder straps. Recently, I saw a mother sporting a sling that only went across half her body as her baby lounged on her ...
Cleaning Baby’s Clothes with #PurexBaby
I might be a little over domesticated when I say that my favorite scent is that of freshly cleaned laundry. You can see me sniffing each piece of clothing as I pull it out of the basket to fold it, and yes, I enjoy every minute of it! My husband didn't really understand why I loved this scent so much, until we got married and I did his laundry. He never knew what he was missing! Since then, I had to change my laundry detergent quite a few ...
JJ Cole Collections: Hat, Mittens, & Booties {Giveaway}
Brrr! It's really getting cold out there! When my first baby was born, she was still in her infant car seat during the winter months, so it was easy to keep her warm without bulky clothing in her car seat. I used the JJ Cole BundleMe in her car seat, which kept her warm, safely. With baby #2, I estimated that she would have still been in her infant car seat this winter, but due to discomfort from her fractured clavicle, we had to switch her to ...
Bright Starts Sunnyside Safari Saucer
My baby girl is quickly growing up and exploring her surroundings. She's crawling, standing, and even taking steps while holding on to things. She doesn't like to be contained in a playpen anymore, so it was time to find her an entertainment center that would keep her happy and busy. It was a no-brainer that we would choose a Bright Starts entertainment center. I think we had more issues trying to figure out which one we ...
