Having a properly stocked diaper bag is easier said than done. The problem is, I don't always pack the same or have the same bag with me at all times. For short trips, I don't need much more than a few diapers and wipes. For longer day trips, I need snacks, meals, and a change of clothes for baby. By baby #3, you'd think I have the hang of this by now, but the truth is I've become a little cocky in my choices. Who needs baby items ...

Baby’s First Swimming Lesson With #SwimWays! #IC ad
Summer is just around the corner and it's not too early to start getting prepared. My two oldest kids are learning to swim and have ditched their floatation devices now that they are comfortable in the water. Being a non-swimmer, having my kids comfortable in the water and truly enjoying their time this summer without fear is important to me. The 5th annual National Learn to Swim Day is this Saturday, 5/21, and while we can't celebrate ...
Using Diaper Coupons to Stock Up on the Basics #KrogerLittleSnugglers #Pmedia #ad
When planning for baby, we often get so wrapped up in the big-ticket items like baby gear that we forget the basics. When I came home from the hospital with my first baby, I thought I had everything I needed. The only problem is I believed everyone I spoke to that said newborn-size diapers and clothes aren't worth it. I should have listened to my mommy-instinct. But baby #2 and 3 I really did have it all(most) figured out, and stocked up on my ...
Our Favorite Developmental Toys for Baby
I've saved most of the toddler toys my girls used when they were younger knowing I would have another baby. When I passed down my oldest's toys to my second born, there were no issues of jealousy and possessiveness from my oldest. Now with baby #3, my middle daughter has become quite possessive over her baby toys and won't let her brother play with them. So, I find myself looking into inexpensive toys for little boys. I love wooden toddler toys ...
An Expectant Mother’s Day Gift Basket #BabbleBoxx
Mother's Day is fast approaching and getting mom something special can be as simple as clicking a button. Living in a digital world, we have access to many ideas and products that any gift can truly be personalized. When I purchase a gift for someone, it is usually a compilation of items I think or know they would love, and I create a gift basket with these items. Pinterest can be a great place to get your idea started, but finding items you know ...
Night Time #PottyTrainingTips and a $2 Coupon! #PullUpsPersonality #DGcoupons
I really thought I would be done with Pull-Ups® Training Pants by now. My middle child is fully potty trained during the day but is completely untrained during the night. My oldest set the bar high- potty training fully just weeks after her second birthday and fully potty trained at night within a month. The expense to keep my daughter dry at night can add up quickly, but thankfully there are coupons available for Pull-Ups® Training Pants. Here ...
Ratchet and Clank Comes To Life on the Big Screen!
This post is sponsored by Ratchet and Clank and SheKnows Media. Now that both my girls are at a good age for the movie theater, we've been on the lookout for the next best children's flick. When my oldest mentioned Ratchet & Clank from a recent trailer she saw, it brought back memories of my cousin playing the Ratchet and Clank video game a decade ago. I've always loved when familiar characters from my younger days make a comeback so my ...
Gorgeous Mother’s Day Flowers from @Teleflora
My husband use to live next door to a florist and he use to always have interesting stories about two events- Valentine's Day and Mother's Day. Both events elicited double and triple-parked cars, causing a ton of traffic, and lines from the florist spanning half way up the block. I've been known to sort of turn off during these holidays and not give into the hype of Mother's Day flowers, but something's changed in the most recent years. I've ...
