With the kids home for the summer it sure feels like a celebration everyday. We can sleep later, get out of the hum drum routine, and visit with friends frequently. Whether we are hosting play dates or attending play dates, sweet treats are usually on the menu as an after lunch pick me up. I've never heard of or tried frozen custard, so when I saw it in the freezer section of my local supermarket, I had to check it out. One of my ...

Amidst the controversies we read about on social media, I'm so happy to share things that are positive.

Children's Miracle Network Hospitals are not only available to treat children during any health issue that arises from broken bones to childhood blood disorders amongst many other issues, but ...
Newborn Diapering Routines With #WaterWipes. #IC #AD @BabiesRUs
Babies are pure and for that reason, most hospitals recommend using only a damp cloth with water to clean baby's bottom during the first few weeks. After having my first baby, I learned this was a bigger challenge than it seemed. I had a c-section and the pain from recovery had me taking the easy way out and skipping over the recommendation of just pure water and I started using wipes immediately. It wasn't long before my baby's bottom was ...
Getting Early, Accurate At Home Results with First Response #IC #AD
Being a mother is something I had always envisioned for myself. Even in my earliest years of elementary school, while all the other kids made their parents proud with ambitions of being doctors and lawyers, I would simply state, "I want to be a mommy when I grow up." It was as simple as that. Sure, I wanted a career, but not as much as I wanted a handful of babies around me like little ducklings. Now that I am a mother of 3, I know this is ...
Lightweight Summer Styles from #FabKids
The past two months my daughters each received an adorable outfit from FabKids. My youngest received the Fire Princess dress and my oldest, the color block dress. Both outfits have held up to multiple wearings and washings, and we are excited to continue a monthly style update with FabKids. This month was a little different. I decided I was going to choose which outfit my daughter's received without showing them their options. Once in a while I ...
Lakeshore Learning Offers Fun and Crafts To Beat the Summer Slump!
There are some days you need to just shut off your electronic devices and do something fun. My girls have the right idea- when the iPads are off, they go for the craft supplies. I love watching what they come up with and hanging their art work on display in the play room so they can take pride in their creations. Over the summer, there will inevitably be days where it's too rainy or too hot to get outside, and crafts will be a great way to ...
Cute Swim Styles for Kids from @SnapperRock with UV protection
I've finally convinced my oldest daughter to try swimming lessons again. After a bad experience 3 years ago left her terrified of swim instructors, I promised her a new swim school and her choice of swimsuit to wear for lessons. She agreed, and I'm hoping she will gain a very important skill. My little one, on the other hand, is fearless and needs to be taught how to swim in order to avoid an emergency situation in the ...
Check Out The Latest Steam Mop from @SharkCleaning!
These past 9 months have been quite interesting. My husband and I always joked that I'm a horrible pregnant person but this last one really kicked my butt. My husband wanted to keep things normal for the kids, so he's picked up a lot of my household routine including helping with laundry, occasionally cooking, and helping with the girls, it's no wonder why he's starting to have a say in a lot of the products I use in the home. For example- no ...
