Although the weather is getting nicer, there are some days we just can't get outside due to the rain, and even bad allergies. Those days are becoming increasingly rare since we find any excuse to get in the yard and play as a family, but on the days we spend indoors, we still find ways to play and bond. My girls are getting older and sharing in the favorite pastimes of their parents, like good old fashioned video games. The Wii U is the ...

We Trust The Chicco KeyFit30 To Bring Baby Home Safely
If there's one main concern you have as a parent, it's safety. From the moment you conceive, you worry about what you eat, every ache you feel, and the best ways to keep your baby safe after they arrive.

Stylish Diaper Bags? Must Be From @TWELVElittle!
When it comes to the things I tote around with me, I waiver on minimalist and over-prepared mom. At the playground- I'm THAT mom that has a mini first aid kit if your kid falls and gets a booboo. I bring along extra snacks to share, and change of clothes for whatever the day may bring. But some days, you will catch me with a wristlet, only holding what I absolutely need for that moment- my phone, license, a credit card, and enough cash to buy an ...
The Latest Trends in Hasbro! #PlayLikeHasbro
When it comes to children learning, I'm a big believer in play. You will often hear my girls groaning when I take away their iPads and tell them they HAVE to play with each other or their toys. After all, we have a houseful of toys and if they will be taking up space, then they will be played with. My girls will pout for the first few minutes but it's not long before I see magic taking place. They create scenarios together through pretend play. ...

We Love The Unique Shape of @Avent_US Natural Bottles!
When it comes to bottles, I've tried them all! With my first baby I chose a bottle system that was most conducive to pumping while I was at work. I had no issues with her taking the bottle I offered her. My second baby was gave me more of a challenge. She didn't like the same bottles her sister took, or the bottles that came with my pump, or any other bottle I tried for that matter. At that same time, Avent had introduced their natural bottle ...
Why We Chose A SpaceSaver High Chair + Enter To Win a Baby Bundle from Fisher Price!
Things can be very different when planning for your first baby as opposed to planning for your third baby. With the first, you think need everything- gear, clothes, and questionable gadgets that get tossed before baby turns 6 months. This time around, I'm quite the minimalist and anything that serves it's purpose and lasts long can stay. Fisher Price has always been a trusted name for all things baby and kid. From gear to toys and even ...
