If bed time with your kids becomes a 3 ring circus, then we have something in common. Yes, I've established a routine. Yes, I explain my expectations. Yes, I've followed every ounce of advice people have given me... And it gets better for a few weeks and then something happens: a vacation, holiday, special weekend, and our sleep schedule gets messed up again. Daylight savings is this weekend and I know it will rock my kids sleep pattern for a few ...

Give the Gift of Kidoodle.TV This Season! #MC #sponsored @KidoodleTV
I would be lying to you if I told you I don't let my kids watch tv. When I had my first daughter I limited tv time to about a half hour per day after she was a year old. The colder the weather got, the harder it was to get her out to the park or to mommy and me classes. We became members at a children's museum near by, but watching children's programming on tv was still prominent during times we were home. I started to notice her speech rapidly ...
Halloween HairStyles with Suave Kids (Princess Belle Hair Tutorial)
What is your little one going to be for Halloween. I have two little girls and lucky enough to still have a say when it comes to my youngest daughter's costume. My older daughter has grown into a very independent 4 year old that expects things a specific way.

Crocs Keeps Feet Comfy for All Day Back To School Footwear!
When it comes to children's fashion, I look for functional pieces that look great but that are also comfortable. I have to admit, I'm a very simple girl when it comes to fashion. A pair of jeans and a t shirt, complete with a pair of sneakers and I'm out the door. My daughter, on the other hand, will not leave the house if she is not fully accessorized. From a sparkly headband that MUST match her shirt to pretty bracelets - this girl can probably ...
4th of July Fun, Family, Food, and Finger Burning
When I was a kid, fireworks were available and no one thought twice about lighting them up for the Fourth of July. We would pick up supposedly child-friendly things like sparklers, morning glories, and those pop or snap type of fireworks (I forget the name.) My mom had some limits - no firecrackers or anything titled with letters and numbers (like M80.) Those were reserved for the adults and children had to be far away from the action. Where ...
Stella Cove Swimwear for Kids
Beach season will be here before we know it, so now is a good time to start thinking about what your little ones will be wearing to the beach or pool! I like to have my kids protected, so I generally stay away from two piece swimsuits for my girls, but that doesn't mean that I won't put them in one for the kiddie pool which is usually in the shade. My girls are just as excited about beach season as I am, and we have been seeing hints of ...
