Packing the diaper bag for a toddler may be a little trickier than for an infant, or at least in my case it was. When my babies were infants I didn't need to worry about snacks and bottles, water or meals. Their food source was me, and aside from a change of clothes, diapers and wipes, I didn't need to carry much for them. Now that my little guy is older things are slightly complicated. We are gone from the time I drop my girls off until it's ...

Getting Into A Good Night time Routine With Baby
This post was brought to you by Procter & Gamble. All opinions are my own. You've probably read a few advice stories on how to get your toddler into a decent nighttime routine. This isn't one of them. I'm totally guilty of not properly getting my first two children into a night time routine until we moved into our new home. At that point I had a 4 year old and a 1 year old. In our previous home getting into a routine was difficult because ...

Recipes Baby Will Like #GerberBabies
All three of my kids started the same eating habits from the time they started solids. They didn't like simple purees and they mostly preferred foods with some texture. It scared me at first, because my oldest only had two teeth for nearly a year, but she learned to use her gums to mash the food. My little guy is following suit and he likes to have some texture to his food as well. He's got a three bite rule- he will try anything but not ...
Keeping kids comfortable and safe on car rides
After my son was hospitalized for a virus last year, my husband and I decided to keep our travels local. You think you have it all figured out by the third kid, but then they throw you for a loop. While we aren't naive to the fact that any one of us can become ill while on vacation regardless of our method of travel, we prefer to stay grounded and not too far from home. Since last year we've taken at least one car trip a month and pretty much ...
So Many Reasons I #LoveCarters
When I found out my third baby was a boy, I knew it was time to go shopping for new clothes. Since my first two were girls I didn't need much in the way of baby gear and clothing, but with a new boy would give me a reason to shop! I shopped all the sales and went back to the store I always loved for baby clothes- . I always felt that Carter's Baby Clothing was true to size, used quality materials that were not only soft and vibrant, but also ...
Back to School In Style With Kids Foot Locker
Back to school season has officially started in some states but here in NYC we have a few more weeks of last minute sunshine, pool, and shopping to do. I've just about finished the supply lists, but clothing shopping feels like an ongoing task in itself. My kids seem to be in a race to see whether they can wear out their clothes before they outgrow them. To keep them stylish from head to toe, Kids Foot Locker sent us an full outfit , including ...
A different way to get to school
Getting to school each morning was hectic last year. I had my girls in two different schools at opposite parts of town. Now they are in the same school and we can slow down a little bit in the morning and walk together. Since the weather is still nice, it's been quite enjoyable walking all three kids to school in the morning. I have the baby in the stroller and both girls on their scooters. My middle daughter is in Pre-K, so she's too ...
