If you haven't heard, Disney came out with a new hit movie- Inside Out. I was able to take my oldest daughter to a special screening of Inside Out just days before I had my son, and I was so happy to share that moment with her. The movie was amazing for both kids and adults, and sent a positive message and a reminder that our kids should be able to express themselves the way they are most comfortable. In lieu of the movie, my daughter is now ...

Elmo Comes to Life With New Interactive #PlayAllDayElmo #IC #ad
I haven't met a child who doesn't love Elmo at some point or another during toddlerhood. My oldest daughter would have me fast forward each episode of Sesame Street until we reached Elmo's world. My younger daughter loved all her older sister's Elmo toy hand-me-downs and squealed with joy when we took her to see Sesame Street Live. My son at 4 months is still too young to understand, but I'd be shocked if he showed anything less than adoration ...
Your All In One Coffee Brewing Machine: The Ninja Coffee Bar
Everyone that knows me knows how much I love my coffee. I even have a coffee routine in the morning where I will enjoy my java fix while I pump so my baby doesn't get too much caffeine, and I will give him that expressed milk until the caffeine has dissipated in my system. Just recently I decided to give up on my one-cup brewer because I found myself needing to make at least half a pot of coffee for myself, my hubby, and whoever else would pop ...

Finally, A More Accurate Way to Check for TB! #TBBloodTest #IC #ad
As teachers, my husband and I are required to get tested for tuberculosis (TB). I never thought much about the test since it was required, until I had a questionable result right before my first year of teaching. After a day of receiving the arm-prick with a penned circle around it, my arm was slightly irritated at the injection site with a reddish haze within the doctor's mark. It took a few doctors to read the irritated mark on my ...
