There's nothing like being up at 3am with a sick baby. As a matter of fact, I'm writing this as I lay next to my finally-sleeping, very sick preschooler. When she's sick, she brings back a flood of memories from when I was a kid- constantly sick with multiple bouts of strep which eventually led to removing my tonsils and relieving me from the countless months on antibiotics and missed school days. Kids get sick, and it's a rite of passage ...

Enjoying Dress Up Time With Our Favorite Princesses

We Are Ready for out #BigDay #Tomorrow with @KelloggsUS
Setting up a routine is so important for children. When they know what to expect, tantrums may occur less often, and they seek comfort in having a familiar routine. Our routine each morning consists of getting dressed, using the bathroom, brushing teeth, and heading into the kitchen for breakfast. Some days are harder than others when it comes to getting my oldest to eat breakfast before school, but setting expectations and explaining why ...
