A lot of things changed when I had kids, including the foods I ate and my definition of snacks. In play groups with my first child, I was always the parent that brought fresh fruit and veggies along with us while other parents opted for dry and/or processed snacks. I wanted to give my daughter the best start possible, and instilling proper habits was what I wanted to accomplish. Fast forward 5 years and another child later, packing ...

Chuck E Cheese’s Has A Fun Promotion! #ChuckEAndPaddington #PaddingtonMovie
There's a place my girls love to visit when it is cold and rainy, or so hot that you can't sit outside. If you guess Chuck E Cheese's, then you are correct! We go to Chuck E Cheese on the days that we can't get outside, and I love that my girls can have fun and run around doing something they enjoy- being kids. Our first trip to Chuck E Cheese was 2 years ago for my oldest daughter's graduation celebration, and after that we have made it a fun ...
Staying Connected With FiLIP 2 from @myFilipTec #sponsored
With just about everyone having a cell phone these days, I'm already struggling with the idea of what the appropriate age is to get my daughter one. She hasn't even asked for one yet, but knowing I have a way of reaching her is definitely a way to keep peace of mind some days. Knowing theft rates are high amongst students and cell phones, I needed other options aside from a traditional cell phone. I also don't want her to have the ability to call ...
Little Luna Makes Her Big Debut In The App Store
Apps are the new video games but that doesn't mean they have to be endless hours of staring at a screen. My girls both get some screen time on their iPads, but they apps they play are generally educational and something I feel would be worthwhile to their development. My oldest daughter is harder to please and the games she plays has to hold her interest. When I told her she can play a game about a farting bug, she was a little surprised, "You ...
Check Out Ghost Tunes and Find Out How You Can Win Tickets To A Garth Brooks Concert! #GarthLovesMom
It may not be Mother's Day or anywhere near it, but thinking of that word, mom, and all it's meanings is hard to escape. I constantly find myself questioning whether or not I'm evolving into the mother I imagined I would be, or what my girls think of me as their mom. I think of my own definition of motherhood and compare all the mothers I know. Then I take a step back from my thoughts and realize that we will mess up, and we will do good, and at ...
Animalz Headphones Are A Great Option for Little Ears!
Many children this holiday season already have or will be receiving handheld gaming devices. My girls each have their own tablets, and share other educational devices we own, and sometimes the sounds that emanate from both devices on at the same time can be quite..... annoying- putting it simply. When the sound coming from one of the tablets interferes with the other one, someone makes there's louder and so the volume wars begin. I had to put an ...
