I like to take way too many pictures and I most definitely am an over sharer on FB. I know I have a terrible memory and I don’t want to forget our favorite moments. While blogging and sharing photos on social media is great, I think it’s important to have hard copies of these precious memories too….
Since our Charlie is the first child to reach the size 6 diaper scene, I guess it’s time to potty train the boy because our next option is DEPENDS. He just turned 2 and he’s smart. I think he’s ready, but am I? I really dislike potty training the kids, but I hate buying diapers…

This is basically the crack version of popcorn. It’s an addictive combinations of white chocolate, pretzels, popcorn, and m&m’s. I’ll explain the name in a moment. I make this all the time. I share the recipe even more often. I give it as a teacher or Christmas gift in a tin, it makes for a great party favor at…
I often feel like all the mom stress of the day settles in my neck and shoulders. I think every mother should have a neck massage pillow from Zyllion. It’s versatile, slim, and ergonomic. It’s safe too, it comes with an automatic shut off and overheat protection. Just keep it near your favorite chair so you can take…
I have coffee every single day. I never used to drink coffee as much as I do now, but I never used to have 3 kids either. It tastes so good to me. I’m terrible about eating breakfast, but I’m all about my morning cup of joe. I also have this weird happy feeling about using…
There are a lot of stinky people and circumstances that inhabit our home. It’s not as bad as growing up with 4 brothers, but there are times that I have flashbacks to my childhood of boy smells. Diapers, burned soup, overflowing toilets, and disgusting trash cans are just a few of the causes of bad…
