real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
I have always loved back to school time! I enjoyed school as a kid, and I just love the change from the fun and freedom of summer back to regular days and schedules! Change is always good, and as much as I love summer and all the fun it brings, it’s good to get back…
We are just nearing the end of national breastfeeding month! I love that there is a month set aside for this! Breastfeeding is a beautiful part of life, and there are so many products out there to support moms in this. There are things to help moms who need a little boost in their supply, products…
We have found our new favorite yard game! We have played it at the beach, in our yard, and even at a family wedding! It has some volleyball elements and some four square rules to it, but it is an awesome game of its own. I was first introduced to the game on our family…
Finding healthy baking options isn’t always easy. I try to keep good healthy ingredients at home like wheat germ, oat bran, and whole wheat flour so that when I do come across a good recipe for a healthy muffin or bread, I am prepared. Most often though, I have to go out and find an…
Bath time has been a favorite for my toddler since he was a baby! I remember when he started crawling, he would make his way as fast as he could through the house,as soon as he could hear the bath water running. He’d crawl under the table and over the chair legs and climb right…
I have a sweet tooth! I wish that I didn’t crave sweets as much as I do, but I really enjoy chocolate, caramel, baked goods, and just about every other sweet thing out there! My husband is the same way, so our house often has goodies around. I love finding new monthly subscription boxes, and…
I love when I can’t put down a good book I am reading, and I hope that I can help my children learn to love reading too! So much can be learned through readingbooks,and that love for learning can start when kids are little. We read to our kids every night before bed, and I…
One of the most exciting things and one of the most challenging things about becoming a mom is nursing! It comes so naturally for some and can be a struggle for others. I am so thankful I’ve been able to nurse both my kids, and I love how it easy it is to feed my…
Cars, trains, tractors, and trucks! These are a few of my little 2 year old’s favorite things. He loves nothing more than to be on a big piece of farm machinery with his dad or grandpa, and if I remember correctly he said the word tractor long before he said “momma.” That’s ok, he’s still…
In a couple weeks we are getting ready to celebrate our ten year anniversary! Whenever you look back on something, it’s amazing to think about all that has happened over time. I have specifically been looking through things from the time around our wedding as I’m putting together a little gift for my husband. I’ve come…
Home to me has always been about the people there and not so much the place. As much as I love to have a clean, nice place to live, I love even more making memories with our family. Our home is still a work in progress! With an old farmhouse things are always coming up…
Summer is in full swing at our house with our big vacation behind us and lots more fun stuff planned for the months ahead! I love so many summer traditions including bonfires, camping, pool days, beach days, and grilling in the backyard. As soon as it’s warm enough (or even a little before) we start…
