I have had the privilege to travel around the world.

Not gunna lie… I LOVE a baby in a onesie! Not having to wrangle a wiggling/kicking body back into pants is a relief. Unfortunately, fall is coming, and with that is colder weather here in Michigan. BOO! I really do not think my son would appreciate it if I made him go pant-less during the…

Posted on August 24, 2013January 19, 2014 by Shanda

My mom instilled a love for music in me at a young age, so when I became a mother, it was my desire to pass on this love to my son, but I don’t want him to like just “any” music. I want him to listen to music that is uplifting and God honoring. If…

Posted on August 20, 2013August 20, 2013 by Shanda

As a mother to an exclusively breastfed little boy, I have often had to feed my son in public. The bigger he has gotten, the harder it is to keep him covered while nursing though. With traditional nursing covers, I began to notice that his wiggling little body would billow the fabric to the side…
