real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
As a family that is always on the go, we are constantly looking for new and exciting ways to make travel easy and fun for our little guy. Nothing is more frustrating to my two year old than playing with his toys while safely strapped into his carseat and accidentally dropping something – unable to…
This is a Kickstarter campaign for UpWeGo. I am writing this promoting with the hopes of receiving an UpWeGo in the event of them reaching their fundraising goal. I can not tell you the number of times I have lifted my 2 year old into his high chair, only to have my back protest in…
Ever since I met my husband, we have spent countless hours in the great outdoors. Hiking where human foot barely travels is something we LOVE to do! To be in the midst of nature and knowing there is something beyond the walls of our home is something we count a privilege. It’s just us the…
As I sat down at my computer to begin writing, I took a few moments to rub my hands together and enjoy the rich smooth texture of soft hands. Why? Because I had just put on a dab of Crabtree & Evelyn hand therapy! This silky hand cream leaves my hands nourished and yearning for more…
When I was first introduced to Chic Wrap, I thought they were super cute! The patterns were bold, exciting and just downright fun. Pops of color added to any kitchen can turn it from bland to exciting… Chic Wrap definitely “spices” up your kitchen. So they are cute, but are they functional? I was a skeptic…
I’m really excited to share with you this amazing box of HOPPIness (see what I did there?). Hoppi Box offers a quarterly subscription where a box filled with fun treasures for your child arrives on your doorstep. The excitement that I saw in my son’s eyes as I opened the door and told him this…
I feel a little vain saying this, but I NEED a selfie stick! As I review numerous products throughout the year, I find myself feeling like I have t-rex arms. You know, arms that are too short and look like they are bending at weird angles as I try desperately to snap the photo I want….
My family and I are constantly on the go… there is a whole wide world out there to explore and we want to see it all as a family!! One of our favorite summer activities is camping. When you have a little one though, camping becomes a whole different ball game. Who knew someone so…
My son is like the changing of the seasons. Better yet, he can be like a thunderstorm that comes careening across the horizon without any warning. His likes, dislikes and preferences change from day to day or hour to hour! Our sippy cup collection is a testimony to this daily/hourly change. If you look in…
I love watching my little guy play! He’s running around chasing our dog, he’s climbing up hills/steps/slides, he’s squatting down looking at tiny bugs, he’s flinging mud and chasing butterflies… he’s a boy on the move! As much as I would love for him to play barefoot all the time, that is not always possible…
There’s something rejuvenating and introspective (maybe even a little romantic!) about curling up on the couch in the morning with a blanket wrapped around my legs and a warm cup of tea in my hands. As I watch the morning sun burst through my windows and creep across the floor, finally make it’s way to…
Did you know that your skin is your largest organ? It absorbs and processes everything that you touch! Not only that, but how your skin looks and feels can speak volumes about your overall health. I personally know when I have not been drinking enough water. My skin feels dry, tight and you can see…
