real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
back to school fashion, school supplies
I have one very girly girl, one that we aren’t sure yet and one somewhere in the middle. My one in the middle is my oldest. Some days she loves to be super girly, other days she loves to get down and wear her gym clothes. She is very curious about EVERYTHING. So when I…
I absolutely love early elementary “Back To School” shopping lists! Yes, of course we had a few more items on our BTS shopping list this year (backpacks, shoes, lunch boxes), but I was pumped to find that 90% of our Back To School shopping happened in just one section — The Crayola section!!! We love…
My kids start school in t minus 5 days and I am knee deep in bags of Back To School gear and supplies and lists of things we need to do and things we have yet to get. Because, despite my best efforts, I am that procrastinating mom who put everything off to the week before. {hanging…
Reading is something we have always enjoyed doing together as a family. I’m so thankful that my girls love to read! Taking trips to the library to grab a few new reads happens quite frequently in our home. The best part of buying books however, is getting to keep them and not be on a…
It’s been a few years since I first stepped foot on campus as a college freshman but, watching our local college welcome back students for the Fall semester, I am instantly reminded of all of those feelings. Excitement. Nervousness. Uncertainty. A clean slate and new beginning. I love it! And, while many things have changed…
Back to School shopping is fun. Scoring great deals on items that are necessary makes it even more fun! I recently made a trip to Wal-Mart to pick up some essentials that Lili had to get for 2nd grade this year. A list was sent home, and we needed to get the items and check…
Growing up, my Mama was always the queen of notes. I’d find little notes tucked away in my backpack or books or flute case. In college, my roommate and I had completely opposite schedules a lot of the time and we would leave Post-It notes on the bathroom mirror for each other. When my husband…
This season for Back To School, SIGG will debut a glow in the dark “Monsters” collection as well as an adorable animal Hello Kitty Collection. The glow in the dark “Monsters” collection consists of four bottles that portray groovy and friendly monster characters that will appeal to both girls and boys. Two of the Monsters…
Whether it’s school or church or daycare or just when we’re out and about, I’ve probably lost approximately 465,238 bottles and sippy cups in the past 8 years. Keeping up with cups isn’t really my forte. Neither is checking the diaper bag before I leave. And with 4 children who have gone through nursery and…
With each and every passing day, the days are noticeably getting shorter. Soon we’ll be seeing more dark hours than light. Glow Pets are a great way to welcome those snuggly fall nights! Brought to us by the ever-popular creators of the Pillow Pets, Glow Pets are similar to the Pillow Pets your kids know…
I think we would all agree at this point that what goes into our kids’ bodies for meal time affects how well they can concentrate at school. But how can we keep the food real despite the busy schedules…and having to pack it all EVERY. DAY. It can work. And it is so worth it….
School starts in 3 minutes and you live 3 minutes away. “We can make it! Go! Go! Go!” As you run out the door you realize that not only do you not have on matching shoes, you haven’t had time to brush your hair. “Forget the shoes,” you think, “but I cannot go out in…
