real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
Parenthood is an exciting, challenging journey, and some companies are with you every step of the way. There are no perfect parents, just real ones. Moms always want whats best for their baby, as I do for my kids. There are so many products on the market these days, you just have to decide what…
Transitions are always difficult for divorced families. I know because we are in one. And the start of a new school year is no exception. There are many details to handle, and for parents, the stress and confusion is even greater. We always try to make things as smooth as possible for our son. Before…
We saw Despicable Me 3 this summer and it was a memorable way to spend a rainy afternoon. This post isn’t a movie review, but I’ll add that we enjoyed it. I read recently that it was one of the quietest box office hits that brought in over $900 million. Apparently others enjoyed it too….
My kids love to build. Most days this summer, some type of building block is out before we’ve even started breakfast. But I’ve noticed that my older kids need a little more than the magnetic blocks or legos that my 4-year-old uses. They like to be extremely creative and enjoy pieces with different shapes and…
Sometimes the only few minutes a momma can find to herself is a quick shower in the morning! I love the new fragrances of body wash from SoftSoap (provided by Colgate-Palmolive) to help start the morning off right! SoftSoap has come out with several new body wash scents recently, some that are limited seasonally. The…
Wilshire + Cooper have the most amazing FALL kids fashions from so many cute brands. It’s a great place to find the trendy clothes for your kids and back to school. We start back to school on Monday and I am really not looking forward to it. I just wanted to share a sneak of…
Does anyone else have a gift shelf/cupboard/box/etc. on hand at home? I grew up with my mom and grandma each having a random drawer of items for giving as gifts when they forgot a birthday or had an unexpected event come up. While I don’t have quite the same supply as either of them I…
Who doesn’t adore kids? The most beautiful moments of your life are none but those spent with Children! The debate is and will forever continue on who’s more adorable? Girl child or Boys? Whosoever your choice might be, but everyone must agree that the ‘Little Angels’ look so very satisfying when they’re dressed up in…
The days of summer are dwindling and it won’t be long before we send our stinky kids off to school. I am quite thankful for the teachers that invest their lives and time into my mini me’s. It takes a special person to close themselves into a room with 20 children each day. I know…
Thankfully, we are a family that loves to read. But, just like their mom, my kids are picky about their book choices. One leans toward realistic fiction, one likes fantasy and one is totally into super heroes. Nonfiction is not always high on their list. But I’ve found a series of nonfiction books from Downtown Bookworks…
Anyone have any Thomas the Train fans at home? We have two little ones who can’t get enough of Thomas, Percy, and James! They love to sing about Thomas, play with Thomas trains, watch Thomas shows, and more! We had the opportunity to attend Day Out With Thomas recently and my kids had the best…
The sun is setting earlier every evening, but it is still summertime. Sure we’ve been posting a lot about back to school, but we have 15 more days before school starts for my kiddos. That means we need to make the most of our trips to the pool, lake, water park, splash pad, etc. We…
