real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
My oldest daughter is a bit animal crazy and because of her love for all things furry, scaled, or feathered my youngest has also become quite the animal lover. Fiction or fact it matters not, as long as there are animals involved my girls will attentively listen or read. Today’s National Library Week shares from…
Mutiny. It is what I expect if I take down the “My Pirate Ship” House Tent from Pacific Play Tents. From the moment I began assembling this fun play tent for my girls they LOVED everything about it and really who could blame them? Top on their list of what to love about this play…
At first glance the next two books I’m sharing for National Library Week from Sleeping Bear Press may seem to be just for the little guys, but don’t be fooled. While these books are for younger kiddos, they are fun for both boys and girls alike. Buster: The Little Garbage Truck :: while I know…
A first birthday is a big celebration for a little one. So much happens in that first year that gives cause to celebrate the unique milestones in a baby’s life. I loved planning my little one’s birthday (more to come about that in a later post) and I was looking for a sign to showcase…
Halfway through National Library Week and I’m excited to share the books I have lined up for you today. While most children’s books are really only interesting to children I have to admit that reading any of the books from the series that the next two selections come from is always as interesting for me…

I often feel like all the mom stress of the day settles in my neck and shoulders. I think every mother should have a neck massage pillow from Zyllion. It’s versatile, slim, and ergonomic. It’s safe too, it comes with an automatic shut off and overheat protection. Just keep it near your favorite chair so you can take…
Shopping for children’s eyewear is not for the faint of heart. Both of my older children wear glasses and my son’s prescription changes about every 3 months, so we’ve had our fair share of comparison shopping, failed attempts at ordering glasses online, and disappointment at the selection out there for kids. The last time we…
Here I was thinking we had moved out of the board book phase in our lives and surprise! Baby #3 is on the way. Over the past couple years I had given away many of our board books but there were a few favorite authors and publishers that I had held on to. One of…
Did you know that this week (April 12-18, 2015) is National Library Week? In honor of this week I am going to share a couple new books from our friends at Sleeping Bear Press each day and give you all some great suggestions to ask for on your next library trip or to add to…
It has been more than a decade since my husband has purchased new glasses. Despite being a good three prescriptions behind now, it’s just not something we’ve put high on the priority list. And yet I get to hear {nearly every night} all about how his glasses are so outdated and how he’d be better…
