My big girls got baby dolls this Christmas, and they just *adore* them! I had also found some (cheap) plastic diapers that I added to their baby diaper bags, and within 3 days of Christmas they were already torn – big thumbs down!

I distinctly remember growing up and playing The Game of Life with my sister. We lived in the country and when we weren’t outside playing, we were inside playing games. Whether it was board games or make-believe games. We were constantly keeping busy with “non” technology. And I’d like to think we turned out ok!…
When my girls were born, they both had thick, dark hair that would hold hairbows.

In just one short week the 2014 Winter Olympics will officially kick-off. A day that hundreds of athletes have been training for for longer than they can remember. I cannot even fathom the amount of pride and excitement running through their bodies as they march into Olympic Stadium with their teammates! Can you tell I’m…
One thing that so easily falls to the wayside as a busy mom is looking your best. There are days when I am so wrapped up in what my kids are eating, wearing, playing with, etc. that I forget that I need to take care of me. The best gift I can give my kids…
We are preparing for when we buy a home! I want to have everything all set. My son needed new bedding, so of course I turned to Beyond Bedding for this! They have the ultimate selection and great patterns. We chose the boys designer modern designer dots. It has the perfect colors and very fashionable…
What is it about my babies turning 4 and 5 months old that turns on their drool faucets and makes them want to bite *everything*?! The Nawgum teether from Mello & Company couldn’t have come at a better time! Caitlyn has become very fond of her thumb…and chewing on just about her whole fist!…
