real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
Fall is in the air here in Michigan, which means the local farmers market is flooded with juicy apples. I don’t know about you, but they call to me. Just BEGGING me to take them home! Recently, I helped host a baby shower for one of my dear friends. The theme? The Apple of My…
At our house we celebrate Halloween but it’s not a huge holiday for us like for some other families. The kids like to dress up but we rarely buy new costumes for the occasion. We have plenty of costumes in the dress up box and if you don’t like those then I’ll be glad to…
Having a new baby in the house is a time to celebrate the love that you have for someone you hardly know. Isn’t it simply a miracle HOW much you can love someone SO fast!??! I’m blown away every time we have a child. We are having our 4th in January and I can’t wait!…
For those that dress up for Halloween, it’s a wonderful time of year for children and adults alike to either get in to catalogs or go back and forth at stores and find the PERFECT outfit that will accentuate their personality for that given year. Every year at this time, my girls get in. to….
A few years ago, my in-laws bought a golf course in Hastings, Michigan. It quickly became my kiddos’ favorite place to visit on the weekends. They go on golf cart rides, they look for deer, they “pick the range”…..it’s kid heaven. And whenever we hop in the car to head out to dinner, my daughter…
From the very first time that my girls saw Sofia the First, they fell in love! As a matter of fact, my Zoe decided she would now like to be called “Zoe the First”, since she’s our first Zoe and all. I guess as far as princesses go, Sofia is a pretty good role model….

Let’s talk about oral hygiene for a moment, shall we? On that note, I hate the word combination, “oral hygiene”,…
Do you remember last year when I shared Peppa Pig for the first time? A year later and the giggles keep coming when it is playtime with Peppa Pig whose giggles are contagious. {And what parent could resist listening to their little ones giggle and laugh along?} I am super excited to share some fun…
Have you ever had one of these yummy healthy snack bars? I had not, until I got to review their nut and spices bars. They are KIND bars. KIND Nuts & Spices is a line of delicious whole nut and spice bars that are naturally low in sugar, high in fiber and a good source of protein….
Music is in my soul… There is hardly a time that you will find me NOT whistling a happy tune or singing at the top of my lungs while dancing around my kitchen. Am I the only one that does this?? Maybe you should try it some time! I think it is quite therapeutic 🙂…
Baby monitors. This used to be a pretty general subject. Turn it on…. and hear your baby. Wow, how things have changed in just a few short years. Now there is the technology to not only hear your little one, but see them…live…wirelessly… on your mobile devices. Pretty darn amazing if you ask me. Our…
We are always looking for a good reason to celebrate. This time, we took two reasons and rolled them in to one! We have been back in school for a couple weeks now, both the girls are in good routines and Lili has been getting almost all 100% grades on her tests. So….family night was…
