real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
I have had the privilege to travel around the world. I’ve been to St Lucia, Jamaica, Alaska, and even Europe, but perhaps one of my favorite vacationing spots involves packing up comfy clothes, throwing some firewood in the back of the truck and heading north. Ahhhh… Camping! That one vacation where no one cares if…
Upon seeing this, I’m sure all the parents will go to the cupboards to check if the Infant Motrin you just spent money on is now recalled. At least, that’s what I do as soon as I hear something like this. The most recent recall was issued because plastic particles were found in a few…
When I moved away to go to college, my parents came and helped me get everything set up and then we went out to eat. After dinner, they were going on a short vacation before they headed back home. I was headed to my first apartment with a girl I hardly even knew. They got…
There is something both comforting and encouraging about watching something with my kiddos that I watched myself when I was a child. I have viewed many shows with my little ones that have a positive message, shows that help teach things that I have been striving to teach, shows that make my kids laugh and…
Unique. Stylish. Different. Functional. That is what I look for when I am searching for something fashion forward. Shoes, Clothes, Jewelry…it doesn’t really matter. Different is great, and I found something different! After I was contacted by LUME, and upon seeing their items, I was excited about the opportunity to share the items with you…
Do you ever do things because everybody else is doing it? Running is one of those things for me. At least it’s positive peer pressure. It was 2 years ago in October that I discovered the Couch to 5K (c25K FREE) app. I hated running. HATED IT!! My fat would itch when I ran. Please…
As you know, I love clothes and fashion. However, I love the two combined with a great price point yet great quality. Oh do I have a wonderful line that I’ll be sharing with you over the month of September. I will have quite a few pieces…so be sure to scroll to the bottom of…
It seems like little girls need all the help they can get these days. From comparing themselves to the image of perfection they see on TV to dealing with peer pressure at school, our daughters are fighting a battle and most of them don’t even realize it. The Real Tooth Fairies help young girls to…
We’ve done it! We’ve managed to make it through those first few days {or weeks} of the school year. We’ve shopped for school supplies and replenished their wardrobes with clothes that fit. Give yourself a little pat on the back, but know that we’re not in the clear. Our next hurdle….school pictures! I’ve had my…
September has officially arrived and for my family that means back-to-school, volunteering, field trips, color tours, apple season (which is kind of a big deal when you live on an apple farm), and the beginning of our family birthdays/holiday stretch. Basically, I don’t have time for meal planning but without meal planning my family would…
Ever had your kids want to keep a “pet” they found in the yard. This summer my girls have attempted to adopt toads, bugs, even cicada shells as their new pets. Thanks to the creative mind of author and illustrator Peter Brown, my girls and I have enjoyed seeing what their random animal adoptions could…
The new school year is here, so it’s a great time to re-evaluate and revamp what we’re going to feed our kids for lunch. Finding options that are convenient, healthier and delicious can be a difficult task. Luckily, Pirate’s Booty makes the grade! Baked, all-natural Pirate’s Booty has all the fun, but half the fat…
