The quarantine has got me in a different jive than I’m used to these days and getting creative is starting to wear thin in my household. Sometimes you just need a good ole educational app on your devices to keep the kiddos entertained.
The winter blues have definitely hit the house and it has been long and grueling. With the flu having come and gone, it is only fitting to wish for warmer weather where we can escape the germ-infested house and get some much needed fresh air. Wishful thinking…until today.
Are you ready for a little mischievous fun? These St. Patrick’s Day STEAM activities are sure to get your littles excited about science. Start the week off with a Skittles experiment. (Because leprechauns love rainbows of course. 😉 ) Just place the candies around the edge of the plate and Read more…
I know for me, whenever I am away from home for a period of time with or without the littles, I can get over the fact that I am on “vacation” and I resort back to the fact that I really want my own bed and own daily routine. Don’t get me wrong, I love to vacation and feel there is a place for it in any family. I am always grateful for the time away from the everyday norm.

After giving birth to your child, it’s difficult to think of anything other than the new wailing, pooping, spitting roommate you’ve just been tasked with keeping alive — even though you’re also going through a huge transition (not to mention, recovering from a huge physical event).

As a health and fitness coach, one of my biggest questions is how I get my toddler and children to eat what I eat at dinnertime. While it can still be a struggle at times, I have found many healthy recipes they devour with a smile. I have decided to share those recipes with you in hopes that you, too, have the same success. I have written them in order from the most popular to the least.
Our youngest daughter just turned 17 months old. She is a beautiful little girl with a heart of gold. She loves everyone and knows what she likes and doesn’t like in life at this time. Like, for instance, she knows that she would like to be held by Momma 24/7. Now we know that it isn’t possible for me to do that but to her…THAT is the ONLY way she would like to spend her day. Yes, I will admit it, my daughter has become “clingy.”
Let me paint the picture for you… My 2.5 year old is TERRIFIED to poop in the potty because she doesn’t like the feeling. In return, she gets extremely constipated. My husband and I chase her around the bathroom trying to reason with her that if she doesn’t go, she Read more…
