Mammas, I know it can get tough to find time to juggle everything we’ve got going on, but as the old saying goes: stop and smell the roses, or in this case stop and visit these places. Nothing lasts forever other than our memories, so amidst the craze, remember to always make some. To help, I’ve put together a list of 10 fun places for kids you can visit in
My diaper bag is always overflowing with clothes, toys, bottles and lots of that cute white/turquoise/red printed packaging – aka Honest products. The brand has expanded beyond baby products, all the while keeping their promise to customers to deliver environmentally-friendly, chemical-free products. On each product, you can find exactly what’s in it and what’s not. Best of all, the Honest company has continued to maintain some of the best customer service I’ve
If you’re thinking that the picture above looks too serene, then you’re probably right. This was a once in a lifetime shot, and unless you have a full time nanny, moments like these are hard to come by as a new Mom. But the truth is, if you want to be a good new Mom you’ve got to get some good old rest, because if you don’t take care of yourself,
Shopping for baby cribs is one of the most time consuming things you’ll do as parent-to-be/new parent. First you have to figure out the style of crib you want, then color and price range, then search for it and lastly check to make sure the crib and your assembly & use comply with the Consumer Product Safety Commissions guidelines (in case you don’t know where to look, follow this link). Having done this
I’ve gone through this once before and am about to, again – the challenging task of coming up with first birthday gift ideas for my little one. One year olds don’t understand much about gifts, at the time anyway, so my advice is to gift them something they will always remember. I’ve thought long and hard about this, asked other parents, and looked to the internet for some creative ideas. So here are my
To say that I love fashion is an understatement. I mean, I’ve made it my career. Pre-baby, I could scour the web for hours looking for things to add to my “collection”, from designer must-haves to fast fashion trend pieces, I loved it all. Now that I have this little one in my life (he’s two months old and a milk monster!), I have a new requirement for everything that
Meet my newest love, Christian, all swaddled up like a little burrito. When you’re at the hospital after delivering a baby, most nurses will use a baby swaddle and tell you it’s the best way to make your baby feel all comfy and cozy like they did in the womb. This is an ancient practice and helps calm the baby, prevents them from moving their arms and feet so they don’t wake themselves
Whether you share them with others or privately treasure them in your own collection, maternity photos are a timeless keepsake of a beautiful and blessed time in your life. I’ve seen maternity shoots with all kinds of themes and in all kinds of settings, but my favorites have always been the ones where the mommy-to-bes are wearing white long dresses. There is something angelic about a pregnant woman in a long
Pregnancy is a joyous occasion, but the truth of the matter is it’s not always so friendly on your feet. The additional weight you’re carrying, coupled with all the perks of water retention mean that your cutest and most stylish shoes may be the last thing you want to wear. But don’t throw in the towel and declare a love for Crocs or Uggs – you’ll regret it later. Here
With each pregnancy comes a lot of happy and wonderful experiences, but shopping for clothes is not one of them- at least not for me. I am now 31 weeks pregnant (translation to normal human timeline: 7 months) and in this summer heat the last thing I want to do is spend time and money on a new wardrobe that will (fingers crossed) be way too big on me in
