Let’s start with a little flashback: When I was younger, much younger, and I couldn’t sleep for some reason (bad dream or wasn’t feeling well), I would often grab my blanket and pillow and make my way into my parents’ room.  I would snuggle in next to my mom’s side of the bed, on the [...]

The best part about being pregnant this time around has not been eating pizza in bed at 10pm or picking up a few new outfits for the fall/winter. Oh, the pizza has been nice, but it’s not the best part. The absolute, without a doubt, best part has been sharing this pregnancy with our daughters!!! [...]

The time has come for the girls to share a bedroom.  Yikes!  We were holding off as long as possible but we also wanted to make sure we gave them some time to get used to it all before the baby comes. Why were we (and by we I  mean me) hesitant? It’s just been [...]

Sometimes I’m flabbergasted at what comes out of my 2 year old’s mouth!  She definitely loves to mimic people and repeats everything she hears.  The astounding part is how she is so good at using those words and phrases in the best context!  Here’s a little conversation she had with her daddy the other morning [...]

It’s no secret:  my youngest child is my challenge!  And when it comes to food, oh boy does she like to make that challenge unbearable!  I’m not sure if it’s her age (2 years old) or if it’s just her personality, but every single meal lately has been a battle. It doesn’t matter what meal [...]
