I know this opinion is not shared by all, but I really love feeding a baby. I enjoyed making my own baby food for my kids, but even more so I love introducing them to ‘real’ solid foods. My husband, on the other hand, hates it. He’s terrified! He is watching like a hawk at …
We are on a family vacation to London, England, visiting my parents, and with all of the beautiful lush greenery and the plethora of little bugs hanging around, we decided to put together a little snail habitat. Who knew snail habitats were so easy to make? My kids have watched these little guys chomp their …

This summer has been busy with family reunions for both my husband and I. Our trip to his reunion in Wyoming was nothing—just a 4-hour drive time that turned into maybe 5 hours, accounting for the times we stopped for the kids. MY family reunion was another story. The drive from our house in Utah …
It’s hot out there. I’m probably just being lazy, but when my toddler asks to go outside, I groan a little (a lot) inside because I’m such a wimp when it comes to being in the heat. If we do have to go outside, I’d like there to be water involved, so I can get …
I was out to dinner with friends the other night and one of the women made a point to confirm with the server that her beer would be served in a certain type of glass (the correct type for that style of beer). Then she commented to me that, having spent years working in hospitality, …
By far my favorite hobby is reading. It always has been. I just love a good story! Add a hot bath or a cozy blanket and cup of chai and I’m one happy mama. For awhile I thought I would need to give up or slow down my reading time when I became a mom, …
