It’s wintertime here in the States, which can only mean one thing- illness. Not what you thought I would say? Well, here in the North East, it seems as though everyone I know is sick. It has taken over my world lately. In fact, we basically had to cancel our Christmas because my husband and …

Deep breath my mama friends … the New Year is upon us! Since the 1st I’ve felt really cliche setting my annual goals, making lists of projects I want to accomplish, and starting a new “diet.” Sometimes it feels like there is a lot of weight put on January – to start off strong and …

If you “Like” us on Facebook and follow our page, you may have seen our post about the Flying Falcon Infant Car Seat Carrier. Which got me thinking: what other weird, ridiculous, crazy baby products are out there on the market? I know there are a lot of gag gifts out there (and I’m really …

Have a few lines you’d like to get rid of? Or really dry skin that needs some moisturizing? Or maybe you’re like me and have incredibly sensitive skin that is allergic to almost every product under the sun, so you need one that your skin can handle everyday! Whatever your needs might be, I’ve rounded up …

When my son was born I was all about breastfeeding him. On my birth plan, it specifically stated NO sugar water, and NO pacifiers. I didn’t want my son to end up with nipple confusion. I was going to make sure that I waited the two weeks for his latch to be fully established. Well, …

During the holidays with my family, at some point I decided that I had made enough cookies for the time being. I know, blasphemy! There can never be too many cookies, right?!? Well, I wanted to switch it up and make a cake but nothing like a birthday cake. I wasn’t looking for a light …

Organization hasn’t always been my strong suit especially when it I don’t have the proper tools. My husband likes to joke I have a bit of hoarding blood in my system because things get a bit cluttered in my life. I have to say, I’m no where near a hoarder but I could always be …

Long before Wild Friends Nut Butters debuted on Shark Tank, I was a fan of their nut butters. Especially this one. Wild Friends began as Wild Squirrel, a simple peanut butter experiment between two college friends in Oregon that has boomed into a wonderful business. They’ve got talent, a delicious product and a business model that …

There is a saying about Michigan’s seasons: “The four seasons are winter, still winter, almost winter, and construction.” And it is very true that the weather here is bipolar and we can experience winter, fall, summer, and spring all in one day. Before you ask, yes, I do in fact break out the flip flops …

As a new mom, I was on the hunt to meet other moms with babies around my son’s age.  I joined a play group over this past summer that has been awesome so far. The babies range from 6-18 months, but my son seems to be on the younger end of the group. We recently did a …

It’s all the rage in the grade schools this winter to make paper snowflakes. Not just the simple cut a flat snowflake out of a sheet of paper type but an elaborate 3D craft that kids like to hang around the house as decoration. While these snowflakes look complicated, my 9 year old daughter showed …

Back in December of last year I got very sick with Bronchitis and the nasty nasty flu. When I originally got sick, I didn’t think much of it other than, “Well this stinks. I have an 8 month old baby to take care of and I’ve got body aches, chills, and can barely breathe.” When …
