Thanks to Poise for sponsoring today's discussion. As a parent, you daily face hilarious situations. Some are so awful that they just have to be laughed at. I need to start keeping track of all the funny things my Little Man is doing. I started this blog to keep track of what my Princess was doing and saying and I love looking back at posts from four years ago and laughing about it all over again. {That's the great thing about blogging isn't it?} In my experience, these situations have … [Read more...]
Chocolate Energy Snack Bar
Disclosure: This shop has been compensated by #CollectiveBias and its advertiser #BarNutrition. I am waiting for a calm, mellow day to occur where I can just sit on my couch and watch TV, swim at the adult pool in our community and read a book. That's it. It is honestly my idea of a perfect summer day. But as a mother to two young children, I live a fast paced on the go life. Today, I was super hungry at 4 pm and I realized that I didn't eat lunch.

Beauty IS NOT some standard set by magazines, entertainment, or media - beauty is in all of us. Our … [Read more...]
Ultimate Summer Wedding Gifts
Content and/or other value provided by our partner, Target. All opinions are my own. I love weddings? Do you? Anytime I get a wedding invitation, I want to go.

I actually really love when couples register at Target. There is such a large variety of products that you can register for at Target. Plus, I … [Read more...]
He’s Walking, Running, Jumping – Oh My!
I participated in an Influencer Program on behalf of Mom Central for Huggies. I received a product sample to facilitate my review and a promotional item to thank me for participating. My Little Man was a late walker. My husband was starting to get worried. I figured he was fine though and I was in no hurry at all to have him walking. Because I knew. My life would drastically change once my baby was on the move. Since he was 17 months old I have been chasing him like crazy. Now he isn't … [Read more...]
Revolution Foods: Afternoon Snack We Love
I participated in an Influencer Program on behalf of Mom Central for Revolution Foods. I received a product sample to facilitate my review and a promotional item to thank me for participating.

If we aren't at our local community pool, then the kids are … [Read more...]
