Hello again! Sorry I've been MIA for quite some time now. As the kids get older, I get busier it seems. Especially right here at the holidays! As you can tell by the title, I am going to be blogging today about my personal toddler must haves. The boys turned 2 in September (pictures to come) and these items have been life savers...
Dear Struggling Mama, Yeah, you. I know you feel like you’re failing sometimes, that you’ve really messed up this mothering thing and want a do-over. I’m here to tell you, you’re not.

This has been a long time coming and I am so ecstatic that it's finally happening! My husband and I have been saving and budgeting for a couple of years now.

The lovely ladies over at The Vintage Honey Shop gave me the wonderful opportunity to write a few blog posts for their website. It was a wonderful experience and I am so thankful to have found their adorable business. Two best friends started this business on Etsy a few years ago selling hand-made teething and nursing necklaces. They have grown and expanded and now have...

Hurt people, hurt people... I think most of us have heard that saying before. And it's true. Everyone on this planet has been hurt at some point in their life. It's part of being human. Some more than others. Sadly, those that are perpetually hurt, tend to grow up with anger in their hearts thus hurting those around them. Anger stems from pain. ...
Oh babies. How I love them so. Growing up, I wanted to have three children: two boys and one girl, just like my mother. And I got them! But I'm only 27...and I would like a big family of my own. So do I really only want three? But when do you make the decision to stop having children? Don't you think that's...
