Love Christmas lights but not all the work that goes into hanging them? Check out the BEST Holiday Hack with these outdoor Christmas Laser Lights. I received complimentary product for this post. All opinions are my own. My family has always loved decorating for Christmas. I remember when I was a little girl, my Dad would hang lights outside off our gutter, around the trees, and wreaths in the windows. It was our favorite time of the year and the twinkle of Christmas lights always made me feel so festive and happy. Fast forward to quite a few years later and those outdoor Christmas lights seem much harder to hang now! It might be that they always were and I just never realized just how much work it was to put them up, or it might be the fact that we're all getting older now, but they seem to be more trouble than they are … [Read more...]

Does your toddler have trouble sleeping? Wake too early? Help them learn when it's ok to wake with the My Tot Clock. It's the toddler clock that not only tells them when it's time to wake, but also when it's time to sleep too! When Sophia started having sleeping troubles recently, I turned to Google. I google-d anything I could think of to try to get her to sleep longer. I saw a lot of suggestions, but none seemed to really fit our circumstance. Then I remembered one of my friends telling me about a toddler clock she came across on Amazon. See, Sophia was actually sleeping fine, but when she woke up in the mornings at regular time, around 6:15 - 6:30, it would be dark. I'm ok with having an early bird, I'm one myself, so those times were perfectly fine. But gradually the time began to get earlier and earlier... 5:30, 5:00, and even … [Read more...]

A lot of cloth diapers are called one-size diapers, but the Softbums Diapers truly is. Check out how this Softbums Echo cloth diaper system can fit a newborn as small as 6 pounds to a toddler that is 35 pounds. I received a Softbums Cloth Diaper to review. All thoughts are 100% mine. I've had lots of Softbums in our stash over the last 3.5 years of cloth diapering and I've reviewed them a few times too [see those reviews below], but it HAS been awhile since I've seen a Newborn Diaper, I seriously forgot how teeny tiny they are! That's the very reason that I did a double take at the package when I pulled the diaper out. I thought that Softbums must be making a new newborn diaper and accidentally sent it to me instead of their One Size. Seriously, y'all! It's been that long. Then I saw the OS and remembered just how tiny these … [Read more...]

I came home and just....FELT different....confident, empowered. I felt … [Read more...]

Well, when you wake up in the morning and you hurt all over and your back won't even straighten when you try to walk away from the bed... it's a big sign.

A quick search of Google let me know that memory foam mattresses were very highly recommended so I went straight to the top reviewed companies which is where I found Yogabed.

It's easy to update a kids bathroom design. In fact, you can do it with one small change in less than 30 minutes. Ready to see what it is? We've lived in our home for 2 years now and we're still slowly doing upgrades around the house. Although our colonial home is over 100 years old, it really didn't need a ton of work when we moved in because the previous owners had done quite a few upgrades already. That doesn't mean I haven't wanted to do any, though. We've slowly updated some paint colors, added a closet in during our girls' bedroom makeover, removed some of the outdated wallpaper, and updated two out of three of the bathrooms in the house. Next on my renovation list is the girls' bathroom and today I'm going to share with you how we totally updated our kids bathroom design with just one change... that took less than 30 … [Read more...]

We are just a couple weeks away from Christmas and I've already began the buy all the presents and wrap frenzy. While I have most of our Christmas list covered, I'm still trying to pick up a couple of gifts for both of my girls as little extras in addition to the toys they've put on their Santa List. One thing that I always love to include in their gifts is something sentimental that they can keep for years to come. Sure, they love the toys, but I know these special gifts will mean so much to them, especially when they get older. This isn't the first Christmas that they've had I See Me Books personalized books for kids under the tree. A couple of years ago I reviewed a few different selections and this year the company sent me two of their newest titles to review. I have to say that I loved the books that we received from I See … [Read more...]

If your kids like to sing, get crafting and make these adorable DIY Microphones for your own Kidz Bop kids. I've shared our love for Kidz Bop before so you won't be surprised when I tell you that we've added to our collection a few times since. My girls love to sing, like LOVE to sing. And the first time I heard them singing along with the radio I was tickled because, hey they can keep up with the songs finally instead of singing the words a little slower like they did when they were little, but "Hey, they don't need to know THOSE words!" That's the reason we tried Kidz Bop for the first time and the reason my girls now consider themselves Kidz Bop kids. If you've never heard Kidz Bop versions of top hits, you might be surprised that we now actually sometimes prefer the KB versions! Their singers are just great and you don't … [Read more...]
