As the mom of four little ones under six and under I’m bad about not taking the time to do things for myself, or I don’t always put myself first. I’ve decided that lately, I needed to take time to change that because as a parent I’m important too.

April 23, 2018 By Leave a Comment
Spring is here and that means it’s time to clean out the old and in with the new. For me, that means getting some new must-have items to last the new year and make me feel refreshed. I’m always looking for new things that will help me do this, and I’ve found some great items that I’d love to share, so let us get started.
Puppy Dog Pals Are Back In Action
April 10, 2018 By 18 Comments
Who doesn’t love an adorable little puppy dog? Well just like any other kids their age my children sure love any puppy dog they see. Any time we are out at the park we always make a game to see who can spot the most dogs and what kind they are. We even have three dogs of our own. So what a better movie than the new Puppy Dog Pals: Vol. 1 (DVD).
Puppy Dog Pals are on a MISSION!
Getting Clean Has Never Smelled So Good
March 19, 2018 By 13 Comments
I’m getting so tired and fed up with this cold weather and all I want is to be whisked away to somewhere nice and hot. I’m dreaming of leaving these wet and snowy days in the past. I’m the kind of gal that loves it hot and enjoys everything summer. So I’ve finally found a way to get that little bit of summer in the middle of winter.
One of my favorite things to do is draw a nice, hot, steamy bath and soak until all my cares have vanished and with the help of SoftSoap Earths Blend, I can do just that! Getting clean has never smelled so good. The new Earth Blends smell AMAZING! There are three different scents to the Earths Blend line: Pink Grapefruit & Cucumber, Pomegranate & Plum, Coconut & Fig. My favorite is the Pink Grapefruit & Cucumber. It’s the perfect mix of scents and leaves you feeling super clean…. [read more]
Products to Help Your Breastfeeding Journey
March 13, 2018 By 16 Comments
I’m the mother of four children, ages ranging from six years old to three months. I always thought that breastfeeding would be easy. I never imagined things wouldn’t go according to plan. With my first two children I really didn’t have the knowledge that I needed to move forward, so when things got hard I just gave up and used formula.
(First and foremost I’d like to say that I have no problem with formula, I honestly and fully believe that FED is best. So just wanted to say there is no mommy shaming in this post! )… [read more]
Celebrating National Snack Day With a Bang
March 4, 2018 By Leave a Comment
Did you know that March 4th is National Snack day? I didn’t either but I’ve found some awesome snacks that I think you and your family will love. So let’s get down to the tasty goodness!
Now I have four kids ( ages six, four, two and three months), three of which are old enough to love snacks. I’m pretty sure that
“Can I have a Snack mom”???
is the number one thing I hear in my house every single day. So I’ll start with some of our favorites in this household.
Go Organically Fruit Snacks: These are one of my kid’s favorite snacks by far! These tasty treats are USDA-certified and made with real fruit. At 70 calories each, I don’t mind giving them to my kids when they are in need of a snack.
Keeping with the fruity theme another go-to snack here is Welch’s Fruit Rolls. Did you know that fruit is the first ingredient? My kids love them and can’t get enough. I don’t feel bad sending these to school with my oldest daughter to school because I know that there is nothing in it to set off an allergy attack because she has so many allergies.
Another favorite here is the Munk Pack Oatmeal Fruit Sqeezes. These are so great, helps keep your little ones full while at home or on the go, these are perfect to just put in your diaper bag or a school lunch. They are great for breakfast for your little ones too. This perfect snack is whole grain, vegan, and gluten-free. A great choice for any time of the day for sure.
So now that we have covered kids you ask “Well what’s a good choice for me”? I’ve found some I think you’re defiantly going to like.
Sparkling Ice is your option if you want to cut out the soda. For me, its all about the fizz and this carbonated drink is a great switch. It has zero calories and zero carbs. Its got Vitamin D and B-Vitamins along with antioxidants. There are over twenty flavors, from lemonades to teas. My favorite is the Black-Raspberry!
If you’re always on the go like I am, sometimes I honestly forget to stop and eat, which isn’t great but its life as a mom sometimes. Well, Gaea Veggie Snacks are great on the go option for that busy lifestyle. They offer Pickles ( My Favorite! ) carrot and cauliflower. They are all natural and resealable and are great on the go snack.
Carrington Farms line of Paks is great for adding in some extra nutrition in almost any product! Mix in water, smoothies, or sprinkle over some ice cream, great for keeping you fit and full.
What tasty snack will you choose?
Tasty Teas and Treats For You
February 2, 2018 By 22 Comments
I’ve always lived in the South and one thing that is always a staple in our house is tea. It’s one thing you can always count on being at the table. Your brought up almost drinking it from a bottle ( well maybe not that extream but you get the picture). So I’ve always loved trying as many types and flavors that I can get my hands on.
Growing up tea is served with every meal.
The Perfect Gift for Any Occasion
February 1, 2018 By 29 Comments
Are you looking for the perfect gift for any occasion?
My husband and I recently celebrated our ten-year anniversary and eight that we have been married. Thinking back, it’s been a crazy couple of years but I wouldn’t change it for the world. We met through a mutual friend and instantly hit it off. The night we were introduced, my friend warned me as they picked up to go have a midnight game night at Denny’s that her friend dressed a little different. Little did I expect him to be dressed head to toe in black ( a lot of it leather ), a trench coat, and a chain wrapped up his leg. I was a little iffy to be sure but from the moment we met, we became best friends.
Find Your Fashion

I’m always looking to add new clothes to our wardrobe, and I’ve found a perfect small business that I wanted to share. I first found this little shop last year, and have been in love with their products since. I always would rather buy from small businesses because you’re actually helping out an actual person and their family. In this amazing shop called Wild Pigeon Clothing, there is something for everyone. So let me show you some of the clothing that I picked out for my children and myself.
Who doesn’t love fashion? Are you ready to find your fashion with the help of a small business?
Your Pony Pals Are Back

Who loves My Little Pony?
Your pony pals are back with My Little Pony The Movie! Are you ready?
My kids love their pony pals, especially my oldest daughter. Her first 2 birthday parties were pony themed and to be honest when she was really little up to 5 months we would loop the theme song and it could calm her right down. Now six years later she was so excited to hear that the creators are coming out with a new movie. My middle daughter actually went as Pinky Pie this year for Halloween, so we love some ponies in our house. As soon as we got the package she insisted on putting it in right away and she and her siblings sat right down to watch and didn’t move through the entire movie.
