Since I blew the surprise and hit the wrong button Sunday, I figured I’d go ahead and post this a day early! Look at me, getting crazy this summer. 🙂 Anyway… I am so excited to have Connie Deal, of Lessons and Learning for Littles, on the blog this week! As soon as I […]
Getting to Know You!
So, I feel like we’ve been seeing each other a while now, and it’s time to take the next step in our relationship. We know what each other does for a living and that we are moms, but what about the other parts of our lives? This is my Getting To Know You Post! (I […]
Oat Flour Pancakes
Happy Hump Day, Friends! My daughter pooped in the tub this weekend. Then, as I sat her on her potty seat, she dumped the entire cup of water she was holding from playing in the bath all over the bathroom floor. So that was fun. Even more fun was while I was cleaning the bathroom, […]
The ONE Resolution You Need for the New Year
Three, Two, ONE…..Happy New Year! 2016 seems to be going out in a blaze of glory, but nonetheless, in just a few days we will usher in the new year! I cannot believe how quickly time flies the older I get. Didn’t it seem like Christmas took forever to get here when we […]

So This Is Parenting, Huh?
Today at Target… My 15 month old handed me a bottle of anti-wrinkle cream, then walked off with a bottle of Delsym cough syrup as I was trying to explain that she, in fact, is the reason that I may not look as young and spry as I once was. She then proceeded to greet everyone at Target […]
Family Responsibility Station: Create a Successful Behavior Plan!
