My post this week was going to be about traveling with kids since the Holidays are coming up, but then I stumpled upon TWO articles people had posted on facebook about harmful chemicals in kids products. I think the harmful chemicals is a little more important… I don’t follow the news much since it’s mostly sad and depressing and I don’t watch daytime TV since my monster child has yo gabba gabba on as background noise all day. Usually when {Read More}
Mommy Monday: SIDS Awareness
November 13, 2011 by 2 Comments
I think every parent with a baby worries about SIDS – Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

There is no cure for it and medical professionals don’t know what causes it. When I had both my kids this was something that freaked me out. The worst {Read More}

While the show doesn’t always show how hard it is to be {Read More}

Do you get a chance to get time alone? In my house it’s rare! I can’t even go to the bathroom without being followed and watched. If I close the door then my daughter knocks, sticks her hands under the crack, and calls for me. If I leave the room she is right behind me. I just can’t seem to get away from her. I am thrilled when nap time and bed time come around because that means a few {Read More}

I have been faced with biting kids on a couple occasions lately. Thankfully my daughter hasn’t been the one biting, but she has been the victim.The first time we were in the waiting room of her Dr’s office.

Something was said to the boys {Read More}
