When I had one child, I thought two would be too hard to handle.
When I had two children, I thought that three would be hard to handle.
Until I got pregnant with my third.
I found out that I was pregnant again, and I said, “Okay, here we go,” and just accepted it.
I just started preparing.
Having done two children for three years, I had a good idea of what it would take to have a third.
Does your toddler refuse to play alone? Or does your child expect you to always be near them while they play?
My daughter was very clingy until recently when I said enough is enough. I need to be able to get things done while she plays and I need her to play in another room by herself.
It’s time for a family vacation!
Does this statement make your cringe? Does it bring back any memories?
Perhaps you had some amazing family vacations as a child! Let’s just agree that memories made on vacation last forever.
Hi, so you’re one of those, huh? A parent with a teen. A teen with an attitude. Does it get any more frustrating?
Currently in my own household I’ve got two teen boys who love to talk back and argue with EVERY SINGLE WORD that I say.
Now, I try to take these times in stride but it doesn’t always happen.
Doing dishes is already a trying chore, but cleaning bottles and sippy cups is a headache we all wish we could avoid.
(Have you ever torn apart those sippy cups? YIKES!)
If you are like me, you have scoured the internet for search of answers to cleaning those hard to reach areas of your precious one’s cup.
I have an image in my mind when I think of the word picnic.
I imagine a peaceful, serene landscape with delicious sandwiches coming from a vintage basket, on a red and white checkered blanket with beautiful weather.
Maybe there’s a tree above aiding shade.
By the time your kid is a toddler, chances are you’ve had so many fun, crazy, and often exhausting experiences with them that you’ve forgotten just what life was like when you were pregnant.
If you’re on your second child (as I currently am), the last time you were pregnant was hugely different for one key reason: you didn’t have to take care of any kids while you were going through your pregnancy.
It’s summertime!
What a beautiful time of the year.
The days are longer, fruit is beginning to ripen, and well, let’s face it, the temperature is rising.
Are you expecting a little one or maybe just planning to have a baby soon?
Are you worried that money will be tight while you’re at home on maternity leave?
In this post, I will cover seven ways to financially prepare for maternity leave that will leave you a little more stress free.
Mommy-shaming happens to the best of us…
I’m not saying I’m one of the “best,” but I at least try.
I’m sure you try too.
But seriously, it seems like NO ONE is exempt from the criticism of the naysayers. As Taylor Swift says:
Haters gone hate, hate, hate.
And you know what I’m learning to do?
Shake it off! Shhhhake it off.
