Want to know the truth about parenting? I have been a mom for almost 11.5 years now and it has been quite the journey. It has been nothing like I thought it would be. Back in junior high, high school and college, I babysat a lot. I watched a lot of kids over those years….

How You Know You Are In An All Boy Family
My house is an all boy house. We have no little girls here. Mommy is the only one sporting the pink. My 10 year old loves green, my 8 and 4 year old love blue. Walk into our house and you will probably be able to tell pretty quickly that we are an all boy home. This…
Summer 2015 Plans
Summer? Already? We have just 45 days left until summer vacation begins. Every year I think about my kid’s ages and I am VERY excited about this summer of 10, 8 and 4. Very. For one thing, NO ONE IS IN DIAPERS!!! Which means, NO ONE IS IN SWIM DIAPERS. I can’t tell you how…
