Last Minute Mother’s Day Gift Ideas ($50 or less)

Let’s face it, time slips away and before we know it, Easter has passed and BAM it’s Mother’s Day! Your baby daddy starts to fret, but not to worry, show him this and he will be golden.

My son made me a mama back in 2017 and I am forever grateful and my sweet daughter made me a girl mom in 2019. Whether your a mom of one, an adoptive mom, step-mom, bereaved mom or a mom of 12, you go girl! Us moms, working or stay at home, sacrifice so much to keep the smiles flowing and the giggle plentiful. It’s truly hard work, so Mother’s Day, the one day of the year should truly be about us, after all we deserve it.

Creative Activities for Homeschooling Young Kids

I always knew if I was going to have children, I wanted to homeschool. Parker is at such a fun age where he is truly learning so much the moment he opens his eyes in the morning and shuts them at night. London is also a eager little learner herself.

DIY Jughead Jones Toddler Costume

Alrighty mama’s, I have a guilty pleasure and its Riverdale. Im a huge fan of the show and you can catch me Wednesday nights watching shamelessly. Riverdale is on The CW Network and for those of you who don’t know what it’s about, it’s an adaptation of the classic Archie comics. Jughead Jones (Cole Sprouse) is the story’s narrator and one of the main characters so I thought, why not make my little dude Jughead for Halloween!

Our food journey-starting solids

Mama don’t fear-meal time tricks are here!

Starting solids was…lets just say different. My babes HATED IT and I am sure I am not alone on this. He would gag and turn his head in refusal. It was quite hilarious but also very frustrating. Our doctor recommended to us that we should start with a green veggie, so we did, we choose to start with broccoli. He loved it until he didn’t. One day he was so into it, then the next, he would cry like no ones business. It left us extremely confused. Continue reading Our food journey-starting solids

Mama’s (+ Dada’s) this ones for you.

Creating a baby registry was probably one of the most difficult things for me.
