The hype for essential oils has been going on for awhile now, but truthfully I never got into it all or at least I hadn’t until recently. I heard friends & family rave about them and their benefits but for some reason it never really jumped out at me. Really it wasn’t until Cora started into the toddler stage that I thought about it more. I saw people raving…
In partnership with Tide This world is full of bacteria, it’s just life ya know. You can be as clean & safe as physically possible but it’s just not going to happen. Maybe if you covered yourself in a huge bubble your whole life lol but even then I’m sure the germs & bacteria would find a way to get to you 😆 haha. But seriously, bacteria germs are…
This post is sponsored by Beech-Nut® Naturals™ and free product was received to throw party. All thoughts & opinions are my own. This is a really fun blog post for me because I was able to throw a get-together specifically for moms and their young babes..SO FUN!! The theme of the party was to feature Beech-Nut® Naturals™ baby food line which is inspired by homemade. I know when Cora was…
I’m definitely not a product snob in the shower. What I mean by that is, I do not have a set soap, shampoo, or conditioner that I HAVE to use. I definitely prefer brands over others, and I forsure have some favorites. But when I go to the store, I’m not only buying one specific product each time. I’m always up for trying a new shampoo or conditioner so I…
Every night Cora get’s a bath, minus the random crank-fest evening or late night dinner thing that throws our routine out the door LOL. Moms- you know what I mean! So basically every night I make sure my daughter is stripped of the germs of the day & going to bed nice and clean. At least, that’s what I thought until I started thinking about her sweet stuffed animals…
When Cora first started eating actual food, she LOVED vegetables. She could eat an entire bowl of black olives, broccoli, or tomatoes. As she got older though & realized what other foods/flavors there were she stopped eating all the veggies. It seemed these days, I had to “trick” her to get more vegetables in her diet. So I started racking my brain to see what the best way to do…
There are quite a few differences between what I had in Cora’s diaper bag when she was a newborn-to-1yr , to now what I have in it as a 16month old toddler. And the reality is, it’s always changing. She falls in love with a new toy, type of snack, or starts a new phase where I need different items inside. But I thought it would be fun to…
Before my 15month old daughter turned one, I started looking into photographers for her Smash Cake Photoshoot. I knew I wanted to have one because they are SOO cute! I also figured that pricing would be decent since it’s not like there’s outfit changes, multiple backgrounds, or that it would even take real long. Boy was I wrong!! In my town in KY, the average smash cake photoshoot cost $400.…
What’s in my toddlers Easter basket? First thing first, do not go crazy & spend ridiculous amounts of money on your little ones Easter basket. I say this because I have first hand experience. Last year for Cora’s first Easter when she was only a few months old, I spent WAY too much. And by way too much, I mean like $300 dollars. Yes, I was crazy! The thought of…
As I mentioned in my first-ever blog post, I’m a full-time working mama. I work 8am-6pm 5 days a week, every week. It sucks lol!!! But hey that’s life! I wasn’t born a millionaire who can just stay home all the time & unfortunately we’re not in a situation where daddy works a great job so that I can be a stay-at-home mom. Maybe one day, but not right now.…
