I am excited to announce this week we have teamed up with Freshly Picked and are giving away a pair of soft sole moccasins & our Grey Chevron Burp Cloth Trio with matching Lovey! I am personally in love with these "Let it Go" moccasins. They're so well made, comfy, easy for toddlers to put on, and of course all around adorable!! They have so many colors to choose from its impossible to pick just 1 color.         

I have say I feel so blessed by all our fans to be able to do what I love. At the same time I get to be home and raise our three girls while working from home! This year my youngest Kiley is beginning first grade(how did that happen?) and it's been a real learning experience juggling working/teaching three. One hard and constant lesson that I have ignored was that I can't do everything.....

I have been looking and researching into oils and/or healthy supplements that we could add to our family lifestyle to help improve immune systems and help us be at our peak performance. With all the side effects you read on the medicines out there, there has to be a healthier way!

Mommy Picks: Chocolate Bar Indulgence

Bars are just the best, aren’t they? The edible kind, I mean—cookie bars. (Yeah, I know what you were thinking of, but it’s not the weekend yet, mamas.)

Bars have all the deliciousness of a cookie without two hours of scooping, shaping, and hauling pans in and out of the oven. With bars, you stick it in once, pull it out, slice, and done!

And since chocolate happens to be one of my favorite things, I thought it would be fun to share with you the chocolate bar recipes that make my mouth water just thinking about them. Chocolate likes to get around, though. It can take many dance partners, and I’ll admit: I love all combinations equa-…well, mostly equally.

There is nothing better than summer!! Seeing your kids running through the sprinklers, playing soccer, softball, rolling down hills and just playing till they have nothing more to give! When the sun sets you see your babies enter the door with filthy little hands and feet climbing up to the table for dinner. Oh how they had such a fun day filled of adventures and imagination. 

The heat is rolling in for summer. Your kids are home all day, and when they run around outside all day, they come back hungry. Sure, some part of us longs to toss over a packaged snack and let them fill up on those. Packaged snacks are quick, easy, and don’t ask you to turn on the oven when July humidity sets in.

 

Thankfully, there are many creative mommies out there who have dedicated time to finding those healthy, yummy, and most of all easy snacks. Here are some of my current faves:

Ready to celebrate the Fourth of July? Our Independence Day is a chance for us to celebrate freedom, patriotism, and all good qualities the U.S. of A. has to offer.

weekly Fast Five: “Sew” Easy Baby Projects for Busy Moms The Internet is full of easy-to-sew baby projects. But who really needs another crib decoration or baby name pillow? We could spend years working on fussy, gorgeous projects that are totally and completely useless. Sorry, but that’s too much of my life to waste on something I’ll never use. Sure, we busy, practical moms want DIY to be fast and simple, but we also want our effort to result in something functional. We want something that helps make our jobs easier, but that’s also good for our little ones. We want…well, something like these nifty ideas from some other smart mamas:

Leave it to the 2 year old to torture her sisters...oh how they learn quick. They're trapped at the top of the playground. 

Today to beat the heat daddy was creative and threw the slide in the pool.  To say the girls are LOVING this would be an understatement!

When we first bought this home in 2009 it was trashed to put it nicely. Though when your looking at a foreclosed home around here it seemed to be normal which is sad.  Long story short, we had to gut and redo which took almost a year, did I mention I was 7 months pregnant at the time?  Now we are finally getting to the outside
