Sample received. All opinions are my own. A couple of weeks ago I shared a list of 7 things to do to help transition your children into a back to school / back to sleep routine. Being a teacher on the first day of school really opened my eyes on how important sleep was for my students. That's why I am so strict with my own children a few weeks before school starts. It's always so hard to go to bed earlier and earlier, but it really does help … [Read more...]

I'm Saving Money on PatPat | It's a Shopping Site on an App This post brought to you by PatPat. All opinions are 100% my own. I have been a bargain shopper so long now that's it is an ingrained habit to find the lowest price on anything that I am thinking of purchasing.

Samples Received. All opinions are my own. After 23 years of Motherhood I have had my fair share of "moments". You know the ones... when you've reached and exceeded your breaking point to the point that you momentarily snap. It's bound to happen. You crave having a second alone even in the bathroom, the baby is crying in the car because she just doesn't want to be in that car seat another millisecond, the way the baby fights sleep like it's the … [Read more...]

Sample received. All opinions are my own. As a mother of school aged children and the wife of a farmer, the Fall is a busy time for me.

Last Minute Dorm Essentials from Dormroom Bound at Kohls Samples received. All opinions are my own. It's been a few weeks since my littles went off to school, and I've spent the last few weeks focusing on my oldest son. His college started a little later than most, so we had some time to make sure we had everything he needed to be comfortable in his new home away from home. That's why we headed to Kohl's for their Dormward Bound … [Read more...]

by
How To Create The Perfect Twisty Braid My Emma has become quite the little fashionista as of lately.

Having a tool that could do it for me would … [Read more...]
