Why I am glad I read this book?
It gave me the justification and reasons to just chill out as a mother, for which I have to give myself a bit of props. I think I have come a long way but this book opened my eyes a bit more.
The author urges you to trust YOURSELF [...]
Meet my Grandpa & Grandma on my mother’s side, Paul & Carolyn. Growing up we lived 3000 miles away from them but not once did I ever feel that they were that far away.
My Grandfather died over a decade ago, he battled cancer numerous times throughout his life and it finally took him. My Grandmother is still with us but [...]
Babar was one of my favorite book series and cartoon growing up. I have tried to get my girls into Babar but they really seem to love Ella the Elephant so much more.
I love Ella too! Her character is kind, obedient, a good friend, elegant, helpful, just an all around sweet-heart. The Ella the Elephant [...]
“Molly Puh-lease?”
“Play Max Mom?”
I can’t recall the last time my daughter has not asked me for this at least once a day.

Outlet Mall Bookstores
I had two great finds when I went to Park City’s Outlet Mall to Barnes and Noble. Baby Einstein’s ABC Art Cards and ABC Alpha Books.
I got them at a killer price, but I would have payed full price for them happily, we use them every single day in my house. The Alpha [...]
Reading with your Toddler or/and Infant
Reading has to be the number one thing I love doing with my children, we spend a good hour every day spending time together reading all different sorts of stories.
The first thing we must do at my house is get comfortable. We get out our long purple reading pillow, lay [...]
Teaching Colors
This was the first thing I felt like I really sat down and taught my daughter and it was very exciting when she learned them all. I felt very proud I used pipe cleaners, I would spread them out like a deck of cards and she got to tell me what color it [...]
I have been checking out a few different ABC books from my local library. I think we ended up checking out over a few weeks about 20, and I found the one! A Child’s First Alphabet Book by Alison Jay was the best by far. (I did also enjoy Kipper’s ABC book, very witty)
The top [...]
