    Mornings are Tough but It gets Easier

    This post is sponsored by Playtex Baby. All opinions are my own and you can read more information on my disclaimer page. I am not even going to pretend that I am a morning person. I have never been one so; I understand the pain that the kids feel when I wake them up for school. Monday’s are normally the most rough mornings in our house because, over the course of the weekend, our schedules get off track. I am the one that gets Nolan to and from school every day and I’ve found that with a little prep the night before, I can make mornings a little easier. Nolan…

I feel like, the DockATot is one of the greatest inventions in baby products! Harper has used one for almost two years and when she decides to sleep in her bedroom some times, we always snuggle her in her Grand. Before Scarlet Reese was born, we set out her DockATot and talked with Nolan and Harper about the new addition that would be joining our family.

    Taking Your Health Into Your Own Hands

    I often get asked HOW to start transitioning to a healthier lifestyle and my answer is simple. CHOOSE to start and focus on one area to change first. If you decide you want to live healthier and non toxic and think about changing everything at once, it’s going to overwhelm you and chances are, you wont start. You’ll just keep putting it off and putting it off verses just starting somewhere. I chose to clean up my food first. This meant not eating at drive through restaurants, drinking only water and lots of it and keeping away from processed foods. When grocery shopping, I would stick to organic meats and…

    Refocusing my Mission

    Reflecting on my blogging journey that started two years ago, I realized that I’ve somewhat stepped away from the reason I started. I want to refocus on my mission and share more information with y’all like I did in the beginning. I started a blog because I wanted to have an acessable platform for my friends and family to look at that answered all of the questions that I am asked on a daily basis. I transitioned to a non toxic lifestyle and the change was so drastic that I was flooded with comments and questions by my peers. “What made me change?” “How did you start?” “How did you…
