    Sweet Sugar Thanks to Playtex

                Oh man, I cannot believe that my sweet Mercy girl is 14 weeks old now! She is growing by leaps and bounds and everyday she does something new. I am exclusively breastfeeding her but I try really hard to not let her fall asleep while nursing. I don’t want her to become dependent on falling asleep ONLY with me verses if Derrek is home and trying to get her to sleep. For some reason, Nolan and Harper never took a pacifier and I think it’s because I let them fall asleep nursing every single time. Scarlet Reese was the only child other than Mercy…

    How I Work From Home

    My sunnies are from Diff Eyewear and I’ve linked them here – use code: Amandas25 for $25 off your first pair! Wow, this week is truly flying by! I know that for any mom out there, you are feeling the same way. Now that the kids are in school, I am loving the “freedom” I feel during the day. I don’t even count Mercy into this equation because she is the easiest little baby to be with. I work from home as a Beautycounter consultant and I make my own hours. I always make sure to get my work done in the morning but if for some reason it doesn’t…

One of the things that I can count on from my children is hearing, “I am thirsty.” The most frequent times I hear this is when we are in the car, out for a walk or before bedtime. Y’all, it never fails for any one of them to ask for water during those times. As the years have gone by, I’ve just come to an understanding with myself, not to get frustrated but to have a solution. Enter Healthy Human. This brand makes stainless steel cups that…

    Pretty in Pink and Unicorn Dreams

    pajamas | bed linens When we moved into this house, I knew I wanted to do two things. Have Nolan and Harper sleep in their own rooms and also for Scarlet Reese to become potty trained. Derrek and I told Nolan that we would get him Fortnite if he slept in his room and he rocked that and now sleeps in his own bed. Harper and Scarlet Reese are harder to bribe. hahaha, because that’s exactly what we did. We negotiated with the little people. We have always let them sleep with us but it’s getting crowded as they get bigger. Harper was convinced by Nolan (man, you gotta love…

    Playtex Brings Better Beginnings

    Each new year brings new opportunity and growth into our lives. I am excited to share something with you that I’ve been working on for a while now. As a mother, the world of baby products can be overwhelming to say the least. As a blogger, I have exposure to many products and it takes time to cull out the best from the group. For this reason, I like to stick with brands that I trust for my baby’s essentials, and use what fits with my lifestyle. Raising healthy and happy babies is my number one priority as a mom so a collaboration with Playtex Baby® was a perfect fit.…
