Baltic Mermaid – TEETHING 101
Happy Humpday ya’ll! I am so stoked that we are half way through the week. I have some big plans for this weekend that include starting our raised bed gardens and the weekend can’t come soon enough. (I’ll be sure to keep ya’ll updated on our gardens as we go!) This week, all the kids have been in school – thank GOODNESS the flu has finally left our house – and so that means it’s just been me and my Mercy girl. She has seriously been the best baby and I am so thankful that she has been because have you met my 3rd child, haha! Lately, she’s gotten a…

Pineapple Juice Cough Cure
Cold and flu season has jumped back into everyone’s lives and man, it’s a force to be messed with. The kids and I have passed around all the germs over the last month and thank God it’s finally out of our bodies and our house. I really don’t think I could have taken much more. The last lingering of our colds were this deep cough that none of us could shake. We tried all the things, cough syrup, chiropractic adjustments, essential oils, honey, etc and NOTHING made it go away. After about two weeks of non stop coughing, I dug deep into research for what we could do. I found…

I didn’t care about any feature for a mattress other than was it soft enough for me. I cannot stand a hard mattress. Derrek on the other hand loves a hard mattress. The…

Nontoxic Period Products That Perform!
Alright ladies, lets talk about that Aunt that we all get visits from but we really don’t love… let’s talk about Aunt Flo. YES, for those of you that like actual names, I am talking about our menstrual periods. That “fun” time once a month that we show how amazing a females body is. I mean, what man could bleed for days and not freak out? Not many! I’ve shared natural forms of birth control (why I choose not to use the pill) and ways to deal with those dreadful cramps that occur but I haven’t talked in-depth about an important topic: non toxic pads, liners, tampons – and what…

Spring Essential Oil Diffuser Blends
Happy Tuesday friends! I don’t know about you but this weather gives me all the good feels. Even though it has been raining more during the weekends than I would like, we are dealing with it and enjoying all the warm weather and sunshine in between the rainstorms. I also found some amazing essential oil diffuser blends to use in our house and make it feel extra “Springy.” We do not use candles in our household, only essential oils. We made this switch during my pregnancy with Nolan and have never regretted it since. Click here to read more about how scented candles are as toxic as diesel fumes and…
