We all have that friend who is totally anti-nursing and the friend who is a die hard breastfeeding advocate.
I happen to be a huge breastfeeding fan...no crazy sit-ins at the White House, but I definitely am pro-nursing. But not...
I'm a Type A. There's no denying it. I love to plan out my color-coded calendar months in advance and our vacations down to the smallest details. I've researched my daughter's extracurricular activities years before she was old enough to join...
I'm pregnant with my fourth child, and while I'm still young, {I will be 34.5 years old at delivery to be exact}, I am on the brink of "advanced maternal age". When I first heard this, I literally said...
Resting on top of the glider in our room is a pile of my clothes that I need to put away, hand-me-downs from our nieces that need to be parceled out between my kids, and my backup Halloween outfit. ...

You know you want a baby, and you know you want to experience pregnancy, complete with feeling those little baby kicks. But for one of many possible reasons, you have decided to...
Hand-me-downs - hands down - have been a godsend to our family. In addition to second-hand children's stores, my children are clothed in pre-worn duds about 90% of the time. Better yet, you would never even know and my bank account...
So it’s World Breastfeeding Week. And if you’re a mom like me, you might have, well, mixed feelings about the extravaganza. After a great experience breastfeeding my firstborn, I had to pump exclusively for #2, and so far, for...
Before I had kids, I traveled a lot. My goal was to pack light, walk fast, and take the trip of a lifetime at least every other year, and that’s pretty much what I did. It wasn't even a...
Being pregnant is a blessing, a beautiful blessing; so, don't get me wrong when I say... being pregnant during a Florida summer is the absolute worst, because it is. If I had the ability, the luxury really, to choose...
I always thought I'd be that mainstream Mama, up on the latest baby trends, and who loves a good Pottery Barn Kids catalog and adorable preppy baby clothes. However when it came to trying to conceive and then choosing birth providers, I was...
