This post brought to you by GoodNites. All opinions are 100% mine. I have 4 kids so I know every kid is different. My oldest was practically dancing on her first birthday while my youngest is content with crawling at 14 months old. Still, it is tough not to compare children when it comes to […]
Labor Day Activities in Atlanta
Staying in Atlanta this Labor Day weekend? Visiting from out of town (or just OTP)? There is a TON of activities to enjoy for the whole family. Be prepared for a little a lot of traffic, some crowds downtown, and perhaps an afternoon rain storm and just go out and have a good time! Want […]
Four week challenge: Five tools to help me lose weight
I had a good summer. I ate and drank and was merry…a little too much of all of those things. So now that the kids are back in school, I decided to take the time to refocus on my health. I need to focus on getting back to my pre-baby weight. I am done breastfeeding […]
Make the perfect summer drink with Keurig’s Brew Over Ice
I bought a Keurig single serve coffee maker for my husband last year. He loves coffee, loves the single-serving nature, and loves me for buying it for him (well and for other things). However, since I don’t drink coffee it was mostly just used by him. Every once in awhile I’ll make myself tea but […]
I really wanted to grill this summer. #rgparty
This is supposed to be a post about grilling. I love the idea of grilling. Love the taste of grilled food. Love being outside and away from the kids (because the grill is hot). So I was going to start grilling. My friends at Red Gold Tomatoes wanted to help me in my grilling quest […]

You dirty bum. #LetsTalkBums
As moms we clean a lot of “bums”. I know it feels like I spend half my day changing diapers. And when I hear that…”Mom, can you please help me wipe myself” from my three year old, I sometimes want to scream. But for once, all my bum wiping has paid off! It has gotten […]
Disney dreaming…
My family and I at a Disney dinner, 1993 The good people at MomTV are actually compensating me for talking about my Disney memories! Lucky me! Talking Disney is already one of my favorite subjects so this was a no brainer for me. I loved the place when I first set foot on the Walt […]
Wait…that’s a La-Z-Boy?
The comfort-focused furniture brand is now fashion-forward too. One of the cool things about attending the BlogHER conference in Chicago last month was getting to check out so many brands! Sometimes I get stuck in a bubble and haven’t learned about a new company or seen the updated persona of an old one. The later […]
Don’t let your kids be Taken! Watch me in the #RaisingAmerica special on @HLNTV
My daughter being taped. The biggest fear of any parent is someone taking your child. I think everyone has had that moment when their eyes start scanning the playground and fear creeps up their spine as they can’t find their child. For most of us, that moment is fleeting and we spy our child and […]
