Being a stay at home mom with a toddler running around, errands to run, and a  home to maintain finding time to get to the gym is never easy.  Before my son was born I was always heading to the gym during lunch or after work or on weekends with my husband, but now it seems like that is not often possible.  I don’t have a gym at home, but I found some great at home workout from Valerie Waters that don’t require a lot of gear or space.  I can even do this when my son is taking a nap and I have 30 minutes of me time!

Long gone are the days when my son would patiently lie still while I changed his diaper. From wiggles to kung fu kicks, my active son now loves to watch me sweat while doing this dreadful dead and nonetheless has convinced me that I rather let him play in his poop rather than change his diaper…well until now…and all thanks to Huggies® Slip-On® Diapers.


As you can see, Lil B is a true olympian, so when I learned of the new Huggies® Slip-On® Diapers, we were both happy.  Lil B loving that he could slip it on like shorts, which made him feel like a big boy and me, loving that he was now allowing me to change his dirty diapers. Its a win-win all around!

Yes, that’s right, I dutifully took prenatal vitamins well before I even found out I was pregnant. How’s that for getting a head-start???  Here’s why…. View Post

Every August I have the same fantasy – perhaps you know the one:

My daughter Sophie and I spending a lovely day clothes shopping at the mall, picking out a cute and coordinated wardrobe worthy of Teen Magazine fashion spread, and then sharing girly secrets over a relaxing lunch.

I can hear the moms with teenage daughter chuckling – because they all know how that shopping day really ends – with one or both of us angry, crying, and not speaking to the other.

So last year I came up with a plan of action. A halfway point between fantasy and reality that would increase our odds of having a bearable, and maybe even bonding experience getting ready for Back To School. I have found that, for us – it works pretty well.

So here they are – my 5 Tips for Back To School Shopping with a Teenage Fashionista. View Post

I was filled with anticipation all year for the impending arrival of BlogHer ’12 and now its over.  As the saying goes all good things must come to an end. But this is by far the end for me, its a start to new beginnings.  I met some amazing bloggers (some finally in person, others I will forever follow).

If you never attended or think of attending the next one (Chicago in 2013) know this one thing…. View Post
