Today marked the first day of me taking the kids with me to the extraordinarily awesome pool at our new gym. We arrived at about 12:30 p.m. after lunch and I dropped the kids off at the very posh childcare facility. This place is a very well thought-out area that…

Success is in the eye of the beholder.
My mom recently sent me this video highlighting moms of famous peeps and what those moms did or said to raise successful people. I have to say I have somewhat mixed emotions on the video. I mean, am I always looking for sure-fire ways to raise my kids to be successes?…

Potty time.
Will tried his potty for the first time ever today. He was so excited! This kid has been so interested in doing his business like a big boy lately so I finally gave him the opportunity to prove himself. Nothing really came out but he still had a great time.…

Today I attended a consignment sale event in our area. I was actually there to promote my business and meet other moms to share what a fabulous resource it is! Anyhoo, I have been so amazed at how these moms come in with their double strollers all geared up with…
