 August 24th, 2009 I was recently asked when would be a good time to start potty training a child. Depending on who you ask, it could be anywhere between 18 to 24 months or later, but the truth is each child is different, so it’s better to check whether or not your child is exhibiting signs of readiness. Cues that your child [...]
 August 22nd, 2009 After about 15-20 strawberries (cut into quarters, so about 80 pieces of strawberries), 2 bowls of cereal, a bagel, a hand full of blueberries and some french fries, guess who is STILL crying like he hasn’t eaten in 5 days???!! THE BOTTOMLESS PIT!!!!!
 August 22nd, 2009 There are so many children’s items that get recalled that I never hear about, so I thought it would be a good idea to keep a running list so us mothers can stay informed. All information is taken from the US Consumer Product Commission web site (www.cpsc.gov).
Here is the list of recalls posted this month for [...]
 August 21st, 2009 I can’t remember the last time I went out to dinner and a movie on a Friday night, but today, when a friend of mine called and asked if I was free, I took her up on her offer. I rarely get to go out with friends, so this was a treat! We went to [...]
 August 21st, 2009 We finally took the plunge and moved Nick out of the crib and into the toddler bed, which means we also moved Chase from the toddler bed to the “big boy’s” bed. Except for slicing the top of my finger on the bed frame, it went well. Chase was ecstatic about his new bed. I [...]
 August 20th, 2009 When kids are hungry, they want food and they want it fast. One reason why I love our french fry cutter is that it’s so easy to use and easy to clean. Once we figured out that the potato had to be cut so it wasn’t taller than the cutting grid (duh!), it was a [...]
 August 20th, 2009 On finding Chase and Nick happily helping themselves to all the “good” stuff in Felicity’s room, I ask, “Are you boys having fun?”
Chase’s response? “Yes, Mommy. Now go and do your works.”
 August 19th, 2009 So I sit down at the computer after an exhausting night taking the kids to our local Farmer’s Market. Nick is crying but trying to settle down in his crib, while Felicity and Chase are in bed. All of a sudden, the crying sound gets louder and sounds closer. Yes, you guessed it — my baby boy is [...]
 August 18th, 2009 Those of you who love to eat at Souplantation as much as my family does will be excited to know that they have a coupon for a $19.99 Family Dinner. The coupon covers 2 adults and 2 children and is good through the end of August. I found the coupon on the kid’s activity sheet [...]
 August 18th, 2009 I don’t know how many of you moms are into recycling, but I am. I first started doing recycling as a way to bring in some extra money. I don’t make a ton of money doing it because I focus mainly on our family usage, but I do know of others who will scour neighborhoods and [...]
