Growing Tree Toys Brings out the “Girly Girl”!

Reading time: 2 – 4 minutes We received this toy (My First Purse Toy – $12.95) from Growing Tree Toys a few weeks ago – after the slow of the holiday let up. I handed it to Carli (my 20 month old) and she went “Oooh!” For a good 20 minutes she sat down, exploring [...]

Reading time: 4 – 6 minutes Last week I went to a new OBGYN in Winter Park, as recommended to me by a friend. As it turns out, it is a small practice as their hours are by appointment only. So the wait was literally, less than 5 minutes. I went in, filled out a [...]

Filed under Children, General, Pregnancy, Sponsored

Reading time: 2 – 2 minutes I know in part it has to do with just being pregnant – but, my GOD – I am tired ALL the time. I usually nap when Carli does – and sometimes (as Forrest has been home this week) I will sleep until the evening time. Still, though – [...]

Filed under Children, Pictures, Pregnancy, Videos

Reading time: 2 – 4 minutes The only thing that I don’t quite understand about Disney’s Christmas Party, is that for something made for children – the hours surely aren’t anything to be recommended. 7pm+? Carli enjoyed all of an hour and a half before she just got way too tired. By 9:30, when the [...]

Filed under Children, General, Videos

Reading time: 2 – 4 minutes I was very nervous about Carli getting her first haircut. First, she has become extremely independent lately. Doesn’t need my help for squat! If you offer her your hand, she swats it away as if to say, “Pssh – Woman, I can do this myself!” and then she runs [...]

Reading time: 8 – 12 minutes I have a lot to be thankful for this year – as much as I have complained about this or that. What better day (other than every day) to show appreciation for the little things in your life? My Husband I was very fortunate to marry my best friend, [...]
