The kids and I have settled into a pretty nice summer routine and it usually begins with watching a mom-curated YouTube playlist while I drink my coffee. This is usually after breakfast and before we start whatever adventures we have planned for the day. I look through the channels we’ve subscribed to and the videosContinue reading “10 Kid-Friendly YouTube Channels To Watch With Your Kids”

Road Trip Diaries: Hershey, PA
After driving through Ohio and New York and spending a week in Massachusetts, most people would consider that an awesome family vacation. We would call that JUST THE BEGINNING.

It Certainly Doesn’t Smell Like Roses
I’ve been cloth diapering for a few weeks now and we’ve officially made the decision to continue with it. This means a trip to the store soon to pick up some more pre-folds because I’d really rather not be doing laundry every day for the next three years. Dan is pretty stoked with the wholeContinue reading “It Certainly Doesn’t Smell Like Roses”

At some point during the course of the day I hit the point of no return – watching the way he abused his belongings had irked me one too many times; putting his toys away for him either because he wouldn’t or becauseContinue reading “Love Thursday: The Things We Keep”
