One of the hardest things to do after children is keeping that spark alive between husband and wife. We sometimes get so wrapped up in raising the kids, worrying about money, stressing about making sure everything is just right, that we forget to kindle the spark that brought us together in the first place. I have a few friends that swear date night with their husbands brings them closer.
As parents, we have all heard our children pester for a pet of their own. This can be a big decision and depending on the ages of the children, one that should not be entered into lightly. Children will say most anything to receive a pet of their own, but what you need to realize is that children, even those with the best intentions, will need your help in caring for the pet of your choice. So think carefully about how much time and money you have available to care for this pet, before making the decision as well.
So your baby is growing up and is ready for solids. Now the decision needs to be made as to whether to purchase pre-made baby food or make your own. When it comes to making your own baby food, it really is very easy. Most of what you cook for yourself, your baby can enjoy too. A few things to have on hand to make this process easy is a blender or food processor, extra ice cube trays, and a can do attitude.
I’ve been invited to a baby shower for my cousin in a few weeks. Since my children are getting older, I decided spend some time browsing the baby departments of both my favorite local and online stores to see what products are out there today.
I remember reading over and over again to make sure my bag was packed to take to the hospital. Yet, most articles never really said what should be located inside this bag. I did figure out the essentials, and wanted to share with you some thoughts.
You will be working very hard to have this baby, working up a sweat and then some. So, one essential is your own soaps, shampoos, and lotions. It is true that the hospital will supply you with these, but using your own will make you feel more comfortable and more like yourself. Don’t forget to bring your own toothpaste and toothbrush too. There’s nothing like a good tooth brushing to give you the lift you may need.
A few days ago I wrote about cold weather birthday parties and mentioned that a great party favor could be a scarf for each child in attendance. I wanted to share two easy fleece scarf patterns with you. These can be made with your child’s favorite character, animals, or in their favorite colors. Any fleece print you find at the fabric store can be made into these wonderful scarves. Take a moment and make one for yourself, too. Every pattern I have read says to make them as wide as you like, and as long as you prefer. These are very customizable for you and to fit any size person.
I must admit, I believe I am done having children. Yet I do remember there being certain perks to being pregnant that I don’t get now as a mom. Some of these perks you may not think about, others I know you are using to your full advantage. So, let’s run through my Top 10 Pregnancy Perks!

There are many great ideas for children’s birthday party themes some require more preparation than others. Over the next few months I will be sharing with you some of my favorites, and hope that you too will share some of yours. I know how important it is for your children to have a birthday party that is fun and exciting, but I also know how important it is that you are not stressed to the max during the events. Cold weather birthday parties can cause more stress than need be, as the children do tend to be inside your home causing a bit of chaos that you may not enjoy. Thinking outside the box may be just what you need to do to make these cold weather birthday parties fun and exciting for your child, but not a stressful event for you.

My children just received many great gifts for the holidays. Now it is time to thank all the gift givers. I could go out and purchase a box of thank you note cards, but that just seems so impersonal. My children love to design cards and write notes to each other, so we have decided to make our own thank you cards this year. My children and I gather together our card making supplies and set out to design thank you cards.
