Top 10 Disadvantages Of Breastfeeding
This post contains affiliate links. Usually, I would be highlighting all of the amazing advantages of breastfeeding but today I wanted to turn the tables a bit and talk about the top 10 disadvantages of breastfeeding. I was never able to nurse my first child, as she was in the NICU and would never latch after she got the bottle for almost a week. However, I was determined to breastfeed my boys and I did! My boys were boob boys 100% and I have no regrets at all. I really loved that connection a mother has with their breastfeeding child. I am totally pro-breastfeeding and it comes with amazing benefits.…

This is a sponsored post from myself on behalf of MD Diet. All opinions are my own. MD Diet Update #3 When I did my last post about my weight loss and living a healthy lifestyle, I had lost another pound which brought me down to 129. This weight is only 5 pounds away from my goal.

This is in no way the fault of anyone except for me. I am taking full responsibility for my actions.…
The Best Work From Home Job For Moms
This post contains affiliate links. I have always wanted to work from home and be able to stay with my kids. I started putting my brain to work and think about my options.

Why I Cut YouTube Out Of Our Home
YouTube Addiction So, we have had a crazy rough time around my house with my children’s addiction to YouTube. Like, seriously, ADDICTED! My kids would watch all innocent, kid shows. Some of their favorites were EvanTube, EthanGamer, Ryan’s Toy Review. I’ve actually sat with them and watched these shows and never saw anything that would surprise or shock me in any way. I actually liked some of the videos. However, since I have been hearing about some things happening, we put the brakes on YouTube real fast! It’s actually been about three weeks since we haven’t had YouTube in our home and I am loving it! I feel like my kids…

Homemade Gelato That Could Win Awards
This is a sponsored post on behalf of Nellie’s Free Range Eggs. All opinions are my own. In my home, we love gelato! We went to Italy last year and ate a bit too much gelato but, when in Rome! The difference between gelato and regular ice cream is the density. Gelato is dense and doesn’t have the extra air that is put into the ice cream they sell in the stores. Gelato is something special. If you’ve never had it, you need to give it a try. I’ve been thinking about this weekend and how the Oscars, the grandest award show will be on this Sunday. The Oscars made…
How I’m Preparing For My Summer Body

Now that it’s the middle of February, I am anxious about getting fit and into shape for the summer time. I am about 5’4 and weight about 134 pounds. I definitely don’t have much to lose but I have a number that I am wanting to reach.

Valentine’s Crafty Wreath For The Home
I never used to think of myself as being a crafty person but I gotta say, over the last year I have really been enjoying doing crafty things. Crafts are very relaxing and kind of therapeutic because you are sitting in silence, really focused on the task at hand. Valentines is coming up quickly and I wanted to do something fun for my kids to enjoy and cute to have in the house. This Valentine’s wreath was the perfect thing! The dollar store is where I scored everything I needed for this craft. All the things you see only cost me, 7 buckaroos! I was super excited about this deal. Seriously,…

These peeves are mostly out of our control and we’re just supposed to go along with it. I’ve learned how to just let things roll off my shoulders a long time ago.

Surviving Your First Month Of Mamahood
This post may include affiliate links which means I may receive a small commission for a purchase you make at no cost to you. While pregnant, you are going to be daydreaming of your baby that you haven’t met yet. You can’t wait until you get to hold your baby and bring them home.
