Peyton and I will be arriving at Disney World in just a few short weeks! I am so excited I can barely contain myself. Plus, Peyton doesn't know when we are going. She just knows we are going sometime in the next year. Oh, I cannot wait until she finds out. Her face is going to be priceless! I'll try to video tape it for you all but I may get too excited and forget. Anyways, traveling with kids to Disney World is stressful. At least I think it's stressful.

Don’t Forget the Labels
Our weather is changing. I can feel winter knocking on our door.

I was a first-time mom and just trying to figure out how to breastfeed my daughter and change diapers. I remember how fragile she felt, we were both afraid we were going to accidently hurt her. The next few months went by pretty ...
Sebastian’s Diagnoses
Last week, Sebastian had his wellness visit. Now that he's 15 years old I dread these visits. I have anxiety and stress about finding out something is wrong with my fur baby. But I still do them. Every single year I take him in for his wellness visit and vaccinations. This year, they found something. Sebastian has lost a little over a pound since his visit last year. And then upon physical examination, a lump was found on his throat. A lump! When the doc told me my baby had a lump on his throat ...
Absences Add Up
Depending on where you are – your kids have likely been in school for a month or two already. Have they missed any days during that time? How many? Is that even something you think about regularly? When they did miss – you probably did everything you needed to do to ensure that they stayed caught up, right?
