Looking for the Perfect Tween Sandal?
Summer is in full swing. The kids are running from house to house and playing with their friends. But we have one rule that everyone at our house has to follow, remove your shoes when you come in from outside. For kids, this can be one of the toughest rules to follow. They're busy. They are on the go and the last thing they want to do is stop and take off tennis shoes when they come in the house to grab something. Then they have to stop, untie, put them on and tie them up. That can waste some ...

It's a great way for her to become more independent and give me a break. But, in all the years I have been visiting Chicago we have never gone to Six Flags Great America. Can you ...
The Perfect Cheesy Snack for On The Go
It's summertime! If your family is anything like mine that means you are out and about enjoying all the summer activities. Taking in festivals, art crawls, maybe doing a little road trip, hiking the local parks and taking in the zoo. Those are all things we've done this summer. But what do they all have in common? Anyone? They are all on the go with limited access to snacks. And if you have children with you, you need snacks. Preferably ones that travel easily and taste great. Moon Cheese is ...
Is it Time for a Minivan?
Starting a family is an exciting time. But I remember once I found out I was pregnant, one of the first things I considered changing was our vehicle. Sedans can be a little cramped when your start adding car seats and bringing along baby gear. Maybe it's time to consider a minivan? I know, I used to cringe at the word minivan too. But they are not the same as what our parents drove us around in. Now they have some pretty nice ones. The Chrysler Pacifica is rated #2 in minivans and has some ...
