First, I want to apologize there are no kids in this post. Unfortunately, the timing did not work out for Peyton to photograph with this kit before I had to post. But I will update the photos once I get home and can get Peyton and this kit in the same room. I will tell you this, she knew the Outdoor Adventure Exploration Kit for Kids was coming and was pretty excited but then she went for a 2 week stay with her Aunt before it arrived. She was bummed she couldn't help. But let's get on to talk ...
When a Birth Plan Doesn’t Go As Planned
Peyton's Momma was compensated for this article by Choices Matter, however, this is our actual birth story and experience. Having a birth plan is a great idea. I had one. A very detailed one with everything written out. But there was one thing I forgot to think about, pain management. I knew I wanted an epidural but beyond that, I hadn't thought about it. And then the day arrived. The day Peyton was going to be born, or so we thought. We arrived around 11 am on a Tuesday morning to start the ...

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 ...

Should You Visit Six Flags Great America Chicago??
I've been spending part of my summers in Chicago for my whole life. I have family down there and as kids, we used to stay and visit with my cousin for weeks. Now, as an adult, I go down and visit several times a year. In addition to all those little visits, Peyton spends a few weeks in Chicago every summer with family. 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 ...
