Learn How to Protect #LittleLungs from RSV

This post was sponsored by AstraZeneca as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central and all opinions expressed in my post are my own. I remember the day we brought Peyton home from the hospital, it was nerve wracking! It was a cold, rainy day in May. 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 ...

I Am So Bored!

I am so Bored! By Henrike Wilson

I am so bored is a phrase I frequently hear on the weekends. Peyton will wander out of her room and mumble how bored she is and ask me for something to do. Well, she doesn't necessarily like my ideas! Because I tell her to pick up her toys or do her homework.  Instead, she mopes around the house until she finds something to do or she lays on the couch until I tell her to move. When we read the story I Am So Bored! by Henrike Wilson it reminded me of Peyton! In I Am So Bored! Baby Bear is ...

See You Later, Alligator by Sally Hopgood

See you later, alligator! After a while, crocodile! That was one of my favorite things to say as a child. Peyton and I say it to each other all the time.
