Role Model Ricky’s Big Birthday Bash

Role Model Ricky's Big Birthday Bash by Jeremey and Janel Miller

Currently Peyton is in kindergarten and she is learning so much! One of her biggest challenges is sharing. Being an only child means that majority of the time it's just her so she gets to play with her toys by herself, she gets the last of the ice cream, she chooses what cartoon to watch. See where I am going with this? Peyton does not have to share with another child or consider another child's feelings most of the time. When she was younger that made for some interesting play dates. But now ...

Bear Snores On Stages Theatre

Peyton loves theatre so I try to take her to whatever performances we can get to. Stages Theatre is one of our favorite places to attend shows at. Why? Because the actors and actresses are children! Yes, there are some adults but for the most part there are kids acting at Stages and putting on incredible performances. Last weekend we took in Bear Snores On. You may have read the book, Bear Snores On, it's very popular in the preschool and kindergarten crowd. Peyton was thrilled to see one of her ...

Ice Chips the Beneficial Candy

Ice Chips Xylitol candy

I have a real sweet tooth. I could munch on candy all day long and just be in heaven! But last summer I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome  which basically means my body does not process sugars and carbs like normal people. I'm more similar to a diabetic. And my body loves to take those sugars and carbs and turn them into fat! It's a struggle. With Ice Chips Xylitol Candy I can enjoy them, satisfy my sweet tooth and be kinder to my body. Xylitol contains 40% less calories than sugar ...
