I’ve never really been a make-up collector. I like make-up, I wear it weekly, not daily, and I do have my personal favorites, but my heart belongs to moisturizer. That’s where I consider myself to have a wee bit of expertise. I’ve tried a good portion of the Target aisles and the department stores too. Plus, …

There’s no reason not to get a fabulous workout even without a gym membership. I’ve found some fantastic fitness classes, right in the comfort of my own home. If, like me, your couch is covered in laundry that needs to be folded and put away, why not put that off by watching sweating with some …

In the last few years I’ve had a handful of close friends adopt- some from overseas, some domestically. A few opted to explore the foster to adopt program and have welcomed children that way. Whatever the means, these are amazing families, welcoming amazing children full of promise and a bright future. I’m so blessed to …

We moved into a new rental home two months before I was scheduled to give birth to our twins. With very little time, very little energy, and very little expendable income, the prospect of decorating my twins’ nursery on a budget gave me hives. I was eight months pregnant. With twins.

With a newly potty trained toddler and twin infants, I don’t mess around when it comes to my diaper bag. I received a large, traditional diaper bag at my baby shower for the twins, and while it held everything I needed, the single strap became cumbersome when loading the kids in and out of the …

I was previously a normal don’t-care-what-toothpaste-we-use-as-long-as-it-tastes-good kind of person. Then my daughter was born, and I wanted safer options of everything. I decided to make my own toothpaste. Ha! I am no Pinterest mama. I was kind of lazy and wasn’t into spending the time to get the right ingredients, so my family ended up …

They are named after the color yellow symbolizing joy, sunshine, and energy (happens to be my favorite color too) and 108 is the Pantone color for a bright and sunny yellow. Not only …

My husband and I just ain’t got time for breakfast. He’s a grab-a-coffee-and-chug-it-on-the-way-to-work kinda guy.
