I have a daughter who is 1.5 years old. She is my world and from our first year I found products I couldn’t live without and some I used maybe 1-2 times.

I officially started my homeschooling journey this past year with my oldest. I am SO passionate about being a homeschooling mama that I want to share some of the things that work really well for us. Both of my boys, ages 6 & 4, have sensory needs so our schooling looks a little different than the norm… and that is okay because we are a homeschooling family!

If you're expecting a baby and plan to formula feed, or maybe you're being forced to formula feed while you work out breastfeeding - here are some products that have made my postpartum experience so much better!

My favorite gifts ideas for kiddos of all ages that are fun and educational!

Baby needs are so many and the options there are just so overwhelming and the opinions moms have vary drastically that you might be confused by who to listen to, so my list here is for the mom who is practical, plans to have more than one kid and thus, values good quality products over high-end brand names or/and cheap products to just make it through a single baby or a single occasion. I didn’t buy so many things the world recommends or suggests you MUST get that for me just ended up being an unnecessary gadget that takes space. At the end of this, all I want to say is that if you feel overwhelmed, it’s really very normal and it IS overwhelming but believe it or not, in no time you’ll figure it out and your mom brain while might become a bit forgetful in so many things, it does feel like a new compartment in both your brain and heart open up to help pay attention to all the details and take them in. You got it, mama!!
