Weekend Wrap-Up: Pool Days

The rain comes, it stays, it WON’T GO AWAY, it floods. And then it goes away, the temperature shoots up into the mid to high 90ºs, and the rain WON’T COME BACK. Welcome to Texas. Needless to say, the hot, dry weather has inspired us to get a pool. Well, a wading pool for the kids that is. They Keep Reading

Weekend Wrap-Up with my toddler Rock Climber

Several months ago, a rock climbing gym opened near us, and a part of me wanted to try it from the get-go, but the other part of me is more than a little bit terrified of heights, so we’ve put it off. Finally, Garrett started begging to try it, so we finally went. Much to my surprise, it wasn’t Keep Reading

5 Things I Learned From Homeschooling My Kindergartener

So. My five-year-old has graduated up from pre-school to kindergarten. It’s a big incentive for homeschooling, letting them progress at their own pace.  But kindergarten brings a more serious, lengthy curriculum. It’s not like preschool. It’s harder, and takes a lot more time, and it’s opened my Keep Reading

Why We Pay Our Kids To Do Chores

I’m still kind of new to this whole parenting thing - after all, my oldest is only four (and yet, he’s already four - where did time go!), so naturally, I find myself devouring parenting advice like it’s going out of style.  I’ve read both pros and cons to paying your kids to do chores, here’s why Keep Reading

My Kids’ Favorite TV Shows

My Kids’ Favorite TV Shows

As a mom, I’ve struggled a little bit with whether or not, and how much I should be letting my kids watch tv.  For now, , our decision has been that a little tv time every afternoon while mom gets some work done is okay, and it's one of the ways we get our kids to let us work. But we monitor each Keep Reading

Why We Don’t Let Our Kids Listen To Music In Bed

Why We Don’t Let Our Kids Listen To Music In Bed

Parenting is surprisingly tough, and I don’t mean the 24/7 responsibility of the kids themselves so much as the social aspect.  Everybody has an opinion on what the parents around them should do, and many of us are pretty vocal about it, even when we try not to be.  It’s good to be able to discus Keep Reading

DIY Natural Kids’ Cleaning Kit

Hi all! Today I'm sharing a post from Kathleen of Prompt Cleaners. This is such a great idea! I mean, what kids wouldn't love having their own cute cleaning kit?!     Most of us do the cleaning while kids are still in bed sleeping or before they get back from school. When the children get back Keep Reading

How To Save Money On Homeschool Curriculum

I guess school has already started and the time for ordering curriculum this year is past. But since this year is my first year as a real homeschooler, wrapping my mind around all this curriculum stuff has taken some time, so I’m running a little late.  Based on the recommendations of several Keep Reading

Best Disposable Diapers

Best Disposable Diapers

I’m a big fan of cloth diapers, and always will be. From cheap Baby City diapers, to Smarti Pants, and Fuzzibunz, I love ‘em! But sometimes, it just makes sense to use disposable diapers. Over the last three-and-a-half years of diapering, I’ve tried nearly every inexpensive brand of diapers you Keep Reading

How To Make Edible Play dough

Garrett has been asking if we can make playdough for over a week now, but I’ve been putting him off because, even though it's one of my favorite indoor toddler activities, his sister is going through a stage where she wants to eat everything (and climb, and dump, and throw, and… you get the idea), Keep Reading
