Iowa Blogger Chasing Twins, Living Life, & More
While it still sits fresh in mind, I can’t believe two little boys are about to enter our family. To be 100% honest, the anxiety has definitely set in. We are past the halfway point and reality is, I’m on high alert right now. On Monday, the doctor told me while the cervix is thick […]
Guest post from: Mohamed Simon I’m tellin’ ya, with four kids, two dogs and a worn out momma working only part-time, we’ll save money wherever we can get it. As much as I hate those GEICO commercials, I’m not above teaching our youngest to dunk so we can score a college scholarship. Did I just […]
Too often I hear the typical corn line about Iowa. Would it surprise you to know some common celebrity faces you see that are IOWANS? Ashton Kutcher. This is one Iowan that many have discussed in recent weeks as he came as the “replacement” of Charlie Sheen on Two and a Half Men. Shawn Johnson. […]
So you’re a month out from the due date. The nursery is painted, the crib is in place, and you can feel the baby inside of you, kicking and trying to get out. It’s an exciting and scary time, and you’ve probably many hours getting prepared and going over your to-do list. Everything from doctor’s […]
Later this week, I will be sharing with you all about a fun (and Yummy!) business opportunity that is perfect for moms especially who want a way to be in control of their own business and make an income while giving you the chance to make a schedule that is right for you! We all love chocolate […]
My girls love bananas but sometimes, our schedules get so busy that bananas aren’t the first snack grabbed and we end up with those lovely brown bananas sitting atop the microwave. Maybe it’s the pregnancy making me Betty Homemaker but I decided I wanted to find a simple and easy banana bread recipe to try! […]
While looking for something for our family to do this weekend, I discovered a tweet I had to check out in regards to a free admission ticket. While I had been looking at Living History Farms, I saw a wide list of participating locations in the Smithsonian Magazine Museum Day. Saturday, September 24th marks this […]
It has been four years since my headaches first started. I always had back pain here and there after my car accident when I was 19 but the headaches took the cake. I couldn’t just pop a Tylenol and be on my way, I couldn’t focus, I couldn’t understand. Someone who as a child was […]
While I thought the words would come easy in finding a way to help suicide prevention, it’s not as easy as I thought. I wanted to find a way to do my part to help and honor a friend and my mind is speechless of what to say. Suicide prevention hits close to home as […]
Meet the twins. These two are double trouble already. They’ve sucked Mommy’s brain cells of any writing style. They’ve turned Mommy into a bruised pin cushion of blown veins. Mommy was forced to be admitted to the hospital on Labor Day. After five bags of fluid, I finally was no longer showing signs of dehydration. […]
September 11th will always be remembered. It changed many’s thoughts on life in a whole new way. As I walked into my high school and Freshman Spanish class, it didn’t sound real hearing the typical “jokesters” cracking jokes about a plane crash. It did not take long for our Principal to come across the loud […]
Whenever we are shopping, I like to check the clearance spots. You never know when you might find a shop-ahead gift or something you’ve thought about getting but just didn’t want to pay regular price for. This week, my father in law and his girlfriend were up visiting from Florida. After having lunch and doing […]
With the twins on the way, I’m looking at anything to “re-prepare” myself for two newborns instead of one (someone have the hair color ready for me) You can subscribe for FREE to Baby Talk Magazine for that extra dose of anything you might be looking for as you prepare for your little one. I […]
Depression and feeling alone is a serious thing. Sometimes an individual just needs to know there is someone out there willing to listen. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. No matter what your background, age, gender, race, social status, no one is “immune”. Suicide is an international problem and a major public health concern. Suicide claims approximately […]
With constant advances in technology, it’s no surprise how many individuals have laptops. It just makes life easier being able to stay portable with travel, classes, business, and so much more. This is an amazing deal for those that need a laptop case to get your computer wherever you’re traveling might take you! This would […]
