Aubrey, It is hard to believe that two years ago, I was in labor with you right now. We had a long fight for you to come meet us, didn’t we? It was a little bumpy at first but once you were up and out of that hospital, you were ready to go little girl! […]

Are you an Iowa parent online? Do you blog? Are you a company or service located within the Central Iowa area that would like to connect with families and share yourself?

While my children are obviously too young to be online and chatting it up with friends on Facebook or in chat rooms, my two little brothers are entering the 5th and 6th Grade this year and LOVE exploring online. It’s crazy watching all the things they already know how to do online but I also […]
The other day I found old poems I wrote back in high school. I would always scribble here and there. As I look at them, I remember how much my life has put me through but at the same time, it’s made me who I am today. I truly am a hopeless romantic. I hope […]

As most know, I am the mom of two rugrats that keep me on the go. Sometimes my headaches get the best of me and I feel so annoyed that all I can do is cuddle with my little girls when I would love to be up and running around playing with them. With Summer, […]
While when we lived in Ames, we had various issues when packages were delivered, we had an overall great experience with our delivery service workers. We LOVED our UPS driver who was always chipper.

I often see tons of breastfeeding moms online and offline. When I was pregnant with Kelsie, I was nervous but decided yes I wanted to breastfeed her. I prepped myself trying to learn as much as I could and even had the papers ready to rent a pump when she was born. Well, I sucked. […]
As most of you know, our “fur baby” Whiskey came from a rescue in Illinois. Since the time of receiving him into our family, my Mom has adopted his brother and is in the process of also adopting their sister Pepper. This awesome rescue can now be found on Facebook but we want each and […]
I can not believe that we are already into August now. It is unbelievable. Next month, Aubrey will turn TWO! But with it being August, it does not mean the days are any less busy!
