Pregnancy and Infancy Loss: What Not to Say
If only one person in the world could relate to this post, I would still share it. Unfortunately, the number of women that experience a miscarriage, stillbirth, SIDS, and other types of infancy loss is quite high. If you are part of the ‘1 in 4 women’ statistic, know that we are too. Personally we aren’t sure that the numbers make it any easier. While a lot of women can relate, we all deal with the loss differently and some experiences are more traumatic than others, but this is not a contest for who has the worst case scenario. It is heartbreaking for anyone in any of these situations. If…

Beach Trips with Toddlers: What to bring
To all my beach loving mamas that don’t mind a little sand and salty water, our favorite season is almost here! As the spring breakers make their way to the beaches in the next few weeks, we are just getting started here on the gulf coast. Living close enough to the beach to enjoy it every day is a luxury that I do not take for granted. Now that the kids are somewhat self-sufficient, I have a feeling that day trips will likely be a regular occurrence for my family once again. While I know it’s a task with toddlers, I would say it is totally worth the work. It…

Tips for Disney World with a Large Group (Including Toddlers)
Disney World is one of the most popular destinations for a family vacation. We were so fortunate to experience Disney with the kids at such a young age (3 and 4) and we had an amazing time! Our entire group consisted of six adults and five kids. (Our family of six and my in laws.) We learned a lot on this trip and we will definitely be more prepared for the next one. We stayed at the Disney Riviera Resort, which is close to Epcot. My favorite thing about this location was that we could see the Epcot fireworks from our room and we were able to take the skyline…
