If you wanted to display your love for those closest to you right near your heart, what would be the perfect way to do this? How about a custom-made bird's nest necklace, with jewel-tone beads that signify anything you desire - the number of children you've been blessed with, or perhaps their birth months?

Bumgenius 4.0 Pocket Diaper Review
I really should have tried the Bumgenius pocket diapers a long time ago, but instead it took me over four years! The Bumgenius 4.0 One Size Stay Dry Pocket won Diaper of the Year from Padded Tush Stats so that's a pretty glowing recommendation.

Thanksgiving and Christmas are my favorite holidays, and I love hot drinks, soft snowfalls and getting cozy in front of our wood stove.....but I despise the sickness that comes and goes all throughout the season. It disrupts school, causes many sleepless nights and grouchy days and can get costly, too (Kleenex, medicine, extra laundry, doctor visits, etc.). Stomach viruses are on my naughty list. But thankfully, they resolve pretty quickly. Here Continue Reading
