We all love taking hundreds or thousands of pictures of our kids. Then, if you’re like me, you end up letting them sit on your computer because they all look the same or they just aren’t “print-worthy.” It’s time to get print-worthy! We asked 2 local photographers for...

Jamie - My new thing was I took a hike. It wasn’t my first hike but one day when we found ourselves bored, we hopped in the car and headed off to a hiking spot rather than vegged out in front of the tv like we would’ve done usually Trish - My new thing this week was layers.  I have long...

by Amanda from HushAmanda.com I’m not exactly a professional, but I’m no freshman either. I’ve clocked nearly 5 years of experience in this “I am mom” gig, so I feel capable enough to start tossing out classifications for all of us. Bring on the labels, right? The following...

With the middle of the year approaching, it’s probably a good time to review your “first of the year” financial goals.  Many of us start out the new year with certain goals in mind – whether it be contribute more to our retirement funds, starting (or beefing up) that college savings plan or ...

So, you’ve had the baby – now what?  If you are like me, after a few weeks of taking it easy, you can’t wait to start moving around a bit more than you have been.  If you previously enjoyed regular exercise, you’re probably more than ready to jump back into your routine and get moving. Mary...

Week 20 and we’re still going strong! Jamie - This week was the end of an experiment. I am what you call a flexitarian.  I eat meat rarely (maybe once a month.  I eat fish more often).  Personally, I think it’s a stupid name for someone who can’t commit (j/k to all those flexitarians...

I’m not afraid to admit that I don’t have a clue what I’m doing when it comes to raising multiples. If you have ever seen me in public with them it’s pretty apparent. It seems that with each stage/age I’m presented with a whole new set of problems. Most recently it’s...

~Kristine Gresh There are a few moments when it hits you like a ton of bricks – you’re a mom! These moments are different for each mom, depending on circumstances, type of personality (of you and your child) and your general attitude about parenting and motherhood. So, rather than supply you...

What have we been up to this week? Find out! Jamie - This week, we took a day off.  My oldest (who is in 4K) said she needed some “Mommy time” and so we took Friday and kept it all to ourselves.  We spent the day vegging out in our jammies,  watching a movie (Sound of Music – again),...

We’ve all been there.  Your once doting hairdresser routinely schedules you along with 5 other people so you get to play musical chairs across the salon, your new babysitter just doesn’t jive with your family, or you’ve waited to see the doctor for 45 minutes for the third time in...
