So the baby shower I’ve been planning FOREVER is now over. It took place just yesterday and I had been planning on incorporating more “eastery” ideas, but it was a little hard since I am pretty far away (4 hour drive) from the party.
So how do you add elements of Easter or Springtime into a [...]

You know what DVD is on rotation at the Tales house right now … Pistachio from Veggie Tales! This is the fourth Veggie Tales DVD we’ve watched and I am as thrilled as always with the lessons learned, clever script and the fact that there is absolutely no fault in letting your child watch it. [...]

A few close friends know I am currently Star Wars obsessed. It was bound to happen raising two boys. They love anything “hero-like”. So it makes sense after being enamored with characters like Spiderman, Hulk and Ironman, they would move on to Galactic Heroes like Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Won and Clone Troopers.
Already, we do “dress-up” with [...]

My kids LOVE Legos. It’s an obsessive love. And I admit, I love watching them build and create. Often as we make towering buildings, I would think how cool it would be if we could make these LIFE-SIZE, so we can crawl through them. Actually, I am totally amazed that Lego’s hasn’t come up with [...]

My oldest son, 3.5 years old, is not “traditionally sized”. What do I mean by that? When I put pants on him, they either fit around his waist, but are too short. Or they fit properly his length, but are wide around his waist, so his pants are hanging off. So that means we often [...]

I am a HUGE Pampers fan! With two boys, I’ve tried Huggies, Luvs, Publix brand, Target brand and various cloth. Okay, I admit I love cloth diapers, but that was towards the very end of my diapering of Lochlan. And even then I used Pampers at night. But considering how Pampers Cruisers were my go-to [...]
