Inspiring New Family Holiday Traditions
This quote by the ever so wise Dr. Seuss is one of my favorites! For me, the holidays represents a time to show those we care about that we are thinking of them. And this can be done with a handwritten holiday card, a present that you thought would be just right for them or spending time together. It really isn’t about how much money you spend but more the thought that goes into letting them know you are thinking of them! Spending quality time together really is what it is all about don’t you think?! What are some family traditions in your home? We really love family movie night,…

How to Tackle the “5 More Minutes” Bedtime Routine
Do you kids like to stall at bedtime? I think our daughter is the queen of stalling! Just the other night she threw a fit saying that I didn’t believe she was a big girl because I was making her go to bed before 8:30 (her usual bedtime). But she had been sick all week so thought it might be good idea. Wrong. So what do your kids say? That their eyelids hurt? They’ll die of thirst without more water? Mine usually throws out that she is hungry for a snack before bedtime. It’s like a big deja-vu when your own kid starts rattling off the same bedtime excuses you used back in…
