My favorite smoothie place just came out with their very own frozen, at-home version. Things like this make me happy. Jamba All Natural Smoothies Add 8 0z. of apple juice and blend away. Each pack contains enough fruit for 2 – 8 oz. smoothies. No artificial flavors, no artificial colors and no preservatives. Just a [...]
NO WAY was I EVER going to be a mom who had a kid that used a pacifier. Nope. My first didn’t use one, so why would any babies thereafter? Well…I stand corrected. My second baby is a pacifier baby. Those “paci’s” help her stay calm. Here we are, 10 + months later and not [...]
Congratulations to our winner, commenter number 37, Allyson! So many people comment on my 10 month old’s stunning blue eyes, so, I feel the need to protect those baby blues while we’re spending our days outdoors, underneath the hot, glaring sun. I know how bad that beautiful sun can be for our skin and eyes, [...]

Our parents took us to see the dentist every six months and that is a tradition we plan on following with our children. Neither I nor my husband have “perfect” teeth but we know how mouth pain feels if you don’t pay attention to the pearly whites. We have used many different toothbrushes and just [...]
With the holiday season fast approaching, it never fails, the moment you walk into the grocery store, you are faced with special deals on sweets and items for holiday baking. I don’t know about you but it’s temptation central for me. Even if I had no intention of baking those six different Christmas cookies, I’m [...]
Yeah, I know this post comes a little on the late side, but there was turkey day and all last week. I do find myself asking why am I trying to do this around the holidays? Trying to do this amongst the eating and drinking extravaganzas otherwise known as Thanksgiving and Christmas is a good [...]
Woah, I’m a few days late with this post, but better late than never, right? So the second week of Dad On the Run was a bit of a hectic week. I jogged only 12.02 miles (according to the treadmill) but (again) fell off the wagon in regards to eating good stuff again. I ate [...]
So yeah, I took my own advice and started slowly and actually made it through the first week of Dad On the Run with flying colors. I jogged a total of 13 miles in six days which really isn’t all that much, but it’s a start. Check back in six weeks and hopefully my weekly [...]
