I recently went with a friend to a baby store to help her with her baby registry. We had a lot of fun picking out things for her baby girl that will be born in December. We looked at everything from bottles to blankets. When we got to the car seat aisle, she seemed a little overwhelmed. I told her that she couldn't go wrong with a Britax. Britax has symbolized the ultimate in both safety … [Read more...]

I have tried to start this post over and over again for the past few days since I have gotten back home from LA. I keep having to stop to really think through my amazing weekend and pinch myself to be sure it was real. It was real, and a huge thanks goes out to Marshall and Dustin and the entire … [Read more...]
One of my husbands and my favorite thing to do in February is watching the Superbowl. While our Colts didn't make it this year, we will still have a lot of fun watching it together. Its a little bittersweet, it being the last football game of the season, but I can't imagine not watching it with him. If I could, I would buy us tickets to go... maybe next year when it is here in Indy! Guest … [Read more...]

The cold and flu season is upon us. I am so busy this holiday season that I can not afford to not get a good 7-8 hours of sleep at night. If I don't, I am a less effective teacher and mom.

Breathe Right has just released a new Advanced strip that is even better at opening the nasal passages, which … [Read more...]
