A good mattress is vital to parents. We are already lacking sleep, so the cheap-y mattresses we got away with before kids will not cut it. Instead, parents need a quality mattress that supports them in maximizing the sleep that is possible. We had another brand for FOUR years and it already seemed saggy, worn, ...
I originally saw an Instagram ad for Alphapals and was immediately intrigued. They’re the cutest little plush letters with faces! As a former Pre-K teacher, my educator brain was screaming at me to get them for my little one. He’s right in the thick of learning his letters and I knew these would make the ...
Imaginative play is a huge deal in my house. I encourage it at every chance that I get with my kids. One of my kid’s favorite past times is building forts. He ALWAYS wants a fort to play in! This involves me dragging out my dining room chairs, hunting for spare sheets, and struggling to ...
After having kids, cleaning my house became SO much more of a task. Coming home from work, making dinner, getting the kids bathed and in bed, and then having to clean the house never got easier. I started 2022 with the expectation that I was going to outsource and automate as much as I could ...

Anyone who knows me knows that I rarely dress up. Thankfully I have a job that I can dress casually in most days but some days, when I have presentations, I have to be dressed nice. And with dressing nice usually comes uncomfortable clothes. Non-stretchy pants, high heels, the works. And that just doesn’t work ...
I love a good STEM toy, and when the MODU showed up on my Facebook advertising two years ago I’m pretty sure my eyes actually bugged. Cut to two years later and MODU remains my favorite toy OF ALL TIME. MODU is everything! There is so much I love about it and it has really ...
