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 ...
Pottery has always been a huge interest of mine. I took a few ceramics classes in college and completely fell in love. The look, the texture, the weight, it just FEELS expensive, you know? I knew I wanted to get a set of handmade ceramic dishes for my new house and I knew exactly where ...
My kid is officially potty training age and when I tell you I was dreading it, I was DREADING it. There’s a sort of convenience about diapers that eases the worry about where the bathroom is at the grocery store or having to bring the potty to use in the back of my Jeep at ...
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.

Their customer service is also excellent. When we wanted a multi-use kid sofa option, they were the first place I looked. Luckily for ...
Some of you may remember we used the Yoto player for our oldest. She still uses it nightly. We LOVED it, but our youngest is a little less able to operate putting the cards in so we looked for options that might be easier to use for him. Enter Toniebox. Similar concept to the Yoto ...
Long time readers may remember that we once reviewed a genius-ly designed travel bed for toddlers by Milliard. Not only was it perfect for our needs, but the quality was impeccable. I like to keep up with brands that produce quality items, so some late-night Amazon browsing led me back to Milliard’s current product list. ...
