Nothing adds the perfect finishing touch to a well thought-out nursery like hanging the child’s name. It just seems to tie everything together and say, “Welcome little bundle of joy.” With this mind, my sister-in-law Jenae creates these little masterpieces. She has for every baby in our family and lately for everyone we know. Click [...]

A single Oreo + a sweet chocolate chip cookie = a marriage you can’t help but drool over. Surely, there isn’t a recipe better suited to kickoff the Great Vegas Mom Recipe Exchange. The Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookie was first introduced to me by Vegas momma Malorie. She found it on  BeckyBakes and believe it [...]

  If I lugged my two favorite little ones around everyday, I’d have the best legs in Vegas! However, that’s a little ambitious. But I did take them today to see the horses nearby. They looked so cute in the bike trailer. I looked back and saw that my nephew’s arm was wrapped around Lizzy. [...]

This weekend we conquered back-to-back birthday bashes. The first one was on Saturday. It was for my friend Whitney’s son Preston; he turned two. She really went all out. The party had MMMazing homemade food for mommy and a giant bounce house, trampoline, sandbox and swing-set for the kids. Whitney said she got the bounce [...]

Every mom loves taking photos of their little princes and beauty queens and I’m certainly no exception to the rule.

When Lizzy arrives she’ll be sportin’ this onesie to show her pit bull-pride, because it’s never too soon to start supporting a cause. The media has done this breed such an injustice. Therefore, she’s going to be the cutest little spokesmodel for her puppy companions. If raised in a loving home, pit bulls are some [...]

The nursery is complete, all except for one thing…Lizzy. The room is quiet and spotless for now, but she’ll be arriving any day and I can’t wait to mess it all up. My hubby and I decided to go with peach for the wall color. We wanted something feminine, but not as predictable as pink. [...]

I’m super nervous about having to breastfeed in public, especially around my immediate family. We’re all very outgoing and we love spending time together, but the precedent for feeding has been formula. It’s inevitable that I’ll have to feed Lizzy in front of the family so I’ve been keeping my eyes peeled for the right [...]
