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 [...]

Parenting can be physically exhausting. A long, hot shower alone is sacred in my household. But then, around 9 months, your precious baby will start to find their inner-attitude.
