Baby’s 1st Birthday
April 13, 2011 By
As parents our baby's 1st birthday is one of the moments in your child's life that you will never forget. I'm sure there are very few people who actually remember their 1st birthday, but there is no doubt in my mind that every parent remembers their children's 1st birthday. Just before J's 1st birthday I told R that our birthday tradition should be to take a picture of J waking up on his … [Read more...]

March 31, 2011 By
Welcome to the Fashionably Organized party! Not only is it a blog party but today (the 1st) is my birthday.

Save The Children #Japan #Earthquake – Post With A Purpose
March 21, 2011 By
Japan was hit hard by an earthquake the likes of which we have never seen. I watched live on TV as the Tsunami was dragging buses and cars like matchbox cars across the country. I was riveted and couldn't even imagine what would be going through mind if I was there. We all sit here wondering how we can help, what can we do? It seems a million miles away, but then it's right here facing us in … [Read more...]

March 20, 2011 By
I know it sounds like I'm about to tell you the lessons I learned at Bloggy Boot Camp in San Diego, however, this will not be a post about what the speakers had to say.

Baby’s First Crawl
March 7, 2011 By
A baby's milestones no matter how many children you have the milestones are the most precious moments of your life. In February 2005 my beautiful baby boy 1st crawled. Below you'll see my baby's first crawl. I look at this picture and I start to think of him at that age, and how every precious thing he did was amazing. I admit he wasn't the easiest baby, nor is he my easiest child, but these … [Read more...]
My Curly Haired Girl
February 2, 2011 By
I decided that for Wordless Wednesday I would share a picture I took of A several weeks ago after her nap. I do not have curly hair, but A has little ringlets that are just so stinkin' adorable. Yesterday A walked around the house with one sparkly shoe and one Matchbox Optimus Prime transformer truck, saying car car and shoooooooooeeeeeessss. She definitely likes her pretty things while … [Read more...]

In the beginning it may be hard to think of ways to encourage reading when the attention span of your child is very short. Here are some age appropriate suggestions to begin the reading experience with your … [Read more...]
Vision Board 2011
December 31, 2010 By
As I said earlier this week I am not making resolutions this year. I am making commitments to what will happen in my life. I am taking ownership of myself and the things I can control. I refuse to say things that are vague like "make more money". While I know that is a very admirable statement, I need to really be concrete about the things I want to happen in the coming year. Some … [Read more...]
