September was over before we even knew it began. Coming into the end of this pregnancy with baby #5 I’m certainly glad for that!

Potty Training Tips
Let me start this by saying I am by no means an expert. I’m not a pediatrician or a urologist and I do not have a degree in child psychology. What I am is a mother who has 5 children age 7 and under, of both genders, that have all been potty trained by ageContinue reading “Potty Training Tips”
Disney World Late August 2020
Hurricane Laura made her grand appearance in our area one afternoon in late August. Our electricity is quite finicky at our house, it goes out every time it even thinks about bad weather.
