Kids, Chaos & Caffeine
One month ago, my incredible journey as a surrogate ended when I gave birth to little Zachary. It was the most beautiful night, filled with smiles and laughter as a special little boy was getting ready to enter this world. As many times as I rehearsed it all out in my head, there was no way I could have predicted the miracle that happened that … [Read more...]
I was chosen to be a host for a Keurig VUE House Party and received promotional items. It's no secret that the hubby and I have a love for coffee and caffeine. And over the years as the coffee pot has been improved upon, making it more convenient and faster to have a cup of home brewed coffee, we find ourselves hyperventilating at the thought of … [Read more...]
I’ve been a contributing writer for Simply Being Mommy for over six months now and have really loved being a part of this community. Since pretty much everything we do here revolves around parenting in some form or fashion, I wanted to share about a very momentous occasion for my family. My journey as a mother began almost eighteen years … [Read more...]
Over the past few weeks, I've been spending a lot more time in the kitchen experimenting, creating and tasting. The latter has been my favorite part. I've really enjoyed being back in the kitchen and actually having the energy and desire to cook. I appreciate being approached by brands about working together. To be honest, I'm still in awe … [Read more...]
I love being mommy to my three children. They are my heart, my world, my life. I simply can not imagine life without these three little people. But y'all, sometimes they drive me insane! Between little people attitude and their ever-growing schedule that I must comply with, some days I can feel the stress weighing me down. And that my friends is … [Read more...]
I'm a huge advocate of eating what you love, but I'm also a huge advocate of healthy living. And both can be done when you learn portion control and moderation. What fun would life be if you couldn't enjoy the things you love every now and then? I'm sure you've all heard about ChooseMyPlate.com, which illustrates the five food groups and how … [Read more...]

This post is part of a sponsored series with Burst Media. All thoughts, opinions and experiences are my own. Last year I told you about the reality TV docu-series I'm Having Their Baby that airs on Oxygen. During the show's first season, I was pregnant as a surrogate so I felt like I could relate just a little to the stories and women in the … [Read more...]
The last month or so we've been working diligently to give our youngest son a Disney inspired room makeover that was kid-friendly yet still very much stayed with the simplistic design in our home. As mentioned in an earlier post, this is Peyton's first time deciding on a theme for his room. He had plenty of choices, but he decided on Toy … [Read more...]
Product provided for review. Please see below for full disclosure. I seem to have a special knack for getting caught in the rain. It’s not like I don’t own several umbrellas, either. I keep one in all our vehicles and have folding umbrellas that can fit into my purse or tote bag. There is even one stashed next to the front door. … [Read more...]
The warmer weather is here and for our family that means more time outside cooking on the grill. There is just something so peaceful about time spent on the back porch, food on the grill and the laughter of my children in the background.
