If you’re new here, this post is a continuation of the feeding schedule I have been doing for my daughter since she was 6 months old and started solids. You can find all my homemade baby food posts right here. © Alexander Oshvintsev / Dollar Photo Club I’m not gonna lie, this month was pretty crappyContinue Reading..
A Plan to Give My Family Better Breakfasts
As someone who grew up eating cereal and milk for breakfast every morning, I still cannot believe that after more than a year I haven’t gone back. I swore off breakfast cereal in December 2013 while I was pregnant with my second daughter. There were several reasons, such as not enough calories and nutrition. Ok,Continue Reading..
Why You Should Consider Having a Secondhand Baby Shower
A baby shower is such a special event to share in the joy of the new baby to arrive. It’s also so necessary for first time parents. If you’ve never been into a baby store, you might be shocked at just how much everything costs and how quickly it all adds up when you areContinue Reading..
Songs We Love: “I Can Sing a Rainbow”
Why are there so many songs about rainbows? If that didn’t get Kermit the Frog singing away in your mind, then you better go listen to that song! Rainbows are such a magical and mysterious event for any child. The first time Sofía saw a rainbow right after the rain cleared out, she was inContinue Reading..
Super Simple Spring Cleaning with Young Children
Last year I got a really bad case of spring cleaning fever. I’m the kind of person that doesn’t get the urge to clean very often, so when I do, I know I better run with it or I won’t do it. At the time, my girls were 19 months and 1 month old. IContinue Reading..
Quick & Easy Oven Fries
As a newlywed, I made a lot of new recipes. Even if I came across a great recipe that my husband and I both liked, it would be months before I decided to make it again. That’s one thing my husband complains about: I don’t make his favorite foods enough. But I’ve learned more recentlyContinue Reading..
Kids and Food: Taste Everything
As a mom to a toddler and a pre-toddler, I know just how difficult food education is from the start. If you aren’t sure what you’re doing, those kids will give you a run for your money, and you’ll have no idea what hit you. Pretty soon they will be ordering you around the kitchen,Continue Reading..
Dinner Prep CAN Be Manageable with Young Children
It’s that dreaded time of day, 4 o’clock, and you’re like, Oh, crap, what am I making for dinner? Just when you remember what you were going to make or when you decide what exactly to throw together, you’re reminded that you have little kids by a THUD! and a really loud WAAAAHHHH! That’s right.Continue Reading..
7 Healthy Foods to Introduce at 12 Months
This post is a continuation of the Solids Feeding Schedules I wrote up until my daughter, Bella, was a year old. Now she is a budding 13 month old and is moving up in the world of food. That doesn’t mean, though, that I give her only table food and let her figure out foodContinue Reading..
Scrumptious Split Pea Soup Recipe
I guess you could say I was a pretty picky eater growing up. I pretty much avoided onions in anything. I still ate salsa, but I only dipped the chips straight in and straight back out again so that none of the chunks of onions (or other veggies) could get on my chip! I’ve almost completelyContinue Reading..
Money Saving Spice Cabinet Solutions
I think I have too many spices. Is 35 too many? Ok, so maybe I actually have 41 due to duplicates. At least I’m no longer in denial. 😉 If you’re like me, and you hoard spices, this post is for you. Do you have a cupboard full of spices that you rarely touch? Do youContinue Reading..
Finger Foods for Babies with Few Teeth
Both of my girls were late teethers. Sofía’s first tooth came in at 10 1/2 months and Bella’s first tooth came in only a bit before that. So when it came down to food they could eat that was not pureed, it became a bit tricky. Or so I thought. Disclosure: This post contains affiliate links. If youContinue Reading..
Songs We Love: “A Bushel and a Peck”
One of my most favorite things about my 2 1/2 year old is that she sings full songs. Sometimes she even changes the lyrics just like her papi does! She sings the alphabet, “You Are My Sunshine”, “B-I-N-G-O”, and “Mary Had a Little Lamb” all without skipping a beat. I LOVE it! One of ourContinue Reading..
Save Moolah on Groceries with Substitutions
Years ago, when I first started cooking, I taught myself how to cook by reading recipes and following them to the T. It’s actually a very effective way to cook if you have a great recipe. Not so much if the recipe is terrible! After much trial and error, I am now to the pointContinue Reading..
