Our afternoon started with this. And ended with this. I can explain. Today, we visited a Pumpkin Patch. Kelsey was having so much fun. She loved looking at all of the bright orange objects. She’s was loving the colors, the people all around and the miscellaneous Halloween decor hanging from the large red and white tent. […]
The Creative Hat: Business Cards for Kids
I thought this concept was creative, so I wanted to share the product with you. The company is called, ”Cards for Your Kids” and it’s a site where you can personalize business-looking cards for your children. Why, you ask? So mom’s can stay in touch with other mom’s and parents they meet at Little Gyms, swim lessons, after school […]

I love her upside down, right side up and flipped all round. I love this sweet angel. .Mommy’s view from the top of the stroller.
The Mom Hat: A Mother’s To-Do List
A mother’s to-do list is always full – but, I don’t have to tell you that. Between daycare, full-time jobs, church, play dates, family parties and social events, we rarely have time to stop and smell the roses. Which is why I made myself a to-do list. It’s my reminder to stop, drop and enjoy the little […]
The Friendship Hat: Happy 1st Birthday, Zachary
Cows, Disney characters, lady bugs – oh my! What a night we just had! We celebrated Captain Hook’s 1st birthday party with a bang.

The Family Hat: Concerts in the Park
I love suburbia for many reasons. It’s family friendly. All my friends live here. And there is a lot to do. In our little bubble, on select weekends, the park around the corner hosts, “Concerts in the Park”. This is a suburban delight that we like to take advantage of. It’s free. It involves music. […]
The Daughter Hat: Boys are Scum, per Dad
I guess you’re never too old to be Daddy’s Little Girl. Tonight, I opened the mail to find a Halloween card from my parents. My dad signed the card in true “daddy” fashion. Here, take a look. . The inside text from my dad reads, “I know you found a pretty good one, but boys […]
The Mommy Hat: Naptime is the New Happy Hour
If I can’t judge a book by its cover, then can I judge it by its title? This book seems right up my ally. It’s all about managing life with a toddler in tow. I love its sister book, Chardonnay is not for Sippy Cups so I’m going to add this book to my Christmas list. . . I don’t have […]
