This post was sponsored by Nix® Ultra as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central and I received products to facilitate my review. Say the L word and I just can’t. Like, I cannot even consider coping. It’s my worst nightmare. Dramatic much? But really, you guys. Lice, those little buggers, are hands dow on […]
Want sleep advice for your kids? This post ain’t for you! Nope, today is all about the mamas! Because mamas deserve sleep. We neeeeeeed sleep. Sleep makes us happy and sleep makes us more productive. Can I get an amen? I mean, let’s be real I can only use so many filters to take away the […]
I am excited to work with Kelley Blue Book to bring you these great tips. Kelley Blue Book is sponsoring the giveaway kit as a part of the promotion, and I also received a kit as part of the promotion. Dominic and I joke that I married him for his car packing skills and he […]

Jem and I hustled our buns to Walmart this weekend to stock up on back to school supplies. Deal alert right here! Let me tell you, she and I are two peas in a pod when it comes to back to school shopping. We love all the savings – BOGO, extra bonuses, extreme sales, and all that. […]
Oh. My. Goodness. Our very first homeschool year is upon us! 4 weeks away now! I’m excited and nervous and all the while our curriculum for the year has been rolling in despite my worry about what I’m getting in to. It’s going to be a great year though and I can do this. I […]

It’s the first hours of August 1st, a new month, a busy month around here. I technically haven’t closed out July because I haven’t gone to bed yet, but nonetheless, a new month is here. Hello August! There was a time in my life when I dreaded Sunday nights. The beginning of a week, felt so […]
