Homemade Halloween

Posted by Lindsay Lebresco in October 27th 2008

As a new[er] mom, I long to create my own traditions and memories- I know most parents do. When it comes to Halloween, most of my memories are centered [...]

Posted by Kim Lefko in October 24th 2008  

Baby Journals & Lifestage Charm Bracelets…you have to do it! For all new parents-to-be, if there is any advice I could share it would be to start a baby journal immediately. I’m convinced it’s never too late. We were encouraged to start one while we were pregnant with our first daughter. I started journaling the [...]

Hair today, Gone tomorrow

Posted by Jon DeHart in October 21st 2008  

Remember that first haircut?
Might have been at home with the scissors or clippers, or maybe at one of those great shops that specialize in kids haircuts (I think haircut should be singular there because most kids styles look the same – a bowl cut) At any rate, their focus is on cutting kids hair. As [...]

My Favorite Show–now playing on the video monitor!

Posted by Melissa Parlaman in October 20th 2008  

I used to think that people that used a video baby monitor were the more “paranoid” parents and I definitely do not consider myself paranoid at all. Though I didn’t start out with a video monitor, when I started to use the Graco Digital Video imonitor, I became a believer. (in why people choose to go the [...]

It’s Official. I’m Getting Old.

Posted by Amy Sleep in October 16th 2008  

I never thought it would happen. I never saw it coming even. Then suddenly I realized it. Yikes! I’m a big step closer to being old.
Now before you start spewing clichés like “age is a state of mind”, “you’re only as old as you feel” or even “with age comes wisdom” (although I’m kind [...]

Some of you may or may not be familiar with Twitter. For those of you that are, skip the next little paragraph; for those of you who aren’t, you probably won’t understand this (my husband sure doesn’t) but here’s a quick explanation:
Twitter is a micro-blogging tool that folks can use to simply answer the question [...]

Why Is It?

Posted by Kim Lefko in October 13th 2008  

Seeing life through a child’s eyes can be thrilling for any adult.  As you watch a child and how they interact with the world around them…their actions can be puzzling and quite entertaining.  My husband and I were just laughing at the many things our 2 year old Bear does and sometimes we just don’t understand [...]

My summer “vacation” (a well-timed maternity leave)

Posted by Kristin DeLoach in October 9th 2008  

Now that we’ve officially entered Fall and that I’m back in the office from my 3 month maternity leave, I was reminiscing about that notorious essay it seemed you were assigned every year during your first week back at school, appropriately titled “What I did on my Summer Vacation”. Though, in my case, it’s twenty [...]
