Things I’ve Learned The Past Two Years Navigating Child Eczema
The last two and a half years have been an exhausting journey, navigating the best ways to help my son with his extreme eczema. To give some backstory, his eczema began right after his first birthday. Prior to this, he had no signs of eczema. Shortly after his first birthday, he had the worst eczema outbreak to date. His entire body was covered to the point that the first allergist we met couldn’t perform the allergy test because his skin was too flared. We were prescribed a topical and oral steroid since it was so extreme, to help the flare-up so we could perform testing. The oral steroid was a…

Quick & Easy Meals with Minute Rice!
One thing that really helped me when our family grew was getting our family on a meal schedule and simplifying our meals. We try to stick to the basics that we know everyone will love each week & the kids really enjoy knowing what’s coming on the schedule. We throw in a few different recipes here and there but for the most part we stick to the same schedule and it’s really helped make life easier & the kids actually eat dinner! Rice is a staple for a lot of our meals & I am loving these Minute Rice Cups! They are so easy to pair with your favorite ingredients…

Staycation with Wyndham I-Drive & ICON Park in Orlando!
This past month we were invited to stay at the Wyndham I-Drive location in Orlando, FL. Traveling with 3 kids takes a lot of planning but the team at Wyndham went over and beyond to make sure our stay was amazing (and comfortable)! The first thing I noticed upon arrival was that the location of the resort was amazing. We were so close to a ton of Orlando attractions and even walking distance to lots of restaurants and shops. When we checked into the hotel we were very impressed with the beautiful lobby and how quickly the check in process was. We decided to explore a little after check in…

Lush Decor Toddler Room Update
Over the past couple of months we have been on the hunt for new bedding for Haven’s room. She really wanted polk a dot bedding to match the garland decor in her room so we started our search. I was surprised to find that most of the toddler bedding we looked at was not very comfortable and it also wasn’t made with the best materials. We wanted to find something that wouldn’t need to be replaced in a few months so we did some research and came across Lush Decor. We were very impressed with the selection of toddler and kid bedding they had and their commitment to quality. Their…

As a family, we love to find new book series that we can dive into with the kids.

Fiona is a famous hippo from the Cincinnati Zoo that was born prematurely at only 29 pounds. Her inspiring story of spunk and determination to become a happy & healthy hippo is the inspiration for this book series. Each book captures the best storylines that…

Morning’s with Indian River Select
Mornings with Indian River Select There’s nothing better in the morning than a fresh glass of OJ! Indian River Select has been our family favorite for a long time. Being a born and raised Floridian, I’m picky about my OJ, and Indian River checks all the boxes for our family. Their OJ is 100% premium juice that has no added sugar, additives, or preservatives. It also has a smooth fresh taste that our toddler loves! When Indian River Select was founded their goal was to create a better orange juice for families that tastes amazing. What started out as a small boutique-style orange juice brand now has an amazing…

Reading fun with Fiona Books
Reading is definitely a top priority in our home and we love to find new books to add to our collection. I have learned that successful reading with our toddler is all about making it fun and finding books that interest her. The Fiona books series has quickly become a new favorite with my 3-year-old daughter Haven. We love that all of the books have beautiful messages tied into them around determination, never giving up (Haven’s favorite slogan is Girls Never Give Up), helping friends to feel better, laughing, kindness, and accepting each other differences. Each book is written in a way that keeps toddlers and kids engaged in a…
