C-Section Scar Management Made Easier
January 14th, 2008
Until after I had my first c-section, I didn’t really understand the need for c-section scar management. I just thought it was stitched up and eventually healed, leaving a thin red line as evidence of the surgery. However, my doctor placed small strips of tape across the incision, and one of my nurses explained that [...]

Decorate a Dekoposh Purse with Your Little Girl
January 10th, 2008
As the weather has gotten colder, I’ve been looking for little arts and crafts projects to do with my preschool aged daughter. In nicer weather, we’d go outside and play on her swingset, but with the snow, ice, and rain, it’s not possible. When I learned about Dekoposh mini purse kits, I thought it would [...]

As a stuffed animal connoiseur, I’ve been excited to introduce my sons to their own menagerie of animals. Some of our recent favorites are from Aurora. My youngest son has especially [...]

January 6th, 2008
With my first pregnancy, my baby hardly moved. I was told that it was essential that I count kicks to make sure she was okay, but honestly, it was extremely stressful.

A Portable, Fun, Reusable Bag
January 4th, 2008
I’ve recently become more conscious of the amount of plastic shopping bags that my family seems to accumulate over the course of a week. Between trips to the grocery store, Target, and our local CVS, we can easily end up with over 10 bags each and every week. While we now have reusable grocery bags, I [...]
