A month ago we drastically changed our diets. We’re not “on a diet,” we’re changing our lifestyle habits. I threw away most junk food and sugary snacks. We’re eating as “clean” and whole as we can with lots of meats and proteins. My grocery shopping has completely changed, being mostly produce and meats, and it has also become more expensive. When I can find sales or coupons, it helps a lot!
That’s why I am loving the new MyMixx savings app I recently found for Jewel Osco stores. Our closest one is unfortunately

These colder months can get rough for a mom of a preschooler and a toddler. When we can’t just run outside or play at the park, we start to go a little stir crazy! We like to (NEED to) fill our days with fun activities and my favorites are the ones that keep the kids entertained while they’re learning. Again, I headed back to the Animal Jam Academy to get some great ideas! I partnered with them to bring you these totally cool science experiments for kids… perfect for the colder months!

It’s that time again! Did you attend MommyCon last year? If you didn’t, I’m sure you at least heard about it. In my birth and blog work, I get asked all the time, “did you get to go to MommyCon?!” Last year I unfortunately missed it because it was our daughter’s 2nd birthday! This year, however, I’M GOING! And I CAN’T WAIT!
MommyCon Chicago 2015 is on February 21st, with a full day of awesomeness. There are educational sessions for all areas of natural parenting: cloth diapers, babywearing, fitness, breastfeeding, and

Steve and I are working hard to improve our diet. We’re meal planning, removing a lot of added sugar and dairy, and clean eating as much as we can. It’s amazing how much it has improved our lives—we feel better and have more energy. Mornings can be hard as we rush to get out the door so I created this collection in partnership with foodie.com for 15 clean eating breakfast smoothies! A great way to get your protein, fruits, and veggies.

I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Scrubbing Bubbles®. I received product samples and a promotional item to thank me for participating.
I hate cleaning. My parents always called it “doing chores” when I was little and it was something to be dreaded. I try to stay away from the word “chore.” That makes it sound like something you HAVE to do, like a punishment. But cleaning is FUN, right?!?! Haha, well…. maybe not…. but it doesn’t have to be a CHORE. Put

We don’t have cable or anything at our house. My husband and I actually got rid of it in college years ago (I thought I was going to die!), but we’ve never looked back. We survive with streaming services, like Feeln. Haven’t heard of it? Well, I know you’ve heard of Netflix… and this is the same idea, but is specifically for families. I partnered with them to share how you can try it free for a week or read below on how to get one year half off.
It’s really super easy
