This post is sponsored by Everywhere Agency on behalf of OshKosh B' gosh. However, all thoughts and opinions are my own. Well my baby girl is off to Kindergarten and her brother is headed to 3rd! Their personalities are pretty similar. They both are outgoing and really funny. When your kids head back to school there are a lot of expenses. Their clothing doesn't have to be pricey. I love shopping at OshKosh B'gosh because I know I am getting quality and a great price! Ainsley is really into ...
Theashmorestravels to Galveston
Thank you Hotel Galvez for sponsoring this post. One thing I love about living in Houston is that we are about an hour away from a beach! I hadn’t been to Galveston in probably 5 years. Ainsley and Leighton had never been until a few weeks ago. We had the pleasure of staying at one of the oldest hotels in Galveston, Hotel Galvez. We had the best view of the beach! I had always wanted to stay there and never had the chance until now! So before we checked in Jerod and the kids ...

This post is sponsored by HarperCollins. The day is almost here for my little girl to head to Kindergarten. As a parent I want to make sure she is prepared in every way.

Here are some non-academic ways to prepare them for Kindergarten: delegating age appropriate chores picking up after ...
3 Mom must haves for self care
This is a sponsored post for SheSpeaks. My occupation as a mother is so rewarding but also time consuming. I never really have a moment to stop unless I make myself and I tell my kids no. Sometimes that is necessary for us moms to have some sanity. This summer has been full of non-stop going and playing. It's super important to me that my kids learn to be bored and that it's okay to not have anything to do for 10 minutes. Self-care doesn't mean you're a selfish ...
ADHD: Natural alternatives
The statements made below are 100% from my own experience. I am not a medical Doctor and do not claim to be. Please note: The alternatives used on my son may not work for everyone. This past year was a hard one with our oldest, Oakland. He started really struggling in school, his grades were dropping, he wasn't able to focus in the classroom, he wasn't paying attention, and was constantly fidgeting or out of his seat. We took him to the Doctor after Christmas and it ...
