Five Essential Parental Preparation Tips Before Your Second Child Arrives!
Mothers expecting their second child might have a bit of a chip on their shoulder. That is, you’ve already been through childbirth and the craziness of your first baby: how difficult could the second one be? But then your mind is flooded with reminders of those sleepless nights, huge messes and times when you were ready to rip your hair out. Relax. While you can’t remove every single stress that comes with the territory of having a second child, a bit of planning goes a long way toward making life so much easier on yourself. Let’s talk about five of the most important prepping tips for your latest bundle of joy, some of which are easy to overlook. Shop Smarter Doubling the kids in your house does not necessarily mean double the trouble when it comes to your budget. For starters, think about what you already have from your first little one that you can reuse (think: crib, clothing, toys, etc). Rather than rushing to the store, make a list of items that you don’t need to keep costs down. Whether you’re shopping for cleaning supplies, diapers or essentials for your new baby’s bedroom, don’t assume that you need to…
There Are MORE!!! The iTOMTE Gnome’s Are Multiplying!!
My iTOMTE Gnome collection has grown again!! I can’t even tell you how cute these little guys are in real life. The beards! The hats! The NOSES!! In October, I showed you my newest additions: plant stake, key chain, and Christmas Tree decoration. Now I’ve added a couple new additions. I have to admit the iTomte with metal legs quickly moved up to my favorite. He’s so stinkin’ CUTE!! The standing gnome has a spring inside so he kinda just dances when touched. This guy is 17″ tall from the bottom of his little metal feet to the top of his ridiculously tall hat! These gnomes are individually handmade with lots of love! He stands with round big belly, supported by his long steel legs. He has a spring device in the body, once touched he dances. The light brown belly and white beard are made of fiber fur. His hat are crafted from red soft plush felt and a wire in his ridiculously tall hat in order to pose it for maximum whimsy! The 12″ Table Decoration is cute as well, although I have to admit I do miss the little cloth button nose. This particular gnome has the same…
Happy Sunday From Sandpoint Idaho!
I have made an executive decision. Instead of hunting for a funny, lazy, Sunday GIF I am going to start posting pictures that The Husband sends from the new house in Sandpoint, Idaho. Yup, yup that sounds like a great idea. Seriously, this Colorado native, turned 37 year Sunny California loving girl, is gonna have a LOT of adjusting to do!! But, really how cool is the fog?? Yup, The ghost of PBnWhine has once again removed all the pictures. Let’s Ask Google To Swing Around Here Again Every so often I grab a giant digital dust rag and wander through PeanutButterAndWhine.com, polishing up my older posts like antique teacups at a yard sale. Updating old content isn’t just housekeeping, it’s pure SEO sparkle. Fresh keywords, tighter titles, faster images, better links. All the little tweaks that whisper sweet nothings to Google and say, “Hey… I’m still relevant.” Search engines love fresh bread, not stale crumbs. So I’m rewriting, refreshing, and straightening the shelves so you can find recipes, reviews, crafts, and giveaways faster than a squirrel spotting peanuts. 🐿️ While you’re visiting, check the sidebar for the current giveaway at👉 https://peanutbutterandwhine.com And since we’re sharing goodies… have you tried…
What is the difference between sediment filters and drinking water filters?
Water is one of the most abundant substances on our planet, which is just as well considering it is essential for all forms of life. The average adult is approximately 60% water! You may not consider the importance of water, after all, you turn on a tap and there it is. You assume it is clean and safe to drink. In fact, it has been through a chemical process to make sure that it is safe; you may even have a water filter in your house to soften hard water or reduce the salt in soft water. This is actually very common as 80% of households in the US have hard water. If you are in need of a whole house water filter then you should first understand the difference between sediment filters and drinking water filters: The Sediment Filter Water has lots of particles in it that are picked up as it travels through the rocks and soil before reaching the treatment works. If you scoop a handful of water from a stream you will probably see some of these particles. However, many of them are too small to be seen by the human eye. This is what sediment…
