"Help My Baby Came Without Instructions"
Seriously! Everything comes with instructions!! Why can’t your baby!?!? The hospital sends you home with this little person that can’t even hold it’s own body fluids. No test, no license they didn’t even care if I knew which end was which!! If hospitals were smart they would send each new parent home with this new book!! “Help! My Baby Came Without Instructions“ written by Blythe Lipman. I believe it’s the next best thing to an instruction manual!! HELP! is not one of those boring “do this”… “do that”…and I’m asleep in 5 minutes ‘how to’ books. This book is whitty and easy to follow. HELP! has real solutions, EASY solutions, to help you get through the rough patches of your new babies life! First thing that stood out for me, are the bullet points at the end of each chapter. Absolutely awesome for quick reference. (Ya’ know… cause new Mom’s don’t usually have a lot of time on their hands!) My…

EASY! Kids Carseat Safety Tip!!
Have you ever wondered what would happen if you were in a car accident and unable to give information about your infant or child?? I drive around with a very important and precious Grandbaby named Alice. Let’s say GOD FORBID, I’m in an accident? What if I was unconscious? What then?? I have a simple, easy tip that is my number one carseat safety tip! Using a label maker (DYMO has one on sale right now for $19.99) print “EMERGENCY INFO IN POUCH ON REAR OF CHILD SEAT” Place a sticker on BOTH sides of the car seat so emergency personnel or law enforcement can easily read it. I printed each child’s full name, age, insurance information, known allergies, doctor’s name, and who to call with all the phone numbers work, cell and home. Place that in the pocket that holds the extra anchor belt that is on all new car seats. It’s directly behind the headrest on the Britax Marathon70 Obviously,…

Eating Healthy!!
I love summertime! there isn’t anything I don’t LOVE about SUMMER!!! (granted I’m not in the middle of the huge heatwave that the central US is having… so… that makes a difference!) I love going to the beach (an awesome perk for living in Southern California!), eating dinner outside on the patio, BBQ’ing, and fresh fruits and vegetables! I just LOVE SUMMER!! Another perk…. summer for me and my family is also about eating healthy!! Which means Saturday mornings at “The Farmers Market” here in Vista, CA there are tons of vendors with locally grown fresh fruits and vegetables. YUM!! There is something about eating healthy that makes me want to exercise too. Although, truthfully I prefer exercising with the Grandkid!! She calls it PLAY time!! Like shadow tag. (you have to tag the shadow not the person. NaNa usually wins… I have a longer shadow!! HA!!) It’s so easy to get kids outside……… show Eli a football and he’ll beat…
