Fairhaven Health has really impressed me with its superior products for pregnant mommies, nursing mommies, and mommies who are trying to get pregnant. Their prices are very reasonable, and they pretty much have everything you could possibly want for a healthy and comfortable pregnancy. Some of my favorite products are the Tea for Two Pregnancy Tea, the Healthy Mom Happy Baby Prenatal Yoga DVD, and the Pregnancy Plus Prenatal Vitamin and Omega-3 Value Pack. A Pregnant Mommys Thoughts Thanks to Fairhaven Health, I was able to try out their Dream Belly Stretch Mark Cream and their Natural Pregnancy Deodorant two things I consider very important to go natural with in pregnancy. Ive always known that regular anti-perspirants contains toxic ingredients I dont want on my skin (like Aluminum) but until now I hadnt come across a good alternative that actually worked. And believe me, Ive tried a few things! So…
I believe flat irons are the only thing that can save those of us with frizzy hair. I grew up with unruly hair that couldnt decide whether to be straight or wavy, and I remember suffering acutely, feeling that my hair didnt look good but unable to do a thing about it! I hadnt considered putting a flat iron to my hair, but I sincerely wish I had! I think it could have saved me some of my teen grief. When I was 21, right after I got married, I went on a camping trip with a best friend and she introduced me to the magic of the flat iron. I watched her use that iron and go from wavy to straight and shiny in minutes! We were at the coast and her hair looked great in all of the photos we took, even in the extreme wind. I decided…

Emma is going through another new and delightful stage of the Terrible Twos. Nobody told me that there would be stages! We went to a church campout this weekend we didnt camp, just visited during the day. At times it was fun, and at times it was the opposite of fun! I know that any outing with a two-year-old is going to be a little bit tough, at least part of the time. Especially an all-day outing. Missed naps, overstimulation, being tired or hungry, and the weather (in this case it was in the 90s) can make an otherwise fun trip into a stressful time. Especially if mommy is pregnant and tired and hungry, too! 😉 But Emma is going through this new stage in which the word NO, no matter how it is said, is the enemy. Even if I just try to detour her and she wants to…

Creating has become my favorite way to unwind and make quality stuff for my daughter that would quickly make me broke if I purchased it. 😉 Here are some of my recent crafty doings And how I got all this done with a two-year-old around, I dont know! Theres a great tutorial on how to make clips like these at Connected2Christ. Tutorial on how to make flower clips here! A burp cloth with a prefold cloth diaper backing (I cut those strings later, not to worry). Joann Fabrics was having a flannel sale ($2.79 a yard!!!) so I bought up a bunch of half yards to make bibs and burp cloths with. Gotta be ready for that baby due in January! 🙂 I hope theres another sale soon because I want more! I also got chenille with a 40% off coupon. Oh happy me! This lovely fabric and ribbon is…

I miss the cuddly, tiny newborn baby stage, dont you? When Emma was born I marveled at the small size of her fingers and toes so adorable! But they grow up all too fast, and although we love that they grow up theres always a part of a mommy that wishes for a newborn again. Now your memories dont have to be quite so bittersweet because you can preserve that tiny fingerprint forever in a bed of fine silver to wear around your neck! I was thrilled to my fingertips (pun intended 😉 when I saw the photos of the fingerprint pendants on the Little Ella Bug website beautiful! I cant think of a more unique or meaningful gift idea for a new mommy, or for a grandma who lives far away from her new grandbaby and is unable to see her in person. How it Works: Thanks to the…
