I love Thanksgiving, it’s my second favorite holiday of the year. Every year I start getting excited as we approach that last November Thursday… looking for recipes, decorations, planning everything in my head! But there’s one thing I never change, and that is my roasted turkey recipe. I vary the stuffing, but don’t dare to …

Ever seen one of those green stroller parking signs at the mall or other large parking lots? I usually notice on my walk down to our car, which usually gets parked pretty far from the mall entrance. That’s when I wish I had one of those permits to park up close; a big help for …

Johnson & Johnson has always been a trusted brand for babies, I least that’s how I thought of it. I still can’t believe they were using two harmful chemicals in some of their shampoos. One, dioxane, a known carcinogen; the second, quaternium-15, which releases formaldehyde. I found from another source that formaldehyde can cause eye, …

This past weekend was the baby shower for Gabriella (name of my soon to come baby girl). My Mom planned it and my cousin Elisa organized the games. We had a great time with all the girls, chit chatting, playing around, eating… Wish we could get together like that more often. I’m so glad everyone …

I shouldn’t have exclaimed how happy I was about Angelica waking up around 8 a.m. every morning. Suddenly we are back to the 6:50 a.m. schedule. Just like that, totally out of the blue, the little peanut decided that she needed an extra playing hour in the mornings. At least that’s what I imagine goes …

It’s funny how you are trying to solve a problem in life and out of no where an unexpected solution pops up. For the last two weeks I’ve been trying to figure out what to do in regards to Angelica’s sleeping arrangements, since she’s such a restless sleeper during the night that she’s bumping herself …

Recently I’ve been struggling with Angelica and her new food preferences. The days of purees are surely becoming the past, anything that looks too creamy is instantly pushed away. Purees were great, my Mom would load them with nutritious stuff, I wouldn’t have to worry about her not getting everything she needed. But now, I …
