Activities to do with Your Child During A Global Pandemic
These are the three activities I’ve found for Mackenzie and felt safe doing during the pandemic. I really wanted to get her around other children and since she’s not in daycare I wanted to find some classes where she could spend some time with other children. + Music class was our first class and we started out on Zoom, but when it was nice enough outside, we began outdoor classes and felt safe doing this! Mackenzie loves music so she enjoyed music class and I look forward to starting them again soon! I love that Music Together is a worldwide program so you can look for a program in your…

What Shoes To Get Your New Walker
So you have a new walker…now what? I had so many questions before my daughter started walking and they only continued once she actually began walking. Hopefully this post can answer any questions you have before your child starts walking to help put your mind at ease. First, I wondered when it was appropriate for her to begin walking. She had been cruising along furniture and using a walker since about 8 months old, but was showing no signs of walking. I read multiple places that it’s generally between 12 and 18 months that children start walking. I wasn’t worried that she was only cruising along furniture, but I’d be…

When I feel tired or have a headache, its just so easy to turn on Coco Melon and let her watch it! I want to build a list of activities I can do with her instead of putting on Coco Melon and figured I’d share my ideas with you below: + While I think Mackenzie is too young for a tonies box right now, I do think it’s a great activity to incorporate music & stories into your child’s day without putting on a screen for them!…

My Thoughts on Internet Privacy and Blogging
When I decided to start this blog, one thought I kept having was how putting myself on the internet could be very scary since the internet can be a frightening place. So when I decided to start a mom-blog I had to take into account my daughter and her privacy. She’s only 6 months old and I don’t feel comfortable publicly putting her picture on the web. I never really thought about this before since I have a private account on instagram and only have followers who are family and friends. Having a public instagram account has made me rethink everything I post. Now, when I plan a post with…
