If anyone has any suggestions or experiences they’d like to share, I’d love to hear them:
“It’s time.”
“No!”
“Come back here! It’s got to be done before someone, meaning me, gets hurt.” I hear a...

We have just arrived in Sacramento from the UK. My husband and I are doctors, and will be working at UC Davis hospital. I will be working part time. We have a 14 month old daughter, and I am really keen to meet other mums, to do play dates, walks to parks, coffee, etc with, and...

It is inevitable that you will become an underwear sniffer in an effort to do less laundry.
You will never be able to get your kids to actually put their clean and dirty clothes where they belong if they ever catch you doing the sniff test, because...

I've been wanting Wii Fit ever since I've heard of it (about 8mos ago.) Every time I would go to buy one however, they were sold out. WELL (drum roll please), this Sunday we just happened to be at a Game Stop (I tend to find myself there a lot with my boys) AND they had two in stock! YAY!

Lucas and Brodie took great morning naps while I ran for 1 hour 15 minutes on Saturday, and rode my bike 1 hour 30 minutes on Sunday. They pretty much slept right through the entire run and bike ride. I had two well rested kids, and two very tired pair of legs by the end of the...

Some people think having twins brings double the trouble, but I disagree. I think having twins brings double the fun and double the gear.
Now that Lucas and Brodie are 13 months old, and beginning to walk, they have outgrown so much of their gear. We have "double the...

Last Halloween a friend & I decided to meet up for a little play day to get the kids together and get the heck out of our respective dens. We thought, "Hey, the play area over at the Roseville Galleria looks fun. Let's go there."
The outing was not...

If you're looking for a fun day trip - bring a picnic and check out Muir Woods. We hiked for a couple hours ... yes the kids hiked the whole time and did great. Carter got pooped out about 3/4 of the way through and I ended up giving him a piggyback ride. He almost immediately fell asleep on my...

With a boat and a pool, I grew up in the water. My husband had a pool growing up as well ... Last summer marked eight years of us not having a pool - and we were so tired of driving to grandma and grandmpa's houses to swim!
Last summer we finally put in our pool. The payoff has been...

One of the things we did to celebrate my daughters birthday was going to the Rivercats Game. We went the night of her actual birthday.
Let's back up a bit. At school she brought these fabulous cupcakes frosted to look like watermelons and everything was about her that day! At school...

As an English major, I spent a lot of time in college sitting on my butt. I'd have an average of 1,000 pages to read a week and could bet on spending at least 10 hours a week writing. I never thought a moment about how bleeping uncomfortable it is to sit.
I cannot do it.
Sitting is killing...

Question of the day - How do you deal with bullies and how do you discuss it with your kids?
My daughter is in kindergarten this year and it is fabulous. We love her teachers, her school, and her class. My husband and I and Natalie are very happy with our luck!
But, there is a little girl...

Train Town just outside Historic Sonoma Square is a fabulous place to take the kids ... they have a little snack bar and some carnival syle rides like a airplances, small ferris wheel, carousel, dragon mini roller coaster etc.
But the BEST MOST AWESOME part of Train Town is the TRAIN and the...

I often notice that my husband and I seem to have less in common than more in common. He is very organized and relishes lists and schedules. I, on the other hand, am chronically losing things, forgetting about my bill reminders, and piling things up in the office instead of filing them. This...

My 14th wedding anniversary is right around the corner (October 1st), and I decided what I wanted most was to look sexy that day. You know, like I just stepped out of Sex in the City. All beautiful, confident and put together. We all know that when you look sexy and feel sexy then you ARE sexy. I...
