All About the Bear!

  It's a been while since I've done a post on just Bear and nothing but so here it goes! Weight: Around 25 lbs. Since we switched to a new insurance, I haven't been able to get him to his pedi yet, but soon. Height: A little over 3 feet (3'3 to be exact). Yeah, he's a tall kid. Likes: House music. Thomas the Train. Super Why. Curious George. Dinosaur Train. My homemade

Here are some photos from Bear from the past year. Gosh, it's so crazy these photos were actually taken around this time last year!

I'll share our adventures in co-sleeping in a future blog post coming soon. No, we're not doing it intentionally but it's not too bad.

Golddigger (Gap store)

Biracial Hair Care – Update!

So ever since I've been styling my son's hair, I've been trying different products. I recently picked up the Dark & Lovely Beautiful Blessings Detangler and the Just for Me Hair Nourishing Detangler Milk. Those reviews are coming. I have to say, however, I'm still a huge fan of the Cantu Care for Kids Conditioning Detangler. It's taken a small while for Bear's hair to adapt to the product (which is

The Leash Experiment #toddler #harness #safety

I'm so sorry I've been absent for the past week! I've actually been super busy with my other career so I haven't had much time to Mommy blog here. (Please note, that's probably the only time I will ever make a reference to my pen name. I really like keeping my professional and private life as separate as possible.) Anyhoo, we're going to talk Adventures in Leashville. That already sounds like a

Show You the Way to Go

Sometimes it makes sense and sometimes it doesn't. But either way, you're getting some good music to listen to! Hair. All of that hair. An abundance. Copious. A LOT! While I like to playfully complain about my son's hair, the requests and suggestions to cut his hair are becoming louder. Apparently people still don't

You might be graduating from college. You might be on your wedding day. You might have experienced the birth of your first child. You might have scored you first big contract. You might have lost everything and wonder why you even bothered to begin with. That's the beauty

#FlashbackFriday

Okay, I missed out on yesterday's ThrowbackThursday's post so here's a Flashback Friday: This picture was our first family one with everyone! Pretty sentimental and awesome. We used this as Christmas cards last year.  I love how Bear and I have matching hats.
