Thanks to Dollar Shave Club for sponsoring this blog post #ad I’ve never bought Mike razors. Even though I do the majority of the shopping (one of those work from home “perks”), he usually picks up his own grooming supplies when he goes to the grocery store on one of his Diet Coke runs. At…

This post is sponsored by Sunsweet. Thank you, Sunsweet! Next month I turn 39, which means I’m a little more than 13 months away from my 40th birthday. Forty! How did that happen? Mentally, I still feel young, but physically? Not so much. Besides the fact that I have to keep up with twelve seven…

This post is sponsored by Sunsweet. Thank you, Sunsweet! My kids watch everything. In this case, I’m not talking about TV or screens, but the world around them. They miss nothing, and they remember evvvverything. For me, this is one of the hardest things about being a parent. I knew that I’d have to teach…

This post is sponsored by Circle Round. Thanks, Circle Round! One of the things I love about Annabel’s teacher is how much she wants her class to enjoy reading.

I’ve partnered with JohnsonsBaby for this post. Thanks, JohnsonsBaby! Annabel loves to read, but it’s only been in the last couple of months that she’s realized reading is for more than just enjoying a good story — it can also unlock all the secrets of the world! For example, Mike and I used to communicate…

I’ve partnered with Baby Dove for this post. Thank you, Baby Dove! I have really sensitive skin, and it took me a really long time to find products that could help me. I tried everything from pricey salon brands to generic supermarket soap before finally finding Dove body wash and lotion. I’ve been using it…
Confidence In Me

This post is sponsored by Suntrust. Thanks, Suntrust! There are plenty of times I don’t feel confident, like when my face decides to pretend it’s a teenager again and grow a giant pimple smack dab in the middle of it. (This happened to me a few years ago at a conference when I was speaking, which…
