With a new school year underway for most children, and with your work and/or daily life back to its status quo, you might be thinking that this is perhaps the worst time to think about change.

Before we had kids, our homes were clutter free and everything had its proper place. For many of us, those days are just a distant memory as we step over toys as if navigating a mine field in our living rooms.

Childhood is filled with exploring and trying new things, but that often leaves parents picking up messes. Understanding how kids experience their world can help reduce the frustration of constantly cleaning up spills and clutter.
When a cable network creates an entire show about tiny houses and their inhabitants, it’s kind of a big deal, right?

For many, that means splurging on gifts and a night out on the town with your special someone. However, if you’re a parent with a new baby or little one that is a little bit older, leaving your child at home for a night out may not be something that you’re able or wanting to do. With that being said, just because you may be staying in on February 14th, doesn’t mean that your night has to lack romance. Please see below for a few must-have items for a romantic Valentine’s Day at home.
Between the luxurious dinners, the wine and champagne, and of course dessert – Valentine’s Day is one of the most indulgent days of the year.
