Five Finishing Touches For Your Living Room {Guest Post}

Picture Source

You may have just moved into a new home and decorated your living room to suit your tastes. You may have bought new sofas, chairs and storage to meet all of the practicalities that are required. But what if this isn’t enough? All of these things are needed to make your living room functional, but don’t necessarily really help it to feel like ‘home’. This is because it’s not until the finishing touches are added that this homeliness really becomes {Read More}

Staying Organized With a Baby

Picture Source

It wasn’t until I had my baby that I really knew I had to get my life organized. It is so easy to fly by the seat of your pants when you are childless and free, but when your baby is depending on you to remember what time they ate, how their poop is looking that day, etc… it starts becoming more and more important to have your stuff together! In those very early days of being a mom, life {Read More}

To Eat or Not To Eat

Hey there all my fellow Raising-R E A G A N fans! I am talking about children who are picky eaters.  I happen to have two children that are completely different from one another.  My son will choose the veggies off the plate over the meat and my daughter will choose meat over everything else.  My son isn’t too picky.  His thing right now is putting and dipping everything in ketchup.  This includes ketchup sandwiches…he is in ketchup land right {Read More}

Maui’s Very Own Key Lime Pie Souvenir {Guest Post}

Raising Reagan: Key Lime Pie {Guest Post}

I will always remember and treasure the vacation to Maui I shared with my husband. Snorkeling at Kapalua Bay proved an awesome adventure. Swimming in less than 10 feet of water was comparable to entering an aquarium. What an amazing sight to behold with the number of colorful tropical fish swimming around without a care in the world. The Kapalua Resort my husband and I stayed at had a number of hiking trails that led to the peaks of the {Read More}

Cool Aunts {Guest Post}

Raising Reagan: Cool Aunts {Guest Post}

Being a full time mom is a never ending job, you can’t just clock out and not-be-a-mom. I know you wouldn’t want to, either! Those hours spent every day with your child are priceless, even the bad moments (which aren’t really that bad!) make you appreciate the good ones. However, there’s a whole generation of aunts (cool aunts?) that are willing to care for your kid and give you a break, once in a while. The term –aunt- will no longer be associated with a {Read More}

Hi Raising Reagan readers!  I’m so excited that Lanaya is allowing me to take over her blog and share my experience with potty training my son.   Just to clarify my story I have a 3 year old son that we nicknamed Bear.  I tend to call him Little Bear and that is how he is known on my blog.  Didn’t want you to get confused and think I was potty training a real bear. I started potty training Little Bear when {Read More}

The Picky Snacker

dara

When my son Zachary was 2, I was eating a chocolate bar. Zachary asked me what I was eating and I answered “nothing.” His reply was “I want nothing too!” Not much has changed since then and 5-year-old Zachary is the biggest snacker I know. From the time he gets home from school until dinner time he is begging for snacks. The problem is that he is so picky he will never choose healthy snacks. This is how picky he {Read More}
