After finishing school, you think the all-nighters are over. But then you become a parent and realize staying up with a screaming child is a little different than staying up all night studying or staying out late at a party.
School is out for the summer and it’s time to hit the pool and enjoy time with friends. Summer is an exciting time for kids and teens, but it can also be a time where temptation for trouble runs higher, like exploring alcohol and drugs.
When I was pregnant with Cohen, I was your typical first time mom. I wanted to buy everything new — from toys to clothes to all of baby’s firsts. I never realized how expensive baby items were until we started shopping.
When my daughter was about three years old, she and my mother, Meme (her name for her grandma), were very close. Even though my mother lives in Arkansas, we spent quite a bit of time with her and my dad.
Life is full of changes and change can be a challenge no matter who you are. Often times, change, good or bad, complicates things even more. Some personalities are just resistant to change while others are pretty adaptable.
When I was young, I was taught to be careful with what I said because my words could come back to haunt me. Today, we have to teach our kids to be mindful of what they type because that can affect their whole future.
When I began thinking about potty training Cohen, I sought advice from anyone and everyone. The most common response I received was “good luck!” At the time, Cohen was two and a half years old and wanted nothing to do with learning how to go potty like a big boy.
Exciting times are coming to our house soon! Both my daughter and my daughter-in-law are having babies this month. Because they both live in Lincoln, I’m planning to take the older children whenever that time comes.
Counting, letters and penmanship — it’s hard to believe that Cohen will be starting preschool this fall. It seems like only yesterday we were bringing him home from the hospital as nervous first-time parents.
Every parent has heard the stories of losing sleep and becoming a zombie for the first year of a child’s life. Well, my first year with Cohen was no different with endless, sleepless nights! From the moment he was born, the only way he would sleep was in someone’s arms.
It’s the New Year and the season of resolutions. Typically, I don’t make New Year’s Resolutions mainly because it’s never seemed like a genuinely personal thing to me. If I see the need for a change in my life, then I prefer to start at that moment rather than waiting for January.
Hello! Let me start out by saying I have a news background, and I am used to sticking to the who, what, where, when and whys of a story. I don’t ever go into details, and rarely do I share my feelings on paper, so this blog is a new experience…but here it goes…
TBH your haircut is totes swag. If you have no idea what that sentence means, don’t beat yourself up — it is just everyday teenage lingo. Every generation has its own quirky language.
Now that I’m a “little older,” I’ve found that the sense of adventure I once had in my youth has returned – somewhat. I’m a little smarter and a little more wary about the consequences of adventure, but the thrill of trying something new is back with a vengeance!
I was outnumbered 4 to 1. The vote was whether or not our family should get a dog, and I was the one dissenting vote. Before you think I am a bad person, let me clarify. I am not anti-dog, anti-pet or anti-animal.
What to feed a toddler? That is a loaded question! In a society that has daily reviews of what our food is really made up of such as artificial dyes, GMO’s, hormone exposure and so on; I have decided to be a very conscious mom about what I’m feeding my daughter.
Without fail, my son Abram will come home from school and the first question I ask is, “How was your day?” He responds, “Good.”
Times are a-changin’! It is to be expected. Our kids are growing up in a different world than we did. Sometimes that is a good thing … sometimes I’m not so sure. Check out this list and see what you think!
Whoever invented texting should be arrested. Maybe that is a bit extreme, but I can guarantee that he or she didn’t have teenagers.
I met my husband Matt after college while we were both living in Kansas City. During our 16 years of marriage, we have moved to Lincoln and been blessed with three children– Paige (13), Abby (12), and Ben (9). I work part-time as a freelance writer and editor, and full-time as a mom.
My name is Adam and I met my beautiful wife Valerie during the first week of our freshman year in college at Northwest Missouri State University, in Maryville, MO. In 2004, (which now seems like a lifetime ago) we were married. We have three children, all boys, under the age of five.
Hi, my name is Tifini. I’m a wife, business owner, and a new mama. I’ve been married to my husband TJ for eight years and last July we grew our family by one with the addition of our daughter Izabella Hope. We live in a small town between Lincoln and Omaha and we’ve been looking forward to the day that we would get to raise our daughter here!
