I'm a mommy to 3 little ducklings- a precious little 3.5 year old girl, a cuddly 2 year old boy and a sleepy newborn. I trust in the Lord and love my husband with all my heart. I'm starting this blog to reach people as a mom of 3 kids 3 and under and also as a mom of a foster to adopt child.

Packing a bag for 3 under 3
Packing for 3 kids under 3
Trying to stay organized is a daily chore for me. It's been a work in progress all my life. But with 3 little ones its a must. I carry the Coach large diaper bag. Its easy to organize and clean.
I made my own diaper wipes case and fill them with Medline dry wipes and put warm water on them when its time to change a diaper for my newborn. Babies are so sensitive even the unscented wipes can burn them.
We also use a great diaper that's safe for sensitive skin Bambo diapers!
I also have stashed away is Aquaphor and mam pacifiers for my newborn. My older kids get snacks like Happy Baby Puffs.
We use Kirklands diapers and wipes for our older children because they are scent free!

Hospital 👶
We are having to enjoy our Sunday in the Emergency room after loosing a lot of blood 12 days postpartum. You get into such a routine that when something like this happens it puts you in a frenzy. We rushed to the hospital had Grammy meet us to take our oldest and now we are just sitting here watching the clock. It's important to get things checked but man I'm tired of sitting here.

Shop Save Your Seat
We had the amazing opportunity to review a package of 4 disposable car seat covers from Save Your Seat.
I have 3 kids 3 and under and Save your seats are a lifesaver for us! My kids love to snack in the car and I'm always vacuuming out gunk out of their car seats. With disposable car seat covers I don't have to worry about having to take apart 3 car seats to wash them anymore.
The covers are stylish with a thin fabric perfect for summer weather. The car seat cover fit over my car seats perfectly. I received the 4 pack Neutral perfect for my 2 boys and girl.
It was easy to put over the car seat and find the perforated lines for the buckle. You pull your straps out and there's Velcro to cover behind them as well. Everything is made with parents in mind.
Please go over to https://www.shopsaveyourseat.com for your new car seat covers.
Curly Clues Club
I had the great pleasure of reviewing a subscription box from Curly Clues Club! We are hooked! Its perfect for our family. A monthly subscription is just $29.99 per month plus shipping.
This box was for the month of March with a theme of Family. It included the book A Chair for my Mother by Vera B. Williams with art supplies and a booklet that explains each craft and suggestions on how to use them to bring the family together and fun ideas on ways to play together.
I first read the booklet before doing the crafts with the kids so I was aware of what we would be doing.
I set the table and explained all the parts to the kids and then proceed to read the book and do the crafts and told them how the crafts were examples of what happened in the book.
Our favorite crafts were the Magic Molding Clay and paints to build a chair like the one out of the book and planting seeds on the sponge.
At the end we talked about ways to spread kindness and our kids helped their mommy by fixing mommys hair.
Please follow the link below and try a box for your family!

38 weeks pregnant
Its an exciting time knowing we are so close to meeting our little boy. But this pregnancy has been very different from our last. I was told every pregnancy is different but now I have lived it out. With our second we were trying to adopt our first at the same time. The pregnancy was smooth with no real problems. We had severe nausea but it went away. This pregnancy I have 2 very active toddlers and have had off and on throwing up the entire pregnancy and now at 38 weeks it back and its getting hard to manage the home this way. Cant wait to meet our sweet heart

Nursing Pillows
Personally nursing pillows are over rated in my opinion I never slowed down enough to enjoy them. We were always on the go. When one was nursing the other was on the floor playing so I had to keep a watchful eye on them and grabbing the pillow after baby started crying wasnt an option. Our first was bottle fed and she had to sit up for GERD so we hardly used it for her bottle feedings either but if I was to choose a brand I would go with boppy. My breast friend was expensive and I never like the back to it.
Ingenuity
Ingenuity
Great products come from great companies and Ingenuity makes awesome products. My babies loved their Ingenuity swing. I was able to hock up my phone and play music and pictures for them to look at on moblie. Ingenuity Inlighten Cradling Swing & Rocker is on the right.
On the left is my daughter in a Bright Starts swing. it wasn't near the quality of Ingenuity and ended up giving it away and kept the Ingenuity swing for our 3rd to use. The Bright Starts swing mobile didn't swing and wasn't near as plush as the more preferred swing on the right.
My Journey
Starting this blog will hopefully help new moms and experienced moms learn about great products and have a special moment as I talk about my experiences.
My life is a Christian stay at home mom to a 3.5 year old girl, 2 year old boy and I'm due to have my 3rd in March 2017 a boy :)
We started our journey when we started fostering our daughter who we have now adopted. I have always been in the loop of what baby products are safe and convenient for parents from being a daycare teacher and private nanny prior to having my own kids.
Taking time to learn what companies and products are the best has been a great experience for me and I hope to help you find what baby products best fits your family.

Summer Infant
Summer Infant
I love Summer Infant products they hold up great and come from a reliable company out of Rhode Island. I personally have used their monitors, bedding and swaddles from Swaddleme.The monitors hold up over time and have great pictures and if you are planning on expanding your family and will have more rooms that need monitored they have extra cameras you can purchase. I would spend so much time just oohing and aahing over them sleeping or playing in their rooms.
