How Do We Know When To Let Go?

How Do We Know When To Let Go?

I've recently become a mother of three. 

It's been amazing! My kids are wonderful, peaceful and so sweet. They LOVE their little brother and help me take care of him. They love to give him kisses and hugs and they never try to poke him in the eye. My son recently started preschool and getting him out the door is always a dream. He listens when I ask him to get his shoes on, and even helps his sister get herself ready. Preschool drop off is always exciting as he prepares for a new day or learning.

Group Childbirth Classes In Kansas City

This year I am offering a group birth prep class each month on the third Friday night of each month. Group classes are a fun and dynamic way to learn about birth and prepare for your birth experience. The great thing about this class is that it is limited to 4 couples. This means that each class is catered to your needs and your questions will be answered.

When I Gave my Baby A Bottle

When I Gave my Baby A Bottle

I want to start this blog out by saying that I believe that a fed baby is the best kind of baby. I do not care how it's done but it needs to be done. I think the choice to breastfeed and formula feed are difficult decisions that come with their own set backs and triumphs. Motherhood is so hard and I stand by your choices.
