Bumbleride Indie Twin Stroller – Off Road

bumbleridetoddler

The weather perked up quite a bit this past week, which meant it was time to take the Bumbleride Indie Twin Stroller out for stroll. We've been through the assembly, highlighted the features, long walks through our even surfaced neighborhood, and now it is time to head off road. The perfect place for this was one of our favorite parks. While much of the park is paved, we like to go off the beaten … [Read more...]

Philly Style Steak and Chicken Sandwiches Recipe

phillypeppers

You've seen my cooking, or maybe you haven't, it's all right here in my Cat's Kitchen recipe collection. I'm warning you now, I'm like Paula Dean's long lost sister, or maybe the daughter she never had. I love BUTTER and I'm not afraid to use it. This recipe, my friends, uses more butter than you should probably consume in a week, but I swear it's worth every single bite! Basically I'm taking one simple … [Read more...]

Toddlers and Too Many Toys

messyroom

I've made a decision. Toys are now banned from the birthday and Christmas wish list. Or at least I need to set up an exchange program because clearly, things have gone too far. If I can't walk through my child's bedroom without nearly breaking my neck we've got a problem. You see, having two little ones to care for with no help during the day means I've have to corral one to clean the other. I thought … [Read more...]

Rainy Days and Girls Clothing Penny Sale Shopping Online

pinkraincoat

Spring is here and that means lots of rain and warmer weather.  The rainy days don't always have to mean you can't have fun though. Kaydence got a kick out of trying on her new flowery pink spring raincoat and doing some puddle jumping while I watched from the porch. Usually I'm not the type of mom to let my kids play in the rain but she was just too excited and kept saying "pink coat, pink coat" … [Read more...]
