PetSmart’s Puppy Starter Kit (review/giveaway)
Getting a new puppy can be expensive…you have tons you need to buy like a collar, leash, bowls, food, toys, treats, and other miscellaneous items as well as the vet visits to get shots and make sure it’s healthy. Luckily, PetSmart is there to help…not only by being a 1 stop shop for everything you could possibly [...]
Going Green
Going Green with Monkey Mayhem
After making the decision to switch to cloth diapers (we’re working on it!) I got to thinking about other ways I could switch to more environmentally friendly. I had reviewed “green” products in the past and they worked just as well if not better than products with chemicals. We actually had to switch Justin’s detergent to the [...]

Doing “Everything Right” Then Why Is Nothing Working?!?!?!
Been awhile since I updated about Jeffery and his behavior issues. By suggestion of his psychiatrist I have started taking a parenting class, we have gotten Jeffery an extra counselor in school, and I’ve had many many many talks with his teacher and counselor and we’re all so lost. We’re all tired. None of us know which way [...]
Cloth Diapering Moms (and Dads)…Talk To Me
For the past 7 years straight I have been doing nothing but buying diapers. No sooner than one is about to be out of diapers, another one comes along. Right now Jaxon is about to be potty trained and I’m looking at at least 2 more years (more than likely 3) of diapers for Justin. [...]

Sensory Integration Disorder
Yep….that’s something that Jeffery has finally been diagnosed with. I knew from early on he had some sensory issues, but didn’t connect the issue with his behavior issues. His psychiatrist suggested having him evaluated to see if they found out anything we didn’t know and anything that might help. It did! We were told he is [...]
I’m Thankful
I know Thanksgiving was the other week, but I’m thankful everyday. A lot has happened the past few weeks which is why my blog has been kind of slow with content. Meetings, family, and just enjoying everything around me. First let’s start with the meetings, over the past few months I’ve had to answer a [...]
Products I’ve Reviewed
My Family Includes Our Dog #ILoveMyK9 #CBias
On any given day, you will usually find Scrappy at my feet or my hip if possible. I don’t sleep without him on the bed with me and if Jeff isn’t in bed, he’s usually right up on Jeff’s pillows beside me (Shh, don’t tell Jeff). He barks when someone knocks at the door or [...]
