Usually when I feel myself losing my schmidt as a mom, it's because both kids are pushing me to the brink in a very methodical but lightning fast way. Things were going great two, maybe three minutes before and then the...
My two oldest boys are two and half years apart and are truly the best of friends. The kind of friends who disagree much of the time and generally have a legit smack down each day. I shared this with...
Please don’t take this the wrong way, but I don’t like your children. It’s nothing personal. I’m sure they’re really sweet, cute kids; it’s just that the only children I really like are my own. And even that’s true only...
As far as I can tell, neighborhood Facebook pages are all the rage right now. Searching Facebook, there are endless combinations for south metro Denver, where we live - including the one I belong to, which has over 23,000...
A few weeks ago, my 4-year-old daughter was playing upstairs on her own. I could hear her sweet musings to her stuffed animals as she led them in a very convincing classroom lesson; her feet pitter-pat across the floor...
So during naptime today, I sat down to write my monthly blog post (six days late, but who’s counting...). I had about a half of a solid article written, but was having trouble focusing. Why? Because upstairs all I...

Before I became a flight attendant, the only thing I knew about them was that they served drinks and peanuts. My access to seeing one in person was limited to the three or four flights. I thought the job was...
Remember in May? When you happily waved goodbye to your children and trotted off to work, or to the gym, or to Target, where you could peruse the aisles, child-free? And you thought to yourself: “I can’t wait until summer...

Now that I’m a mom, girls night out sounds like (and is) a lot of work... Sure, I'm excited with anticipation during the day. I know there’s something fun to come in the evening. I begin prepping to get things ready...
Men are often impossible to buy for, but we're here to make gift giving for the men in your life a little more fun. They really don't need much. Perhaps you want to get him tickets to a Rockies...
