Pull Ups has tools to help with potty training
Lately, my mind has been in the toilet. Potty training is a topic that is front and center to any parent of a toddler. Toddler Mojo is just over two and a half and is curious about the potty. For the sake of our potty training lingo, potty mean urination and poop means solid matter. However, all of these terms are hypothetical because Toddler Mojo is just starting the process of potty training. Continue reading Pull Ups has tools to help with potty training
Brave is not your typical ‘princess’ animated movie
Go see a Disney Pixar movie? Sure thing, I don’t even need to read the plot description, it’s bound to be somewhat along the lines of the others. Fabulous animation, great songs and dialogue that will entertain the kids and make parents laugh too. Brave is most of that, but it’s also very different. I didn’t know anything about the movie prior to watching it and the film left me feeling lukewarm. After watching a preview of the film, after I saw the movie, I liked the movie a little bit more.

Giveaway: A Graco Pack ‘n Play
When Toddler Mojo was a newborn he spent some time in a pack ‘n play. We didn’t use it too much because in order to fold it the planets had to be aligned correctly and you had to hold your mouth, just, like that. The old pack ‘n play was a pain in the tuckus to fold. When More Mojo came along we were offered the chance from Graco to review the Pack ‘n Play Playard with Reversible Napper & Changer. Yeah, the official name of it is a mouthful, but it will serve More Mojo until he’s 3 years old and most importantly, it’s incredibly easy to fold. Continue reading Giveaway: A Graco Pack ‘n Play

What The New Kids on the Block can teach you about aging
Aging is fabulous. There is nothing special about 365 days other than the fact that that it’s the number of days in one year. Every 365 days people, presuming they’re still with us, have a birthday. If 730 days made up a year then we’d all live half as long and if 182 days made up a year we’d all live twice as long. Continue reading What The New Kids on the Block can teach you about aging
