Above the Knee Shorts for Boys
Calling all boy Moms! Why is it so difficult to find cute shorts for boys that don't fit like an absolute capri? As a toddler, my son was swimming in almost every short and looked so frumpy. So I made it my mission to find cute shorts that hit above the knee, for all occassions. As he recently has sized out of toddler shorts and into the big boy section, I have had to start start my search all over again! I have found many good ones over the years, so here are my favorites for both toddler and big boy sizes!

Easter Books for Kids
You all know by now I love building a book collection for my kids for every holiday! There are so many great Easter books out there for kids of all ages that both celebrate the meaning of the holiday and also the change of seasons welcoming Spring! I have broken down my recommendations into two categories. First, board books that are great for younger kids, many of which include lift-a-flaps and interactive pages. And secondly, story books for kids who are a little older and love to sit through and understand the meaning of a story or perhaps read one themselves!

Favorite Things Gift Guide
Every holiday season I have two favorite things parties I attend with girlfriends and I look forward to them all year! At each party we bring a gift, around $50 value, and do a gift exchange where we pick numbers to choose gifts and when it is our turn to open we can pick an unopened gift or steal one that has already been opened. It is a blast and a fun way to discover new products that also make great gift ideas. I have rounded up all the ideas that were gifted from the two parties I attended. Keep in mind, some of these items were gifted together to get to the $50 value and some were purchased during sales like Black Friday, so off sale may be priced a little higher than $50.
