I’ll confess. My kids bring home toys once in awhile without paying for them.
Perhaps I should explain.
There is a hidden gem in the northwest corner of Denver proper. In the lower level (OK, basement) of the Smiley branch of the Denver Public Library system at certain times of the week, your kids can enjoy….Other People’s [...]
Let’s face it: being a “mommy blogger” does not just entail writing about the kids. Sometimes we like to break out and have a Moms Gone Wild Mama’s Night Out. Because great eats + live music – the offspring = good times.
Many of Colorado’s most prominent mommy bloggers gathered at the D Note in Arvada [...]

When I nurse in public, I am nervous.
Is someone going to glare at me? Will they abruptly steer their children in the opposite direction once it’s clear the baby hidden under the green blanket isn’t simply asleep? What if a security guard, store manager, or Citizen Busybody leaps into action, operating under the authority [...]
Why do you REALLY want to know what color mascara I wore in high school?
My employer has finally gotten with the times and decided that, in order to secure the very important and confidential information on our intranet, I need to answer five personal, random questions lest I forget my coveted password. There are several [...]
While there were definitely some parenting philosophies on which my husband Kyle and I had to compromise, one area where we were in agreement from the start is physical punishment.
We don’t spank. We think it’s illogical to tell children not to use physical force against one another, and then use it ourselves against them.

I never aspired to be a stay-at-home mom.
Reflecting back upon it, I never aspired to do much of anything. It was not that I was lacking in ambition. I was that annoying overachiever in athletics and academics but I just didn’t know what I wanted to do when I “grew up.” I didn’t declare Broadcast [...]
