I bet you are getting sick of seeing the word Blog and Her put together right about now, right? Especially if you are not packing and planning for Chicago at this very moment?
Me too.
I decided not to go to BlogHer* for a myriad of reasons this year, not the least of which being the fact [...]
My children’s snacking habits have been less-than-stellar this summer and they have been eating granola bars like they’re going out of style. I realize it could be worse but with the high sugar content, it could be a lot better.
Enter “The Better”: CLIF Kid Organic Twisted Fruit and Organic ABaRs.

A mad-mom entry from two summers ago.
So the sane me is sitting at my kitchen table, keeping an eye on the kids in the backyard while I work at the laptop. I am making over an adoption profile for a couple who has been passed over by expectant parents several times over the last 7 [...]
Our television recently died.
Well, six weeks, four days and 12 hours ago if you’re counting (which is what I thought my husband would do).
I know this would send many people into a panic but let me assure you we still have two other televisions–one in the basement and another tucked away in our bedroom. Both [...]
My family’s Tour de Colorado this summer involves a lot of travel. And a lot of travel means potentially bored children while we drive. In the past, I have packed every toy known to man children but our car ends up looking like a war zone and we quickly run out of activities.
