Jessica Simpson’s Daughter In The Spotlight – For What Exactly?

lilsugar

Every year my family dresses up as a unit for Halloween – we pick a theme and follow it out as best as we can to become the characters realistically, or as realistic as possible. From face makeup, to costumes, whatever it takes to become that person for the night – even if it means using a lil hair paint to do the trick. Seems Jessica Simpson is now the target of social bashing for doing just that, for tinting her daughters hair for the purpose of portraying Belle in…

Curious Children – The Benefits Of Technology {Contest Too}

lilsugar

If your children are anything like mine, they ask over a million (sometimes more) questions a day and on average expect some sort of realistic explanation to things you have never heard of. Am I right? Google has changed my life, or so to say… Seems we can never get through a show or a simple task without me turning to my trusted friend for advice. As you may already know, Google DOES have all the answers! From simple dinner ideas, to Halloween costumes to those tired and tested questions…

Back To School With Staples!

lilsugar

A few more days and the kids are back to school (already) and it seems like there is never enough time to finish their lengthy list of demands before it happens. Since I am a one stop shop kinda girl, I always try to find the best bang for my buck while lessening the travel time because to be quite frank, my kids suck in the car! Staples is just that- a place to full fill all of your back to school needs, product lists, and still leave time for…

Prepping For Back To School With A Permanent Impact

lilsugar

    Everyone that knows me also knows that I hate back to school, I miss my kids way too much to get excited about the whole thing and my anxiety almost always takes over this time of year. I like to find ways to communicate with them and remind my boys that I am with them even when I am not because the truth is, it makes a mama feel better – selfish I know but it gets me through those long school days. You name it, I have…

Celebrity Mom Moments We Can All Relate To!

This mother’s day all I want is to relate to those beautiful people walking the malls, strolling with their kids to the park and those perfect women that we see in the spotlight. I’ve always imagined that their lives would be somewhat just as annoying, chaotic and busy as mine so I searched the internet to find these relate-able moments from some really awesome and real life moments – brought to you by the celebs themselves!  ——————————————————————————————– “You know how once you have kids you never ever pee by yourself again?…

Bridging The Gap Between Teens and Parents

lilsugar

Seems that having a 10 year old has certainly made me think about the future ahead when it comes to communication – especially lately. I’ve been lucky so far to have a child who is super open and honest about the ups and downs he’s been experiencing in his little life circle thus far. What happens in a few years when that circle grows and his own thoughts on life evolve further? Will he be as honest as he has always been,  am I being naive to think that he’s…

Neutralizing Gender Equality In The Toy World – When Will Barbie Get It?

lilsugar

I was compelled to reason with a mother’s emotional post recently and I think that it should be shared with good reason to urge toy companies to rethink the way they market toys today. Scrolling though mommy groups on Facebook, I often do not stop and read the lengthy ones, but this one was different because quite simply it was written almost as if I myself had written it. The authors words and heart felt emotion is something I have related to for the last 10 years of my first…
