As I get older and closer to my forties, I’ve realized my body just cannot function well on less than 7 hours of sleep!

I know that my health really needs to be a number one priority in my life. Actually, this is the first time in my life that I’ve gotten more serious about a routine – I mean, I’m not getting any younger, and my health has not exactly been ideal these days! I think as a mom, I feel guilty carving out time to do things alone and put myself first. For one, I don’t have free time. But, I have to get my priorities in check. We make time for things that are most important to us, like kids. However, if we are not in good health and feeling our best both mentally and physically, then what good are we actually doing for our kids?
I’m a Pinterest fanatic, and lately I’ve been looking for ideas on DIY Christmas crafts that my daughter and I can make together. I had my eye on a cute idea to make ornaments out of candy, but they were missing some vital steps in the process! So I combined some tips from a few different ideas to create a fail-proof formula to make the perfect candy ornaments! And trust me, if I can make them perfect every time, then so can you!
Can you believe it’s already Christmas? I seriously cannot recall where the last few months went! I pretty much have all of my shopping done, which is a record for me! Not in the same boat? Don’t sweat it! I’ve made a simple gift list for all the ladies in your life of some of my favorite things this year – check them out and get them while there’s still time! Many of these items are eligible for Amazon Prime, too!
I don’t know about you, but things have been busy with plans revolving around Christmas already! We’ve been shopping, decorating and planning family events. I get so wrapped up in the holidays that I forget my little man’s birthday is soon after! Yikes! I’m gonna have to get into party planning mode soon! I cannot believe he will be two in January. That little dude is getting big – and heavy! One thing I seriously cannot stand is carrying a huge diaper bag around all the time when I have to tote him, too!
