Habits of a hot marriage and 36-month-olds: the best in parenting this week
Happy Valentine’s Day. Since today is all about warm & fuzzy, I give to you… no tearjerkers this week, and this poem (you’re welcome):
Roses are red
Violets are blue
When parenting gets crazy,
I head to Bundoo!

3. Thank you, Mom
In case you forget why living in your car driving your kids from one activity to the next, kissing boo-boos and pushing them to be their best is worth it, this commercial for the 2014 Olympics is a heartwarming reminder.

10. AOL and distressed babies
AOL made the headlines in a controversial way when they cut back retirement plans and blamed it on healthcare costs for “distressed babies.” The parent of one of those distressed babies speaks out. Thought-provoking read.

Stephanie- thanks so much for finding and sharing the blog about post-baby sex (#2)!! I feel like a weight has been lifted just reading that. THANK YOU!!
That might be the only “weight lifting” I do this week. 😉 Glad you found it helpful. Dr. Sara sent it to me last week and I thought it was a great post to share with new moms, particularly with Valentine’s Day pressures.
I’m in LOVE with that puppy! That is one of the sweetest things I’ve ever seen!
