Seattle: get festive at Wild Waves Holiday With Lights
Wild Waves and Enchanted Village was such a huge part of my childhood, and I’m embarrassed to admit my kids have never been to either.

Strictly Briks fosters creativity while taking your brick creations to new heights
My kids love LEGOs. They could play LEGO for hours and hours each day, building their own custom homes, businesses, cars, and even mini figures.

Build, learn, and play with Modarri cars
My son has been obsessed with cars since he first learned to grasp. He’s gone through stages with every scale toy or model car at this point, but there are certain cars that stand the test of time and get played with year after year. On that short list are Modarri cars, the DIY toy … Read more
Compact stroller showdown: the Baby Jogger City Mini vs the phil&teds smart stroller
We’re finally ready to transition back to a single stroller after years of pushing a huge double stroller around, and I cannot even explain how excited that makes me.

Secret to a better night’s sleep: The Floating Comfort Pillow by Mediflow
Before I was a parent, I didn’t know how much difference a good night’s sleep really makes. Even though my kids {for the most part} sleep through the night, I have a horrible habit of staying up too late and then waking up too early. To add to the problem, I’ve also found that I … Read more
