“Mommy, can we please, please get a dog?”

My 7-year-old turned to me as we watched Benji on Netflix one Saturday night. Upon hearing her sister’s plea, my 4-year-old chimed in and seconded the motion, “Yes, mommy! That would be so cool!” I almost choked on my popcorn.

Every parent wants their kids to grow up to be caring, empathetic, kind human beings. At least I don’t think anyone intentionally sets out to raise assholes.

But as any parent knows, when you’re presently stuck with a toddler throwing a tantrum to end all temper tantrums, it may seem unthinkable how exactly you’re supposed to get from point A to point B. 

We're playing Santa and we have a whole bag of Wild Baby plush pals to give away this holiday season. It doesn't matter if you're on Santa's naughty or nice list. With short, easy steps, get the chance to have your name on our giveaway winners list.

Between kids and snakes, who would you rather sit next to on a plane?

Sure, kids are cute and all, but sitting next to one, especially on a long-haul flight, is the stuff of nightmares. I don’t know how they do it, but they seem to have the innate ability to make any seemingly normal and mundane activity extra--extra noisy, extra exhausting, extra disastrous...

With its tons of surprising benefits for both mom and baby, breastfeeding is definitely amazing—and yet so incredibly hard, too! From the first latch through to weaning, moms go through a lot while in the milk-making gig. And if you’re like me (and like so many other moms before us), then chances are you've been worried about your milk supply at one point.

There’s nothing more fulfilling than starting your day at 5am, comforting toddlers who woke up because of a nightmare, and then spending the rest of the day preparing meals, picking up things off the floor, and making sure the kids don’t get crushed by a big ass shelf before my breadwinner husband comes home. Ahhh heaven...

I surveyed the other moms in our office, asking them what other fun activities I should be introducing to my bub.Some suggested that I keep my kid busy with music lessons, literacy classes, and sports. One of my colleagues, on the other hand, Amy, a mom of five boys and obviously more experienced in this whole parenting gig than I am, shocked me with her answer...

Discipline is all about teaching children how to act appropriately and safely. The goal is to encourage good behavior in the child in order to raise an emotionally mature adult in the future. And I’m telling you, it is not a walk in the park.

Or maybe it is a walk in the park...Jurassic Park.

I’m a list person. Even before becoming a rockstar stay-at-home mom, I’ve always been a fan of lists—grocery lists, to-do lists, bucket lists, you name it! My type A personality craved order and organization, and list-making was a surefire way to help me achieve just that. Barely a week after I added “mom” to my portfolio, I learned that the list I made was no newborn checklist after all—it was a shitlist! Nothing—not even my newborn baby starter kit— prepared me for the soul-crushing, mountain-moving, universe-imploding journey that was to come!
