Infant Feeding Questions for New Moms

New mommies ask a lot of the same questions when it comes to feeding their newborns. I found this article on Yahoo! and felt it was worth sharing. Like they always say in school, the only dumb question is the one unasked! 
This article answers questions such as "is my baby getting enough food", "can I supplement formula with breastmilk", "when can I feed my baby fast food" and "will my baby get drunk if I have one glass of wine"? 
If you are curious about the answers to any of these commonly asked questions, please click HERE to read the full article!

12 Things To Tell Your Daughter Before She's 13


I found this post today by The36thAvenue and I fell IN LOVE. 
I was fortunate enough to have a mom who took every opportunity to teach me, love me and mold me into the person I am today. As a young teenage girl, I remember going through "changes" that made me confused, moody, disrespectful and an overall pain in the A**! But my parents stood by my side and gave me the tools and reassurance to get through those tough adolescent years. 
These 12 things to tell your daughter before she turned 13 are so perfect. They are exactly what I will strive to tell my daughter not only verbally but by example too. Definitely worth the read!
