When I picked Ashley up from school the other day, I immediately stopped in my tracks, and did a double take. This couldn't be! Was she wearing one of the forbidden items?! She was! I had a mini panic attack. She was wearing… Crocs! Yes, Crocs. Crocs are on my list of things that my [...]

Some days I want to jump into my preschoolers' world of carefree play, fantasy and dress-up. How great would it be to play all day, and then be told to take a nap?!

These are some of the toys that are getting the most play these days with my almost 3-year-old and my 4 1/2-year-old. Barbie and princesses clearly rule the house.
