Fall is Here in Pennsylvania

I love fall when it's not too chilly, yet the leaves are changing colors and falling. We headed to the park while my husband and oldest son are at cub scout camp for the day. 

Do you enjoy the leaves changing color in fall?

Fun Things to Do in Nice Weather with Your Baby

Having two kids being in school until early June, I'm home with our youngest and now that it's getting to be nice outside he absolutely loves being outside especially going for a walk to the park. 

What do you like doing outdoors with your kids?

The picture below is our yard from the house we lived at 2 years ago, but I needed a good outdoor picture to use for my post, so enjoy the view!

Outdoor Fun with Kids

I was asked in the summer time to do a post about outdoor fun with kids, so here are some things that we like to do with our kids outside, whether it's spring, summer, fall, or snowing.


Summer Break is Finally Here!

Summer break has arrived as of Friday and that means no more school til August! No more 6:40am alarms, even though I am up by then anyway. 

Ingenuity Baby: InStride Easy Up Travel System in Avondale

*Disclaimer - I received the products in this post from Ingenuity Baby in order to facilitate this review for my readers. 

I was emailed about reviewing this new travel system by Ingenuity Baby, known as the InStride Easy Up Travel System.


This is a beautiful stroller / infant car seat set from Ingenuity Baby, known as the InStride Easy Up Travel System, in Avondale. I highly recommend this travel system once it becomes available on their website and in store. This seems like a really good set to have, especially if you like to go for a lot of walks with family or just to stroll around, you can have baby in car seat while hooked into the stroller. Ingenuity Baby has a lot of great baby products, and this is one of them. I absolutely love to be able to work with Ingenuity Baby on reviews.

I am due on June 2, so this will come in really good handy when baby is born. In the summer, our kids love going to the park so I know we will be going for a lot of walks to and from the park with it. I don't know the gender of this baby yet, but the teal color will be good for a boy or girl. I find out in January. The stroller resembles a jogging like stroller which is the first thing that caught my eye when I was asked to review this set. The seat will also click into place, on the stroller to go on walks while baby is younger than being able to sit up in a stroller. I have never used a travel system as to be able to click the seat into place, so I am looking forward to being able to use it as both. 

I will of course need to get an All In One car seat once baby out grows this one, but until then, I will be using this car seat as it goes from 4 - 35 lbs and 32". The base can stay in your vehicle, while you unlatch it from the seat to use it as a carrier. That is what I will be doing, like I did with our two kids as babies. Much easier to do that when going into stores and such, until baby gets too heavy. 

The stroller is able to be used up to 50 lbs. My daughter could even use the stroller, but I won't be doing that as she is 6 lol and hasn't used a stroller since 2 or 3 years old! It just shows how durable and how much weight the stroller will hold. 

#Back to School: My kids first week at school!

Yes, I know it's that time of the year again - SCHOOL! My kids were so excited to start kindergarten and first grade, and couldn't wait to ride the school bus again for our son and first time for our daughter. They started the school year on August 25 in Virginia and we moved to PA on August 29, so they are now at a new school but have all their summer park friends back, and are happy about it! 

Up until August 29, I was working at the daycare they went to, so after school I didn't see them until after my shift was over most of the time. It's nice being able to take them to the bus stop and pick them up to walk them home too. We live right up the street from where they get on the school bus, so it's nice. They changed it a little bit to be a tad bit closer for parents but in the same vicinity. 

Since we moved, the school they were at had to fax their information so they could start as soon as possible here. The teacher for our son, sent home a lot of papers and some of them were ones that she had been doing over the past week with his class, so I helped him work on some of them and turn them in just so we can be sure that he is on the right track with what they are working on. We'll be doing some more of the papers tonight as well and send them back in.

Have your kids gone back to school yet? If so, what grade are they in?
