Every night either Joe or I read a book or two to Jude before bed. Our nightly stories are probably one of the highlights to my day. Jude gets to pick out the books we read and often times he picks the same books over and over. However, it’s always exciting when we get a new book to join our collection.
I’m Not Tired Yet! is a the newest book from beloved author and illustrator Marianne Richmond. It tells the story of a six year old little boy, Ralphie who doesn’t want to go to bed and creatively masters the art of stalling. This is the perfect book for Jude right now since he has just discovered the art of stalling.
Ralphie’s mom handles her son’s delays with great patience and love. It’s a playful book that helps not only children but parents with the difficult task of going to bed. Jude particularly loves the engaging segments where Ralphie and his mom kiss, hug, pinch and poke each other. Jude wants to recreate each moment with me which is a truly lovely experience. The book has also taught me to react lovingly to Jude’s tactics to delay his bed time.
This really is a fun book and has certainly helped us to ease the pain of ending playtime and getting ready for bedtime.

A few weeks ago I wrote about the lack of kid-friendly restaurants out there and how most high chairs are disgusting. I know that kids aren’t the neatest eaters in the world, especially Jude. And when I go out to eat I try to clean up after our messy toddler however I don’t carry around…
“Nack, Nack, Nack!”, cries Jude. The boy is always hungry. As a mom to a growing boy it is important that I always have a snack on hand. When we’re out running errand the last thing you want is a cranky hungry toddler. I also hate being wasteful and polluting our home, so I’m excited…
As a young professional my husband wants to wear clothes that are suitable for work but also stylish and reflective of his personality. So it was nice to find 191 Unlimited and their selection of fashionable shirts for men and boys. Joe picked out the Mausoleum shirt which has dark brown tone stripes with beautifully…
I received free LeapFrog products to host the LeapFrog-sponsored MommyParty. The opinions expressed here are my own. I had the privilege of hosting a LeapReader party at Jude’s school. I shared some of the cool new LeapFrog products with 15 Kindergarteners and we had a blast. LeapFrog sent me their new LeapReader, a complete learn-to-read-and-write-solution,…
I’m a sucker for fried mozzerella but we don’t go out to eat often and I’ve never tried to fry anything at home. But when I learned about Farm Rich’s Cheese Sticks I was in love. To be honest I was a little skeptical at first, how good could frozen cheese sticks be? Well as…
