Rain Boots


Rain boots are a must for our boys. Abram has always had a pair since he was about 2. He loves to play in them even when it's not raining. Well, Abram grew out of the last pair he had over the summer, so he kept reminding us he needed another pair. Eli gets Abram's hand me downs so he always has a pair. We try to make sure they have some before the rain season actually comes because then they are impossible to find!

Carter's Fireman Rain Boots
Yesterday we stopped by Carters and they had these in stock, thankfully because we checked 3 stores before finally finding these. Abram already loves them. 
I thought I should share because these are great quality boots. Abram's first pair ever were Carter's brand and they lasted him a really long time. Currently these are on sale from $44 down to $24 and if you use this coupon in stores or online you can save even more. We ended up paying only $19.00 for the boots! That's a pretty good deal to me for a pair of boots he will most likely use for the next year or 2. We also bought the boys matching christmas pj's for the christmas photo shoot we do every year! I absolutely love them and can not wait to see them in their cute little get up!! I swear Carter's has some of the cutest clothes ever!
Make sure to like their Facebook page to get weekly coupons and read about awesome sales!
Have a wonderful day!!

Johnson's On Sick Days



It has been a hot mess around here lately. Abram started coughing on Wednesday and by Thursday Josiah and I had runny noses and coughs as well. I was so happy Eli was the only one of them who still wasn't sick! Usually he is the first one to start coughing and when he got sick it lasted about a month of hacking and a leaky nose from him. I really believe the probiotics have made his immune system a bit stronger.

Thursday night I got absolutely no sleep. Josiah kept waking up because his nose was plugged up. I had to use the saline drops and the aspirator twice. Part of the night I held him upright on the rocking chair. You can imagine the amount of energy I would have had Friday. When I woke up to take Abram to school I felt like I had just fallen asleep. I was a walking zombie for sure! I ended up taking a nap, courtesy of the hubby!

When Josiah was born a friend of mine gave me a Johnson's Baby gift basket and it came with this awesome product! I use it for the boy's bath when they are stuffed up and it helps them out with all those boogers. I love it and it smells divine, so it's definitely a must have around our house now. 















I have used Johnson's Baby products for all my boys. I have tried other products before, but have not been impressed. My boys have always had sensitive skin and people would tell me to use this or that, however I have never seen a bad reaction from Johnson's. There is a reason they are the #1 trusted product for hospitals. My mother used them on me and they have been around forever! It's affordable and you can find it anywhere. This powder is also a must in our home to help with the chaffing of Josiah's boot wear. It works great clubfoot mammas.

 Next time your little one gets stuffy or a bit under the weather definitely try this product, I'm sure you will love it as much as I do.

On Monday we will be taking Josiah for his 1 month brace check! I can't believe it's already been 1 month of him in his 23/7 boot wear! Time is flying. His feet look great so we are hoping the dr is happy with his progress.
Have a wonderful weekend!

Back To The Patch!





















I'm sorry to bombard you with another pumpkin patch post, but it wouldn't be fair if I told you about Abram's visit and not Eli and Josiah's visit! Haha. Luis and I took them yesterday and Eli had a blast. We were lucky it wasn't as hot of a day as when I went with Abram's class, so we were able to enjoy ourselves a lot more. I was so bummed because we were in such a hurry to go and be back by the time Abram got out of school that I forgot to take a baby carrier for Josiah, so we had to hold him the whole time. I was surprised he did really good and stayed awake the whole time. Josiah is a big napper and if he doesn't nap he gets a bit cranky, but he was talking and laughing with random people and all the animals. 
Eli loves feeding the animals, that's probably his favorite part of going to the farm. It was so funny, after he fed one of the sheep, the sheep "baaa baaa'd" at him and Eli said, "Your welcome!" It was the cutest! Eli is literally the funniest kid I have ever met. He comes up with the most random things and leaves me saying, "Where did you learn that!" Which in turn he tells me, "From myself!" Haha. I just love him.
Being a mommy has changed me so much. I enjoy trips to the pumpkin patch, playing like a kid, seeing kids smile, all the things I had no clue were beautiful before having kids. I watch kid movies more than regular tv- except on Wednesday nights when I watch Law and Order and Chicago Pd! Don't judge me, I love the drama and crime :)
So if you are a regular to my blog, forgive me if I ramble on about my kids and share way too many kid pictures, but my life revolves around all things children. Honestly I really love it. I live to see smiles on those cute little faces. I am the happiest I have ever been and I owe it all to them. They easily drive me crazy most days, but then turn around and give me the biggest hugs and kisses, and just like that calm the crazy. I am very blessed to have children and I am quite aware.
