Learning with Loog ~ A Review

Thank you goes to Loog for sending me product in exchange for review purposes. All opinions are my own.
My son has been pretty interested in music from a very young age. I’m not sure if his love for music is due to his dad always playing music around him or if it’s just passed on through his genetics. We tried a violin class when he was younger and while he really enjoyed it we didn’t know anything about violin which made practicing with him more difficult.

DIY Homemade Baby Wipe Recipe

From the time I had my first baby 8 years ago I was always making sure that the product I used on him were natural. I started with Pampers sensitive brand and when I found something more natural I kept switching. For the first year I used water wipes with my youngest. On Amazon I could get Water Wipes for about $.22 per wipe, now that doesn't sound like a lot but when you add them up it got to be pretty pricey per month specially with three kiddos using them for number two visits!
I had a Read more [...]

Krankz ~ A Bluetooth Headphone Review

Thank you to Krankz for providing me with product in exchange for review purposes. All opinions are my own.
My husband spends a lot of time interacting with music, from making it to listening to it. As most know high quality microphones are needed to record music but it’s just as important to be able to really hear and feel the beats you’re laying down while recording as well.
In the past when making music my husband used to just use the computers speakers, and while they will do the Read more [...]

I always thought I had thinner hair. It wasn’t until recently when I said that to my hair stylist that she said I actually had finer hair but a lot of it. Which doesn’t really make it thin hair. Either way I have a few tricks up my sleeve that I use to make my hair look more full and thick!
Tip 1

4 tips for starting your own business

So maybe some of you know, maybe some don’t but I recently became a business owner! It sounds so weird even saying it, well typing it here. Starting a business is something I never imagined myself doing and honestly just because it was something I’d never done before. I was afraid to do something wrong the whole time and still am! But I realized having supportive friends who had already owned their own business has been crucial and I thought not everyone has this so I would share 4 tips to starting Read more [...]

Minimalism with kids

My husband and I try to practice as much minimalism as possible. We are nowhere near perfection and we still have more things than we’d like to, but like everything else in life minimalism is a journey for us. We feel it’s really important to teach our kids a more minimalist lifestyle at a young age and keep it in our conversation often especially around holidays and birthdays. So how do we do that?
Every year before each major gift holiday, whether that’s a birthday or Christmas we go through Read more [...]
