The very first Valentine's Day after having a baby should be celebrated! There's a new love that your heart is experiencing toward your partner, and it is worth doting over.

You are about to embark on your greatest adventure: Fatherhood. Even if the new role suits you perfectly - without anxiety, there may be a few things you overlook... or just don't know about. When your peanut arrives, makes sure you do these 10 things to help your significant other out. (And to bond with your baby, of course.) 

The true meaning of Valentine's Day is to celebrate love, friendship, and family in any way you choose. This can mean an intimate date night out, or a family game night in.  

As your countdown to holding your baby ticks by, don't let the days pass without completing these 22 things.

Pregnancy cravings (and aversions) are real.  What else is real is the fact that our society has deemed pregnancy a culturally accepted and sanctioned period of time in which women are even encouraged to give in to every single craving!

We live in a society full of instant gratification, big technology, and heck of a lot of people who enjoy free handouts. This is the perfect time of year to talk with our kids about making changes and working toward bettering the world.

HO! HO! HO! The cheer is contagious. Everyone is happy and kind this time of year.  Don't let the season fly by without making lasting memories with those you love the most.  It's never too early or too late to start family traditions.

I am a normal mom.  I lose my cool and yell more than I want to – I expect things from my children that (while I may feel should be accomplished) never seem to occur.  I love my babies and snuggle them constantly.  I read bedtime stories, cook twelve different meals a day, and throw random dance parties.  I also see just how unique each of my four children is – deep in their core of what makes them, THEM.  I’m sure you can relate. Here’s where I’m not “normal” (I hate that word, by the way) – we are a homeschooling family.  Please don’t stop reading.  We are not ultra-conservative, nor are we schooling for religious reasons (nothing wrong with that though!).  We are you – BBQ’ing and enjoying wine while our kids destroy our home. We chose to homeschool because it works for us. It’s really that simple.

It is time to tell everyone about all the crap that comes with the postpartum season of motherhood.
