PULL-UPS® Night*Time Glow in the Dark

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of PULL-UPS® Night*Time for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. We are still struggling with potty training so we take brakes.

  • Okay, I seriously teared up reading your post…so very true a simple “you look pretty” can mean so very much, young or old. Growing up, that wasn’t ever said… for elders fear that you’d get a BIG head…I feel like maybe I would’ve had more confidence at a younger age had that not been the case. I tell my daughter all the time that she’s beautiful and looks pretty or picked out a nice outfit. It’s such an important part in any child’s life. Boys even like to hear that they look handsome or their spiky hair is cool. Either way, a positive influence is always the best!

    Thanks for writing this!ReplyCancel

    I’m sorry you went through that. In my family every topic is up for talks, I am very thankful that both my mom and dad always talked with me about everything. To this day they are one of the first people in my life to hear news be it good or bad. My husband and I are raising our kids the same way and we are always talking with them and encouraging them. It is so important to build self-esteem at home.ReplyCancel

  • I feel your pain. Although, I was always told I was beautiful I didn’t always feel that way because I was different looking then the rest of my family. I grew to see what they all saw but it took me a long time.
    I always tell women and girls just how beautiful they are inside and out whether they believe it or not, I do!ReplyCancel

    Alas I stumbled upon a blog of new parents, crafts and latinos!
    We are parents of an 18 month old boy, Connor. Daddy stays home and mommy works. Mommy loves crafting if time ever permits. I currently have about 10 D.I.Y projects, started or half way done!
    Looking forward to hearing more from your hubby on parenting so i can share with my hubby!ReplyCancel

  • Hello
    Thank you for an inspiring article. Some of the parenting tips I have been following are: celebrate achievements, trust and together time. I feel that those three rules will keep the family stress away and enhance the positivity between family members.
    Best Regards

Aries’ First Trip to the Dentist

Aries turned 27 months and its time for her fist visit to the dentist that is in a couple of weeks. Ever since she was little, she started using pacifiers but one day she discovered her hands tasted better. Since Aries was 9 months old, she has never stopped sucking her thumb. I’m always afraid…

  • Aries is so beautiful. I have a little brother who sucks both thumbs, up until now that he’s already in college. And his teeth is not in perfect shape.ReplyCancel

  • I worked for dentists and I’ve heard kids that suck their thumb (but it has to be for a very long time) will need braces later in life; but as far as having problems with cavities and things like that, as long as you are brushing her teeth every day she should be fine. My baby is still only 2 months so i dont know how he’ll be with his thumb but i know that he doesn’t like his paci, he spits it out …:)ReplyCancel
