Raising Children to Weather the Storm
I don’t ever go all out to buy designer clothes, especially for Princess. Why break the bank to have her out grow a Christian Dior dress in a few months? Not to mention, I don’t own Dior, Fendi, Prada – Nada. Well, that’s exactly how I felt before stumbling across Borrow Baby Couture. It’s a…
I wasn’t sure what to expect with day 5 of potty training boot camp. Luckily, my hubby and I were both home, which meant tag teaming trips to the bathroom. We stayed on schedule throughout the day. By the afternoon, Princess was telling us when she had to go. She didn’t have an accident…
There was a minor set back with potty training last weekend. Since my hubby had to work over the weekend, I was on potty patrol solo. Day 3 of boot camp was somewhat of a charm (minus the parking lot fiasco). I figured that Day 4 would be a smooth one – at least it started…

FirstAccording to my mom, potty training us back home in Jamaica wasn’t a big deal. She swears most kids were fully trained by two. She loves reminding me of the time I flat-out refused to sit on the chimmy (as we call it). In her thick Jamaican accent she’ll say, “Yuh used to sit pon…
“My birthday is coming on! My birthday is coming on!”Mommy says: “It is?! I had no idea!”Princess says: “Uh-huh.”Mommy says: “Really? When is it?”Princess says: “It’s Friday. My birthday is Friday.” We celebrated her 2nd birthday almost three weeks ago. I have no idea where she’s getting this from. I played along anyway. Weather Anchor…
