Quality Encapsulations Omega 3 Fish Oil Supplements Review 26 Jun 2015 1:02 PM (10 years ago)

Quality Encapsulations Omega 3 Fish Oil Review     We all know the wonderful benefits of Omega-3 fatty acids, DHA and EPA, but often times we aren't consuming enough of these beneficial ingredients with our daily intake of food. And that's where supplements come in. I was given the opportunity to review a fish oil supplement 3 weeks ago in exchange for my honest and unbiased

Leven Rose Rosehip Oil Review 25 Jun 2015 1:03 PM (10 years ago)

  A few weeks ago, I received this product at a discount for my honest and unbiased feedback. To be honest, I'd never heard of this type of product before. But since I enjoy learning about natural products and appreciate even more getting to review them, I was excited to try Leven Rose's Rosehip Oil on my own skin. Let's face it, I'm not getting any younger. The signs of my aging are

Elleda's Organic Vitamin C 20% Serum Review 8 May 2015 4:45 AM (10 years ago)

I was given the opportunity to review another skincare product this past month. It's Elleda's Organic Vitamin C 20% Serum, containing 72% organic ingredients and 98% natural. This type of skincare is in my interest because it's more on the natural side, promoting ingredients the earth provides to help repair our skin from harsh environmental factors instead of using products containing

Skleer Review and Giveaway 29 Apr 2015 2:14 PM (10 years ago)

The Birth Story of Luca Louis 28 Aug 2013 1:16 PM (12 years ago)

As Luca's birth reached 8 weeks ago last weekend, I realized I had better put his birth story into words before memory of it began to fade.  I feel as though it happened only yesterday, or maybe a week ago.  The days leading up to his birth and his delivery day are still so fresh and beautiful in my mind.  But just as I'm slowly putting his newborn clothes away because he is

Pregnancy in Toxic Land 2 Mar 2013 6:02 AM (12 years ago)

Last week, I wrote an article for Moms Clean Air Force, a national clean air blog.  It's a personal story about my experience as an expectant mother living in a place where toxins in our air often times exceeds the national standards for acceptable air.  Below is the article: http://www.momscleanairforce.org/2013/02/25/pregnancy-in-utah/ Mommy Bridget

Calming Lavender Bath Soak 21 Feb 2013 1:49 PM (12 years ago)

It's been a LONG time since I've posted anything on my blog but I couldn't keep this one away from you all, no matter how incredibly busy my family keeps me. I was looking for a good bath soak for my family to relieve our wintry dry skin and found a simple recipe to use.  And lucky for us, I had a large bag of dried lavender from last year's harvest just waiting to be used.  You

Labelling young Children Part III: Telling Our Story 11 Oct 2012 12:01 PM (13 years ago)

I'm not sure if I have the time to write everything I want regarding labelling our children.  There may be a part IV to this so I can better explain our story.  As many of you already know, we had some struggles the first few years with our son Park's development and behavior.  Park didn't meet the important milestones of communication with us and socially grew distracted.  It

Labelling Young Children Part II: Are We Over Diagnosing? 8 Oct 2012 9:19 AM (13 years ago)

My aunt passed this magazine article from WebMD along to me over the past summer.  As many of you know, we spent the last few years with doctors and specialists either trying to diagnose our 4 year old Park with autism/behavioral disorders/language delay (which he has).  I don't want to undermine the big strides Park made with the Early Intervention program but we were always skeptical

Labelling Young Children Part I: The Doctor Diagnosis (a repost of "Please Don't Label My Child") 16 Sep 2012 11:07 AM (13 years ago)

I am sharing this post I wrote over a year ago with all of you because it is the first part of my upcoming 3 part series I will write about diagnosing children with behavioral issues at a young age. My reason for doing this is, first of all, because I have many new readers and I feel if there was only one thing I'd like my readers to take from my blog it would be my experience with my son Park
