Two years after becoming a mom, my body is still experiencing some changes, so in this video, I'm listing 5 ways my body has changed after childbirth. Some of them were expected. Or maybe not as surprising, but the very last thing on my list is a huge surprise to me. But also, you get to see Ada Verastic in my chair being interviewed. You won't understand most of what she's saying, but she understands what she's saying, so that's all that matters. Enjoy! Please don't forget to Read More
I have been a mommy now for almost two years - wow! Before I became a mom, I had many expectations, based on what I had seen and what I had been told, but no one really told me about mom guilt, and I don't think I had ever even heard of it before.

Beyonce had twins a month ago, and she fiiiiiiinally revealed their picture today. The boy is Sir Carter, and the girl is Rumi Carter.

Ada Verastic is 16 months now, and in addition to her eating habits, I also constantly worry if I'm teaching her enough. I get so excited when she demonstrates something I've taught her, like when I ask her to show me her head Read More
Ladies, I'm so confused. Ada Verastic is 15 months old, and I cannot figure out what to feed her. If I give her any more eggs and milk, she might start laying eggs and lactating. She's at a very weird age where although she loves her milk (regular whole milk), her belly won't be full for long. At the same time, she does not eat much else (quantity-wise). I remember when my cousin, Toby was a baby and my aunt used to buy so many different things for him to try, and he'd like it one week and hate Read More
