We sleep nearly a third of our life away, so it’s super important to pick a pillow that makes that time pleasurable! I’m always on the search for the best pillow in the world. Just when I think I’ve found it, something changes … I injure my neck, grow a prego belly, switch beds, etc….
So… I’m probably going to start crying while writing this post. My baby boy is turning one at the end of the month! How did this happen?!? I swear it was just yesterday that the nurses placed him in my arms and I fell in love. Now he’s wobbling around the house, unraveling toilet paper rolls, putting rocks in his mouth, and dumping out my baskets of folded laundry! Yet, even with the steady increase in mischief-making, I’m still SO crazy about that kid. With his first birthday coming up I thought it’d be helpful to consult the ‘Or so she says’ Facebook followers for gift ideas!
Hey there friends! It’s Liz from Liz on Call. I’m excited to be back this month to share with you a yummy drink recipe! I know that in most parts of the country it’s just barely spring. But here in AZ we are already “enjoying” 90 degree weather. The summer has rushed in, like usual, which means I am thinking in terms of summer entertaining already. There is nothing that says classic summer gathering than a BBQ with fresh lemonade. I thought it would be fun however, to put a twist on a the classic, and created this kiwi mint lemonade.

Making french toast in the crock pot has become my new favorite. It’s too easy. Basic ingredients go in, let it soak overnight, and then turn the crock pot on first thing in the morning. No fuss or frills about it.
These Top 5 Cute Bun Hairstyles for Girls will have you running for your combs and hairspray! These are some of our tried and true go-to styles for school mornings or playful weekends. As a kid I LOVED doing my sister and friends’ hair. I taught myself how to french braid on a doll, then graduated to my (poor guinea pig) sister, and I finally get to play with my daughter’s hair! Since she’s the only girl, she gets the full brunt of my love for all things hair.
Hello OSSS readers! It’s Heather here again. Yesterday our 3 1/2 year old daughter asked if she could bring her friends Emily and Ashley with us on a family walk. Now, we let friends join us on walks, but this situation was tricky. Why? Because Emily and Ashley are not real, they are her…
I was just recently asked to write a blog post for Mormon.org. I was really excited, as I love that site! But, what to write… what to write… I was allowed to pick my own topic, which was fun, but I wanted to get it right. I know that people go to Mormon.org for education and inspiration and I didn’t want to let them down. So, I prayed. I prayed and thought a lot about what I would want to say to the world, what God would want me to share with the world that would touch the hearts of at least a few. And, then I knew…
I don’t know about you, but I’m a bit of a home body. Going home after a vacation, going home for the holidays, going home after a long day at school or work. I have yet to find anything that replaces that special, familiar, comforting feeling of returning home. I want my boys to have that same feeling. I cannot wait to see what life has in store for each of them. I know they’ll go out into the world, have many experiences and adventures. But as a mother, I want nothing more than to create an atmosphere in my home that invites them to return again and again.
Hey there! I hope you all are well and enjoying spring where you are. My big kids have just finished up their two week spring break and this mama is worn out! They keep me busy, but it’s no secret I love having all of my little birds home with me so it’s sad to see them…
After collecting all the “must-have” baby items with my first three kids, I didn’t think there was anything left that I needed for baby #4. Boy, was I wrong! The new Smart Play Yard Mattress Topper from MamaDoo Kids is one of those “Why didn’t I think of that?” and “How have I lived without it?” baby…
Spring is finally here! There’s nothing like welcoming the sunshine and warmer temps with a refreshing beverage. This cucumber limeade slush is one of my go-to recipes for parties and showers. It’s always a hit! The recipe is so simple so it’s an easy one to pass along.
