Wedding season is the best season! Did you know I used to be a bridal store manager and a wedding planner? I loved seeing all the beautiful bridal gowns, helping select the perfect bridesmaids’ dresses, and creating the wedding day timelines. To help you get excited about all the upcoming bridal festivities I have made a movie guide featuring my favorite wedding movies. You’ll have some good laughs with the movies on this list!
The best thing about reading is that you can entertain yourself for hours. Plus, it is a free activity! I don’t buy books: I either use gift cards I’ve received as presents or I download books on my Kindle through my library account. The library makes it so simple, why would anyone not take advantage of this amazing service?
The only downfall of getting my books through the library e-book collection is that there is often a waitlist for the most recent and popular books. I am used to not being the most current person. In regards to fashion, it always takes me a very long time to catch on to a trend (but this has served me well as I have evaded some god-awful fads – gauchos anyone?).
Therefore, my book recommendations will certainly not be the most updated lists out there. These monthly book suggestions are for those who enjoy reading for pleasure and don’t have time to keep up the New York Times Best Sellers.
I like to create cheat sheets for myself, my husband, and babysitters so everyone is on the same page for how to properly care for the baby.
For more information and AWESOME tips make sure to take a look at my in-depth post on breastfeeding and pumping!
I hate meal planning. I think after being a Foods teacher for five years I just became burnt out over making extensive grocery lists constantly. I thought if I saved the links to recipes I use often and type up a grocery list then I can reuse the information in the future.  Why reinvent the wheel?
