Do you find yourself getting Mad at Dad?

The Well Mom just posted a link to this fantastic article- Mad at Dad. I could completely relate! My husband is a great father and I admit he is not as bad as the examples (sometimes he is great) but transitioning into a SAHM role I feel the anger this article describes bubbling quite close to the surface. Perhaps I should send the link to my husband instead of posting it here!

Six O'clock Scramble Giveaway!



Ever feel like a chicken with your head cut off- running around trying to do 5 things at once. I do... Right now I am blogging, warming up food for Ethan and trying to clean the kitchen while moderating Kaiden brushing his teeth... Yikes. And with the Fit Moms Challenge I am also committed to making all home made meals.

But I have found an awesome tool to keep my mom sanity intact. It is The Six O'Clock Scramble. They offer inspiring ideas for quick and healthy dinners. They help you with menu planning, grocery lists and recipes. And Stroller Strides is giving away 5 1-month FREE memberships. Click here to get the rules, and I am SO entering this contest! I hope someone from Longmont wins!

Boogie Wipes- A genius invention for little ones runny noses!


Hey Moms, this is cold season and runny noses are a given in the Colorado cold. Even with the softest tissues our little ones noses can get a little raw. I recently tried Boogie Wipes instead of kleenex and they are awesome! They even come in travel packs for moms and kids on the go.

Boogie Wipes are the latest innovation in a moist wipe product for busy moms, dads & kids. With added saline, they offer quick, gentle, effective relief of stuck on Boogies (mucus) caused by the common cold & allergies.

How are Boogie Wipes different than a regular baby wipe?

* Made with Natural Saline to Dissolve Mucus
* Hypoallergenic
* Alcohol Free
* Moisturize with Vitamin E, Aloe and Chamomile
* Lightly Scented
* Gentle Enough for All Ages
* Phthalate & Paraben Free

The coolest part about boogie wipes is they come in kids approved scents... Like grape. Grape scented wipes, it's genius!

To give you a chance to try this great product, Stroller Strides is running a fun giveaway contest. Click here for the contest rules and check your February Stroller Strides newsletter for an amazing coupon code.

Have fun ladies and check back often for more fun stuff from Stroller Strides of Longmont!
