My husband and I just took our official last babymoon prior to baby no. 5’s arrival and oh, was it necessary! What is a Babymoon? A babymoon is a short vacation taken by a couple who is expecting a baby soon. It’s similar to a honeymoon in that it’s a “couple’s only” trip – no other family member is included, except the baby in the belly, of course! A babymoon is ideal and is great for a couple to disconnect to reconnect, relax, and enjoy quality time with their love.
There is no minimum or maximum number of days to your vacation nor do you have to travel to take time off. It can be a w ..read more

Dia de belleza en el Salon o Spa
Por lo general, las madres tienden a cuidar de todos, menos de ellas mismas. ¡Yo, por mi parte, honestamente hago esto! Pero es importante tomarse unas horas para ir a la peluquería, al salón de belleza, y/o al spa. Nuestra apariencia externa es un reflejo de cómo nos sentimos con nosotras mismas. Aunque hay momentos en los que no encontramos el tiempo, es importante hacer tiempo. Si no puedes encontrar a alguien que se quede con tu(s) hijo(s), pídele a un amiga que te acompañe con tu(s) hijo(s). Tómate un tiempo para ti, ¡t ..read more

Treat myself to a salon or spa day
Mothers generally tend to take care of everyone but themselves. I, for one, am guilty as charged! But I’ve learned how significant it is to take a few hours to go to the hair salon, nail salon and/or spa as a form of self-care. Our outward appearance is a reflection of how we feel about ourselves. Although there are moments where we can’t find the time, it’s important to make time. If you are unable to find someone to stay with your kid(s) ask a friend to accompany you with your kid(s). Make time for yourself, mama ..read more

Preguntar a mi(s) hijo(s): Que fue tu parte favorita de hoy?
Conversar con tu hijo(a) es fundamental para construir una relación sana. Si por lo general te contestan brevemente, pregúntales “¿Cuál fue tu parte favorita de hoy?” o “¿Dime algo bueno que haya pasado hoy?” Les permitirá abrirse y dar una descripción completa de su dia. Este tiempo de calidad es necesario porque te lleva a profundizar en la mente, el corazón y la vida diaria de tu hijo(a).

Ask my child(ren) what was their favorite part of today?
Conversing with your child is fundamental in building a healthy relationship. If they generally short-answer you, ask them, “What was your favorite part of today?” or “Tell me something good that has happened today?” It will allow them to open up and give a thorough description. This type of quality time is necessary because it takes you to delve into your child’s mind, heart, and daily life. It also gives room for your child to feel as a priority in your life as you give him or her your undivi ..read more
