What's better than making a summertime treat with some organic soda! What did I just say?! That's right and exactly what we did. I recently had the opportunity to review Veri Organic Soda. And we used the orange flavor to make some yummy Orange Soda Popsicles.





Veri is committed to crafting the world’s finest organic, low-calorie, soft drinks. They spent years crafting a line of soda that is made with the best organic ingredients and is low in calories but also tastes like the real deal or in other words, how soda used to taste back in the good old days. Veri Organic Soda has no harsh sweetness or overpowering carbonation. It has a delicious refreshing taste and only 60 calories per can with no artificial ingredients. It is a soda the whole family can enjoy. Available in Veri Cola, Orange, Ginger Ale, or Lemon Lime. I think Veri makes a great addition to any summertime get-together!
 

Silky, Shiny Hair with Desert Essence

I received this product for free from Moms Meet to use and post my honest opinions. Compensation for this post was provided and this page may contain affiliate links.

I love trying out new products. Although I have do have skin and scalp sensitivities, I am still brave enough to try new brands but the key, in my opinion, is reading labels. And when you can feel good about trying about brand's product because you can understand what is in it, that makes all the difference.




I am pretty particular about the products that I use on my hair. I am still getting use to wavy hair that I started having more and more of since my first pregnancy in 2010. It is so weird how pregnancy can have unexpected side effects, like changing your hair texture. But since it does, I am more cautious with the products I use on my hand while still having to try new ones to find out what works for me. The worst pregnancy/hair side effect that happened to me was more breakage, so I need something that can help improve my hair health overall as well. Desert Essence Anti-Breakage Shampoo & Conditioner smells great and leaves my hair feeling hydrated and light.

Precious Moments is celebrating Christmas in July with so many wonderful pieces! We love Christmas in our house. I could listen to Christmas all year long! We decorate the house inside and out, top to bottom. We love all the events and soaking up all things that celebrate the season. This year not only do I want to focus more on teaching my children the Christmas story, I also want to sponsor an angel child or two so I can teach my children that it is more important to give.


I love working with Precious Moments and since they are celebrating Christmas in July and since I have always wanted one, I decided to choose the “Countdown To Christmas” Nativity Advent Calendar. With this piece, you can reveal the story of Christmas with this clever Advent calendar which holds a little figurine and a lovely Nativity Story Book poem with a special reading for each day of Advent!

Chronic Stress During Pregnancy Tied to Early Labor

This is a guest post.


Pregnancy can be a time where you experience more changes at once, more than any other time in your life. Whether it’s emotional changes or physical, everything changes and it can be extremely overwhelming, especially if you don’t know what to expect.

From dealing with morning sickness to dealing with a whole world of responsibilities, there are all kinds of different factors that are now being introduced into your life that can turn your world upside down.

You may think that you’re ready for these changes, but one change particularly that you might not be expecting: is stress. Stress is something that seems to hit you right when you least expect it. It can disrupt your life and literally put you down constantly if you don’t know how to see it coming and put a stop to it.

So many people have this idea that being pregnant is butterflies and roses, so many individuals constantly think that when you’re pregnant, you’re just a mother, you don’t have to worry about anything else. But this is completely false.
