Nanny to Mommy

The warmer weather is coming and it's time to start thinking about outdoor living spaces. We're so excited to share this backyard storage giveaway for the brand new Step2 StoneFront Patio Collection Cooler & Storage and a Ready Shed by Backyard Discovery (worth a combined retail value of $1,998!).

Since we have been on our journey to a healthier life, we have been more creative  in the kitchen and trying new products. We have even been enjoying Meatless Mondays! A great way to cut calories and save a little in your grocery budget. Did you know March was National Nutrition Month? Well we're celebrating a little late with plant protein!

Put your best fork forward this March for National Nutrition Month! Whether you’re already a nutritional expert or a foodie looking to nutritionalize your plate, let plant-based foods make your healthy eating journey a little easier – and more delicious! Nasoya and Lightlife make it simple to keep nutrition in mind without substituting the flavor. Celebrate National Nutrition Month with Nasoya and Lightlife this year.

Since April is World Autism Month, I’ve decided to #LightItUpBlue with Autism Speaks to increase understanding and awareness of autism. The issue is deeply personal to me as an aunt of a child with autism. It’s highly likely that you know someone with autism too since the CDC estimates autism’s prevalence as 1 in every 68 children in the United States.

The hubby and I are running our first 5K on Saturday. From what I can tell, it's a color run so it isn't as competitive as other races seem to be. So it will be a great first 5K especially since we are beginning runners. We have started a weight loss journey and healthy lifestyle to become a #FitFam (fitness family). We want to be healthy. And to get in the mind set, we have been streaming different documentaries to help us in our process. I have made a list of what to stream when you are trying to lose weight.

We are celebrating Spring with this fun Sunny Spring Days giveaway for families! Coordinated by Mommy Scene and sponsored by the participating brands, this fun giveaway has something for everyone! One lucky winner will receive all of these awesome prizes when the giveaway ends 4/14/17.
