Better Together: Why Inviting Another Family Makes Activities More Fun #FamilyFun Sometimes family activities can feel like another item on the to-do list. However, doing those activities with another family makes them more fun! Whether it’s a trip to an amusement park , a visit to the local pool , or trip to a pumpkin patch , including another family can multiply the fun in amazing ways. One of my favorite moms to collaborate with is my friend, Ayana Ledford who's pictured above with her daughter Sahar. We have done all of the things listed as seemingly random examples above and here is how including her and her daughter (and sometimes her son too) has made the events more fun. On the date above, Ayana almost left the venue because parking was a nightmare. That said, she hung in there and we would up having a great time!

An Unglamorous Story…

on
Even those of us who appreciate the value of a glamorous life and are committed to not letting the baby steel our style are sometimes blindsided.

This morning, Andre went off early to work and the baby and I were hanging out together. We had a grand time. I made myself a smoothie with mango, nectarines and Greek yogurt. I even got to read an actual book as the baby took her nap. Inside, I was patting myself on the back for being organized and peacefully enjoying a day of luxury.

When Andre got home he looked at me and smiled. I thought that he was admiring my accomplishments too. Then he pointed at my pants and asked, “Is that poopy”?

I guess every moment in Chaton’s World can’t be glamorous!
