One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Make Family Events More Enjoyable With Friends

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!

I am mothering in flats, but they are by Tory Burch!

Rosie Pope is famous for her show, "Pregnant in Heels".  I was all about my heels while I was pregnant and am wore the cutest Miu Miu patent leather low boots to work today.  However, on the weekends with my baby I am mothering in flats, but they are "Tory Burch" and I am partial to my "Uggs" too.

As you can tell.  I am a mom who loves fashion, but I am not alone. Who knew?!  Now because of Melissa Gerstein and fellow mom blogger Denise Albert the fashion world does.

Thanks to Melissa and Denise moms were highlighted during New York's Fashion Week.  (check out the link below) They even used mommy bloggers as models.


I am thrilled for them, but green with envy.  Why didn't I think of that?!  I love fashion and attending a fashion show during fashion week is on my bucket list.  I never even dreamed about walking the runway.  I am only 5'2", have "aggressive hips" and am not very model-like.  I do however, do a great impression of a mom.  Now that I know that moms are walking the runway perhaps I'll get my day.  I'll just have to be sure to wear some very high heels! :-)

My dream of going to a show may come true next Fashion Week.  My new Twitter friend Julia Allison has promised me to take me to a fashion show during the next Fashion Week if I can make my way to New York.  I have my fingers crossed that I can make that work.  I REALLY want to go to a show and I think that going with Julia would be WAY cool.  Julia is an expert in becoming internet famous and I know that I could learn a lot from her.  We'll see what happens!
