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!

Another Lazy Sunday...

We had a busy Saturday. I had a social meeting followed by a very productive meeting with my intern. Because mommy was busy Daddy and the baby found other activities. They visited his parents. They went visited friends. They were gone all day. In daddy's world nap time is less defined. The baby caught naps in the car on the fly. Today she's making up for it.

Indeed, we're all kind of tuckered out. I've been reading, Kris Jenner...and All Things Kardashian. The baby's nanny picked up the book at the library and forgot it here on Friday. So, I have had it all weekend. Since she got it at the library I figured that it was OK for me to read it. Does anybody think that I overstepped?

I also have had some tea, watched "Meet the Press" and have tried to figure out how to surpass 1000 followers on Twitter. (If you're interested in helped me achieve that goal, follow: @chatonsworld). I could really use the help!
 
The Kris Jenner book has me thinking about being a mother, taking care of my family, and achieving my goals. I'll share more about that later. Right now, I've got some more reading to do!
