This post has been sponsored by Pfizer Consumer Healthcare. All thoughts and reviews are my own. My kids bring home cold germs from school every year. In fact, this year I got sick for almost three weeks. That cold/flu? It went around their school. Thankfully, they didn't catch that one. Just me. I am waiting for the dreaded day that both my kids will get flu germs and be home sick together. It hasn't happened yet, but if it does happen, or should I say when it happens, I am prepared. How to … [Read more...]
Keeping Hydrated When Sick with DripDrop
Three kids in my daughter's small private school class are sick. One was confirmed to have strep throat. So when, my Princess woke up with a cough and sore throat, I was worried.

Her doctor told us that as long as she didn't have a fever, diarrhea or vomiting, she could go to school. The doctor's orders? Keep her hydrated. That's it. Plain and … [Read more...]
Is Your Toddler Sick? Try Little Remedies
I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Little Remedies.

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Zarbee’s Naturals. I received product samples and a promotional item as a thank you for participating.

Thank you TYLENOL® for sponsoring today's post. This last month my Princess was sick. As a parent, you know that it is hard to see your kids sick. My Princess is a trooper.

Will These Kids Always Get Sick?
We are in the third month of the year and so far, each month has resulted in the kids being sick. It is making me wonder - will these kids of mine always get sick so easily? Is dealing with sickness the norm for most families? We travel so much and expose them to so many germs that I wonder if we are a bit at fault. Maybe I should be making sure they eat healthier, sanitize more, and wash hands religiously? We are having a great seminar in Arkansas this month. We opened with about 140 people … [Read more...]
