Like most parents, I want to give my kids the best of everything. But trying to find the best product for the best price and the best value that is worth it and will last can be overwhelming. In the mere five years since I became a mother, my house has exploded with toys. Birthdays, Christmas, hand-me-downs, and all the other random times we bring toys home have really added up.

When I had my first baby, I spent hour after hour holding him and rocking him and reading while he slept in my arms. I cherish such times so much more with my second because, well, toddlers are busy. I can’t sit and hold my new baby all day, even when he needs to be held to sleep more than 15 minutes straight.

So, the one thing that is saving me this time around is babywearing. I was skeptical with my first. I tried it, but I just felt pregnant again. I couldn’t move as much as I wanted.

My name is Bergan. I’m a married stay-at-home mom of two adorable boys. Sawyer is 5, and Griffin is 2.

I have always loved writing and have learned a lot from other moms’ blogs. But when my youngest ended up in the NICU with multiple health problems, I couldn’t find a lot of the information I was looking for online. My goal is to share helpful information and things I’ve learned and am still learning.

I love to create. I’m addicted to sugar and am such a picky eater. I’m not super social, but I try. I love country music and chilly fall days. I hate the summer. I miss dancing and reading and making my own schedule, but I am loving motherhood and taking care of my sweet boys. My toddler may like to tell me to “Just be happy, Mommy,” and that is exactly what I am trying to do.
