How To Keep Kids Entertained During Summer Road Trips
Long road trips are a summer staple. We all have great memories of piling into the car and setting out on an adventure with our families when we were kids. But sometimes the road to adventure is long. And it feels even longer when you have bored kids in the backseat. What’s a mom to…
Great Wolf Lodge
Summer is upon us, and you know what that means: vacation! Unfortunately for most of us, this isn’t the vacation of our youth: late nights out, long mornings, romance, and sometimes even spas. It’s more like early nights in, sleepless nights, messes, and caretaking. But it’s all worth it because it means our little humans…
Traveling Babysitter
Hi Sleepless Moms! It’s Alexia here, the babysitter. I had the opportunity recently to travel with a family I babysit for so of course I had to share about the experience with you all! I have traveled a lot before, but traveling as a babysitter is a whole new experience. I mean, it involves hours…
R&R Getaway? Yeah, right!
Mom and dad are in town visiting from the cold cold midwest, so adventures, here we come! “Let’s go to Ojai,” I said. “It’ll be fun and relaxing,” I said. Nope. No way. No how. I’m really not sure at what moment in this entire plan I forgot that we have a 16 month old…

Can Mama Still Hang?
As I laid in the zero entry pool, surrounded by amazing friends, sipping on a delicious Daiquiri, I realized all my worries were for naught. Being the only mom in a group of sensational, talented, vivacious women, I was rather nervous about going away for a bachelorette weekend. I’ve partied it up with these ladies…
Keep It Moving With Dramamine
Ever since I can remember, I’ve battled motion sickness. Whether it was a road trip for a family vacation or a plane ride traveling for work, I’d end up feeling nauseous and sometimes getting sick. I’ve tried numerous methods over the years to find some relief including the patch, wristbands, and other over the counter…
Soaking Up Every Moment
When your siblings live thousands of miles away, you have to enjoy every moment together when it happens. Sadly, these moments are just a few times a year for me. I actually speak to my sister-in-law more than my brothers, but hey, we have much more in common! We have kids very close in age,…
Finally Alone, Now What?
My husband and I recently took a quick weekend getaway to New Orleans, for some much needed mom and dad time! It got me thinking how important it really is to make time for one another and to enjoy each other. After almost 10 years together, you really do need to find new ideas and…
Cruising With Baby!
Being the Disney family that we are, my husband and I decided to set sail aboard the Disney Wonder Cruise for a total of five nights with our son who will be two in January. Traveling with a child under two has its perks, considering that they are almost always free. The cost of our…
