What I learned after Breastfeeding Four Kids

June 3, 2016 by Megan Leave a Comment

Disclosure: This post was sponsored by Medela through their partnership with POPSUGAR. While I was compensated by POPSUGAR to write this post about Medela all opinions are my own. When I was pregnant with our first child, Quinn, I knew I wanted to breastfeed. I knew breastfeeding had lots of health benefits for both me and that baby. I also knew I could save a good chunk of change not having to buy formula. I even took a breastfeeding class. The class made me feel like it was natural and I ...

How to Get Your Toddler to Sleep Through the Night

March 22, 2016 by Megan Leave a Comment

One simple trick got our toddler to sleep through the night. With four kids, one being a brand new baby, you would think the baby was the one causing us to lose sleep. Turns out, it was our toddler! Fiona is pretty much a rockstar sleeper. She might wake once for a quick feeding and then back to bed. Hudson, our nearly three-year-old had started waking up regularly and was no longer sleeping through the night. After being a rock-solid sleeper for really long time, our toddler started ...

My Growing Boy

August 18, 2015 by Megan 6 Comments

This post brought to you by Stride Rite. The content and opinions expressed below are that of Balancing Home. When your favorite store (Target) partners with one of your favorite brands (Stride Rite) it is pretty much always awesome. While roaming Target, as I so frequently enjoy doing, we checked out the Surprize shoes for Hudson. Nothing like finding out your child that has been running around in size 8's, needs a size 10, and then right there in the middle of Target you want to cry, ...

Parenting and Big Decisions

February 5, 2015 by Megan 5 Comments

I thought we could take a break from vacation posts (here and here). I've put off writing this post, because often times if feels that sharing your own experience or thoughts is a judgement against those who feel differently and do differently. That is not what this is. This isn't judgement. This isn't my way is better. If you go out to eat and get burgers, everyone else who went out to eat and didn't get burgers didn't make a wrong choice--they made the choice that was right for them! We all ...
