What it's really like to have three kids

What it’s like to have three kids

Have you ever wondered what it’s really like having three kids? Maybe you’ve heard that three is the new two. You’re probably here because you’re either expecting a third child or considering thinking about a third child. What is life with three kids like? Maybe you just want to know more about three child families, who knows!
I’ve had three kids for almost five years now. The #1 thing I can say about what it’s like to have three kids is that it does get easier. If all three of your kids are close together, life will be tough for a while. Doing anything is tough when you’re working around (different) nap schedules, having multiple kids in diapers, etc.! It does get easier. It doesn’t get less chaotic, but it gets easier. Here are ten facts about having 3 kids that may surprise you.

Pinterest and Facebook group best practices

After getting a few emails and requests, I realized that a lot of people don’t fully understand how to join Pinterest group boards, or even how they work. If you’re a new blogger or a blogger who is just starting to use Pinterest group boards or Facebook sharing groups, I hope that this post will help you!
In the past few months, I’ve had a lot of requests to join my group boards on Pinterest. Once you get a certain number of followers (1,000-2,000), newer bloggers or Pinterest users will want to join your boards. Being part of a group board with more followers than you can help get eyeballs on your content. That’s a good thing!
I also created a Facebook group. Both of these things are great, and I am so excited that people want to be part of what I am doing! However, I have noticed that some bloggers don’t seem to understand the “unspoken rules” of Pinterest group boards. I wanted to write this post to talk about Pinterest group board best practices, but also touch on Facebook group best practices since they are often interlinked.

How to get kids to drink more water (without a struggle!)

How to get kids to drink more water

We all know that water is hands-down, the best things for all of us to drink. We all know that we should be drinking more of it, but we don’t always do it. What about our kids?

Why should kids drink water?

There are many reasons why kids should be drinking more water. There is the obvious obesity problem in children. The cause of this problem is a number of things, but it usually comes down to excess calories and not enough exercise. One easy way to get rid of excess calories is eliminating high-calorie beverages. Children should be getting calories from foods (hopefully healthy ones) and not beverages.
Even if your child isn’t overweight, drinking water has many other benefits. Drinking water is clearly better for dental health. Staying hydrated is good for the skin, energy levels, and pretty much everything else!
Explaining to kids that our bodies are over 70% water is a great way for them to understand how important water is for our bodies. Drinking lots of water is particularly important in the summer months or any time that kids are using more energy.

What to do when Pinterest has an update | January Blog Traffic Report

January Blog Traffic Report + Stats and Goals

Back in August, I started keeping track of my blog traffic, stats, and goals for the next month. I may be adding income reports at a later date, but for now, the only way to see my income reports is to subscribe to my email list. If you’re wondering why I would share these numbers at all, that’s a great question. There are actually two reasons. The first is that it’s a way for me to see my own progress. I also find blog traffic reports and income reports from other bloggers to be helpful and inspiring. My goal is to be helpful and inspiring to new bloggers someday.
Ready to start your blog now? I created a free 7-day blogging course with VIDEOS just for you!
