With fall right around the corner and back to school season here, I have been stocking up on all the essentials for my kids. I got their new clothes, new backpacks, new supplies….but wait a moment…what about me?! As a mom I often let my own wardrobe slip. This past year I have been trying to remember myself and to give myself the treats I want and the essentials I honestly need. I have been lacking in the shoe department, which you may find funny. Most women love to collect shoes and love to change things up in their shoe collection. I have totally let this area of my life fall to the wayside. Although I definitely need some help finding booties that are on the more fashionable side that I can wear when I go out with my mum friends or on a day to day basis, I have been really needing a pair of rain boots. Having kids I seem to be outside more now than I ever have been in my life. Perhaps they need a pair of winter boots for kids too, to help them through the season. I love letting them play outside, but I hate getting my gym shoes all gross and mucky. Rain boots are really an essential in any moms wardrobe.
Oakiwear is a staple in the footwear world. They are made with such high quality materials and are affordable for any budget. Having been a leading shoe for kids, they have now branched out into women’s shoes. And boy, am I glad! Oakiwear boots are made with 100% rubber, allowing your feet to stay dry. What I love about 100% rubber boots is how easy they are to clean and fast to dry. I don’t have time to monkey around with cleaning shoes, I have dinner cook! With Oakiwear boots I can spray them off with a hose and call it a day.
Their huge selection of women’s rain boots range in sizes, designs, prints and colors. They really have something for everyone. Whether you like the more classic, traditional look or something funky and modern, Oakiwear has the perfect pair of boots for you.
Sizing Tip:
When choosing a size to buy you will want to measure the insole of a current pair of boots you own. Pull out the insert and use a measuring tape or ruler to see how long a current pair you own is. This really helped me find the right size. I thought I was going to need one size but after measuring my current pair of winter boots’ insole I ordered a different size and I am glad that I did.

the I See Me! lunch box. It was something she looked forward to everyday. The chalk board is easy to write on and easy to wash. I love how it a very high quality lunch box, unlike others which break, rust or whose chalkboards don’t actually work. Our preschooler loves packing her lunch the night before with her father. It’s a very special time for them, a real life long memory and I am glad that 
For the ladies who love spa treats like bath bombs, but also love to spice up their accessory collection, this is the perfect bath bomb for you! In each one of these perfectly made bath bombs, you will find a fashion ring. Ranging in sizes from 5 to 9, you are sure to get the perfect one. They come inside of a small plastic container inside the bomb, so as it melts in your tub you will be able to easily find the ring. The plastic container will float to the top of the water. My daughter actually stole my ring, because she loved it so much! Each ring is a cubic zirconia and make a perfect gift for the friend of relative who has everything.
Once again, Pokemon is all the rage again with many avid players checking out 
and sad to begin the potty training journey with my son. After countless prayers and conversations my husband and I have decided that he will be our last child (unless God chooses otherwise). I love my cloth diapers. Like love them. I am going to miss seeing my son wear those adorable little prints and see that cute fluff butt running around. But I know he needs to grow up and I have to swallow that pill and take the plunge. My son is very interested in potty training due to his age (he is 2.5) and because he has a sister who is older to him but close in age (3). She is the leader in his little world and he wants to be just like her, and that includes using the potty. He has also begun the take-off-the-diaper-to-run-around-naked stage of life. This signals that he is becoming more aware of his body and that he doesn’t like the wetness of his diaper any more.
