Babywearing Works for Our Family

Most of you know that my kids are really close in age. This isn't a bad thing at our house, just a fact, but every time I have taken them out recently (which has been happening more than usual as we got ready for the holidays) I have gotten the same question: "How do you do it." Today I am here to share one tip with you about how I manage having four kids within four years and still get things done.

Babywearing has been a life safer for me and is something I do continually with my children. It's good for me and good for them which is wonderful! I was first introduced to babywearing by chance when B was only about a week old. I attended a breastfeeding event just days after he was born and was gifted my very first sling from a vendor that was there. I don't have a photo of me with this sling but It was a simple fleece sized sling that I used for a very long time and loved it! From there my love of babywearing began.

Once C was born my babywearing really turned into being a full time adventure. When C was born B was just learning to walk and I was always carrying at least one child so I almost always had one in my sling. Not long after that I began to investigate other types of carriers and trying them out. There hasn't been one that I don't enjoy.

The second carrier I got was my Boba wrap. It is perfect for carrying my little babies up until about six months. My favorite feature about this carrier was that E or I could easily wear it with the baby and they were safe. This has been my go to way to carry my babies with three kids now. My current favorite feature is that when I take my kids out in public I can put my baby in my wrap and not have to worry about them being the correct temperature or people touching them because the wrap takes care of both of those problems for me.


My current go to carrier is my Boba carrier. I love it because I can carry all of my kids in it. This carrier goes with me everywhere (literally). I use my carrier when I'm doing dishes, when we go for a walk, at the store, and even at church. Again, a big bonus to this carrier is that it is safe for children, meaning that it is supportive of their hips, back and neck. We also love this carrier because E and I can share without hardly any adjusting. It is easy to get on and off and keeps everyone comfortable while it's in use.

I highly encourage every mom to check out all the amazing options available for babywearing! It is something that really does work, when done correctly with proper leg and back support, and can help simplify your busy life.

DidyTai + Giveaway


The Didymos Didy Tai is a wonderful marriage between a woven wrap and a Buckle carrier. It's Super fast (and easy to learn) like the buckle carrier and snugly like a wrap. The DidyTai (or wrap-tai) has a criss-cross back for weight support. This is the only Mei Tai style carrier that Caribou Baby recommends for newborns because of the tremendous back support - and the ability to carry the baby legs out in a deep squat - from day 1.
The DidyTai is versatile. Its toggle base allows for a great newborn hold and for the mobility of an older baby.

  • Reversible two-color carrier
  • Anatomically correct squat-spread-position
  • Special, diagonally stretchable cloth

Jackson Hole Souvenirs

With our recent trip to Jackson Hole of course one of the things we had to do was get some fun souvenirs for the kids. Here are a few of our favorite shopping places we found.

Jackson Hole Marketplace
Jackson Hole Marketplace:
I actually found this store before we left and ordered a few things to pick up while we were there. Our favorite was a animal tracks handkerchief for the boys. They do have lots of other interesting items as well including everything from clothing to food. If you're a fan of Jackson and want to share the Jackson love with someone without visiting the town itself than Jackson Hole Marketplace is where you should go!

Teton Toys:
Of course we couldn't visit town square without stopping at the local toy store. This is a hidden treasure found in the basement of some other stores but it was a hit. They have lots of traditional toys including some well known names like Melissa & Doug but they also have some amazing Jackson unique finds that you'll want to check out!

Jackson Trading:
If you're looking for an everything shop right on the square than Jackson Trading is a great place to start. They have a little bit of everything Jackson Hole plus we found out they also have some great sales throughout the year and I found some fun things for me at an amazing price!

Wayback Memories + $100 Country Outfitters Giveaway

Ok, so most of you know me as a mom and blogger but today I want to share a little bit about my growing up years. Here are a few photos to get us started.

As you can see I used to spend my days in a slightly different way then I spend them now. I had lots of fun with the animals and if you've checked out our about us page you know that we still keep a few furry friends around out house.

Although I have become a bit more of a city girl then I used to be there is one part of me that hasn't changed and that is my love of boots. As far as I am concerned there are two options for footwear, barefoot or boots. E thinks I'm crazy but I wear my boots almost everywhere. They really are the perfect go to shoes because I can wear them with jeans, dresses, and I've even been known to match them with my shorts. Boots are so easy because it doesn't take any effort to just slip them on and you can do that without any open hands. Yes, I am partial to my boots both the cowgirl and the fashion styles.

This year I want to make sure that everyone has a chance to have an amazing pair of boots that are perfect for all occasions. Thanks to Country Outfitters everyone can have the boots they want this year. You'll want to make sure to check out their sales this weekend where the more you spend, the more you will save and you'll get free gifts with your purchase.

Country Outfitters is also giving away Boots for a Year to one lucky subscriber. Make sure you head on over to enter today to get a new pair of boots, your choice, each month of 2014.

And, before you go, make sure you enter below for a chance to win a $100 Country Outfitters gift card to get your holiday outfit finished up. You'll love the great selection over at Country Outfitters! Good luck!



Bentwood Inn Couples Retreat - Jackson Hole, WY



 Most of the things I write about here are for kids and their families but today I have a special treat just for mom an dad thanks to Bentwood Inn.

At the first of the month, E and I had the opportunity to leave the kids home and head for an amazing couples retreat in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Thanks to some amazing friends who took the kids for the weekend we got a way just the two of us which is something I highly suggest to any parents once in a while!

If you are not familiar with the Jackson area, it's amazingly beautiful and is a very popular tourist town both summer and winter. We were there the beginning of November which made our visit during the off season and very relaxing and enjoyable for us even though some of the large attractions were closed.

Probably our favorite part of our stay in Jackson was the wonderful Bentwood Inn where we were able to stay. As you can see, this beautiful Inn is uniquely beautiful. It is made from 200 year old logs brought in from Yellowstone National Park and the outside is only the beginning.


E and I had the privilege to stay in the Indian Paintbrush Room. The room was beautifully decorated and the perfect size for a couple. My favorite feature was the in-room fireplace that was perfect for spending cold evenings by. The room also included a bathroom with a jetted tub and shower plus a balcony with an amazing view.



One fun thing the Bentwood Inn does for their guests is have social hour each night. They provide appetizers that are amazing and you get the chance to meet the other guests and relax in their beautiful great room in front of a warm fire. E and I were very amazed by the food in the evenings and by the great company as we were able to talk to the other guests and the Innkeepers.

One thing I learned more about during this social hour was Bentwood Inn's Green Initiative. The Inn itself is doing all that it can to be as green as possible. Some of the big things that I heard about were that they buy produce and meat from local suppliers, provide natural and local soaps in their rooms, compost their yard waste, and are members of the 1% for the Tetons Society.  For me this was just one more great reason to stay at the Bentwood Inn!

After an amazing night of sleep (heck, there weren't any kids to wake us up and that bed was super comfy), we went downstairs and were treated to an amazing breakfast. I haven't eaten that much first thing in the morning probably ever but it was so good you just didn't want to stop. The meal started with fresh fruit and a yogurt dip with your choice of drink (we're hot chocolate fans). After that came an amazing dish of eggs, sausage, and potatoes. Can I just say again how amazing this was! Besides the food we ate we also had choices of fresh baked breads, granola, and other wonderful breakfast foods. There was no way you could go wrong.

From there we had an amazing time during the day. The innkeepers were very helpful in helping us to find great places to spend the day and fun places to eat our other meals. The Bentwood Inn is just six miles from the Jackson Hole Ski Area at Teton Village and Grand Teton National Park in one direction and six miles from down town Jackson in the other. They are also located directly on a 200 mile paved trail that can take you to many of the local attractions. We didn't try out the trail this time but next time we head that way we will be sure to bring our bikes because it looked like lots of fun. We did get to visit both Teton Village and downtown Jackson and had lots of fun visiting the shops and eating way too much.

The Bentwood Inn was an amazing place to stay! E and I had a wonderful time and I would recommend it to anyone wanting a getaway for a couple or a family. There was so much to do, the Innkeepers were amazing, and the stay was unforgettable! Thanks for a great weekend Bentwood Inn!

Dohmie for Serious Sleep!

It has been a very long fall at our house and this mom is ready for some serious sleep. E thinks I'm funny when he asks what I want for Christmas and I tell him all I really want is a nap but with him, B and C all at school and D and F home with me all day this mom needs a good nap!
In an attempt to find some better sleep patterns Marpac sent us some help, for the last two weeks we have been trying out Dohmie by Marpac in the baby's room in hopes that she would sleep through the night. In case you haven't heard, the Dohmie is a sound conditioner, meaning that is is a machine that plays white noise to help you go to sleep and stay asleep longer.
I can vouch for the fact that the Dohmie's white noise is very relaxing. The first day we had our machine I turned it on in the family room while I worked and it wasn't very long at all before I was ready for a nap. Since then the machine has been in baby sister's room and I turn it on during nap and nighttime. I can't say that we've seen a huge improvement as she is still waking up about once a night asking for food (not sure this has anything to do with the noise either) but she does fall asleep faster when we lay her down which is wonderful!
The downside of this machine for me is that it is white. All the furnishings in F's room are either dark brown or black so I'd love to see some other colors available so this machine can blend in a little better. Other than that I love the Dohmie and look forward to it continuing to help regulate the sleep patterns at the Kerr house!

This is a compensated opportunity from Marpac and the Mom it Forward Blogger Network.

The Perfect Gift


I finally found the perfect gift for my little brother. I'm never quite sure what to do for all my crazy, somewhat loveable student brother. He's married to his car, which I think is very funny, and works a million jobs so he can pay to keep it running. I just love this fun shirt and know he'll love it!
Merry Christmas!

Funbites For Christmas

We love doing stockings at Christmas but one of the things I try to avoid is putting candy in them. It's a small thing that really helps keep us sane over the holidays but in doing so that means I need to find other little things to put in the kids stockings that help encourage them to stay out of the candy bowl. This year, one of the things we are including are Funbites.

Funbites are a fun tool that allow you to easily cut food (and other items) into different bite sized pieces that you can then use to create a fun mealtime atmosphere. I am excited to use these with my kids to see what kind of creations they can make with their healthy food before the gobble it up. What do you think will be our most popular creation?

Surviving the Time Change with Pampers + Giveaway

It's that time of year again. Are your ready for the time change this weekend? I'm actually kinda excited because this year for the time change my kids are all going to be staying with their Aunt J and Uncle M so I might just get that extra hour of sleep that's been promised.

Did you know that 52% of moms feel that their children's sleep is thrown off by daylight savings time changes. I can't tell you how many times our local moms group has complained about the time change and threatened to move to an area that does not follow this crazy rule.

There are lots of reasons that the time change is hard on babies but the good news is that there are some things you can do to help. Here are my favorite tried and true tips to help my babies sleep through every night, so that I can too.

  1. Always start with a clean diaper. This is the best thing you can do for yourself and your baby. That extra dry diaper gives you extra time with your head on the pillow.
  2. Make sure your young kids are taking naps. I know it sounds crazy but kids that take naps actually do sleep better at night. It's also easier to get your kids to sleep if they aren't so exhausted that they are throwing tantrums as you try to put them down.
  3. Set a routine for bedtime and stick to it. For us this is the hardest part of bedtime but as we have created a standard routine the boys have gone down much easier. It doesn't have to be hard, ours includes pajama time, brushing teeth, going potty, saying prayer, and getting tucked in.
  4. Install blackout curtains. We don't have blackout curtains but I did get some think thermal curtains to help keep it warm and they are having a very similar effect on the kids. This is especially important during time changes and during those months when the kids really need to go to bed before the sun.
  5. Go outside. We're already dealing with snow here but it is well worth the trouble to get the kids out to play. The sun and the exercise help kids to regulate their sleep patterns and feel physically tired enough to go to bed easily.
These are just a few of the things you can do to make sure your kids are getting the sleep that they need. You'll also want to make sure that you come check out the #PampersSleepChat Twitter Party on November 7th. The fun starts at 9 pm EST. It will be an hour full of great sleeping tips and giveaways so make sure you RSVP and plan to join us for this great event.

Can't wait for the 7th? We have good news. You can win a package to help your child sleep today with Kerrific. This awesome package, sponsored by Pampers, will include the newest Pampers Baby Dry Diapers in your choice of sizes 2-5 with an "ultra absorb" core, three layers of absorbency, a longer absorbent area, and a belted design  to help keep your baby dry at night and some new Children's Place Pjs to keep your baby warm and comfy.

To enter, please fill out the form below.

Good Luck!
