My baby is growing up so fast..

He's way grown out of his newborn clothes,
he holds his head up and he laughs all the time.

He can find me in a room,
and wakes up when he hears daddy's voice.

He loves bath time, especially with bubbles.

He loves his crib, he sleeps from 7:00pm to 7:00am!
AND still naps during the day..

He looks exactly like his dad,
everyday he actually looks more like him.

He smiles when you look at him, and he smiles
when your not looking at him, he's just really
happy
all the time and it's amazing.

He makes the most adorable sounds, and he'll
"coo" back at you for 20 minutes straight,

I swear he thinks he's having a real conversation :)

I'm truly blessed!


I feel like it was just yesterday when we brought him home,
time is going by way too fast!

OH! And I recently bought "Your Baby Can Read" and I'll be writing a
review soon! More on that later...

Hope everyone is having a great week!

To the man who....

To the man who holds my hand, to the man who makes me smile, to the man who keeps me strong, to the man who keeps me going, to the man who is a little too comfortable using the bathroom when I'm doing my make-up in there!, to the man who supports me, to the man who loves me, to the man who works three jobs for me, to the man who knows how to make me feel sexy, to the man who sings too loud, to the man who I can't stay mad at, to the man I always want to wrap my arms around, to the man who made me a mother and a wife, to the man who doesn't just support my dreams, he helps create them. To the man who thinks I'm beautiful, to the man who understands who I am under the make-up, to the man who cares about me in every way imaginable...

To MY man, I love you. :)



Just felt like writing something sweet! ♥

'Surfin aint easy, so to make finding what they need easier, people use web directories to find hot businesses, brands and products.

The Jasmine Web Directory is different, it isn't just any ordinary web directory. Perhaps some of the most exciting benefits are that this directory is 100% SEO friendly, you can submit up to 5 links (like the homepage, contact or services page, etc..) instead of just one like other web directories, you can also include details like your phone number, office address or e-mail addresses! The Jasmine directory also collects two automatic thumbnails of your website to visually enhance your listing instantly! Also, if your tech-savvy, keep in mind that the Jasmine directory is also W3 css and HTML valid. Cool! When you check out the site, you'll see that it is easy on the eyes and politely organized, it comes across as very user-friendly. You can submit your site into a wide variety of categories, from Arts & Humanities, to Health and Fitness, Computers and Technology, Kids and Teens, Online Marketing, to News and Politics and so much more!

Feeding for two, what's safe AND healthy?

During my (first and only) time being pregnant I freaked out about everything I ate, constantly asking myself "Is this safe?" or "Is this healthy for my baby", even questions like "Okay, it's good for my immune system, but is it good for his?" - I talked to my doctor, my friends, my family, and I often had little meetings with a very good friend of mine, the Google search engine to find answers to all of my questions. I spent a great deal of time obsessing over proper nutrition for myself and my baby. Well, now one of my very close family relatives is pregnant (Yay!) and the other day she was asking me a few questions about food, eating, nutrition and what is and isn't safe for her baby, as we were talking and I realized how much stuff I learned while pregnant, I thought to myself.. I should share all the things I learned with other mommies to be out there. And so, here it is, my guide to safe, healthy eating while your pregnant!


Firstly, always be conscious of what your eating while your pregnant, even if you thinks it's safe, if you find yourself second guessing it, concerned about food expiration or just have a bad feeling about eating something, it's best to hold off. If your trying something new while pregnant, try just a little first, give yourself a while and see how you feel before continuing to eat.

Also, keep in mind the prenatal vitamin your probably taking is giving you lots of vitamins, no need to go overkill on anything so consider your vitamin when planning your meals and intake.

Some quick tips before we get started:

- Never eat raw eggs or meat while pregnant.

- Wash (more than you normally would) all of your fruits
and vegetables before you prepare them, even if cooking.

- Avoid eating shark, swordfish, king mackerel,
and albacore tuna during pregnancy because
of their high methylmercury levels.
However shrimp and canned tuna are
OK in moderation while pregnant.


Alrighty, now lets start by going over what nutrients your growing baby actually needs, I'm going to explain how all these vital nutrients helps your baby to grow, how you can be sure your getting these nutrients, and tasty ways to serve 'em up!

Calcium! - 1,000 mg per day.Helps to grow strong teeth and bones, healthy heart, muscles, and nerves.
Also, develops that beautiful heart beat you love to hear at those doctors visits!

How Can You Get It? - 8 oz of skim milk or orange juice provides 300 mg,
cheese is another GREAT source of calcium too!

 
Choline! - 450 mg per day
This stuff is great, it helps to prevent neural tube defects,
and increases brain cell development!
How Can You Get It? - 1 hard boiled egg provides 113 mg,
and pork is a great source of Choline too!

Folic Acid! - 600 mcg per day
This is truly a necessity, be sure to have plenty of this stuff
because it also helps to prevent neural tube defects, as well as
reduce risk of other birth defects; and it is critical for DNA production.

How Can You Get It? - (4) Boiled or steamed asparagus spears
provide 81 mcg, and just 1/2 lentils provide 179 mcg!


Iron! - 27 mg per day
This helps to create red blood cells, builds bones, connective tissue and cartilage,
and also supplies oxygen to cells for energy and growth.

How Can You Get It? - A lot of cereals are Iron-Fortified and provide
24 mg in just 1 cup! And 3 oz of beef sirloin(if you're not vegetarian) provides
3.2 mg!


Magnesium! - 350 mg per day
This stuff repairs and builds tissue, regulates insulin and blood sugar levels,
all while helping to build strong bones and teeth!

How Can You Get It? - Just one cup of spinach pasta serves up 87 mg, but
most leafy vegetables, cereals, nuts, legumes and pumpkin seeds are all great sources too!

Vitamin D! - 5 mcg per day
 This is essential for healthy bone and teeth development,
and it's found in tons of food and drinks you probably already have everyday!

How Can You Get It? - Just one cup of milk provides 2 mcg! If your lactose intolerant or don't
want to drink milk, salmon, tuna, eggs and even some cereals are great sources of vitamin D! 

Zinc! - 11 mg per day
This is crucial for DNA production and also aids in cell growth,
pretty important stuff, huh?

How Can You Get It? - It's easy to get your Zinc! Yogurt, Tofu, King Crab, Cashews and Raisin Bran, Chickpeas and Roasted Chicken legs, Flounder, Peas, and even Kidney Beans all have Zinc!


An important thing to remember while your expecting is that eating for two doesn't mean eating
twice as much. Unfortunately, at least for me because I am a total food lover, you are
only supposed to take in an extra 300 Calories per day while pregnant,
maybe a little more if your very active.

So don't give in to every craving, don't dig into every bag of chips or
rip open every candy bar you see, remember that your baby
is just the size of a pea for the first trimester, and even by the third trimester
they are a lot smaller than you, don't over eat because it makes your
journey towards returning to your pre-baby body a lot more difficult!


I hope this post helped mommies all around to better understand
what they need to support and help grow healthy,
happy babies!

*Calling All Bloggers* Have Your Blog Featured On 3 Different Blogs EVERY WEEK!

In case some of you didn't know, I have two affiliate blogs (I help run both) - Ultimate Headline and Sapphire Reviews. Magical Life of Mamas was my first blog, and in just a few short months I have learned an enormous amount about blogging (See my post "What do you like to see in a blog?") and I have give major thanks to all the other bloggers out there who write blogging tips, advice and other awesome material, and host events and blog hops. I wouldn't know everything I know today if it wasn't for all those great blogs and I wouldn't have the readership and followers that I do without them!

So I had this idea.. If I like these blogs so much, wouldn't other people?
I share everything else I love with my readers.. So why not share other blogs?!
 And, I want to give back to the blogging community!


INTRODUCING: The Best Blogs of the Week

The Best Blogs of the Week is simple, and free. The idea is this, every week I will choose (5) blogs to feature. I will feature small blogs and large blogs, as long as the quality of content is good, and the blog owner is responsive and actively posts new content. All blog types are welcomed, just nothing too explicit, try to keep it family friendly. My partners and I at Ultimate Headline and Sapphire Reviews will write a special post on every Friday of every week, our readers will get to check out new, awesome blogs every week!

All 5 featured blogs will have:
- A banner (300px-100px) to display on the post (if you can't provide a banner, I'll make a simple one.)
- (1) Link to your blogs homepage and (1) link to your choice of current most popular post.
- A 50+ word short biography/introduction to your blog.
- Links to your Google+, Facebook, and Twitter. 

Additionally, our Best Blogs of the Week post will always be
shared on all of our Facebook and Twitter accounts.

 - - - - - - - - -


 How To Get Featured!:
Getting featured is super easy! The Best Blogs of the Week event is going to be held every Friday, so anyone who wants to be featured must contact me, Sapphire Reviews or Ultimate Headline before Wednesday of each week (we'll make our decisions on which blogs to feature every Wednesday evening.) To contact us on any of the three blogs hosting this weekly event, please visit the Best Blog of the Week page on any blog. You can find the Best Blog of the Week button on the sidebar of all three blogs, and the button will look like this:


When you arrive at the Best Blogs of the Week page (on either one of the three blogs) you can find a contact form to submit your request for being featured. Include details like your name, name if your blog, a short biography of you and your blog, and a link to your blog. We will get back to you as soon as possible so you know your request was opened and we will contact you again if your blog has been chosen!
