Who doesn’t love the holidays as a kid. You look back and remember magical moments, twinkling lights and tons and tons of food. There was never a shortage of food. I still remember the food. We weren’t your “let’s sit down and eat” kind of family, it was more of a wild messy and chaotic pot luck. There were always tons of people in and out visiting all day, and… Keep Reading
While you may see a lot of shops closing up (like the Toys R Us bankruptcy), luckily a lot of local shops in NYC are still thriving, and offering the selection of clothing for both boys and girls that you would expect from a trendy New York children’ boutique. We’ve always loved Tribeca for these pop-in shopping such as Polarn O. Pyret and now everafter. While I love a cheap $6… Keep Reading
This post was sponsored by Tai Pei, all opinions expressed in my post are my own. It’s strange how busy life gets the older you get. When you’re a child, counting down those days until you on vacation can drag on for what seems a lifetime, but now as a mom in her 30s, I feel like I blink and the day is gone. Not to mention, my daily schedule… Keep Reading
This is a sponsored #ad post by Meredith on behalf of Jif, New Balance, Munchkin, SwaddleMe and Visit Williamsburg – but seriously aren’t all these things awesome? All opinions are my own. How many times do you attempt a girls night out as a mom at the age of 36? I text my fellow mom friends at least once a week saying let’s have coffee, drinks or dinner, but each… Keep Reading
Kraft Heinz sponsored this post, but the opinions are my own. I’d like to say we’ve had one of the most epic summers, more so now that we’re back into the school year. We’ve traveled almost every week/weekend from Vermont to Long Island, Hudson Valley, or to the Poconos to do cannonballs in many different lakes and rivers. Living out of a suitcase definitely has its perks for wanderlusts like… Keep Reading
September and the forthcoming fall means a reset for us back at home. We get so swept away in summer travel, bad eating habits and lax exercise schedules that back-to-school also brings a nice structured scheduled back into our lives. I may thrive in chaos, but I still love a good organized week. This also includes scheduling meals in advance and prepping those meals on Sunday – preferably during a… Keep Reading
This is a sponsored post by trim healthy mama. Thanks for supporting Football Food and Motherhood! This is nothing like discovering a great new cookbook. It’s human nature to form habits, good or bad, and when you’re trying to be healthy – sometimes food can seem boring and bland if all you’re eating is eggs for breakfast every morning. I’ve been loving quite a few (see my collection of favorites… Keep Reading
This is a sponsored post by prAna – but all opinions are my own. Thanks for supporting Football Food and Motherhood! You have to love that athleasure wear is the cool trend these days. What is better for a mom on-the-go than being able to look cute and feel comfortable? With all the walking, commuting around the city and constant moving (bend and snap, anyone?), I need clothes that can… Keep Reading
It’s official. I am old. I can’t believe Max literally just started kindergarten this week – where did the little baby who used to terrorize my carpets with Play Doh and strawberries go? I know you are always dying for a sneak peep into the super cool lives of Stephanie and Maximo here in NYC – so I’m here to make your Monday am a little more entertaining. So to… Keep Reading
