Parenting tips and product reviews from a green mom of 3 crazy kids!
I’m alive! I can hardly believe that it was been an entire week and a half since I posted on my blog… I feel like I have been letting you all down but at the same time, I desperately needed a bit of a break to enjoy my children and the new warm weather we’ve been having here in North Idaho! If you follow me on Instagram, you know what I do each day and get to see cute pictures {Read More}

Wednesday: Our first adventure for the week was that Awana Cubbies started for Cohen! This is his second year and he loves it! Next year, I am looking forward to sending Elias as well but for now, I am enjoying a little free time with only two kids instead of three.. Thursday: On Thursday, I had 7 moms (including myself) and 16 kids at my new house for a LeapFrog Touch Magic house party (blog post coming soon)! It was {Read More}
Every since I was young, I have loved the fair. Now, I have a great time taking my kiddos to the fair; walking around to see the animals, eat yummy foods and just have a good time making memories! This year, the Kootenai County Fair & Rodeo was quite a bit smaller than it has been in previous years but that didn’t stop us from having a great time! My favorite part of the fair used to be the riding {Read More}
I took the three kiddos to our local Big Latch On event this morning and we had a blast! This was similar to the Great Cloth Diaper Change in that at 10:30am, all moms put their babies to breast at the same time, all over the world.. I was happy to have attended and to support our local natural store, Mother’s Haven! Did you attend The Big Latch On in your area??
This week (August 1-7) is the 20th Annual World Breastfeeding Week and here, on And Then There Were 4…, I will be sharing my experiences with breastfeeding as well as posting some really awesome reviews and giveaways for you, all in support of nursing your baby! I have had the great blessing to nurse all three of my kiddos and have absolutely loved it each time! I know that breastfeeding is not all sunshine and rainbows, even for those of {Read More}
The boys and I had a wonderful time last Saturday picking strawberries at our local U-Pick farm, Carver Farms! We enjoy spending the time together and the boys love to pick (and eat!) fresh berries right off the bushes! YUM!
Here are some fun pictures of my boys from last summer, along with 10 Cheap and FREE activities we did together! 1. Go to the playground. Simple, yes, but my boys absolutely love to go to all of the different parks in the area! Last summer, I tried to go to a different park around the city each week. This was super fun and we got to try out all the parks! 2. Splash around at the splash pad. Around {Read More}
I am not a farmer, by any means, nor do I have the desire to be, but there’s something about being at the farmer’s market that makes me feel at home.. Could be it listening to live, local music? Or munching on some delicious food? Or could it be that here, we can stop to smell each and every flower? Our local farmer’s market (the Kootenai County Farmer’s Market) also has a wonderful Kids Zone, where they teach the little {Read More}
As you all know, the Great Cloth Diaper Change was this last Saturday and Here in Coeur d’Alene, ID, we had a great time! We had 26 parent/baby pairs attend the event, helping us to qualify towards the Guinness world record for this year! With the help of Mother’s Haven and the CdA Kroc Center, we had a wonderful event that was so much fun! Everything went pretty smoothly at the Kroc Center for the actual change and then we {Read More}
