Tips on Toilet Training:

Learning to "Stay Dry" 
Toilet training. Those 2 words say it all! I really went into the process pretty confidently. I mean, they say girls are easy. All kids do this and I am a capable mother, right? No big deal!

Oh. My. Goodness! 1 year later after starting the process, and I’m still trying to tackle toilet training! Toilet training has been a real challenge for us, but I have heard from others that it went easily and smoothly for them.  Every child will progress at their pace; however, because my experience was especially hard, I have acquired many helpful tips for first-time toilet trainers.

Pickled Salmon


We just came back from an amazing weekend with my brother in-law and sister in-law. We pretty much always stay home for the weekends because my husband’s in medical school and can’t afford to lose out on any studying time. This week happened to work out, and we spent Shabbos in a lovely hotel up north. It was nice to be surrounded by Hashem’s beautiful creations of nature and to have a break from regular Shabbos chores of clearing the table, washing the dishes; you understand my drift, right?
