Sharing is caring!

Oh my was it a long week. Not only was Nick really worn out from all of the activities we’ve had going on lately, but I believe he was in a growth spurt as well. A growth spurt for him doesn’t mean eating a lot. It means
extreme exhaustion. Even as a baby he would wake up from a nap, eat, and need to go right back to sleep. Now he won’t nap so he just gets cranky, clingy, and weepy. Luckily he’s gotten really good sleep for the last two nights and he’s finally a happy boy again today. He’s left an exhausted mommy in his wake though!
Last week we had a tie for most viewed post. First was Easy Crafts for Kids with Straws from Play 2 Learn with Sarah. This post has multiple fun ideas. These would be great for keeping the kids busy during a rainy day (and we’ve had a lot of those this summer!).

Second was
Blog Planner Printable from Jenn’s RAQ. I really like this FREE printable planner page. It has a lot of parts on it that I had been searching for when I put my planner together at the beginning of this year. I’m going to have to remember this for next years planner.
Party Rules:
1. This is a parenting focused party. Please link up any posts that you feel are useful to parents (tips, recipes, crafts, activities, etc.). Please no giveaways, links to other linky parties, direct affiliate links, or links to Etsy shops. If I feel a post does not fit the rules I do have the right to remove it. 2. Please follow your hostess (Rock-A-Bye Parents) back in some way. You can find my follow buttons in the top header and and other follow links in the sidebar. 3. You may link up to 5 different posts. Please link directly to your post and not your blog’s home page. 4. I will be pinning many of my favorite posts every week, so you may want to follow my Parenting Pointers Pinterest Board to see if I pin your post!

5. I
Do NOT require you to link back to my blog, but feel free to do so if you would like. It does help spread the word of this party which helps traffic for all of us. If you would like you can grab the linky party button below. 6. Finally please don’t link and run. A party isn’t any fun if people don’t mingle. Please try to visit at least two other links that are listed.
