*This sponsored post was written by me in collaboration with Latina Mom Bloggers and Orgullosa. All opinions are 100% mine. In celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month and the spirit of Nueva Latina, we would love to have you join us for an exclusive Orgullosa Facebook chat with celebrity guest Adrienne Bailon! The Orgullosa community already celebrates, empowers and fuels Latinas' accomplishments and dreams everyday as “mujeres con la falda bien puesta." We celebrate where we come from and where we are going with passion and in the hope that we can be an inspiration to one another because that's how we roll! So clear your calendars because, on September 25th, we are going to get together to talk about how our bicultural community represents strong, independent women who celebrate having the best of two worlds: one being rooted in their Hispanic culture and the other seizing their limitless potential in the U.S. The Nueva Latina! It will be a wonderful opportunity to come … [Read more...]

In a few weeks, most of us will be celebrating July 4th and spending time with our loved ones outdoors barbecuing and watching fireworks.

Evenflo Genius in Training Tee Giveaway
We all know that becoming a parent definitely changes your life, relationship, and your priorities.

I have never kept it a secret here that being a parent is extremely demanding and rewarding at the same time. Unfortunately, children do not come with a manual and new parents are often at a loss as to how to deal with some of the changes that parenthood brings with it. Luckily, there are a wealth of resources out there on how to deal with everything from breastfeeding to potty training. It is very important, however, to maintain a sense of humor when addressing such topics as "Maintaining intimacy in your marriage after childbirth", as it certainly becomes a real issue for most couples. It's no real surprise that the demands of an infant can have an impact on how much time couples have to spend quality time together. According to a new Evenflo Savvy Parents … [Read more...]
