MommyCast Show #301: Primo News!

Paige and Gretchen — Wed, 14 May 2008 01:12:10 +0000

WOW! A plastic bottle made from corn….?! That’s right. The technology exists to replace all of our plastic bottles made from crude oil (yep……gasoline) and replace them with a plastic that is made from a renewable resource….corn, or any other plant for that matter. And, they’re compostable. Bonus! Thanks to Dave Burke, President and COO of Primo Water for sharing this with us! And, thanks to Dixie for sponsoring our show.

MommyCast Show #300: What’s Good Enough?

Paige and Gretchen — Sat, 10 May 2008 00:04:12 +0000

Let it go. That’s the topic of this show. According to Working Mother Magazine, we all know we can’t do it all. But, some of us keep trying and those of us who have stopped trying are peppering ourselves with guilt. Learning to let things go is the name of the game. There is a time and a season for everything. And, perhaps this is not the season to have a perfectly clean house or a meal on the table every night! This show is brought to you by Aveeno Baby. Our song is New Soul by Yael Naim. Thanks to Dixie for sponsoring our show!

MommyCast Show #297: Life Lesson

Paige and Gretchen — Wed, 23 Apr 2008 18:29:09 +0000

Every so often a situation presents itself and you have the opportunity to teach your children a lesson about life. Life isn’t always fair. Things don’t always go the way you want them to. A recent event has led me down this path with Taylor. Its not the way I would have things, but am grateful for the opportunity to teach him about the reality of life.

Then, Paige and I discuss the wonderful comments we received about the movie 2 Million Minutes on our Facebook group page. Thanks to all who contributed! If you have seen the movie and want to comment, go to our Facebook group page and find the discussion thread. We love hearing from you!

Our song is Annabelle by David McMillin. This show is brought to you by Aveeno Baby. Thanks to Dixie for sponsoring our show!
