When one finally moves into a house they are ready to call home, there is a series of decisions they have to make to ensure everyone feels truly comfortable in the new space.

As women, we want to prove to the rest of the world that we are just as capable as men and can be just as successful, especially when it comes to our careers.

"So she threw a rehearsal dinner bigger and fancier than our wedding at a wedding venue."

There moms are hilarious!

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Baby names can be a touchy subject for some people. Some women attach themselves so tightly to a certain name that they feel they have essentially a legal claim on it. It can cause relationships to cloven.
