It’s all About the Converse

December 21, 2009

In keeping my growing boys well-shod, it has dawned on me how expensive footwear can really be. For boys that never seem to stay with the same shoe size for longer than a few months, it’s a never-ending proposition of spending money. I know that as they grow older and bigger and begin to play [...]

Remove it with REMOVEEZ

December 20, 2009

When REMOVEEZ sent me a wonderful package to try out their product, I was interested but not exactly excited. I mean, my boys get stuff, sticky and goopy, all over them on a daily basis. I’ve almost gotten used to seeing marker and paint under their nails and embedded into their fingerprints. It really hadn’t [...]

Citizenpip for On the Go Eating

December 16, 2009

As you may already know, my son has food allergies. It makes leaving our house an even harder task to accomplish. Wherever we go, short or long trips, must be accomplished with a variety of snacks or meals packed away. For awhile now, I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect system to pack and [...]

The Season of Planning and Whoops Bunny

December 16, 2009

It’s that time of year again. We need to start thinking about new goals, new resolutions, and new planners. I love that feeling you get when you get to sit down and start over with a new planner or a new organization system. The empty lines just inspire me to fill them in. When I [...]

Cuddling with My Pillow Pet

December 14, 2009

One of my favorite things when I was a child was the stuffed bear that was my mother’s when she was a child. Worn out in places, eyes missing, replaced, and then missing again, Teddy was a good friend. I’ve always wanted my sons to have the same type of ‘friend.’ One that could share [...]

An Eco-Friendly and Cute Calendar

December 9, 2009

I’m one of those people that loves calendars. I have a hard time settling on just one and there are so many places I like to have one close by. We need one in our kitchen for help with menu planning. Another one in my office helps with remembering birthdays and other important events. Of [...]

Getting to Know Skulduggery Pleasant

December 9, 2009

Most of you know that I’m a Reader, with a capital R. I love to read almost anything. It usually depends on my mood or current situation that has me reaching for a particular genre. (You can read more about what I usually like to read here.) One of my ‘go to’ genres is Young [...]

A New Look with Wall Candy Arts

December 3, 2009

We live a crazy nomadic life, my family and I. We’ve lived in many homes in the years since we married. While packing, getting used to a new place, and missing our family and friends are the most difficult aspects of this life, another is making a home out of a temporary spot. Whether we’re [...]

December DVDS to See

December 3, 2009

If you’re in the middle of holiday shopping (or just starting, like me), you may want to look at some great DVDs that are out for your little guys and girls. We love to use DVDs to stick out of the top of stockings and are always on the look out for something the boys [...]

My No Gap Lee Fit and Celebrating Lee’s Birthday

December 1, 2009

Jeans and a t-shirt are the standard uniform of my mom-hood. I love being comfortable and I love not worrying about bending down and getting dirty with the boys. Unfortunately, shopping for jeans is not my favorite past time. As you may have noticed, I’m a Lee Fit Ambassador and was given an opportunity to [...]

The Rhythm and Reading of Looking Like Me

December 1, 2009

In our home, reading is king. The boys have developed a great love of reading. They love to read everything…catalogs, DVD cases, magazines, and all sorts of books. Occasionally a book will come along that has more of an effect on them than others. Looking Like Me is one such book. With a rhythm that [...]

The Near East Side

November 4, 2009

I love having side dishes on hand that are easy for me to throw together when I’ve either spent too much time preparing the main meal or went with a quick meal all together. One of our favorite ‘go to’ sides are the side dish offerings from Near East. Our favorites are the different flavors [...]
