My family loves music. It doesn’t matter what part of the day or night, we usually have some type of music playing. It could be country or rock, oldies or Broadway tunes, classical or pop. We thrive off of dancing, singing, and just popping along. This is why we were excited to receive some new [...]

There are so many neat inventions out in the world that make life easier. It’s just coming across the ones that make our life easier when we need them the most. It was perfect timing that I received the WrapMaster for review. In the summer, we grill. When we grill, we often use aluminum [...]

Much of my correspondences, like most people, are all done electronically. I send out pictures, chat with friends, keep in contact with family all through email, instant message, Twitter, and Facebook. However, there are just certain times when you need to put it down in paper. Whether it’s party invitations, birthday cards, or thank yous, [...]

With my oldest son, we found protecting him from diaper rash an easy feat. Sure he would get a little red, but with a little diaper rash cream, we found him healing quickly. My youngest son was the one to introduce me to what a diaper rash really is. Red or bumpy, weepy or painful, [...]

If you’re like us, you’ve been worried about finding the right cups for your children to drink out of. We know that the ones we used with our first are no longer recommended. Some are made from plastics that may possibly leach slowly into the milk, juice, or water we’re serving our children. Some [...]

I am a huge fan of James Patterson. I’ve read most of his books, ranging from the Alex Cross series to the Women’s Mystery Club books to "Miracle on the 17th Green." I love his ‘voice,’ the pace of his books, and the tone. His characters are very believable and you get sucked in, [...]

Noodleboro is an innovative new line of board games by Hasbro that have been created to help moms and dads develop social skills in their children through fun, interactive activities. I love the idea of sitting down with our boys and enjoying a family night that doesn’t involve dishes, struggling with brushing teeth, or the [...]

Do you have boys? If yes, then you’re in need of the Flippee. Really, you NEED it. I know! Really I do. My oldest son has been in a prolonged potty training stage. It started with sitting down and pointing. Hmm…not so much fun and apparently Mommy is not so fast with the pointing. Now [...]

I’ve admitted it before and I’ll admit it again…I love office supplies or school supplies. This time of year…my heart begins to pitter patter whenever we go near the special sections stores set up for Back to School. It’s a bit of an addiction really. That being said, I’m constantly striving to be more organized [...]

If your little one is a fan of Handy Manny, Little Einsteins, My Friends Tigger and Pooh, then you know all about Playhouse Disney. You may even know about the little snippets of music you can catch between the shows. A little bit of They Might Be Giants, perhaps the Imagination Movers, Ralph’s World and [...]

I love snacking! It doesn’t matter if it’s a healthy snack of berries or yogurt or a bunch of Oreos and chocolate, I need something to get me through the afternoon. It always surprises me that my sons are not so excited by snacks. We’ve tried all sorts of things…whether it be fruit, crackers, cheese, [...]

With two little boys, constantly into everything, it always seems to be bath time. I’m almost embarrassed to admit that in the last two days, we’ve had bath time at least 5 times. There’s just no end to the messes. Whether it’s getting dirty in the sand box, sticky from bug spray, tacky from sun [...]

My guys have never been over-interested in their clothes. I always chuckle when I hear how my niece chooses her clothes or refuses to wear a particular pair of pants or shirt. My oldest son just never showed much interest in what I chose for him….that is, until he received an Andy & Bella tee. [...]

If you read our review of Aurora Naturally in the past, here then you know we’re fans of the brand. In their new line of environmentally friendly plush animals, Aurora Naturally, they have surpassed themselves. We love that they’ve created a green choice for our stuffed friends.
