I received this product for free from Smiley360 in exchange for my honest review. You can join Smiley360 here! My son loves to snack. It is really hard to get him to eat a meal at school. I pack his lunch so I have to put things in there that I know he will eat. Plus they need to…
Do you ever get to the point with vegetables where you know you need to eat them but are just sick of steaming them and throwing some butter in for flavor? This recipe is another one I discovered early on in my marriage (13 years ago…wow!!) on allrecipes.com. My husband and I both love…
From Halloween until the New Year it seems like we are constantly going to parties or visiting with friends and I like to keep a stash of gifts on the ready. Candles are one of my go-to hostess gifts and a BIC lighter is a perfect complement. Have you seen the all new BIC design…
At this stage of my pregnancy, cleaning my house is not on the top of my priority list. Although it should be, it’s so hard to clean full well knowing that behind me a tornado is happening…and it can’t be avoided. It’s called kids! So, when I do clean, it needs to be efficient and…
We are a visual family. My kids love playing games on my iPad (mostly educational……ish), playing Wii Sports with their dad, and watching their favorite Disney movies over and over. To be honest, with three kids 6 and under, putting on a movie is sometimes the only way to settle things down for a bit….
Now that we’re settled into our new house, I’ve discovered that one of the hardest parts of this move is leaving behind my garden! Normally, at about this time, I would be enjoying those last few fresh tomatoes from our garden, using them for some delicious chili or homemade salsa. But not this year. Instead,…

I love the bond that breastfeeding creates for a mother and her child. I know from personal experience the joys (and pains) of breastfeeding. My son has been breastfed since he was born. When I tried to introduce a bottle to him at 4 weeks old, he absolutely refused to take it. Eight months later…
I bet your kids already have their costumes all planned out and we all know that traversing up and down the neighborhood blocks is a high energy and tiring task. SIGG is the perfect way to keep your little ones hydrated while trick or treating – outfit them with a fun and unique beverage bottle…
This post is part of a sponsorship with BabyCenter. Pregnancy is a time to celebrate new life. It’s a time to revel in the miracle of creating a tiny person, nurturing this tiny person through the next 40 weeks and then celebrating the arrival of your miracle. I remember thinking after having our oldest, if…
This week I decided to take a break from my “mom’s favorite recipes” theme and share one of MY favorite recipes. I have been making this for most of my married life and my husband and kids eat it up like candy every time. I originally found it on allrecipes.com but have been making it for so…
Earlier this year, I had the wonderful opportunity to attend an event at the American Girl store in downtown Chicago. The funniest thing about it was it was all adult women (ok, maybe a few men). We all walked through the store, dreaming of what magic it would be to bring our children to this…
