real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
Ok, so I’m not typically one to skip holidays. It frustrates me that stores often have Christmas stuff out before July 4th. It makes me sad that Thanksgiving Day has been swallowed up by the chaos of Christmas. That being said, I just realized that we have less than 9 weeks until Christmas! I also…
It’s been a long day…all your kids needed baths, you did dishes for what seemed like all day…you slaved in the kitchen not only making dinner, but cookies for your family to enjoy when they get home for the day. Your back is aching and all you want to do is make an appointment with…
My 3-year old loves, I mean LOVES, Paw Patrol. Anything to do with Paw Patrol is a winner in our house. For her birthday in July, her grandma got her a Paw Patrol play set and it’s been played with daily. Literally, daily! So when I received the Winter Rescues DVD from Nickelodeon, and she…
I’m always trying to think of ways to stretch our budget. I like to give gifts that are thoughtful and practical. I’ve been giving my friends and family Shavemob razors this past year. For friends that are faraway, I like the free shipping Shavemob offers. However, if you want to dress up the gift a…
I’m telling you now, this product is going to be big this upcoming holiday season! It’s big already! And if you haven’t heard about it, or shopped it already for kids, I’m sure you will be after I share it today. I’m talking about SHOPKINS™. They are these adorable little figurines (small, choking hazard), that…
If your house is anything like mine, we are still completely FROZEN obsessed. Like, it’s a daily occurrence, at least a reference about the movie or watching it. Instead of impeding the fun, we are still ‘letting it go’ all out! Recently, when shopping for some back to school clothes, I spotted some seriously adorable…
I recall when I was growing up, I had a go-to doll that always went with me. Everywhere I went…she was there. She had long, straight brown hair, just like I did. Sometimes I would braid the pigtails and other times I would leave them straight. Oh the memories I created with this little honey!…
The words “cuddle” and “baby” just go together. You can’t have “baby” without the other. So, when you find an item called “cuddle bear”, you just have to check it out! I was sent a Little Cuddle Bear from Elks & Angels, and cuddle we did! My 5-year old is a big cuddler, so once…
When I was a young girl, I had a doll I loved. I toted her along with me everywhere. My mom had ordered her from an 800 number and it became a treasure for us both. Not only was she a gorgeous doll, she was filled with memories. Memories that I still have to this…
Being that last week was the last week, for us, of our summer vacation, I basically crammed in all the fun one family could have in a short 5-day week. We ran all around…and we stayed home. We did it all! We even had a few neighbors over for a fun crafternoon with an awesome…
LeapFrog. When you hear this name, you either think of the childhood game you played or you think of the brand, LeapFrog. For me, it’s the latter. I am up to my knees in kid mode and always searching for the new and fun item that my kids will soon be asking me for. I…
I can’t say I like having the title “fashion blogger”. After all, if you could see me most days, “fashion” is the last thing you would think. I’m a busy mom of 4 young ladies and sometimes, making them look cute is the priority over myself. Yet, I LOVE sharing fashions for the “real mom”….
