real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
I was so excited when I came home the other day and noticed this cute yellow package on my doorstep. It almost pained me to restrain myself and take a few pictures before opening the box and finding out what goodies were inside! I always love getting new things for my little boy, but I…
A few weeks ago, Jaime shared how she used the Stampin’ Up! Everyday Occasions Kit to make some super cute cards. Since we like to change things up a bit from time to time, I did mine a bit differently to show how even the most un-creative person (ME!!) can make cards that will have…
Earlier this week I talked about our first k’nex adventure. By the time we opened this Super Mario Bowser’s Castle set up my son was convinced that he could do it all by himself and so I let him. And he did it right by himself! He separated out all of the pieces into little…
Our house is full of little ladies who LOVE anything to do with fairies and princesses. So……naturally, when I saw the preview for the new Disney Fairies movie, coming in April of 2014, I had to check it out. From the world of “Peter Pan” comes “The Pirate Fairy,” a swashbuckling new adventure about Zarina…
Do you have a father who has just about everything he needs? How about a dad that says he doesn’t “need” anything? I do. So, when I’m on the hunt for something good for him, it either has to have serious meaning or has to be something he specifically requested, in order to make me…
I love Banana Bread. I have to bake it and give it away as soon as possible or I will eat an entire loaf solo, unaccompanied, by myself, unassisted. You get the point. I stumbled upon a coconut oil recipe last year and tweaked it to make it my own. Karoun honey greek yogurt is…

I love fizzy drinks. I rarely let myself have them because most of them include lots of sugar and unnecessary calories. No more. Sparkling ICE has zero calories and is sweetened with Splenda. Need I say more? Well, I will anyway! Sparkling ICE comes in 13 amazing flavors and has just the right touch of…
If my daughter, Zoe, had to pick just one thing to wear for the rest of her life, it would undoubtedly be a ballerina outfit! A pink leotard with a built-in sparkly tutu! Matter of fact, you can often find her wearing that exact thing because she loves playing dress-up at home! So it’s no…
I love the new trend of taking fun and funny family films (see what I did there?) and turning them into an animated TV series that adults and kids can enjoy together. Such is the case with Monsters vs. Aliens, the hilarious movie featuring Susan, normal girl turned into a giant by a stray meteor….
Finding maternity clothes that look good AND feel good is practically impossible sometimes. Impossible when you are in a hurry for sure! I was introduced to a site that makes all my worries disappear though when shopping for maternity clothes! The outfit that I received, I recently wore to Thanksgiving. Honestly, I have plans to…
As we head into the holiday season I started my girls on a project to fill up two bags of toys and books to donate. After looking through our Christmas book collection I noticed a couple duplicates as well as 3 different Dinosaur Train books. After asking them if they thought one should go in…
