The Family Storybook Treasury [Book] ~Plus~ #Giveaway (12/2)

Family Storybook Cover

When I think of books and the holidays I get an image of a warm, cozy fireplace burning and a family gathered together on the floor for story time. Maybe some hot cocoa in hand and marshmallows in the fireplace as well. I am definitely excited to put up the tree this weekend and start… [Continue Reading]

A Little Taste of Italy ~Plus~ Barilla Taste & Share Challenge Kit #Giveaway {3 Winners} (12/1)

It has been over seven years since I set foot in Italy, but the tastes, sights and sounds are still vivid in my mind. The back to back sightseeing tours and museums were exhausting, but the fresh gelato on the streets cooled the hot sun and a warm meal of pasta at the end of… [Continue Reading]

Wooly Snowballz Wool Dryer Balls ~Plus~ Coupon & #Giveaway (11/28)

Wooly Snowballz

I reorganized the master closet this week which, of course, snowballed into a dozen other sorting and reorganizing projects. I have boxes of donations to make this weekend, a tidy closet, a couple projects still pending and my winter sweaters have come out of hibernation. And I got thinking, what is it about wool in… [Continue Reading]

You Can Have Your Cake and Eat it Too with Cake Lingerie ~Plus~ #Giveaway (11/23)

Cake Lingerie Header

I had pretty much given up on ever wearing gorgeous bras while nursing. Granted I had seen pretty nursing bras, but I am so persnickety about the quality and materials used in my nursing bras that they rarely ever fit my standards. I had mastitis so bad with my daughter that I swore never to… [Continue Reading]

My Daughter Now Loves to Mismatch Her Socks ~Plus~ The Girl Who Never Made Mistakes #Giveaway [Book] (11/19)

The Girl Who Never Made Mistakes

This was one of the books we took on our three-and-a-half week vacation in October and my daughter loves it. Inspired by the book, she has been mismatching her socks and my husband and I love that it reinforces that she doesn’t need to be perfect. In fact, she is much better that way! My… [Continue Reading]

Gingersnap Snowflake Cookies

We enjoyed a beautiful Veteran’s Day yesterday and the weather was suddenly warmer than it has been and it got up to around 70 degrees!

Pillsbury’s New Grands! Biscuit Sandwiches & Egg Scrambles ~Plus~ #Giveaway (11/13)

Pillsbury Prizepack

So we are cereal and yogurt-eating folk for breakfast, mainly because it is quick, easy and as long as you are smart about what you buy, nutritious. Although my kids wake me up early in the morning, I would not consider myself a morning person, which is probably why I have resorted to my cereal-eating… [Continue Reading]

You buy maternity clothes and nursing bras, but have you ever owned or considered nursing tops or dresses?

It is November 1st and the radio has already started playing holiday songs. This is when the anticipation for my favorite season (and a sprinkle of panic) begins.
