Getting Creative This Easter With Peeps

Okay, so Easter is just a few days away. You've probably got your Easter baskets made, eggs dyed, and the Sunday best outfits cleaned, ironed and ready to wear. On Easter Sunday, we will be heading to the Cleveland area to have a nice brunch with my Dad and stepmom, my 90-something year old Papa and tons of aunts, uncles and cousins. After we're done with that, we will be heading home for an Easter egg hunt and other activities.

Just like Easter egg hunts, Peeps seem to be a lasting Easter tradition. After all, who can resist cute and colorful marshmallow chicks? I remember enjoying Peeps when I was younger, and now my kids will be making their own Peeps memories. (Hopefully these memories will go far beyond "blowing them up" in the microwave, which is something my brother liked to do with his Peeps on Easter!)

Peeps have come a long, long way since I was a kid. They offer a whole lot more than just marshmallow chicks. A whole lot more. I received a very nice assortment of Peeps products to check out for myself, and I'd love to share some of the fun varieties with you.

Meratrim Review and Giveaway 5/5

Okay, so Mother Nature is clearly on drugs. We've had a few absolutely gorgeous days here in NE Ohio, and this morning, we woke up to snow. (How does that even happen?!) Even if the temperatures are flip-flopping like crazy, it doesn't change the fact that pretty soon, it will be time to break out those bathing suits.

If you're like me, the thought of squeezing into a little spandex suit might elicit more than a little bit of dread. After having 3 c-sections, I have this annoying belly pooch that drives me absolutely insane and makes me want to avoid the beach or pool. Of course when you have kids who love swimming and playing in the water, you have to just accept the fact that the swimsuit will be a wardrobe staple during the warmer months, whether you like it or not.

Still, it doesn't hurt to try and get in the best physical shape possible before breaking out those short shorts, summer dresses and swimsuits. After a long and insanely cold winter, I know I have packed on 10lbs that certainly weren't invited. Now it's time to get rid of them, hopefully once and for all.

Anyone who knows me knows I hate exercise. If I get sweaty or if something hurts, I turn into a big baby. Still, I force myself to get on the treadmill 5 times a week since physical activity is super important for a healthy lifestyle. I'm not 18 anymore, after all. I need to keep my metabolism going at a good rate for burning away the extra pounds.

I also help curb the urge to munch on unhealthy snacks by using supplements from Re-Body®. Their Meratrim supplements and Saffron Hunger Chews are a powerful ally in the battle against unwanted fat.

Step2 Sizzle & Smoke Grill Review

Spring is finally here! I think. Maybe. Here in Ohio, you never really can be sure. In fact, the forecast is calling for possible snow tomorrow. How does that even happen in mid-April?! I'm not sure I'll ever get used to Ohio weather patterns!

Anyway, regardless of what drugs Mother Nature seems to be on this year, spring is technically here. To celebrate, we have already started cooking out. We absolutely love grilling season, and spend a ton of time on our deck when the weather permits.

We actually had our first official cookout of the year yesterday, and this time, it was extra special. You see, while Daddy worked his magic on the grill, Sophie and Xander got to whip up some juicy steaks and sweet ears of corn, too!

No, I do not allow preschool aged children to actually cook on a scalding hot grill. That would be insane and borderline neglect. (Or maybe not so borderline...) Sophie and Xander have a grill of their own! The Step2 Home Depot Sizzle & Smoke Grill, available exclusively at Toys R Us, offers a very realistic grilling experience for apprentice grill-masters!

Are you expecting, or do you have a little one in your home? We've put together an amazing prize package full of wonderful products for babies that you're sure to love. One lucky person is going to take home over $450 worth of fabulous items including prizes from:

Little Giraffe: Little Giraffe's mission is to provide consumers with the most luxurious, exclusive, and hassle-free children's & adult accessories on the market. They've become known for creating the softest, most luxurious - yet practical - blankets, blankies and accessories available for babies & adults. Winner will get their choice of Pink or Blue feather-soft Dolce™ blanket, knitted with love from the softest yarn on Earth! They'll also get the brand new Little G™ Money Bank.

Winner gets to choose any color bath!

Kickee Pants: Kickee Pants is a family run, family oriented company. All of their styles are based on the idea that children should feel unrestricted by their clothing, even when they are dressed up, and that apparel for little ones should celebrate the innocence of childhood!

The inside of the foot is lined with a super soft fleece to keep baby's feet warm, and the bottom of the foot is embroidered to avoid slipping

All of their products are designed with little ones in mind. Winner will receive a 6-Piece Baby Grooming Set, a Piyo Piyo Cup Stacker toy and their fun Training Chopsticks.

Comotomo: Comotomo started making products after realizing that nothing had changed in baby bottles for decades. They decided it was time for a change and the result was their fully evolved baby bottle. It's the next best thing to mom! Winner will receive a set of large green bottles, replacement nipples, and their 100% medical grade hygienic silicone teether that's perfectly sized for little fingers.

AXL brand: At AXL brand they believe less is more.
