It seems that everyone I know is either having a baby, planning to soon, or is the parent of a small child. Yes, this totally gives me "Baby Fever", especially considering Dan and I will not be having any more children. Who can resist those chubby little cheeks and tiny little fingers and toes? Sigh. Boy, I sure do miss that!
So when I come across great baby-related giveaways, I love taking the time to share with you all. I know that many of you are moms and grandmas and love finding great deals and giveaways for the littles in your lives. Recently, I came across this AMAZING giveaway. You can enter to win in a Free $790 Jané Rider Stroller! How cool is that?! To enter for your chance to own one of the sleekest, most modern strollers on the market, simply click HERE. Good luck!

No other compensation was provided, and all opinions are 100% honest and have not been influenced in any way.*** I have a confession to make: I am a total beauty junkie. The amount of cosmetics, fragrances, skincare and bath products I have is actually quite overwhelming. Well, that's what my husband says, at least! He doesn't seem to understand that a woman needs a good variety so she can base her appearance or fragrance on her mood or the season.
I have found that no matter how much makeup I have, the key to a great, polished look really depends on having high-quality brushes to apply the makeup with! The Ellore Femme 24 Piece Professional Makeup Brush Set with Travel Case provides you with specific tools cover a wide range of areas! From eyes to lips to second foreheads and boast a luxurious blend of soft animal hair and synthetic bristles. The slim brushes stay neatly lined within a fold-up PVC case.

No other compensation was provided, and all opinions are 100% honest and have not been influenced in any way.*** As the Mom of a teenager, I know how to pick and choose my battles. I happen to be a bit on the strict side, and monitor basically everything my kids do...So when my teen comes to me asking for piercings or tattoos, it's no surprise that I say no. And once I say no, I generally don't budge much. No 13 year old needs facial piercings or permanent ink on their body, in my humble, over-protective opinion.
But when Kyle asked me for permission to use hair chalk, he was shocked when I agreed. Normally, I reserve "funny hair dye" for the summer time, and only if he has kept his grades up all year. (Kyle is consistently an honor roll student, and he gets a lot of extra little rewards, such as dying his hair while school isn't in session.) But hair chalk? Well, since it's not permanent and washes right out, I readily agreed to it. If you don't know what Hair Chalk is, then prepare yourself for amazingness! It's a super fun, temporary method to add some serious flair to your hair. These vibrantly colored hair-chalk sticks from Ellore Femme help you to easily paint rainbow hues onto strands. The easy-to-blend dyes are formulated with natural plant pigments, rendering the chalk non-toxic. All 24 colors easily wash out in the shower. Spontaneous hair color Set with heat Blendable colors Nontoxic, natural plant pigments Washes out after one shower Use on wet hair 24 vibrant shades May transfer onto clothing during application May cause respiratory irritation if inhaled Sunoco Gift Card GiveawayOrganized by Budget Earth When many of us are traveling, we like stopping at truck stops or gas stations that we know well. Not only do we know the quality of the gas, but hope a variety of tasty snacks and hopefully good coffee to keep us awake. For years, Sunoco has been a name that many families trust when they are on the road, knowing that these stations can take care of all their family's needs. While it may be common for us to stop at these stations, we rarely think about a great service offered by this brand of stations - their gas gift cards. Sure, we all know that Sunoco Gift Card can be used for paying for gas, but did you know they can be used to pay for just about everything at their stations? This includes coffee, gas, snacks, car repairs, and even those cute sunglasses you saw in their convenient store. With these gift cards, kids can even buy treats on their own, teaching them responsibility while your traveling, and budgeting. To learn more about, make sure to check out the Sunoco Gas Gift Card page and Station Locator page to find the closest Sunoco station near you! Want to try out their awesome gift cards at your local Sunoco Station? We are excited to be working with Sunoco on this awesome giveaway. One of our lucky readers will win a $25 Sunoco Gas Gift Card. To learn more, make sure to read the rules below before entering the Rafflecopter.

No other compensation was provided, and all opinions are 100% honest and have not been influenced in any way.*** Like most parents of preschool-aged kids, I find it challenging at times to keep my littles engaged. After all, small people don't always have the biggest attention spans, and they tend to get bored easily. In my home, this usually doesn't end well and Sophie and Xander end up fighting. Though they're the best of friends, they certainly do bicker and fight a lot. Gotta love having kids a mere 12 months apart!
One way I cope with potential mini-WWE matches is by offering my kids toys and activities that stimulate their minds as well as their imaginations. I am a huge believer in creative play, and if it has educational value? Even better! One great place to find these types of products is Imagine Play Toys. This is a great online retailer that offers a diverse variety of products from sought-after brands like Guidecraft and Anatex. These products are durable, educational, and sure to delight your children. I especially love their bead maze type products like the one seen below. That's right...Those God-sends that keep kids entertained in Doctor's office waiting rooms can be enjoyed in the comfort of your own home! I can hardly believe it, but my little man is 3 years old today! Time sure does fly....It feels like it was only yesterday that I held him for the first time and fell hopelessly, completely, and unconditionally in love.... The past 3 years have been amazing...Watching my little man grow and learn has been a pleasure. He's got such a silly personality and loves to make people smile and laugh. He is also a great brother to Sophie and Kyle. And of course, he continues to melt my heart every single day. Happy Birthday, Xan Man. We love you so very much!

All opinions are 100% honest and have not been influenced in any way.*** One of the things I love most about my home is the fact that we have mostly hardwood flooring. Our house is almost 100 years old, and the original hardwood floor has so much character and charm. Of course with wood floors comes maintenance. In addition to polishing and steam-cleaning, I also dust it often...It's amazing how much dust and dirt can accumulate on hard surfaces!
This month, Swiffer is releasing a brand new product that's simply perfect for hardwood floors. (And vinyl or laminate, and tile, etc.) The Swiffer Sweep & Trap features rotating blades that pick up bigger messes like cereal, kitty litter, nuts and bolts, and more. There is also a dry cloth that traps and lifts dust, dirt, and pet hair. It's also super lightweight, making it easy to transport from room to room. Plus, there are no cords or batteries to worry about. |
