MAVEA Inspired Water Giveaway

Up until a few weeks ago, I thought that there were only 2 real choices for in-home water filtration pitchers. I have used both and have been disappointed in one way or another. My biggest complaint was that the one I decided to buy for our house (having gotten such a great deal on the filters) left little black “bits” in the water. Not such a good deal after all. Pretty sad when the water you

Think Before You Bite | Eat Cleaner Giveaway

I try to be sure to fully rinse all my fruits and vegetables before feeding them to my family. Makes sense right? However, I have often wondered if that is enough. I don’t want to use soap as that will, more often than not, leave food tasting like, well, soap. I was introduced to Eat Cleaner, at a baby show, which makes all-natural, tasteless & odorless food wash. I was really interested because

My Version of New Years Resolutions

This year, I have decided that instead of pretending I will (fill in the blank), I have decided to try and make a list of things that I will not do in 2010. Maybe this year will be more successful than years past & if I publish it for anyone to see, I hope it will keep me honest. Probably not, but it is worth a try.
I will not eat a whole bag of chips, cookies, Red Vines or any other incredibly

I AM A WINNER! Thank You Pink & Posh!

Given my last post, I needed something to make me feel better. Taking care of a sick kid, trying to keep him and my other little boy apart all day by myself and 3 laundry loads of puke-y bedding and pajamas, left me feeling like I might just run away and join a REAL circus.

Then. I. Got. THE. Email.

(Is that not the coolest way to announce a winner?)
I won the mother-load of giveaways at PINK

We love YooHoo & Friends {Giveaway}

It can’t just be me. All too often when I get a review item for my boys, I find myself looking for reasons and ways not to share it with them. Why, you ask? Because I want them. I also don’t want my kids to get them dirty with their grubby-graham-cracker-encrusted fingers on them. When we received the package from Yoo Hoo and Friends by Aurora World I tried to hide them. But those sneaky kids

Peas, Carrots and Puke. Oh my!

Every 2 hours last night, Jake got up screaming. Last night he had macaroni and cheese with peas and carrots. But if you went into his room last night, you would certainly know that because little cubes of carrot and tiny round peas were making a repeat performance.

4 pajama changes, 3 bedding changes and 1 pajama change for me (I was the lucky recipient of one of the peas and carrot showers)

Shampoodle by Joan Holub Review & Giveaway

I have always had a love of reading and I attribute that to my mom who always read to me when I was younger. I intend on making sure that my children learn how to read as soon as possible. We have read to the boys practically since they have been born and they already choose to “read” books instead of play with toys. So when the author, Joan Holub, contacted me to review a couple of her childrens

Take Me Back Tuesday – Tortuga

How do you play along?We all have tons of photos from the days before the digital camera. I figure if I just scan a few each week, eventually I will get them all safely into my computer. But you don't need a scanner to participate - Just find a photo that takes

Don’t Leave Home Without it! Munchie Mug Giveaway

Life is so much easier because I have found Munchie Mugs. As my title suggests, we do not leave the house without our Munchie Mugs. This is one of the reasons I continue to do this blog, it is really worth all the work when you get an opportunity to share a great product like this. Don’t tell the makers of this product, but I would pay way more than $15.95 for these. Great for any child who can
