Chances are you’ve heard of Welch’s. My favorite product of theirs besides grape juice are Welch’s Fruit Snacks. Because they come in 80 calorie bags I am able to keep them in the house without a lot of fighting. Normally if we keep big bags of anything the kids will want to eat it all in one sitting (and the adults too). With the 80 calorie bags I can limit myself and the kids.…
“Did you know that Americans today touch their cell phones more than their loved ones? NIVEA conducted a study of 1,433 men and women and found that Americans are starving for affection and human connection. The results showed that while our display of affection has diminished, our need for it has not. To help encourage a more loving America, NIVEA has declared June 20th as “PDA Day.” Why? Because it’s the first day of summer…
I love Honey Bunches of Oats so when a couple of weeks ago a package arrived with a box of the Honey Roasted flavor I thought I’d be able to keep them all to myself. Well that didn’t happen. My boys surrounded me & before I knew it we didn’t even have time to get the milk. Between the 3 of us we put a huge dent in the box & I never did get…
As most of you should know by now I’m due with my 3rd baby any day now & to tell you the truth, I haven’t’ had much fun in a while. In fact some of you know I’ve been doing a lot of complaining. The kids and I were taking occasional trips to the park or zoo but once my pregnancy passed 34 weeks I was stuck in the house the majority of the…

We’re big fans of Huggies little movers here in our household. We’ve tried just about every kind of diaper available and found the least amount of leaks for our boys with Huggies Little Movers. I’ve used them with both of them since they first came out. That’s 4 years of diapering! New Limited Edition Hawaiian Themed Diapers & Wipes Now there’s a new cute limited edition print available for the summer. Whether you’re…
“Did you know that a cruising baby in one day can take as many steps as a marathon runner in a race? The efforts that babies go to in order to overcome everyday challenges – from learning to crawl, walk or balance, to pulling themselves onto a chair or even a step – are truly world class in their effort and determination. In celebration of these amazing feats that babies undertake each and…
It was kind of ironic that we just received this DVD yesterday because I actually wanted to review & give it away for my readers. My son’s are not big fans. That was, until this week. Out of the blue my 4 year old has really started doing a lot of pretend play. On Monday much to my surprise he was a construction worker that was stopping by to fix our kitchen door.…
Thomas the tank engine, which came about over 65 years ago is still going strong. He was created by a father for his son, and today is enjoyed by families in more than 185 territories and in 30 languages. He’s a very useful engine if I do say so myself. In fact, Thomas and Friends is one of our favorite shows here at our house. We have DVD’s, books, toys,…
