Every time I talk to people about children's shoes, I always tell the story my mom told me about growing up with Stride Rite shoes. You see, 30+ years ago my mom knew the importance of supportive footwear for developing toddlers. This is why she insisted on always getting her children shoes from Stride Rite, which were fitting specifically for their (our) size. There was someone available in the Stride Rite shop to assist her with finding the ...

Warning: Tomodachi Life for Nintendo 3DS is Addicting! @BestBuy #NintendoatBestBuy
This past weekend my oldest daughter and I were very busy.... playing Tomodachi Life on the Nintendo 3DS. To be completely honest, I hogged the game until I got a good feel for it and then I let her play, thinking she would probably get bored of it since she can't read yet and it has a lot of instructions. I was wrong. We are both totally hooked. Here's how it works: You create a person which can come from your Mii account or someone new ...
HALO Bassinest Swivel Sleeper Review and #Giveaway!
When I became a parent for the first time, I thought I had a clear understanding of what I needed, what I wanted, and what wasn't really necessary for the first few months after bringing home baby. I knew a pack n play, car seat, and swing were a must. A crib was a no-brainer, but a bassinet? Did I really need a bassinet for baby? I didn't think it was necessary and kept the pack n play next to my bed instead. I should also mention we were living ...
Finding Comfort and Value at @Brylane_Home
This is a pretty busy week for those parents sending their kids off to college. Setting up dorms, buying supplies, and making sure your college student is as comfortable as possible in their new quarters is a parent's top priority as school starts. I've never lived in a dorm so I didn't have to worry about all the planning that went into starting a new dorm life, but I had many friends who dealt with the frenzy, confusion, and excitement that ...
Girls Can Build Castles With @Goldieblox #lookatGoldie
It's a running joke in my family that I make girls. Meaning I have two daughters, and chances are if we try again, I'm betting it will be another girl. I don't mind, really. I LOVE having girls. The tutus, the frills, adorable dresses and everything pink and purple has me reliving my own childhood through them. I wasn't a girlie girl- I was a tom boy. I loved playing with my brother's trucks and swinging barbies from the ceiling ...
Mini Babybel Cheese Are a Perfect Snack!
It's time to start thinking about what you will be packing your little ones for lunch! I guess we live in an era of over achieving parents with Pinterest at their disposal, but the new trend in school lunches is not what your mama packed for you growing up. I love the idea of bento style lunches since it gives kids a taste for a little bit of everything in a fun presentation that will make them want to try new things, or at least I hope that's ...
