My mother tells me that I loved the taste of coffee from the time I was a toddler. It seems that my toddler has followed in my steps, because she begs me for coffee every day. My mistake. I left my cup on the window sill one day and she had a few sips. I don't think a child should be drinking coffee, but I also like to pick and choose my battles with my toddler. A few weeks ago hubby got me a coconut mocha frappuccino from Starbucks and again, my ...

Mayron’s Goods Review & #giveaway *Birthday Bash Sponsor*
Right before I became a mommy, a coworker started telling me about parabens and baby products. This was only a few months after I had purchased a gift set of a popular name in baby products for my youngest niece. I was appalled at the fact that companies would claim no responsibility to the fact that their products might actually harm a child. I started my search for natural baby products and I was excited to see that there were companies out ...
Play Doh Review and #giveaway *Birthday Bash Sponsor*
Play Doh is an ageless trend that kids and adults enjoy! My little girl got her first Play Doh set for Christmas, but she didn't really get into it until recently. Now, she plays with her Play Doh so much, she even has a table designated just for Play Doh and all the accessories we have accumulated for shaping and designing. It is not unusual for her to wake up in the morning and ask to play with her Play Doh before she is even out of bed! We ...
Quinny Zapp Xtra Review & #giveaway *Birthday Bash Sponsor*
When it comes to strollers, there are just TOO many options on the market. From high end, to low end, there is a stroller for every budget and style. I had NO clue what stroller to get when I was pregnant. The one that I have (which will remain unnamed) was from a well known, higher end company. A few months after light use, the wheels started to wobble and the seat just didn't hold it's shape. It was time to start looking for a new ...
HearthSong Review & #giveaway *Birthday Bash Sponsor*
It is easy to find your old run of the mill generic toys at any box store, but you will not find the quality and personalization options for children's gifts from these places. I recently came across HearthSong and knew it was definitely a different shopping experience. I had the opportunity to try out this unique site for myself and I decided to order my daughter a Book Rack because her books are mixed in her toy box. In order to find a book, we ...
Playskool Weebles on the Bus Review and #giveaway *Birthday Bash
For a few weeks now, my little girl has been OBSESSED with school buses. The city is always filled with school buses bringing kids to local attractions throughout the school year, and then the camps do the same during the summer. I thought at this point she would have gotten so use to seeing them everywhere, but the just recently the opposite happened: she squeals with excitement each time she sees that big yellow bus! It was only appropriate ...
UV Skinz #giveaway *Birthday Bash Sponsor*
We all know how important wearing sunscreen is, especially for babies and their sensitive skin. I use to put my toddler in cute bikini type swim suits, but I felt that I would constantly worry about missing a spot of skin with sunscreen. One of my friends was diagnosed with skin cancer and I was even more cautious about protecting my toddler after hearing this news. I saw other children on the beach with swim shirts on, and I needed to know more ...
Melissa and Doug Beach Toys #giveaway *Birthday Bash Sponsor*
My little girl has not been to the beach to sit in the sand and play until this year. Last year she was too young to enjoy the sand without eating it - and the only other times she has been to the beach was to play at the park. We finally had the opportunity to make it out of the city and off to the beach house for Fourth of July weekend. I'm not sure who was more excited about reviewing Melissa and Doug sand toys - me or my hubby toddler. ...
