Give Back to Your Community Without Spending a Dime!
How do you prepare your child for back to school? My little one may be attending her first year of pre-k this upcoming September. I realize I should have had a more definitive answer considering it is August and school starts in less than a month! I guess I'm not sure if I'm ready to send her yet or not, she is only turning 3 so it is not mandatory for her to attend school, I just though the social aspect of it would be great for her. This ...

Your favorite summer photo can win you a trip to the Bahamas!
Ah, the amazing technology of digital cameras. You can take 500 pictures at one event and not have to worry about wasting film. The downside? Weeding through those 500 pictures to find the perfect ones. I just went through this a few days ago. I thought that since my new baby is two months old, maybe it was time to finally get some pictures printed up of her. I had about 1,000 photos to print and tried to narrow it down to 100. Or maybe 300. ...

Usually, around the holidays, I reach out to my friends and family and request donation items for our local woman's and children's ...
Summer is Here! Get off the couch and go play outside!
I'll admit- the past few months I've been the ultimate couch potato- pregnancy kicked my butt and as a result, my toddler didn't get to do much until my husband came home from work. This was a different routine from what she was use to since we were previously very active and frequented the park a few times a week. When weather didn't permit park days, we had indoor playdates or mommy and me classes. I try to keep my toddler active because she is ...
