Do you attend a lot of holiday parties? We do. Every weekend, starting from the weekend after Thanksgiving, right up until New Years Day, we have an event, and sometimes two or three. When my hubby and I first started attending these events, I would always try to pull together the perfect hostess gift- usually a basket full of cheese, crackers, candy, or something for the home. Then I realized what the hostesses really wanted was wine! Yes, you ...

The Perfect “Road Trip” Car #kiasocialclub @Kia
Content and/or other value provided by our partner, Kia Motors This coming February my husband and I are planning to take our family on a road trip down the east coast. We will be renting a car for this trip and have so many options to choose from, I was a little overwhelmed at first. After thinking of our family's needs, and crazy fuel prices, I decided a crossover vehicle would be best for us. One of the cars at the top of my list is the ...
Holiday Travelling Tips #kiaholidays @kia
Content and/or other value provided by our partner, Kia Motors Do you travel for the holidays? We generally do not travel too far for the holidays, as most of our family is here in NY. The farthest we've travelled when I was younger was probably New Jersey or Pennsylvania to visit extended family. Thankfully we've never had to take a plane ride anywhere for the holidays because I imagine that would be a little too hectic for me! Preparing for ...
Crocs Women’s and Children’s Footwear {Holiday Gift Guide}
I really couldn't wait for cooler weather. I was so done with the summer, the flip flops, the 100 degree weather... oh, and the $180 Con Edison bill from running the air conditioner all day long. I was ready for sweaters, snuggling with my babies and a warm cup of hot cocoa. I was also ready for boots, and it's no wonder when you see the adorable styles Crocs has come out with this season! I can't believe on our girl's night trip to the city ...
Jamie James Cellfolio Review
When I leave the house, I want to carry as few things as possible. With two kids, this may seem like a huge challenge, but over the past two years I have almost perfected this routine. For my kids, I need a change of clothes for my tot (who tends to vomit in the car) and two changes of clothes for my newborn (who has leaked through every brand of diaper we have tried.) For myself, I just need my keys, phone, and credit cards. I don't often carry ...
Fresh Produce Clothing Review
Finding things to wear this summer has been a bit of a challenge. I had a baby about 3 months ago and my body isn't quite ready for my pre-pregnancy clothes. Along with not fitting into my old clothes, this summer has been unbearably hot in NYC, so I've chosen to stick with roomy sundresses to stay comfortable. It's great that cotton beach dresses don't have to be frumpy, and can even be fun and chic. Fresh Produce has a lot of fun, functional ...
Post-Partum Shapewear Solutions: Belly Bandit Mother Tucker Nursing Tank
No matter how much or how little weight you gained during pregnancy, the post-partum body still has some work to do before returning to it's original shape. After you have your baby, you may feel that your abdomen now feels "empty" and rightfully so- for the past 40 weeks you had someone else taking up space in there and now that this little person is out, your belly may feel loose. It's not just your skin that may look different in appearance, ...
Changing Diapers in Style with LillyBit Diaper Clutch! (+Giveaway!)
We all know there is nothing glamorous about changing diapers. As a mom, I'm always looking for the most functional diaper bags that also look stylish, but this doesn't always happen. You either have to sacrifice style for functionality or vise versa. I, personally, try to pack as light as possible when I am out and about because I find diaper bags to be cumbersome when chasing after a baby. Basic necessities: A diaper, wipes, and something for ...
