It's been about a year since I heard of menstrual cups and I'm still not sure if they are a way of the future, or a fad. I've read that they are very popular in European countries and are growing rapidly in popularity here. I've asked a few of my friends what they thought of menstrual cups and not one of them had even heard of such a thing. It was time for an intervention! I had to call all of my closest girlfriends over to introduce them to ...

JJ Cole Collections: Hat, Mittens, & Booties {Giveaway}
Brrr! It's really getting cold out there! When my first baby was born, she was still in her infant car seat during the winter months, so it was easy to keep her warm without bulky clothing in her car seat. I used the JJ Cole BundleMe in her car seat, which kept her warm, safely. With baby #2, I estimated that she would have still been in her infant car seat this winter, but due to discomfort from her fractured clavicle, we had to switch her to ...
Bright Starts Sunnyside Safari Saucer
My baby girl is quickly growing up and exploring her surroundings. She's crawling, standing, and even taking steps while holding on to things. She doesn't like to be contained in a playpen anymore, so it was time to find her an entertainment center that would keep her happy and busy. It was a no-brainer that we would choose a Bright Starts entertainment center. I think we had more issues trying to figure out which one we ...

Some Info on Flexible Spending Accounts
Have you every heard of a Flexible Spending Account? The first time I heard of a FSA was from a colleague. She explained that she sets pre-taxed money aside from her paycheck which can then be used towards medical expenses. With the cost of healthcare on the rise, I can see the appeal to having a program set up where you spend less money for FSA-eligible expenses, such as co-pays, deductibles, and over the counter medical products. I was ...
Nickelodeon Let’s Learn: 123s & Let’s Learn: ABCs
Have you heard? You Nick Jr. favorites have come together for two new exciting releases: Let's Learn: 123s and Let's Learn: ABCs! I never had high regards for television for children before I had kids, but after watching Team Umizoomi, Dora, Blue's Clues, and more of the Nick Jr. preschool shows, I quickly realized they were like preschool on tv! I don't let my toddler watch hours of television, but when she does have some tube time, it is ...
Martha Stewart Helps Dress Up The Holidays!
Tis the season for baking! I bake all year long, but there is something so magical about baking holiday cookies with my toddler that makes the season a little warmer and sweeter. Greek holiday cookies are the norm around here, but since my toddler loves festive colors and fun characters, we use a standard butter cookie recipe that is suitable for cookie cutters. We have a huge assortment of cookie cutters and my toddler didn't want to stick to ...
Littlest Pet Shop: Little Pets, Big Adventures
My toddler loves cartoons with animals and can relate to The Littlest Pet Shop which is a series about a girl and her father who live in a city apartment right on top of a pet shop where animals have fun personalities. I'm not sure she really "gets" it at only 3, but she loves anything that has to do with animals, and the cute big-eyed creatures entertain her while mama can get some work done! The Littlest Pet Shop: Little Pets, Big ...
