Do you have a Lalaloopsy fan in your life? My little girl jumped on the Lalaloopsy bandwagon last year when she started school and was introduced to Lalaloopsy from classmates. Once the show came on Nick Jr, the excitement for Lalaloopsy grew bigger as she was able to identify with the character. Lalaloopsy is a fun character who comes to life after she is sewn (she's a doll.) If you've ever seen Coraline, there's a few similarities between them, ...

Fun, Cute, and Cozy with #HALOSleepSack at Pottery Barn!
Both my daughters wore HALO SleepSacks from the very beginning. When the weather started to get cooler following the birth of my first daughter, I needed a way to safely keep her warm. Blankets were out of the question because I was afraid she would end up moving and having the blanket over her face. Once I discovered HALO SleepSacks, there was no going back. They were exactly what I was looking for and came in various sizes and levels of warmth ...
Pinypon Toys Know How to Party!
When it comes to toys, my daughter needs things that are always changing, otherwise she gets bored. Downloading free apps on the iPad has been an amazing tool at keeping her entertained, but imaginative play is just as important, if not more important at this age. We discovered Pinypon last year at a play date we hosted, and this is one toy my daughter always seems to go back to. She loves that she can change her character's hair, clothing, and ...
A Comfortable Holiday Stay At Hampton Hotels #HamptonHoliday #sponsored
Christmas is just two weeks away and it's time to start prepping your home for guests! A few years ago my hubby and I had his relatives from Greece stay with us in our two bedroom apartment in the city. It was nice to have company over but things started going wrong. One of the guys would stay out late at night without any means of contacting him. Then our air mattress deflated and wouldn't work. It was a mess. Our guests ended up on the ...
Give the gift of coffee this season and enter to win a Nescafe Dolce Gusto Genio! @DolceGustoUS #Giveaway #MC
Everyone that knows me online and offline knows that I love my coffee. I'm not a "give me any type of coffee" person either; it's got to be a perfect roast, at the right temperature. The way I take my coffee varies by the minute, and always reflects how I feel. The spunky, energetic, comfortable "me" loves a good iced coffee with a hint of sugar and milk. The cold-weather "me" that needs comfort likes a piping hot coffee with a few splashes of ...

I love that with all the various cultures around here, people keep their roots and ...
Enter To Win a Cold Weather Survival Kit! #Giveaway
The weather outside officially tells us it's winter. Right before the snow falls and the really frigid temperatures hit, I "winterize" my car by checking the fluids, making sure my tire pressure is good, and wax the exterior to protect the paint from the salt that is on the roads when it snows. I also place a snow cleaning tool in my car along with some cat litter- a little trick my parents taught me to help create traction if the car gets ...
Safe Baby Wearing with Boba #freedomtogether
Follow A Time Out for Mommy's board Baby Wearing on Pinterest.About a week after I had my first baby, I got daring and decided to put her in a baby carrier and take her for a walk. At the time, I knew very little about baby wearing and the community behind it. Apparently there was a whole world of baby wearers out there, and they had lots of opinions on what was right and what was wrong. I will get to that later on, but now I want to address my ...
