I never thought my kids would become completely obsessed with Despicable Me. It started off as a lazy Saturday about a year ago. Despicable Me happened to be on TV. There was something about the adorable 3 girls and Gru, but the Minions took the cake. My girls were hooked and there was no going back. They were minion obsessed. Fast forward a year later and they couldn't wait to see Despicable Me 2. All over NYC, the taxi cabs sported the ...

$100 Amex Gift Card Flash Giveaway!
Tis the season of joy, presents, family, and the dreaded migraine. I just got back from my neurologist visit and she mentioned that this is a heightened migraine season. She sees a lot of patients this time of year because many of them have stressed induced migraines which are most likely due to the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. She also mentioned that many people also eat their triggers, meaning any foods that will trigger migraines ...
Share it All With AppSocial
Social networking has become the center of this generation. We use social networking to keep in touch, share thoughts, ideas, and even shop. The world of social networking has made it easier to keep in touch stay in the know. I'll confess, I get most of my news from social media, otherwise I would be completely lost in a world full of Nick Jr. and Disney Jr. Two years ago I felt like I was the last to jump on the bandwagon of smartphones and ...
Crossing Things Off the Holiday List with Staples… That Was Easy!
The clock is counting down the days, minutes, and hours left until Christmas. If you are like my hubby, then you are walking around ten days before Christmas asking everyone what the rush is. He doesn't actually shop until December 23rd or 24th.

Get Into the Holiday Spirit With Apps from the Portable North Pole #Sponsored
My oldest daughter love Christmas, and who can blame her? She can have Christmas all year long- the colorful tree, the music, and anything Christmas themed she will automatically gravitate towards. When it was 92 degrees out in the summer, she was playing a reindeer game on the iPad. When all the kids around her wanted Princess or Pirate themed birthday parties, she wanted a Rudolph birthday party. In September. So, when I asked her if she wanted ...
Come Over and Play With Peppa Pig and Friends!
Have you heard? Peppa Pig is all the rage amongst preschoolers! Everyone has their favorite character, Suzy Sheep being my preschooler's fave, and George Pig being my toddler's favorite. I always thought that Peppa Pig was a "just for fun" TV show as opposed to an educational show, but last month my oldest daughter said something that completely blew my mind, and when I asked her if she learned that in school, she replied that she actually heard ...
Disney Frozen Character Dolls
No matter how old your kids are, chances are they have seen or heard of the new Disney Movie FROZEN. My 4 year old was psyched to see a preview of this movie a few weeks ago, but we sat in a ton of traffic and ended up missing the preview. I'm hoping to take her during Christmas vacation to finally see Frozen, but until then I have to trust everyone's opinion when they say it's one movie you HAVE to see! Now that kids know all about the new ...
