My youngest daughter has fallen hard over Minnie Mouse and the entire crew from the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. She simply cannot get enough, from the time she wakes up in the morning to falling asleep watching her favorite character, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse is always on her mind. I can't complain, there are many lessons to be learned with the famous mouse, which helped my oldest learn her letters, numbers, colors, shapes and more! The best part is ...

Healthy Oral Habits with #ColgateTotal #sponsored
Your oral health is a big part of your overall health. It's not just about cavities and plaque buildup in your mouth, but also how these factors relate to your body as a whole. Having a few family members that are diabetics, I see the struggle they go through each and every day. From watching what they eat to being careful about what over the counter medications they can use without causing interactions, they have to watch every single step they ...
It’s Hot Cocoa Season! Enter to Win a Box of K-Cups! #MC #Sponsored
I can't live without my warm beverages in the winter. Whether it is a warm cup of chai tea or some rich hot cocoa, I always find a moment of "me time" in the perfect cup. Last year I came across Dark Chocolate Hot Cocoa from Grove Square and there was no turning back. I love chocolate but it has to be the RIGHT chocolate, and it always has to be dark, so when I found a dark hot cocoa, I knew it was made just for chocolate snobs like me! The dark ...
Shark Rocket Vacuum Review #Holiday 2013
During our moving process I purged A LOT of things, including an old bulky vacuum and a DustBuster. My husband fought tooth and nail to keep our dirty old DustBuster but I wasn't having it. It smelled. It was hard to clean. The battery lasted for 53 seconds. It was time for it to go. The vacuum we got rid of was a bagged vacuum that smelled like something was burning each time we turned it on. I needed to find something that better suited our ...
Things To Consider Before Banking Your Child’s Cord Blood #CordBlood411 #MC #sponsored
Cord Blood banking seems to be a hot topic these days. Should you or shouldn't you bank your child's cord blood is the big question. I was caught in the same web of questions when I was pregnant with my first, and decided to bank her cord blood. I knew the chances of her using her own cord blood down the road were slim, but I thought that maybe someone in the family could benefit. With my second child it was a no-brainer; we were going to bank ...

Duracell has been a trusted name in battery power for decades, so it's only natural they have evolved to keep you from losing power on your favorite mobile devices.

Trying Something New with Pompeian Grapeseed Oil
Growing up in a European family, the only oil we really used was olive oil. My mom would always warn me that olive oil burns quickly and isn't ideal for frying, but I loved the taste of olive oil so much that I would still take the chance and cook with it anyway. I won't lie- I constantly set off the alarm while cooking with it, and sometimes the flavor of olive oil was just too heavy. I started experimenting with other cooking oils but was ...
Sleep With Me Cradle Doll by Nenuco #HolidayGiftGuide2013
Both of my daughters are nurturers. My oldest loves baby animals and spends many hours pretend playing animal hospital. My youngest loved baby dolls. Where ever we go she seeks out realistic looking dolls to cradle and hold. She shares her food, bottles, and pacifiers with her baby dolls and will often watch tv and rock her baby. She started this when she was just 12 months old, which just proves to me that even babies know that babies need to be ...
