Last year my daughters received an awesome gift from Portable North Pole which my oldest daughter still talks about all the time. A video recording from Santa Claus made their excitement for the holiday season carry over to this year as well. When the folks over at Portable North Pole asked to join forces again and bring your children some magic this year! What I love most about the Portable North Pole Santa message is how real Santa is once ...

Shopping for the hubby at a newly updated #RadioShack store! (sponsored) #MC
Living in NYC during the holidays is unlike anything else. The smells from the pretzels carts tied in with the chilly weather and amazing seasonal decor is sure to put anyone in the holiday spirit. Last weekend I headed over to Lord & Taylor to show my daughter the beautiful holiday window display. Just a few blocks away we found ourselves in front of RadioShack on 42nd Street and decided to do some holiday shopping for the hubby with the ...
15 minutes of me time! #Graco15ForMe
Many new moms can't imagine putting their newborn down for a second. After meeting your little bundle, you want to spend as much snuggle time as possible together. I was like this with both my girls, but eventually I knew the dishes had to get done, dinner had to get on the table, and mama needed a shower! Placing your baby down in a safe AND comfortable place is easy when you are looking at the Graco Little Lounger. Whether your baby just ...
Heading to Best Buy for my Holiday List! #bbyHoliday13
The holiday season is in full swing and you know you are making your list and checking it twice! I bet your list consists of toys and electronics for the majority of the people included - mine definitely is. The kids want toys and electronics, and the hubby would love some new electronics (okay, okay.. and toys too- he's a big kid anyway!) So this year I know where I am going to tackle most of my shopping list - Best Buy! They have everything ...

Family Movie Night With the HP Envy Rove 20 #HPFamilyTime
Once upon a time, my hubby and I use to watch streamed movies on my 13.3 inch laptop computer. No, seriously. We would watch movies TOGETHER on a tiny screen. Why? Because we couldn't stream to our TV. There was never a comfortable position and the picture was not the best quality. My laptop didn't like it much either- it would easily overheat, make a lot of noise, and protest the entire time that we shouldn't be watching movies on it. And then ...
Ornaments, crafts, and lights, Oh My!
The holidays are almost here and I just can't wait to see my daughters' faces when the see what the big guy brought them this year. It's never hard to get into the spirit when you have children to light up your holiday. Ever since my oldest daughter was able to understand and enjoy the holiday, decorating the house has become so much more fun. With a 4 year old, there are a lot of expectations when it comes to holiday decorating- lots of colors, ...
Saying Thanks With Hickory Farms #HickoryTradition. Enter to Win a Gift Basket! (#Giveaway)
This the season for hostess gifts! As a hostess of our annual family Thanksgiving dinner, I can tell you that I don't expect anyone to bring anything along with them, but I guess a small gift is inevitable. I never show up to someone's house empty handed and I'm sure those who come to my home may feel the same way. I've never been disappointed with a hostess gift simply because I don't expect anything and I am grateful for having everyone ...
