If you have a child under the age of 12, then you might have a Sofia the First fanatic on your hands. My husband's friend who has two young sons ages 4 and 1 complains that when he walks in the door, his boys are glued to the TV for Sofia. There is something about her that kids love. I know my youngest daughter loves the music and I love the positive messages that are expressed in the show. My oldest daughter is a self-proclaimed Sofia fanatic. ...

Shutterfly Photo Story App Review + Giveaway!
I know I'm not the only one that is guilty of taking adorable pictures of my kids and then doing nothing with them. I take pictures with whatever device I have on hand at the moment, which is usually my cell phone, although I love the quality my DSLR offers. On the go I bring along a compact camera, but for the most part, I use my phone. Thankfully there is a app that allows me to easily upload photos from my cell phone to Shurtterfly without ...
Have a #TickFreeFall With PetArmor #sponsored
It's official! The summer is over and back to school season is about to start next week. You've shopped for the youngest members of your family and made sure they were fully prepared for the new school year, but don't forget your pets. No, they aren't going to school, but they can still pick up fleas, ticks, and other bloodsuckers well into the fall season. Although my cat never made the move with me and ended up staying at my mom's house, I ...
Looking for a Compact Car? Check Out the 2013 #KiaRio! #DriveSTI
I've always been a compact car kinda girl, especially living in NYC. Parking is just easier when you have a smaller car, and it's also easier to get in and out of traffic with a compact car. Since having kids, however, I've had to trade in my compact car for a more baby-gear-friendly vehicle that can accommodate our ever growing need for space. My husband still drives a compact car and doesn't wish to upgrade to a bigger car any time soon. He ...
Big Sand Breakfast by HABA
6:30am......”Mommy, is it morning????”. My 4 year-old is always happy to get out of bed when we have an exciting day ahead of us. If it was a school day I'd be dragging him out of bed at 7:15 while he insists that he's still tired and needs to rest more. But today we're going to the beach with my in-laws who had just arrived from Italy the night before. We're new to the neighborhood so we're still getting our bearings. And thankfully we have ...

DIY Thank You Cards. Enter To Win an HP Envy 4500 Printer! #HPFamilyTime #sponsored
When it comes to birthday party planning for my kids, I've always taken charge of creating my own invitations and thank you notes. I'm not very crafty or creative, but once we settle on a theme everything else seems to fall in place. For my daughter's 4th birthday, she chose a Hawaiian them, complete with a luau, tikis, and fun pink and line green colors. I designed her 4th birthday party invitations and had them printed, while blank Thank You ...
Spending Time With The Family. $50 Gift Card Giveaway! #sharewhatsgood #sponsored
It's not until you become a parent that you realize all the little moments are really the big moments in life. I realized it when I gave birth to my first child and I barely had a minute to blink and I was already planning her first birthday. Then, after my second baby came along, it really hit me like a ton of bricks. I couldn't remember a lot of things from my first baby through various stages that I was now reliving with our newest member of ...
