The moment you find out you are pregnant, your head starts swirling with questions: Is it a boy or a girl? Who will it look like? How big will I get? What do I need for baby? It's inevitable - you will get suckered into the latest baby gadgetry solely based on it's wow factor in the store, but once you bring it home you will wonder why you thought you needed it in the first place. I wasn't immune to this trap, although the second time around I ...

Check out Shopetti and Enter To Win $125 Amex Giftcard! (#Giveaway)
There are some days that I feel that I have to shop at many stores to get what I need on my list. If you know me personally, then you know that I despise store shopping. I'm an online shopping kinda girl, but sometimes you just need to get to the stores. Today I had to pick up a gift for a child's birthday party this weekend, an outfit for myself (I live in maxi dresses in the summer and I can't keep up with the laundry) and a pair of shorts for ...
It Was a Lovely Day At Our #CadburyHighTea Party!
Last weekend my preschooler and I threw an unforgettable tea party with our closest girl friends. Having a little girl means relishing in all things girlie and having a tea party has been on my daughter's to do lost since our last one. I have to admit, as tom-boyish as I am, I enjoy the prep and the party! Since the day we chose to have our tea party was a scorcher, we decided to make it an iced-tea party and served chamomile tea to the kids ...
Things To Do At The Bronx Zoo (August 2013)
Headed to the Bronx Zoo this month? Check out their list of events in August! There are lots of fun attractions to see and great events for the kids to get involved and have some fun. I love the Bronx Zoo because you can make it an all day family event or you can take your time and see a few attractions at a time. My absolute favorite time of year to visit the Bronx Zoo is in October, when they have Boo at the Zoo and fall-themed activities for ...
A Day of Fun and Learning at the NY Aquarium!
You may have noticed the crickets here at A Time Out for Mommy. Well, there's been a lot going on at home, from the purchase of our new home to having my husband and daughter home for the summer, we've been quite busy. The bad part is that we are ALWAYS busy. The good part is that we've spent a lot of quality family time together and with the upcoming schedule-packed school year, we need this time together to have fun. Good thing I'm ...
Fisher Price SnugaBear SpaceSaver High Chair Review!
When I was pregnant with my first baby, I did a ton of research before making any baby gear purchases. I was looking for safe and functional, easy designs that would last for multiple children in gender neutral colors. Out of all my purchases, there is only one item that I was able to use for both children - the infant car seat. So, you can say that I was slightly disappointed when I had to buy new gear for baby #2. This time around I knew what I ...
Check Out KinderCare’s Open House! #TourKinderCare #ad
I've been a stay at home mom for 3 years now, but before that I was a working mom. When I was looking into child care options for my daughter, I did a ton of research. Did I want a one on one nanny? Did I mind taking her to someone's home or did I prefer to leave her in the comfort of our home? What about early childhood education centers? Did they teach or babysit? Will my child get the attention she deserves? It was overwhelming. Why shouldn't ...
