This post brought to you by Rhapsody. All opinions are my own. My husband, oldest daughter, oldest son and myself have all been using streaming music subscriptions for quite some time. I was just saying the other day that I couldn't imagine living without it now. Up until this point, though, my two youngest have just had to listen to what the grown ups chose... or at least put in a request hoping we'll play their song in between … [Read more...]

Britax Clicktight Limited Edition Car Seat
A sample of the BRITAX Clicktight Limited Edition Car Seat was provided for review purposes. All opinions are my own. There is nothing more stressful than coming out of the hospital without a car seat secured properly in your car. For me, getting out of the hospital was a huge relief because I felt very claustrophobic and just wanted to go home! We hit a road block because we had to make sure the car seat was secured before we left. I hate to … [Read more...]

After a small talk with my husband, we decided that maybe having a small pet like a fish could help broaden their worlds as well as help them learn more about responsibility. … [Read more...]
Back to Sleep with Sealy | Tempur-Pedic Pillow #GIVEAWAY | [CLOSED]
Sample received. All opinions are my own. A couple of weeks ago I shared a list of 7 things to do to help transition your children into a back to school / back to sleep routine. Being a teacher on the first day of school really opened my eyes on how important sleep was for my students. That's why I am so strict with my own children a few weeks before school starts. It's always so hard to go to bed earlier and earlier, but it really does help … [Read more...]

I’m Saving Money on PatPat | It’s a Shopping Site on an App
I'm Saving Money on PatPat | It's a Shopping Site on an App This post brought to you by PatPat. All opinions are 100% my own. I have been a bargain shopper so long now that's it is an ingrained habit to find the lowest price on anything that I am thinking of purchasing. I often times will jump from website to website before buying, often times purchasing from "shopping sites" because the discounts are insane. I recently ran across a new … [Read more...]
