Take Me Away…..

On a windy day like today… it makes me think of flying kites. Anyone want to be on the other end of this one? (My husband ran across this while out and about yesterday. See how tiny that man is on the right hand corner?) For some reason the song “Take Me Away” keeps running through my head. … [Read more...]

Weekly Weigh In: Weeks 21 & 17 #NSNation

It’s been 21 weeks on Nutrisystem for myself and 17 weeks for Kaytlin. This week was pretty uneventful for both of us. We have been (im)patiently waiting for the weather to warm up and and also for our elliptical to finally ship (April 1). Now we are waiting for it to arrive! Confession time here. Friday and Saturday I was a pretty good girl, but I had a couple of bowls of homemade popcorn at the end of the day. Sunday… well, we went to the … [Read more...]

Potty Training STINKS!

Potty training stinks, and I mean literally! Why do I say this you ask? I just finished cleaning poop off a butt (too busy playing to take a minute to sit on the potty chair five feet from where he was playing) and changing the sheets/starting a load of laundry that includes a comforter.

Pier 1 Helps Make Spring More Inviting

This post brought to you by Pier 1. All opinions are 100% mine. It’s been a long and dreary winter, but today has me thinking SPRING! What better way to enjoy the weather than with some new outdoor furniture, right? I’ve been sifting through the Pier 1 website, daydreaming of changing things up on our back porch a bit. Our current outdoor set has seen better days. I was thinking that maybe a wicker set might be just … [Read more...]

#WIN Nutrisystem 10 Days of Fresh Frozen Select Foods GIVEAWAY [CLOSED]

I have been on the Nutrisystem program for five months now. I liked the program so much, my 18 year old daughter joined and she has been on the program for four months now. I have lost 30.8 pounds and Kaytlin has lost 32.4. Between the two of us we have lost a small child! There are so many more benefits of being on the Nutrisystem program than the pounds lost (as wonderful as those may be!). We are learning how to eat proper portions, what … [Read more...]

#WIN Sanuk Children’s Flip Flops Review & ANY Sanuk Shoe GIVEAWAY [CLOSED]
