April is Financial Literacy for Kids Month | Use An Online Job Chart At My Job Chart!

MyJobChart.com, an online chore chart was designed to teach young people the concept of responsibility, work ethic and the value of money by giving them a way to earn points for completing their chores.

SAFESKIN Kids Sport Wrap Blogger Challenge | Sport Some Color & [CLOSED Giveaway]

Guardsman Wood Polish | Stop Cleaning & Start Caring For Your Furniture | #GIVEAWAY

Our first stop for new clothes was The Children's Place. I love that they have the latest … [Read more...]

Ameda Purely Yours Ultra Double Electric Breast Pump

Ameda Purely Yours Ultra Double Electric Breast Pump I have breastfed four children now for a combined total of 46 months (3 years 10 months).
