This blog post is part of a paid SocialMoms and Mott's blogging program. The opinions and ideas expressed here are my own. What my children eat and drink is always a concern of mine. I read labels and I try my best to purchase “real” food and avoid artificial sweeteners. I also limit my children’s sugar intake (my kids are sweet enough without it). I am not perfect by any means and I have been known to allow the occasional indulgence, but … [Read more...]

Oldies But Goodies on Netflix #StreamTeam
This post brought to you by Netflix. All opinions are my own. It’s sounds silly, but I get a weird sense of joy when my children enjoy older shows that I used to watch when I was little. I grew up with shows like Saved By The bell and Family Ties. Jem and Strawberry Shortcake were a couple of my Saturday morning favorites. Watching tv was the perfect opportunity to get close. Snuggling with my Nanny was a favorite pass time of … [Read more...]

Suave Professionals Natural Infusion | #WIN a Trip to Santa Barbara
This post brought to you by Lunchbox. All opinions are my own. My hair needs all the help it can get. When I was little I would always get comments on how thick, shiny and strong it looked. Nowadays, I punish it endlessly with heat, gels, hairspray, highlights... the whole nine yards. On the “right” day, you can see the breakage everywhere. Whatever the day, I can tell my hair is tons thinner, less shiny and not near as strong as … [Read more...]
Dove Advanced Care Deoderant with NutriumMoisture | $2 OFF Coupon
This post brought to you by Lunchbox. All opinions are my own. The armpit is one of the most hated, underappreciated and overlooked body parts ever.

Did you know that 36% of what you remove while shaving is skin and 64% is hair? Pretty crazy, … [Read more...]
