Philips Norelco SensoTouch 3D 1290x Wet & Dry Electric Razor As much as my husband would love to, he just cannot grow a beard. It looks a little weird on him and just doesn’t fill in. That leaves him with the job of shaving every day. His first electric razor was a Norelco, $30 on clearance, that he loved for several years. I always giggled at him when buying replacement heads because they always ran more than the entire price of the … [Read more...]
Graco Glider Elite Gliding Swing
I think any mom will agree with me that a great baby swing is a necessity with a newborn baby. My daughter loved her swing, and as she was my second it was a life saver at times. Knowing that she was content and happy when in the swing while I took care of my oldest was important to me. That was a borrowed swing. So with this baby, my third, on the way one of my must have items on my baby list was a good swing. Graco sent us an amazing … [Read more...]

Summer in the mid-west can be downright miserable. Between the sky high 100 degree + temperatures and the staggering … [Read more...]

Avoiding Headache Triggers This Summer
Avoiding Headache Triggers This Summer I am posting this as part of a compensated Excedrin Ambassador program. All opinions are 100% my own. Summer is here and the kids are home.... what’s a parent to do? As the temperatures climb our first reaction is to retreat inside... but then the kids turn into couch potatoes or worse, start fighting. Instead, our family has set a goal to spend at least a few hours outside daily. The kids will be playing, … [Read more...]

During our time in California we were fortunate enough to have the chance to interview all of the main character actors as well as the director Sam … [Read more...]
Unreal is Candy Unjunked
Unreal is Candy Unjunked Samples were received free of charge to facilitate this review. All opinions are my own. Back in March I shared my newest (and one of my yummiest) healthier/cleaner option finds... Unreal’s Unjunked Candy. I gladly stuffed my kids Easter baskets with Unreal candy and watched happily as they enjoyed every last bite of it. I loved that my kids could still enjoy candy without the added junk, with less sugar and with more … [Read more...]
Gelish MINI Soak Off Gel Nail Polish Gel Manicure System
Gelish MINI Soak Off Gel Nail Polish Gel Manicure System Back in February of this year I was invited to the red carpet premier of Oz the Great and Powerful. Although I had never had it done before, I decided that a trip to the nail salon for a gel manicure was in order for this special event. I decided to use gel because I had heard that it stayed on longer than regular polish. That was my desire, as regular nail polish tends to peel off my … [Read more...]
Boppy Nursing Pillows
Boppy Nursing Pillows Welcome to the Babys Gotta Have It! Baby Shower Event! I was recently asked to review (at not charge, all opinions are 100% my own) a Boppy Pillow.

My friends loved theirs, so with baby #3 on the way I figured I needed anything that would make my life a little easier. I was excited to see … [Read more...]
