Rubbermaid 2-in-1 Recycler Recycling in our city is mandatory. Well, paying for recycling is. We figure if we have to pay, then I guess we’ll play. Fortunately for us our recycling program is a one sort one... meaning we put everything into one container and we’re done with it. Our main issue is having an adequate container to recycle in. With a family of six and three of us home all day long, we product a lot of waste. Rubbermaid heard our … [Read more...]

Joovy 4x4 Ride On With spring finally here to stay, the kids and I have been trying to spend more time outside. They love to ride their Joovy Bicycoo, but sometimes they feel the need for speed.

But, as you can see... the box did contain … [Read more...]

by 5 Comments
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).

Spring Home Makeover with Loft Beds by ZooStores.com Recently I’ve noticed how cluttered Emma’s room has become.

ClosetMaid knew just what we needed and sent a 15 cube organizer and a stackable 2 drawer organizer for our review. There were several shoe … [Read more...]
Mutsy Easyrider Umbrella Stroller Review
by 7 Comments
When I was pregnant and began shopping for strollers, my husband and I didn’t put much emphasis on the umbrella stroller purchase. I thought the travel system stroller would be our most used and that is where we should focus on the features and money. As my children grew up and started to become independent toddlers, the umbrella stroller started to become our more “go to” stroller. You tend to downsize on a lot of things when the kids get older … [Read more...]
