Little Tikes Pillow Racer Lady Bug Review

My kids adore ride-on toys, especially ones mom will let them ride in the house on the hard wood. We have another brand ride on, but with two kids wanting to ride at the same time we welcomed a second. When our Pillow Racer came in the mail I couldn’t get the photos taken quick enough for their liking. This fun riding toy can be used as a cuddly stuffed animal and pillow! Ride it, race it, love it! The stable base and easy-to-grip handle make … [Read more...]

Joovy 4×4 Ride On | Review

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. That’s when the Joovy 4x4 Ride-On steps in. When my box arrived I was in total amazement that a ride-on could come in such a compact box. I initially thought that maybe I was sent the incorrect item. But, as you can see... the box did contain … [Read more...]

Spring Home Makeover | Liftmaster 8550G Elite Series Belt Drive Garage Door Opener Review

Spring Home Makeover with Liftmaster 8550G Garage Door Opener   We purchased our home about ten years ago. It was almost three years old at the time, so our existing garage door opener was at least thirteen years old. I was beginning to worry about it a little, as it seemed to be getting louder and louder. We had gotten to the point that we would leave the garage door open if we knew we’d have to leave during nap time because it … [Read more...]

You can see in the trail run photo below, he has a brace … [Read more...]

#WIN Spring Styles At The Children’s Place Review | $50 gc #GIVEAWAY | ends 5/1 | #rafflecopter

Spring Styles At The Children’s Place Recently I had the kids put on a fashion show for me. Not a fashion show of new clothing, but their clothes from last spring and summer. They love to do this every season and we decide what to keep and what’s too small. Our fashion show this season created a nice big “garage sale” pile and a much smaller keep pile. 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).

I had my greatest success with a double, so when my sister in law informed me that she exclusively breastfed her daughter her entire first year because her pump didn’t work for her, I … [Read more...]
