I want to recycle- I really do! But in our neck of the woods our recycling company is so darn picky it is down right impossible to recycle! When we first moved here, I recycled everything I could and stood inside in disbelief as the guys got out of the recycling truck, threw all the cardboard back in my yard- and took the rest! I was left with a huge mess to clean up, and cardboard I did not know what to do with! I gave up on recycling after that. The two main things we end up throwing away that can be recycled are cardboard and bottles. Our recycling company will pick up bottles, but the cardboard … [Read more...]
Wee Squeak Light Pink Peony Sandals
April 12, 2012 by 57 Comments
I talked a bit earlier this week about fun shoes. In my search for super fun shoes, I found shoes that- get this... Squeak when your child walks!! These amazing Wee Squeak shoes are a beautiful pale pink patent leather, with white top stitching. There is a bit of extra padding for comfort at the ankle to prevent blisters. The closure is easy on and off with a simple Velcro closure! The soles are made of rubber and the heel contains a squeaker, that makes the shoes squeak! (the squeaker can be removed if you prefer quiet shoes!) I thought Carlee's very favorite thing about the shoes was going … [Read more...]

April 12, 2012 by 13 Comments
Shoes in my house are aplenty. However pairs of shoes never seem to be able to be found, seems like we always have only one of each shoe each time we are ready to go somewhere! I finally decided the only way to get the kids to keep track of their own shoes was to get them shoes that they actually loved and picked out themselves. I searched and searched for a shoe that my kids would like, but finding a 'fun' shoe is not easy; not easy at all! That is until I found the kids Croc shoes! The brand new Crocs Chameleons are magic shoes that change colors in the sun. Using exclusive breakthrough … [Read more...]

Every little girl wants to grow up and fall in love just like Cinderella did. Ok maybe not with the evil step sisters or the crazy step mom, but you get what I mean. Since Carlee is only three, right now the closest she can get to being like Cinderella is to dress like her- and boy does she love to! The Deluxe Princess Cinderella Dress is made of a beautiful light blue crushed velvet top that has a slight stretch and is accented with silver trims. The sleeves are made of a soft shimmery silver fabric for extra glimmer. The skirt is made of ultra soft china silk, with an overlay of sheer light blue … [Read more...]
Bananagrams

I have always been a cross wordlover so when I saw and then read the instructions to Bananagrams I knew we had to try it out! Bananagrams is pretty easy to play! All players race against each other to build crossword grids and use all their letter tiles. There's no turn-taking; it all happens at once and it’s a race to the finish. No matter how great you are at word games, or how many you have beat- Bananagrams is going to drive you absolutely bananas! I love that it requires no pencil, paper or board so it can be played at any second. Plus it comes in a small portable banana shaped pouch. It says … [Read more...]
My Fancy Princess: Deluxe Belle Dress

One of my very favorite fairy tales growing up was Beauty and the Beast. So I was quite excited when Carlee picked Belle as one of her favorite Disney Princesses and asked me to get her a dress to wear to Walt Disney World. My Fancy Princess has a huge assortment of Disney Princess Dresses and I fell in love with their Snow White toddler dress around Christmas time. The Deluxe Princess Belle Dress Up Costume seemed like something Carlee would love so we brought it with us on our last family vacation! The dress was so beautiful, we got compliments each and every day she wore it. This is a superb … [Read more...]
Favorite NutriSystem Breakfasts
April 8, 2012 by Leave a Comment
I've told you all about my favorite Nutrisystem deserts and my favorite Nutrisystem dinners- this week is my least favorite meal of the day, breakfast. You get 28 dinners on both the Men's and Woman's program! Breakfast for me is my least favorite meal, period. Even not on Nutrisystem there is just something about breakfast foods that I just do not like. For me to eat breakfast it needs to not taste like normal breakfast food! I know, I'm odd! The Nutrisystem Blue Berry Muffin and Banana Nut Muffin are the perfect 'not to breakfasty' breakfast food. I zap them in the microwave for 15 seconds … [Read more...]
