Family movie night has become an important event in our household.  It probably happens once a month, but this time with a little twist.  I was off at a Dance Studio Bunco Fundraiser for while the hubster watched a few of the studio youngsters.  Added bonus, we had samples of Gaslamp popcorns to feed these hungry munchkins.

Our friends at Gaslamp sent us a three pack of their delicious popcorn to sample: Kettle Corn, White Cheddar Corn and Cinnamon Caramel.

Book Review: Frozen Books For All Ages

Product review post graphicLike the rest of the preschool to elementary school female population, my princess is quite obsessed with the movie Frozen.  I have to admit, I do love the music as well as the movie, so I don’t quite mind the fact she plays the sound track or watches the movie daily.  Now that she is into story telling, she has the opportunity to enjoy the movie in print with Frozen Books.

Frozen Books

We’ve recently had the opportunity to review these popular books and my daughter is in heaven!  She loves sitting down and telling me a story based on the photos since she can’t quite read yet.  With this new Frozen library of books, she will be able to grow into an amazing reader with them.

Product Review: Neat Cheeks | @NeatCheeks

Product review post graphic

I think my little man has issues with getting filthy dirty.  It must be my fault!  I constantly wiped him up whenever he had something on his face or hands when he was a baby. Last night we had ribs for dinner and Handsome Boy couldn’t fathom eating meat off of the bone, let alone getting his fingers dirty while eating. The Princess – well, she just gobbled it up, getting barbeque sauce everywhere.  Neat Cheeks came to the rescue, cleaning her up with ease, without irritating her face.

Book Review: Curious Critters 2

I was recently given the opportunity to do a review on a beautiful book called Curious Critters 2.  Award-winning author and photographer, David FitzSimmons, showcases his unique approach to animal portraits.

Instead of finding animals in exotic locations, David photographed common animals—many found in your own backyard.  He placed them against plain, white backgrounds, producing detailed close-up images that are simply incredible.

Time For A Big Girl Bed, Mattress Shopping with Sit ‘n Sleep

Sponsored PostSo I was just thinking the other day about how time is just flying with my munchkins.  The Princess will be celebrating her Fabulous Five birthday soon, and we need to start planning!  With that big milestone comes a big purchase, one Grammie has promised her for a few years – A Big Girl Bed.  So this week we headed off to our local Sit ‘n Sleep to see what is available.

Sit n Sleep Store Front

When I was pregnant, my mother in law felt it important that the kids each had their own bed, no hand me downs from each other or anyone else.  She selected a convertible model that went from crib to toddler bed, then full bed.  Now that she is turning 5, the hunt is on for the right “Big Girl Bed”.

At our local Sit ‘n Sleep, we spoke with one of the sales ladies that we just loved.  Norma was very helpful in guiding us to exactly what we were looking for as well as our concerns regarding The Princess’ dust mite allergy.
