For as long as I can remember I've suffered with the occasional eczema breakout. This includes mild symptoms of irritation, itching (severe) and dry/scaly skin rashes on my hands and feet. While it can be found other places on the body, those are my trouble spots especially during the dry winter months. It usually starts out as very itchy spot on the palms of my hands that when left untreated (or scratched … [Read more...]
Yesterday I was doing some blog hopping and ran into a fantastic deal that Nichol at Kiddies Corner Deals shared. I swear, this girl is costing me more money every time I visit her blog. She finds some of the best deals and I hopped on this one from The Disney Store ... Buy One Get One FREE on Plush characters. With Emma's birthday in just a month I took the opportunity to pick her up a few of her favorite characters … [Read more...]
Nearly every afternoon around 5:30-ish there's a place I go to - my sweet escape. It's not grand, tropical or even quiet but it's peaceful and if I don't forget to lock the door, it's all mine. After a day of the girls bickering, an afternoon of my son's incesent football statistics being drilled into my brain and usually a sleepless night, I like to grab a cozy bath towel, a hot cup of tea and escape to my bath … [Read more...]
I know you must be thinking, Christmas in January? huh? what? As odd as it sounds, we're still enjoying a little bit of holiday magic this month. In fact, we plan to enjoy it all year long with Disney's Yule Log DVD. Right before Christmas, we received this lovely DVD that lit up our holiday with Disney's Magical Fireplace and as it turns out, the fire log looks so cozy at night that we can't help but watch it … [Read more...]
With one kiddo at school, one at pre-school and the other taking a nap, it leaves me with some free time to clean up around the house .... or just snap random pictures around my kitchen. Don't judge me. Instagram photos are a lot more fun than scraping last night's dinner off plates and unloading the dishwasher. These are just a few of my favorite kitchen things from around my red kitchen. *My favorite plate in my … [Read more...]
Last month I was introduced to a new way to store, edit and share our precious family video memories with a Blu-ray Disc Storage System. The idea is simple and the process is easy enough for someone with little to no experience using technology. If you can turn on a computer or play a blu-ray, you can certainly take your videos from a digital file to a full feature movie on your television. So how do you take all … [Read more...]
There aren't a lot of things that get me riled up or upset to the point of blogging about it. I've had plenty of bad experiences when dealing with a brand's customer service but nothing and I mean nothing compares to what happened to me today. * SEE BOTTOM FOR UPDATES * For the past few weeks I've been thinking about replacing my lost engagement ring and finding one to match my old wedding band. I spent a lot of … [Read more...]
American Girl rang in the new year with the introduction of McKenna, a new doll and 3 book set that is sure to excite little girls all over the country. I know because I saw just how excited Kaydee was when her very own McKenna doll arrived just after Christmas. The new doll and book set shares the story of ten-year old McKenna, a girl who has always done well in school and gymnastics. When she starts 4th … [Read more...]
It has become a tradition each year to go through all of my product reviews for the year and pick out the best and worst of the bunch. Often times, I'll find that a two trial of a product will show that it either works or doesn't but it's the long haul I'm looking for in a product. And I imagine you are too! That's why I think it's important to give an update on which products are no longer working and ones I would I … [Read more...]
I don't know what it is about the holidays but it's the one time of the year that dirty dishes seem to multiply. By the time I was done with my pre-holiday baking, I had enough dirty dishes to fill my dishwasher twice. And then after the holiday dinner, that was another three loads of dishes. It was a pretty messy situation. I'm not sure if I have my new dishwasher, the awesome FINISH® QUANTUM® packets I use to … [Read more...]
