Via: DegreeSearch.org I remember as a kid I loved to lay out Sweethearts to create a funny conversation – and…

How to Stay Motivated (or Get Back on Track) With New Years Resolutions
The first week of January has got to be the most optimistic week of the year. It’s during those first few days of the new year that most of us commit to goals – resolutions – changes that will make the coming year better than the one that has just passed. We want to be…
Immune to the Cold – #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
What is it about little boys? I convinced AJ to let me take some quick pictures of him in his new outfit from Gymboree yesterday to prep for the post that will be coming up shortly. He was SO excited about his new clothes and was eager to wear them to school on Wednesday, but…
Pleased with my Reflection…My Experience With Juvederm
I think everyone has that one spot on their body that they would love to change if they had a chance. Mine is my nose. I always cringed when I catch a glimpse my profile. Logically I know that it isn’t that bad…but emotionally, that bump on my nose bothers me. For others, it may…
We Are Not Powerless… {In Honor of Susan Niebur}
Susan was a rocket scientist. I loved being able to say that I was friends with a rocket scientist (ok, technically an astrophysicist), as if some of her brilliance might rub off on me. Susan was a mother. A wife. A blogger. A friend. One year ago today, on February 6, 2012, those of us…
Morning Inspiration – Wordless Wednesday
It has been COLD here lately, but the snow has been nearly non-existent, which means that the view most mornings when I walk the kids to school is quite drab. A few days ago, we had a light dusting of snow overnight. The snow was uncommonly dry (our snow here is always wet and mushy)….
World Nutella Day with Banana Nutella Blondies and Strawberry Nutella Wraps
Move over Valentine’s Day…February 5th is World Nutella Day. …and I’ve got two amazing Nutella desserts for you! I find it hard to believe that only a few years ago I hadn’t even tasted Nutella. Now it’s a house staple. We typically eat Nutella spread on warm English Muffins or bagels, but it is absolutely…

Pampers Deal at Walmart.com – FREE Bonus Gillette Razors #PampersJoy
With 5 kids who were each in diapers for an average of 3 years (and that doesn’t count the night-time diaper need that extended beyond regular potty training years), you’d better believe I bought my fair share of diapers. I can’t imagine how many rooms I could fill with all of the diapers my babies…
New Disney’s Iron Man 3 + Lone Ranger Sneak Peek
I may be the only person in America not tuning in to the Super Bowl this weekend but that doesn’t mean I’m not excited to tune in to the some of the pre-game entertainment (and of course the commercials)! Here’s a preview of two sneak peek videos from Disney for a couple of the movies…
