Acer Iconia W3 8.1″ Tablet Giveaway (10/21)
We're a geeky gamer household. It doesn't matter how much we hear it from family and that's just how we're going to be. At any given time, you can find a tablet, phone, or controller in the hands of my kids, because it's what they love to do. Does that make them lazy? Nah, I don't think so. I think everyone has to find their own thing, and my kids are entertained and often educated by the electronics they hold in their hands. Braxton (9) and Hawk (6) use tablets and phone apps to learn anything from math to reading…
Motorola Talkabout MT350R Review – Great for Emergency Preparedness
Hurricane season is in full swing, and although we haven't had any worrisome disturbances hit the Texas coast, it doesn't hurt to be prepared. We've had our fair share of pretty tough weather in the Houston area, and now that our family has moved closer to the bay, of course, hurricanes are definitely a threat. When Hurricane Rita came in 2005, and Hurricane Ike came through in 2008, this area was affected by the storms. If you're in a hurricane zone, all I can advise is to be prepared -- and don't rely on your cell phones! I'm so glad…
Chicco Red Bullet Balance Bike Review
Not too long ago, one of my neighbors paid another one of my neighbors (teenager) to teach his son how to ride his bike. He learned in about 10 minutes, so it was pretty much a quick payday for the teenager! However, we still have several little ones in the neighborhood to teach to ride a bike, and we'll either have to do it ourselves or go broke fairly quickly. One of the products that we've found is a great help at a really early age is the Chicco Red Bullet Balance Bike to help them learn how to balance…
bluum Monthly Boxes for Moms and Kiddos Review
It seems like every time I turn around, there's a new "box of the month" site that pops up. Just this weekend, Andy was telling me that they even have them for adults! It's a really neat concept, if you think about it. You pay a monthly fee, the company sends you a box with stuff you probably wouldn't have even thought about buying, and you're instantly turned on to new brands! Genius. At first, I was skeptical, but when my box showed up, I was really excited to see all of the great (and yummy) stuff that came in…
Sophie la girafe Book Series Debut! Review & #Giveaway (10/2)
When Jett was born, we decided that his favorite animal was going to be a giraffe! I loved all of the giraffe things that were out, and it became the theme for him. All of his shirts, toys, cloth diapers, blankets, etc., that we found had giraffes on them. At about 2 months old, one of our friends gave him a Sophie the Giraffe teether. I really didn't see the big deal about this toy until it actually arrived. It quickly became Jett's favorite toy as well as mine. Sophie is so soft, and it's just a great teething toy…
Flip Hybrid Cloth Diaper System Review | #flipdiapers #clothdiapers
I teach a cloth diapering basics class, and one of the most commonly asked questions is "What is your favorite type of diaper?" Without hesitation, I always answer, "I love the Flip Diaper System." I love that it's trim, affordable, and best of adjustable from 8-35 pounds (which adds to it's affordability!). Imagine my excitement when this package landed on my doorstep! When I first started cloth diapering many, many years ago, one of the downsides was the bulk. I can remember that my mom hated holding my babies because their rear ends seemed so disproportionate to the rest of…

Now that school is back in session, the boys aren't allowed to play video games during the week, because they're so obsessed! The good news is, they have some really awesome new toys to play with!
