All About My Vacation (Where I Stayed!)
Published on Sunday, September 13, 2009 by caryn So, I started thinking about the two weeks we spent away in Minnesota, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina and everything we did. From my visit to General Mills to our stay on a beach in Charlotte, we saw and experienced so much. I thought I'd just do a series of posts. FYI, some of the posts will include reviews and experiences with companies and products. B... Read More » -

Got Fruit? *Giveaway*
Published on Sunday, September 13, 2009 by caryn This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by! The winners are Jessie, Annalene, Peggy, and Kristy. Congrats! So it seems like this week is all about food! I totally did not plan for it to go that way. But apart from shopping for clothes, shoes, and school supplies, you're probably shopping for food items to place in your child's lunch. I personal... Read More » -

You’ll Flip For This! I Promise!
Published on Saturday, September 12, 2009 by caryn If you've read my blog, then you know I've suffered with allergies my entire life. I don't want to bore you with the details, but I've used practically every nasal spray and antihistamine on the market (I have a great ENT who likes to try the newest medications out for allergies). My husband is the lucky (and gracious) man who gets to dust and garden because I sim... Read More » -

What Do You Do For Halloween?
Published on Saturday, September 12, 2009 by caryn Do you "celebrate" Halloween? While I'm not one to scare or be scared, we do like to dress up. In fact, my husband and I met at a church Halloween party, so it's only fitting that we at least dress up! Last year, we took my son around the neighborhood, dressed as Bob the Builder. Once he realized that knocking on other people's doors was fun and not scary, he ... Read More » -

D23 (Day 1…For Me At Least!)
Published on Friday, September 11, 2009 by caryn Everything Disney does is magical. And this year, at the first conference for Disney fans, it's no different. D23 was awesome today and there are still two more days! Each day is filled with first-looks at products, projects and more. I can't wait to visit the Walt Disney Parks and Resorts exhibit and learn more about the resort they're building in Hawaii (that'... Read More » -

How To Pack a Healthier Lunch
Published on Wednesday, September 9, 2009 by caryn As you can imagine, I receive a lot of press releases, story ideas, and general information via email about companies and brands. Maybe I should start a weekly column. Anyway, I can't possibly post about them all, but every now and then, I receive something that I find interesting that I think you may benefit from! Since we're talking about going back to school... Read More » -

Get Artsy!
Published on Wednesday, September 9, 2009 by caryn My son has discovered the fine art of coloring...and painting....and markers...and chalk. Our laminate floors are often colored with a new shade (fortunately crayons are the only things we allow him to use in that room). While our little artist discovers the Van Gogh within him, I'm checking the boxes to make sure the bite he took won't send us all to the ER. I ... Read More » -

Back To School With LeapFrog!
Published on Wednesday, September 9, 2009 by caryn My son really enjoys "reading" and exploring with his Tag Junior. One day, when he's old enough, we'll upgrade to the Tag Reading System, the number one best-selling reading system which has won over 28 awards. My son's not quite ready for it yet, but I wanted to share with you a new series for the system that is helping children learn to read. I attended a conf... Read More » -

What Are You Packing For Lunch?
Published on Tuesday, September 8, 2009 by caryn Today is my son's first "official" day of preschool. But he's been attending all summer long and it's been going really well. The preschool my son attends serves lunch. So twice a week, I don't have to worry about packing anything for him (for the most part, anyway). On the one hand, it's nice not to have to worry about packing him a lunch. However, I'm a he... Read More » -

Overcoming Fear
Published on Sunday, September 6, 2009 by caryn Fear. I know we all fear something...it's part of what makes us human. But when did I become terrified of spiders or airplanes or pregnancy? Sometimes I look at my 2 year old and long for the days when I knew no fear. Two years ago, around this time I started contracting with my son. We hadn't even reached that magical "24" week mark, which really isn't... Read More » -

Published on Saturday, September 5, 2009 by caryn I think I've saved the best for last! All of the shoes in our back to school series have their own unique attributes and I could see myself purchasing any of the ones I've recommended so far. But just like anything you're in the market for, there is the "creme de la creme," the top-of-the line brands that do an outstanding job of bringing you a high-quality design... Read More » -

Home Safety and Baby Proofing by KidSafe Inc.
Published on Saturday, September 5, 2009 by caryn Our little one learned fairly early how to get around. Those precious moments when he made his first attempts to crawl and his first steps are ingrained in my mind! At the time, we lived in a cramped one bedroom apartment and realized quickly that containing the growing curiosity of our adventurer was essential to his safety (and my sanity). We specifically used a Pla... Read More » -

Published on Saturday, September 5, 2009 by caryn Why so many shoes? I imagine that might be a question forming as you read the title of this post. Honestly, I've always been a "shoe" girl. My husband is constantly trying to bribe me into getting rid of a pair of shoes...ANY pair would suffice. The problem is, I have shoes for different occasions...and perhaps so do you. But we're talking about children, ri... Read More » -
