Holiday Gift Guide 2009: Wallables
Published on Friday, October 30, 2009 by caryn One of the things I really appreciated about moving into our home last year was the opportunity to decorate my son's room. I really enjoyed having our little boy close to us (and most nights he still ends up in our bed at some point during the night) but it was nice to finally move him to his own room. And because it was something new for him, we needed to build u... Read More » -

Published on Thursday, October 29, 2009 by caryn This giveaway is now closed. Congrats to Helen S!

We Got Makeovers! Thanks e.l.f!
Published on Wednesday, October 28, 2009 by caryn Several weeks ago I received this email in my inbox that made me want to jump up and down (except that I'm seven months pregnant and certain that's not a good idea). It said..."You've been selected to host an e.l.f. Makeup at Home Party." Me? Host a party? With makeup? That I already wear? It took me all of a few seconds to hit the reply button. I joine...

My Apologies…
Published on Wednesday, October 28, 2009 by caryn Dear Family, Friends, Neighbors, Church Small Group, Women's Bible Study, etc. As you may or may not know, I'm almost 30 weeks pregnant with a baby girl. And I have a 2 year old who I'm trying hard to run after, entertain, and otherwise keep out of mischief. And a husband who likes a clean house (I guess I failed in that category). And did I mention I'm off of ... Read More » -

Holiday Gift Guide 2009: Restore Clean Water...
Published on Tuesday, October 27, 2009 by caryn More and more of us are recognizing the reality that are precious natural resources are finite. My husband and I work very hard to recycle, reuse, and reduce our carbon footprint. One of the most difficult things I've had to do is give up bottled water. And I know (in my head) that when it comes to safety there is no "guarantee" that bottled water is cleaner, sa... Read More » -

Published on Monday, October 26, 2009 by caryn My husband gently kisses me on the cheek goodbye, so not to wake me, not knowing that I've been awake (for the second time) since his alarm went off. The first time was earlier in the night when my son wanted out of his toddler bed and into "mommy and daddy's bed." These days, I don't need an alarm. I have a 2 year old...who just happens to be sleeping peacefull... Read More » -

Spotlight On Plan A Baby Event
Published on Monday, October 26, 2009 by caryn I find myself googling baby products more and more these days (I can't imagine why). To be honest, we have a lot of the necessities (car seat, co-sleeper, etc.) from when my son was born. And I'm not above putting our little girl in a blue swing or a green onesie (those things just aren't that important to me). But in the two years since my son was born, t... Read More » -

All Aboard the Choo Choo Train…
Published on Sunday, October 25, 2009 by caryn My son has an affectionado towards a certain mouse. Perhaps it was our weekly trips to Disneyland (now less often because of the pregnancy) that make Mickey Mouse the exception when it comes to gigantic costumed characters. Earlier this week my little boy and I were supposed to join 30 preschoolers in LA this week for the conclusion of Mickey's Virtual Train Tour.... Read More » -

Published on Thursday, October 22, 2009 by caryn This giveaway is now closed. Congrats to our winner, Sharon Jones! So now that summer is over, have you started to "let yourself go" just a bit? I am obviously not exercising at the moment (except for running around after my two year old!) but I always remember slacking a bit once the weather cooled down. Warm sweaters and jeans can hide a lot and as the holida... Read More »
