Keeping An Allergen-Free Home
Published on Monday, May 31, 2010 by caryn My husband loves it when I clean the house (which is less often that we'd both like these days with two kidlets running around). But finding the time to clean it from top to bottom (literally) is a challenge. More often than not, sections of the house get cleaned...just in time for other areas to get dirty. For some parts of the country, allergy season is still v... Read More » -

The Importance of Maintaining Your Vehicle *G...
Published on Thursday, May 27, 2010 by caryn This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by. The winner is Vickie C. Congrats! I do a lot of driving. I live in between Los Angeles and San Diego, and inevitably, much of what we do is in one or both of those counties.

“Miracle” Jeans That Fit and Flat...
Published on Thursday, May 27, 2010 by caryn After the transformation my body underwent, I'm left with the reality that my clothes don't and likely won't ever fit me as they once did. While I've managed to lose a good amount of my weight from this past pregnancy, I still have baby weight from my first (a combined total of 35 pounds to be exact). So while I'm trying to decide what to do about the current stat... Read More » -

How to Shop for a Nursing Bra
Published on Thursday, May 27, 2010 by caryn If I do the math correctly, by the end of this year, I will have spent almost 3 years of my life nursing. While at times, it's been difficult, uncomfortable, stressful and even painful, I would not have fed my children any other way. The nutritional benefits and bonding make nursing a baby a truly enjoyable experience. Recently, I talked about my breastfeeding e... Read More » -

And after speaking to Jocelyn in Arizona last month, I have been thinking about how I might offer you (my readers) opportunities to develop relationships with companies. If you're a regular reader of my blog, then you know what to expect when you see a product revi... Read More » -

Allergen-Free Baking
Published on Tuesday, May 25, 2010 by caryn A few months ago, we confirmed what I had suspected for about a year. My son is allergic to dairy and eggs. I want to say that I was shocked...but I wasn't. I knew he was reacting to something...I just didn't know what food (s) were triggering his reactions. When my Pediatrician confirmed his allergies, I thought that we would just have to work to avoid those fo... Read More » -

Published on Monday, May 24, 2010 by caryn This giveaway is now closed. Congrats to Valancia #112! I've been deemed crunchy by many of my friends and family members.

Published on Monday, May 24, 2010 by caryn This giveaway is now closed. Congrats to Jaque #13! We literally have thousands of photos sitting on thumb drives and both of our computers, many of which may never be printed (which makes me a bit sad). The innovation of digital photography gives me the freedom to take as many pictures as I'd like, in order to achieve the perfect shot. But it also means that I t... Read More » -

How to Grocery Shop With a Toddler
Published on Monday, May 24, 2010 by caryn I dread going to the grocery store. My toddler does not enjoy sitting in a grocery cart for any length of time, and it's inevitable that at some point while I'm there the baby wants to nurse. What should be no more than a 30 minute trip can take nearly an hour (or longer). If I wait until my husband gets home and complete dinner and bedtime routines, many of the... Read More » -

Controller-Free Gaming
Published on Monday, May 24, 2010 by caryn I have to admit that I am a total gamer. I used to carry a Game Boy with me when I was a child and I conquered the entire Super Mario Bros. trio. I haven't had a lot of experience with gaming consoles apart from Nintendo's. But I'm always open to new systems, games, and overall gaming technology (which is why you'll see me at E3 this year). A few weeks ago, I... Read More » -

And what about the necessities v. the niceties? Or when to splurge v. when to save? Because I spent my first trimester overseas and my last two trimesters on bedrest, all of my re... Read More » -

What Not To Eat
Published on Saturday, May 22, 2010 by caryn I wish there was a product...some device that would tell me what I should and shouldn't eat. It would take into account my dietary intolerances, my food preferences and my lifestyle. I could access it while on the go at fast food restaurants and the grocery store. Maybe it would even have the ability to compare prices and provide nutritional information... I re... Read More » -
