It’s coming … the dreaded cough and cold season. All those cute kids head back to school and share their not-so-cute germs with each other. It’s inevitable that someone at my house will end up sick, so I try hard to be prepared before the fevers, coughs and sore throats that appear (usually during the wee…
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Stride Rite. All opinions are 100% mine. How to make shopping for kids’ shoes easy… I don’t know about other moms out there, but I do everything possible to avoid shopping with my kids. I don’t think I’ll ever recover from the epic, triple…
School is starting up soon for my kids, so we are trying to squeeze in as much fun as possible! We’ve hiked a lot of trails as a family, but I’ve also taken my 4 kids out by myself, and sometimes we hike with friends. They love it every time! One of the ways we like to fuel up before a hike is with a smoothie. Since my kids love No-Bake Cookies so much, we came up with a no bake cookie smoothie!
I don’t know about your kids, but mine absolutely love milk! They ask for it all the time throughout the day and I don’t mind one bit. So for our treat this week, of course, we had to incorporate milk into it some how. Bingo! Milkshakes!
We took all of our favorite ingredients and created this chocolatey hazelnut pretzel milkshake with a little hint of peanut butter, that I know your kids will love and will leave everyone savoring summer for a little while longer.
Let’s be honest here, my first visit to Build-A-Bear with my little girls was as much of a dream for me, as it was for them. Who’s with me?!? That place is ooooozing with cuteness and fun. So, when they asked me to do a sponsored blog post for them, I was all over it! AND, here’s the deal… Build-A-Bear just got even better with the introduction of the Honey Girls, namely Teegan, Risa, and Viv. These girls have it going on, in several ways, and you can find them at Build-A-Bear online July 8th and in stores July 10th!

When you hear “7-Eleven,” do the words fresh, healthy, fruits/veggies come to mind?? No – me either. But that recently changed when I discovered that 7-Eleven now offers a Fresh Foods line that includes: Fresh sandwiches Salads Fresh cut fruit Whole fruit Yoplait Yogurt Parfait with oats and honey granola Bistro Snack packs with mini…
This post brought to you by Quilted Northern. The content and opinions expressed below are that of ‘Or so she says …’. About the only time I think much about my bathroom and what’s in it is when I have to clean it. But what if the bath toys, wall hangings, perfume bottles, wall paper,…
It’s crazy to me how quickly technology advances and improves! So much of the technology that I use on a regular basis to share special moments with friends and family wasn’t available when I was a kid. I’ve grown accustomed to taking photos on my phone and easily sharing them with my mom and other…
I’m sure almost all of us could use a new appliance … or five! My washer/dryer set is long overdue for an upgrade. That’s one of the reasons why I was excited to learn about the Maytag Salutes Sweepstakes. The other reason I love this sweepstakes is that Maytag is honoring everyday heroes, such as…
Sometimes it just feel like there’s not enough time to get everything done as a busy mom. I try to be organized and plan ahead for dinner, but more often than not the day gets away from me and dinner time sneaks up on me. Or, I look at the day ahead and realize in…
My husband and I have been on a mission recently to replace some of our older furniture that was either handed down to us or purchased inexpensively when we got married. Since we’ve been married over 11 years, it’s about time for a furniture overhaul! We are currently looking for a sofa delivery company to…
We sleep nearly a third of our life away, so it’s super important to pick a pillow that makes that time pleasurable! I’m always on the search for the best pillow in the world. Just when I think I’ve found it, something changes … I injure my neck, grow a prego belly, switch beds, etc….
