Taking Baby steps to a more natural life with Johnson's Baby Naturals

It can be a struggle to balance being natural with being a parent - you want what's best for your children, the environment and for yourself, but there are so many considerations and options out there.  I can honestly say that as a family we are taking baby steps towards being more natural and greener at our house, but we have a long way to go.  

Partying with Hickory Farms this Holiday Season

There are a few traditions that I've come to love since moving here to the US and one of them is seeing the Hickory Farms Kiosk go up in the Citadel Mall right near where Santa is... they always have the yummiest treats to sample and I always pick up one or two great gifts from them every year....
But this year, I got a gift!  Hickory Farms sent me all kinds of treats to throw a house party and share with my friends - and I got to share just how easy it is to order Hickory Farms gifts online and pay just $3 for shipping:

Holiday Gift Guide Review: VTech LS6475-3 Multitasking Phone System

One of the toughest things about being the mom of 3 busy kids is trying to have an uninterrupted telephone conversation - or heaven forbid, talk on the phone and type on the computer at the same time!  It's also tough because we're so far away from friends and family - over 1000 miles from both sets of grandparents, so I also need phones that are easy for the kids to use and have a great speaker phone in them.

Affresh keeps me going!

I have been using affresh® regularly in my washer and I have to say that it has really made keeping on top of the smells and buildup in my washer!  I was lucky enough to get new appliances when we moved into our new place a few years ago and I am glad that I've found affresh® to help me keep it that way.

Product Review - Babycakes Donut Maker

One of the things that I struggle with during the summer is finding fun and interesting things for my thirteen year old to do at home.. I know how much she enjoys getting out, but with the two smaller kids it's just not as easy as it was when she was an only child, so I'm so glad that I have had the opportunity to test out the Babycakes Donut Maker with her!

Cottonelle Moist Wipes Product Review #GetFresh sponsored

One of the things that we've been working hard on for the past several weeks is getting Liam potty trained. He's finally over his fear of sitting on the potty, he knows the routine down cold, but he still hasn't 'done the deed'.  One of the things that we're trying to do during the transition is make wiping fun!  He's always liked the feeling of using baby or toddler wipes, but as he transitions to being a big boy we thought we'd try out Cottonelle Moist Wipes!  

Tylenol Update and tips for giving medication

My family has been using Tylenol since I was a child, so when my kids are sick or in pain, it's the first brand that I think of... 


One of the things that I like most about Tylenol is that they continually strive to make things easier for parents and they are currently revamping their infant and children's products to make it easier for parents to know that they are giving their children the right dosage!  

MOM What Being a Mom Means ...

The word Mom means something different to every single person, and until you've been a mom, I don't think that you realize what an impact and meaning that one short word takes on...

It's funny - when I was pregnant with Liam, I dreamed about the time when he would call me mom and I never dreamed that it would be almost four years until I knew that he actually identified me as his mother... 

Product Review: Old London Melba Toast and sweepstakes announcement

Melba toast has been a staple in my family for years.  It is my father's go-to snack, especially when we are out - there is always a package of melba toast in the car for emergencies or just to snack on when out doing errands, so when I was approached to be part of an Old London review, I knew I had to check it out, if only for nostalgia sake...

My new shopping addiction: Gaggle of Chicks

There have been a plethora of shopping and sites - and I've joined some of them to get some good deals, but I have to say that finding Gaggle of Chicks has been one of the most fun!  Gaggle of Chicks offers nationwide and New York based deals FOR MOMS!


How to join the gaggle (for free!) and start saving on new deals everyday! 


Check the deal 
Once you sign up (for free!), you'll start getting daily emails from us with "today's deal." 
Act quickly: each deal expires after 48 hours! Deals are also posted on our website. 


Hatch the deal 
When enough moms like you purchase the same deal, it "hatches" and everybody saves! 


Share the deal 
Share the savings with your peeps! The more other moms buy, the more money you'll save



Why We're Different
Anyone can slash the price on a product. We offer so much more than that. Take a kid's haircut. We wouldn't just offer it at 50% off. We would make sure it was the best place for a haircut. We would use our kids as test cases (sorry guys). We'd give inside tips on how to navigate that particular salon. And we might also have an exclusive event there, like a Gaggle beauty day with hair-care tips and lice-prevention techniques.
We listen to what moms say and what they want. We do the legwork because we know what it's like, the good and the bad. And we take the stress out of making those eight million decisions a day so moms can focus on what matters most: their kids. Gaggle on!

My review:  This site has had several great mom-friendly deals - and the best part is, unlike other sites, you have more than 24 hours to do your purchasing!  I bought Erik a new car seat cover and found their purchasing process quick, easy and efficient and the company they worked with excellent!  I love that they not only get you the best deal, but that they take the time to make sure you are getting high quality!  I have to say that I was sad to miss out on one of the deals that went fast - but it was an incredible deal, so now I know that with the best deals people snap them up quick!


I really think you should pop over and check out Gaggle of Chicks!  If you register through my link, they'll start you off with a $10 credit towards your first purchase!  They also offer a $10 referral bonus for recommending your friends, that you get when they make their first purchase!
