Celebrating one year milestones! Enter to win a Sears $50 Gift card & a Family Trip to Orlando

by

I’ve always believed that one year milestones are the best. They’re special in many ways. Whether you’re celebrating your first wedding anniversary, your child’s first birthday or your one year blog anniversary, the one year mark says “I’ve made it”.  With kids, it says “We both made it”.  I often congratulate parents as much as […]

Print at home Valentine’s day cards for kids & loved ones #ValentinesDay

Valentines Day is just around the corner. In the past (or should I say, pre-kids), this used to be a fun day for me and my husband. We took the effort to buy each-other small gifts and celebrate a night-out.  For better or worse, that all changed once we had kids.  While we certainly still […]

by

The holidays are fast approaching (yikes) and if you have kids to buy for, I’m sure your list is never-ending.  However, that might also mean that you’re spending more than you’d really like. While I believe in consumerism as a great driver of our economy, I also like to think of myself as a savvy […]
