I was asked to visit Crayola Experience with my family. Although I received complimentary admission, all opinions are my own. Sponsored post. When Crayola Experience asked to partner with me to write a blog post, I quickly said yes because we love it so much and hadn’t been in quite a few months. Besides […]

So you may have seen some awesome products on my social feeds last night! As a contributor to Orlando Moms Blog, I attended the second annual Favorite Things event at the Orlando Science Center where I, along with my fellow mom bloggers, were treated to a wonderful evening with food, music, company and of course, […]
As a kid, I remember going to the mall with my grandmother to have lunch and a shopping excursion. Our favorite lunch stop: Sbarro. Sbarro looks a little different now with a revamped logo, menu and storefront, but the most important fact is the same: their original NY style pizza is still one of the […]
I’ve been a little radio silent here recently between the holidays, sniffles, a new semester of students, and prepping for Lily’s 2nd Birthday. It’s definitely been a balancing act. Onwards into spring in Florida! I’m going to diverge from the Gator theme today to blog about Lily’s 2nd birthday party. This is more of an […]
There’s a certain pride that comes over you when you see your littles in your alma mater or favorite sports team’s colors. Whether you bleed orange and blue or not, make sure to capture the fleeting moments of your child’s first years on film. A professional photographer can capture aspects of your child your smartphone’s […]
I’ve been wanting to re-do Lily’s bathroom for awhile now. I wasn’t sure of the theme I’d go with, but I knew once I saw it, I’d KNOW it. And did I ever! I practically ran to the display when I walked into Pottery Barn Kids and saw it on the wall. Pottery Barn Kids […]
August is almost here, and that means Back to School time here in Florida! This upcoming weekend, August 1 – 3, is Florida’s Tax Free Weekend. This is a great time to stock up on supplies, technology and plenty of orange & blue items. An additional perk: Not only can you save when it comes […]
Even though it’s summer, you can still infuse a little bit of your love for the Gators into your summer barbecues! This bread recipe is also the perfect centerpiece for your tailgate this upcoming football season. Even if you’re not a fan of the Florida Gators, this recipe is fun for kids. Rhodes Bake-N-Serv products are […]
I haven’t really touched on our journey to become parents on this blog, and in honor of National Infertility Awareness Week, I thought I would share our story. She’s here. She’s really here. I had to keep telling myself that sometimes when she was born. When you’ve been struggling with infertility for a long time like […]
You may have seen a recent Facebook status where I let it be known that Carter’s currently has tons of orange and blue fashions for your little Gator Girl. Well, when I rounded the corner today at the mall, I about fell over when I saw the Janie & Jack window! There’s a whole new […]
Living in Florida, it’s a given you’re going to get sweaty whether from a hot car seat, sitting at a Gator game or heck, just walking to the mailbox. When Knock out! Panties contacted me to do a review, I figured I’d give it a go! And, I gave mine the ultimate Florida test…a day […]
Goodie Goodie app is a MUST HAVE kids app! This organizational, motivational, and rewards app is perfect for your littles to keep track digitally of their to dos AND it’s FREE to download! This app reminds me of a feature from my favorite book series, Harry Potter, when the kids would earn points for tasks […]
I’m the type of person who makes a list even if stuff has been done, just to check it off! Lists, calendars, color-coding systems… they make me happy because I’m a planner. I embrace my Type A personality so when that line appeared on our pregnancy test a year and a half ago, a whole […]
I love having a little girl because it’s true, they are made of sugar and spice and everything nice! BUT I also love having a girl for all the wonderful hair accessories they get to wear! Lily’s hair is finally long enough to hold a barrette, but before that point, the baby headband almost always […]
As we all know, car seat safety is important in keeping your little one safe in a vehicle. We spent hours reading recommendations, reviews and literature when it came to selecting a car seat. And then we check, and double check every single time we buckle our daughter in. Chest bar in the right place? […]
Being the scrapbooker and photo/memory keeper that I am, I’ve been excited for awhile to try out a new store that is tailored to Instagram and photo lovers…Polaroid Fotobar! One of my New Year’s resolution is to not let my beautiful photos stay on my phone. I want to see them each day, and smile. […]
