    Scrubs… they aren’t just for doctors and nurses anymore!! Check out Blue Sky Scrubs!!! HOW CUTE ARE these?!?!?!?! Kids Scrubs!!!!

  • Talking to Toddlers! Review and Giveaway!!

    GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED I have to start with a funny…….. I’m admitting that I didn’t do the homework that I was supposed to do after listening to the first lesson. I started listening to the second lesson and got busted right away!! Chris Thompson the author Talking to Toddlers must have known I would skip it because he starts right out with “I want to make ABSOLUTELY sure that you did your homework from the last lesson. I’m sure you wouldn’t have moved on to this lesson without completing your homework. RIGHT??” FINE!! I felt so guilty I stopped the playback, and I went did the homework. You know, Chris was right doing the homework really did help. The homework is IMPORTANT!!! It triggers something in my head when dealing with the kids and I remember to try my new strategies. For the record, without fail, I did the homework for each lesson after that. There are 12 lessons. Each…

  • The Peppermint Lane

    All I wanted was a cute picture of Alice in her new hat!!!!! I wanted 2 one for Grammie. I wanted her to hold a note telling her Grammie Happy Birthday. The second photo I wanted a smiling Alice to show off her adorable hat!! That’s allllllllll I wanted. This kid!! She would smile and laugh… but not at the camera. This is the CUTEST hat!!! Thank you Kristin from The Peppermint Lane. (Kristin is so talented!!!!!) Wait till Emma shows off her new dress! OHHHH it’s SO cute!!! But it’s still a surprise so you’ll have to wait for that picture……… so….. back to the stubborn Miss Alice. Smile, laugh and show the note… but not all at the same time. Maybe if I add a prop?? Nope. You know where this story is going don’t you?? Yeah…. you got it….. as soon as the camera was set down Alice SMILED like she was on TV…

  • The Baby Sleep Solution

    If you have a baby that doesn’t sleep through the night….. or sleeps in their own crib or bassinet then have I found THE audio program for YOU!!!! A little background here…. I babysit my Granddaughter Alice during the week and baby Alice has her Nonnie wrapped around her little finger. I probably shouldn’t admit to this…… cause her Mommy & Daddy read this blog… but… Baby Alice cries when I put her in her bassinet for naptime….. soooo instead of putting her down I just hold her. Yes, for the whole nap…. Okay, so this isn’t really working…… first because I’m getting nothing at all done. (Excuse #1 Alice is growing so fast how long will she let me just sit and hold her like this??) (Excuse #2 I’m the Nonnie!!) But in all reality this isn’t working no matter how much I love to hold this baby!! So, when I was given the opportunity to review The Baby Sleep…
