You know when you get something that just clicks so well that you wonder how you ever did without? That was the exact way I felt when the Joovy Caboose Too Ultralight arrived for review. As slim as a single stroller and more versatile than any of our other double strollers we’ve ever used, the … Read more
Remember my post about how much my kiddos adore the Octonauts TV show? Well, the love they have for the show has only grown deeper in the past few weeks and it’s now the only thing my daughter wants to watch these days. Her world has shifted from one of unicorns and rainbows to something … Read more
I’m a saver, not a spender. Sure, I have things I like to splurge on, but I also love the feeling of saving and building a financial safety net. While my kids know that we always buy with coupons and shop sales, they don’t get the concept of saving up for something and I wanted … Read more

Such is the case with the wheelyBUG from Prince Lionheart that we received for review. He loves it so much that … Read more
My daughter is constantly picking up crocheted and knit items she finds and asking me if I could possibly “yarn this” for her myself. As much as I agree that whatever knit scarf/hat/owl/monkey that she holds up is cute, what she doesn’t understand is that I have never created anything out of yarn that I … Read more
I constantly have my camera out, so I love my kids to wear coordinating outfits most days so they don’t clash with each. For this reason, I’m a huge fan of Gymboree’s mix and match collections that come out each season. I love visiting one of the many Gymboree stores near me and grabbing a few things … Read more
