We take a lot of pictures. So many that Ashlyn hears the click and says “cheese” without bothering to look up from her craft or snack, and Rowan makes a mad army-crawl towards the camera as soon as she sees it! I love having all of these memories documented, but our shelves are . . . → Read More: Elephoto ($50 gift card giveaway) 
Kids need more than just toys, but try to convince them of that! When I can find items that are practical but still fun I love to give them as gifts, and I think that the Kidorable Dragon Knight Collection would make a great gift for any little man – and some . . . → Read More: Kidorable Dragon Knight Collection (giveaway) 
We all have them – the “impossible to buy for” people on your holiday list. For me it’s my brother-in-law’s family; they’re wonderful people but they never seem to need or want anything – and I’m sure they say the same thing about us! We’re all fortunate enough to have more than enough . . . → Read More: Empire Theatres Holiday Program 
Stocking Stuffers are so much fun to buy, and yet can be the hardest gift at the same time! Do you go random, or practical – and do they really have to fit in the stocking?

All Ashlyn wants for Christmas this year is a new baby doll. She even worked up the nerve to ask Santa for one in person, only to find out that she has to wait for Christmas Day to get it! I received the Little Mommy™ My Very Real Baby™ Doll from Mattel . . . → Read More: Little Mommy™ My Very Real Baby™ Doll 
This is the first year that Ashlyn has been old enough to begin to understand the magic of Santa. We took her to get her picture taken with Santa on Wednesday, and once she worked up the nerve to actually talk to him she was a little put out that she . . . → Read More: Merry Mailbox (giveaway) 
One of my biggest pet peeves is trying to get, and keep, mittens on a baby during the winter. Ashlyn acted as though we were amputating her hands every time we tried to force those teeny baby mittens on her hands, and then she’d promptly manage to get the mittens off . . . → Read More: Stonz Mittz (giveaway)  I’m big on sending out Christmas cards to our families and friends and have done it for about 5 years now.
