Everything for Sun, Sand and Smiles this Summer at BJ’s Wholesale Club

This post is Sponsored by BJ's Wholesale Club but my opinions are 100% my own! Everything for Sun, Sand and Smiles this Summer at BJ's Wholesale Club School is over which means we are outside for the summer.  We have a pool and lots of friends to share it with.  We entertain a lot during the summer months, even during the week.  My job allows me to work around fun activities with the girls and we take full advantage of those nice days, right here in our backyard! But before my summer begins, I need like to make sure I have everything we need.  I'm happy that while I'm at BJ's stocking up on food and paper products, I can also get what I need for the summer. Here are my Summer Must Haves...

NEW Entenmann’s Little Bites S’mores {Giveaway}

This post is Sponsored by Entenmann's but my opinions are 100% my own! School is out this week which means summer is officially here!  Ever since I was a kid certain things make me think of summer - foods, places, events, activities.  School being out always meant summer to me.  Along with going to the beach, swimming in a pool and cooking on the grill.  But I will admit, even as an adult, I get giddy for those summertime desserts that we enjoy - one being S'mores! My girls love making S'mores as much as I do.  We like to experiment with different chocolates too and haven't found something we don't like yet.  I mean melted marshmallow + chocolate + graham crackers = Yummy Goodness!...

Celebrate the Pet Parent in Your Home with PetSmart

This post is Sponsored by Pet Smart but my opinions are 100% my own! I am a proud Pet Parent but it wasn't something I ever saw in my future.  My family begged me to get a dog.  BEGGED!!! My husband included.  Since I'm home during the day, I knew I'd be the one in charge of everything for the dog and to be honest, I didn't see the fun in it.  I didn't grow up with a dog like my husband did, therefore I didn't understand the "fascination" with being a pet owner. But they pulled on every little string possible to get me to agree to getting a dog.  Once my youngest went to school full-time I started to consider it and we talked about it for about 6 months.  We discussed what type of dog my...

FabKids Summer Stripe Tutu Dress #MyFabKid

FabKids Summer Stripe Tutu Dress #MyFabKid

This post is Sponsored by FabKids but my opinions are 100% my own! Getting dressed in the  morning in my house is never really a problem with my girls.  They love all the clothes in their closets and aren't too picky about what they wear.  (Shoes however are a completely different story!)  That being said, our mornings don't always run that smoothly.   They are usually fighting with  me over their hair and whether or not they did a good job brushing it.   And then those mornings when I have nothing for them to eat for breakfast!  (I have plenty of food for them to eat, it's just not always what they want!)  Do you have these problems too? But when it comes to clothes, thankfully that goes...

Do You Recycle In Your Bathroom?  #ReimagineThat

Do You Recycle In Your Bathroom? #ReimagineThat

This post is Sponsored by Unilever but my opinions are 100% my own! Okay let's discuss Recycling.  I do it all the time.  I'm really big on Recycling.  But I will admit that one of my motivators is that we only have so much room in our trash bin each week so the more we recycle, the less goes into the trash bin.  Plus we have two big recyclable bins so we hardly run out of room.  I've taught the kids and my husband to really pay attention to what goes into the trash and I am very proud of how well they do. That being said, there is one place in the house I'm really bad about recycling.... in the bathroom!  It's not because I don't know what needs to be recycled, it's because I'm too lazy...

Help Your Child Conquer Bed Wetting with Pampers UnderJams #ConquerBedWetting

Help Your Child Conquer Bed Wetting with Pampers UnderJams #ConquerBedWetting

This past weekend we celebrated Mother's Day. I've been a mom for almost 10 1/2 years now and I have two daughters. Becoming a mom was a huge change and shock to the system. It seems all "flowers and butterflies" before you become a mom, but it's really not always "Happy and Easy". Being a mom is a tough job, one of the toughest jobs I've ever had, but I wouldn't change it for the world! When my oldest daughter was younger, she had a lot of trouble staying dry all night long. She was out of diapers during the day by 2 years old but nighttime was a huge struggle for her. Her sister came along shortly after she turned 2 and we moved her into a big girl bed, a different room and she was no...

Colgate Total Helps Women Improve their Oral Care Habits During National Women’s Health Week

Colgate Total Helps Women Improve their Oral Care Habits During National Women’s Health Week

 This post is Sponsored by Colgate but my opinions are 100% my own! One thing I have been making a priority lately is my health.  This time last year I didn't realize how precious my health was but then my husband was diagnosed with Colon Cancer and my health is even more important to me now.  We have two small children and they rely on us to take care of them.  All of a sudden my life seems much more precious than it ever did before and in the last couple of months, I've been re-examining it and trying to take better care of me too. Did you know that National Women’s Health Week kicks off on Mother’s Day and runs through May 16th?  It's the perfect tie for women to start to understand...
