This post is Sponsored by PopStarClub, Inc but my opinions are 100% my own! Having two girls means we have a lot of girl toys.  When I was pregnant with my 2nd daughter,  I actually told my husband I was sort of hoping to have another girl because we already had everything for a girl.  Having a boy would mean all new 'boy' things.  Of course I would have been happy if we had a boy but we had another girl and now our house is full of dolls - not dolls and cars! The good thing is, my girls actually play with their dolls.  They definitely have a lot but I can say that each one gets some play time, not just with them but with their friends.  And when they get a new one, they all come out to...

This post is Sponsored by CVS/Pharmacy but my opinions are 100% my own! CVS/Pharmacy recently launched a new line called Total Home.  It includes products that you use every single day in your home, but at a more affordable price then the national brands.   You can save 15-20% when you purchase the Total Home products, which can add up a lot over time.  Especially for those moments when you really need something, but it's not on sale and you don't have a coupon.   Unfortunately, we don't all have a budget that allows us to buy whatever we want, whenever we want and CVS/Pharmacy gets that, they really do! About Total Home The Total Home line includes a wide range of products for everyday...

This post is Sponsored by Energizer but my opinions are 100% my own! Believe it or not, it's almost time to turn the clocks back.  I can't believe we are heading into November.  This year flew by.  November 3rd is the day to set our clocks back and hour and it's also the time of year when Energizer, the International Association of Fire Chiefs, and fire departments nationwide join forces for the Change Your Clock Change Your Battery® program.  This program raises awareness of the importance of having working smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors to help to keep families safe in their homes.  This program is in it's 26th year and the message is still an important one. Sadly,...

  This post is Sponsored by YoCrunch but my opinions are 100% my own! I love pumpkin pie!  Actually, I love pumpkin anything and it's been so hard to resist all these pumpkin temptations that don't fit into my diet.   And then I received some YoCrunch Pumpkin Pie Parfait and now I've been able to satisfy my pumpkin craving. Have you seen this yet? My youngest daughter would never even think of eating a piece of pumpkin pie.   But when this arrived she couldn't wait to try it, which completely surprised me. She loved it! Can you see how it's almost gone? She was more than happy to pose for as many pictures as I wanted because she loved it.   The empty cup tells it all.  She asked if she...

This post is Sponsored by Shout! Factory Kids but my opinions are 100% my own! If you have girls in your family, then chances are you know who the Little Pet Shop is.  As a matter of fact, you probably have about a million of them scattered around your house!  OK, maybe not a million but some days it seems like there are that many.   Our first introduction to the Littlest Pet Shop was when my oldest was 4 years old and she received her first play set.  Ever since then we've collected tons of pets - some duplicates, some play sets, Wii games and movies.  And they love them all.  And now there is a new movie to add to their collection - Littlest Pet Shop: Petacular Escapades. Blythe and her...

Disclosure: This event and trip to LA was an all expense paid journey sponsored by Disney.  All thoughts and experiences are 100% my own! We are so excited to share with you that The Little Mermaid Diamond Edition Blu-ray, DVD and Digital Copy is being released on October 1, 2013.  I haven't seen this movie in years.  I thought we still had a copy but I guess it must have been a VHS copy and we got rid of all of those a while back.  That's when I realized my girls haven't actually seen The Little Mermaid movie, they've only read the books.  So we were all excited (well us girls, my husband sat this one out) to see The Little Mermaid Blu-ray. But first we had to watch the Bonus Features. ...

This post is Sponsored by Gordon's but my opinions are 100% my own! I love having quick meals in the freezer that I can cook anytime, and that the kids like.   Fish sticks is one of those things.  They LOVE Fish Sticks so I almost always have some in the freezer for a night I need something quick.  My youngest likes to dip them in mayonnaise and my oldest likes to dip them in ketchup.  Either way as long as they eat them, I'm fine with that. I've been a pretty faithful Gorton's user for a long time as I've tried others and I always seem to come back to Gorton's.    The quality is pretty noticeable but what I love (and my family loves) about Gorton's is the crunchy outside.  They really...

This post is Sponsored by VOXX Accessories but my opinions are 100% my own! I remember when I was a kid we only dreamed of having a wireless bluetooth speaker.  Instead we had a record player, and a tape player and seriously I even remember my mother's 8 track player!  Then when I was a teen CD's came out and we thought this was amazing because we could push a button and it would be back to the beginning of the song!  However CD's scratched so they didn't have a very long life.  And if you wanted a variety of music in your car, you had to carry your collection with you.  And of course then there was the problem with people stealing CD's out of cars!  But now we have iPods, MP3 Players and...
