Thank you to Freshly Picked for providing me with a pair of moccasins, free of charge, for review.  All opinions are my own. When our second child started walking, we searched high and low for a pair of shoes that would fit his chubby feet.  I had my mind set that I wanted soft, flexible soles because I had seen research reports on that being an important feature for growing feet.  To our dismay, we spent hours upon hours visiting every store imaginable in our town that day to no avail.  Eventually, Read more [...]

*I was provided with a BSwim bathing suit. All opinions are my own. I have such a hard time finding bathing suits that I like the fit of. I want to feel confident in my bathing suit without feeling like I am covering up more than usual for someone my age (22). I am pear shaped, so I usually require a larger size bottom than top. To try and balance myself out, I look for a lined or padded top. When looking at padded bathing suits, the under-wire is often very visible so they almost look like a Read more [...]

I love comfortable pajamas, however I also like having pajamas that look nice, cute, or attractive, but this can be fairly hard to find. I often simply have to choose pajamas that are comfortable, or pajamas that look attractive. Just My Jammies has a line of lingerie and loungewear that is both comfortable and attractive! They have various styles that both look good, and are attractive for your significant other, but are comfortable enough to simply just wear around. I was very excited to be able Read more [...]

I received products from Lee Jeans for my review. All opinions are my own. My family wears jeans year-round. As I began moving our winter apparel into storage and moving our spring apparel into our closets, I noticed my daughters and I were in need of new jeans. I turned to my friends at Lee Jeans for a few new styles. Lee Jeans are always well made, comfortable to wear and come in several fun styles. For our review, we were sent four pair of Lee Jeans. Savannah is wearing the Skinny BLTD Jeans Read more [...]

Thank you to Simply Modest Swimwear for providing me with samples, free of charge, for review.  All opinions are my own. Modest Swimwear can be hard to find.  I've actually found it impossible to locate in any stores near us.  A few moms were chatting at a local gathering and we were all frustrated with the fact that we couldn't find the style suits we were looking for.  Not for ourselves or for our daughters.  So I turned to the internet in hopes of locating a suit for our daughter.  I Read more [...]

I used to be the type of person that never really wore t-shirts. I wore dresses, and blouses pretty much everywhere. However, that's before I started working with special need's children for a living. Nowadays, I wear t-shirt and jeans and casual apparel just about every day. I normally stick to just colored shirts, because I'm not a fan of very many t-shirts and the images on them. However, Never Stop Apparel has a line of casual clothing that has great, unique, artist designed clothing. I was very Read more [...]

I received product from YesStyle for my review. All opinions are my own. I have a case of what I call “the Mondays”. I did not want to get out of bed this morning. My week’s schedule is packed full. I have school obligations with my daughters, work I need to do around the house in preparation for an open house, I need to finish gathering items for a garage sale we are getting ready for and I have blog work waiting for me. On top of all of that, we are feeling the loss of a family member. When Read more [...]

Thank you Zutano for providing me with products to review, free of charge, and for sponsoring a giveaway These are my own honest opinions. Winter seems to be dragging on and on and on. Most of the snow is gone but the weather is gray and cold and rainy. I can't wait for the grass to be green and fluffy again, for flowers to bloom, for trees to grow their lushious foliage again. Spring is meant to be bright and colorful. Although I can't push Mother Nature along, I can zoom into Spring by choosing Read more [...]

Thank you to Cudas for sending me samples, free of charge, for review.  All opinions are my own. Along with Summer comes trips to the park, beach, zoo, and hitting the trails for walks with our family.  Since Minnesota Winters tend to be so long and cold, we really try to take advantage of the nice weather when it finally comes.  The sunshine is welcoming and we spend time outdoors every day possible.  Growing up, I always had a pair of water shoes for our beach visits but, until recently, Read more [...]

Thank you to Everly Grey Maternity for providing me with samples, free of charge, for review.  All opinions are my own. Pregnancy can be a joyous time.  Once I'm passed the morning sickness, nausea, and extreme tiredness, I do enjoy pregnancy.  Watching my belly grow and feeling the baby move or kick is one of my favorite times.  However, throughout all these changes, I have found that my wardrobe is in dire need of help.  Since this is our 5th baby, I am already outgrowing my "normal" clothes Read more [...]
