BuyCostumes.com Review
My daughters, ages 4 and 6, love playing dress-up; so, naturally one of their favorite holidays is Halloween. Typically we shop for Halloween costumes a week before they are needed. The stores are a mess, they only have a few options left and they never seem to be in the sizes we need. Last year, I told the girls we were going to have to start shopping earlier in the year. They decided to plan their costumes REALLY early; they started in July. As we were searching online, they found what they were Read more [...]

Back To School With Gymboree Review
When I hear “Back To School” I think of Gymboree. Gymboree to me means cute, comfortable and affordable clothing for kids. They have the styles, designs and fit that kids want.

At 6 and 4 years old, my little girls are becoming quite the fashion divas. I very rarely get to choose their outfits. They have strong clothing opinions of their own. Gymboree is Read more [...]
Back To School With Monkeybar Buddies Review
Like most little girls, my daughters love wearing dresses and skirts. The problem is that they also are very active little girls. For modesty reasons, I feel the need to pair their dresses and skirts with leggings, shorts or tights to help cover their undergarments. This is fine during the cooler months, but in the warmer months, they get really hot.
I heard about a company called Monkeybar Buddies and knew I needed to check them out. They make special lightweight, breathable garments that can Read more [...]
