This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Best Western. All opinions are 100% mine. Sometimes as moms we go, go, go for others (work, kids, husband, etc) and don’t give a thought to our own needs. Moms are used to putting themselves last, if they even put themselves on the agenda at all! It’s about time we reclaimed our identities (and sanity) with a little me-time. 5 Ways for Moms to Pamper Themselves I came up with 5 ways you can pamper yourself on a daily or weekly basis that don’t really take more than an hour or two each. Perfect for when you can steal a few minutes or Keep Reading
Easy Themed Weeknight Meal – Manwich Mondays!
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Manwich for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine. As a mom of three young children, I’ve learned that anything I can do to make my life easier is the way to go. Recently, I was turned onto the concept of planning your weekly meals using theme nights. The basic premise is simple – you just choose a type of meal or cuisine and pair it with a night of the week that makes the most sense (or that rhymes!). We started with Taco Tuesdays and added Pizza Fridays, and this week we added a third theme night – Manwich Mondays. At first I thought it Keep Reading

I have a couple of good friends who live in NYC, and when we visit, I need something fun for the kids to do. Enter a website called Vimbly. Vimbly is an up-and-coming resource for people looking for things to do in cities around the U.S. Some cities, like New York City, Keep Reading
Cute & Modern Baby Announcements & Invitations
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Basic Invite. All opinions are 100% my own. As you know, I love sharing cute things I find online. In particular, I’m a sucker for all things baby. My youngest just grew out of the baby stage, so I find myself constantly looking at the baby outfits at Target, reviewing my friends’ baby registries while reminiscing, and thinking about what it would be like to have a fourth. While we aren’t quite ready for that, I am having fun helping a couple friends plan the arrivals of their little ones. Today I have the pleasure of reviewing a Keep Reading
MOMZY Review – Online Shopping Recommendations for Busy Moms
This is a sponsored post on behalf of MOMZY. All opinions are my own. Today I’m excited about a new find. It’s a website called MOMZY, and it’s right up my ally. You may have seen my old series called WhatMommyLOVES. It was a series of posts about products that I couldn’t live without (sanity-saving type stuff). MOMZY is kind of along the same lines, except there are lots of moms giving you advice & online shopping recommendations instead of just me. :) What is MOMZY All About? MOMZY is a sort of social network / online window shopping service all in one. You can sign up using Keep Reading
How to Make Printable Picture Collages Online
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Poster My Wall. All opinions are 100% mine. Ever since I was a teenager, I’ve been putting together collages for my walls. Back then, it was printed photos from a disposable camera mashed up with pictures and images I cut out from teen magazines. :) These days you don’t have to do all of that to have a nice collage. Websites exist that allow you to upload pictures and create a custom collage fairly easily. How to Make Picture Collages Online One way you can easily create photo collages is with the website Poster My Keep Reading
UPS #WishesDelivered – Make a Wish on Behalf of Someone Else
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of UPS. All opinions are 100% mine. In the United States, alone, the Dept of Health and Human Services estimates that there are over 100,000 orphans. These are not just children out of their home because their parents are not equipped to take care of them. These are children who do not have parents trying to get them back. They can't. Just thinking about this makes me want to cry. I look at my three little ones and can't imagine them not having a parent to care for them. I feel like we put so much continuous work into molding our Keep Reading
Zillow Guest Post: Do Short-Term Renters Need Insurance?
This is a sponsored post written by Zillow. I know many families who rent homes on a short-term basis. This often happens when the family relocates to a new city for a job opportunity, but either still has their old home mortgage to cover until the home sells OR simply because they want to take their time choosing a new place to live. Sometimes you just don't know an area until you've lived there a while. When Zillow approached me about guest posting - I asked for a piece on short term rental insurance. It's not a sexy topic, but an important one. Enjoy the guest post and let me know if Keep Reading

In fact, the average family in a single family home spends $2,200 on energy bills each year, according to Energy Star. What’s Keep Reading
React Mobile Personal Safety App
Ever since I became a mom, my Spidey senses are on high alert at all times. I don’t look at strangers the same way. Every person on the street is a potential abductor. I see the danger in every situation. The person tailgating me might crash into the back of my van where my daughter sits if the old lady in front of me decides to slow way down… I'm always trying to think ahead to “what might happen.” I guess you could say I’m always thinking of the worst possible situation and hoping for the best. I think every mom feels this way. We’re all trying to protect our precious Keep Reading
