I love date night. I try to plan one at least once a month, or sometimes more if I can squeeze it into the budget. (A babysitter for 4 kids adds up!) Date night usually means dinner and a movie for us or maybe a show at the Fox Theatre, but sometimes it’s fun to […]
Have you tried McDonald’s #FishMcBites? Want to?
I know. I know. I’m supposed to feed my kids organic, free range, whole grain foods but every once in awhile you gotta go through a drive-thru (or spend an hour in the play area). I believe in moderation in all things, and that includes fast food. So when my friends at McDonald’s asked me […]
Barbie + Mega Bloks= Awesome!
I was thrilled when my friends at MomSelect and MommyParties and asked me to host some girls for a Mega Bloks Barbie party. And if I was thrilled my five year old daughter was over the moon! We were sent the Build n’ Style Luxury Mansion and Build n’ Style Pool Party and 10 Build […]
Review: Yo Gabba Gabba! Live! Get the Sillies Out!
If you take your kids to one performance, take them to see Yo Gabba Gabba! It is one of those shows that walks the precarious line between being fun for the kids and amusing for their parents. It’s cute without being sticky sweet and funny enough for all age groups. The songs are just plain […]

Note to self (& ALL moms): Quit Complaining!
I wrote a post recently about how hard it is to have kids in the baby stage (5 and under). My woe-is-me article was all about how I just have to accept that life is hard and crazy with a houseful of kids and that I just have to endure these physically demanding years. I […]
