These are actually from the last few weeks, since I didn't post last week! You will be happy to know that there is a lot of Shaun cuteness to share this time!!


This is what we call his 'Home Alone face'. He says this is his new favorite movie, and the best Christmas movie ever....I supp…

I know what you're thinking...another blog post today!? I saw this fun linkup on another blog I follow, and had to join the fun! It's all about celebrity sightings!! Unfortunately, I don't have pictures for most of these (at my house anyway!), so you'll have to take my word for it!…

I am really excited about the latest company on the Holiday Gift Guide. As I had said before I started, my main goal was to focus on small businesses and direct sales companies for these reviews.

That's right, we are excited to share that we will be welcoming baby #2 into our family. I have my first doctor's appointment next month, and …

A few months back, I brought you a review and giveaway from my lovely sponsor- Linda Menke, Independent Lilla Rose Consultant. If you missed that review, click here to read my full thoughts on these wonderful products! Since that review, I have continued to use my Lilla Rose Flexi Clips nearly eve…

Oh what a busy week this has been! Lots going on and lots of pictures to share! 

Probably the biggest event of the week was the Colts game! It was mine and Shaun's first ever professional sporting event! If you watched the game, you already know it was a tribute to the troops. Matt actually pa…
