Emmy Rossum's new CD #SentimentalJourney

What music is your flavor?  I like a little of everything.  Lately, I've been enjoying the throw-back sounds some artist are coming out with.  The songs that pay homage to the old sounds of musicians breaking through traditional sounds for something new.  I always find it interesting when an artist takes the leap and the risk of trying to explore these artists sounds in their own way.

Nuby Comfort Orthodontic Pacifier Giveaway

I don't know how many times I have both lost and found pacifiers in the most random places.  This makes winning a few extra's a total bonus in my book!  I don't know about you but having a good pacifier can be a saving grace on a fussy day and as a daycare provider, when a parent forgets the pacifier for a kid who love's their pacifier it can spell disaster so I keep a few extra's on board.  This makes Nuby's Giveaway for their comfort orthodontic pacifier right up my, and many of your, alley!  Check out this awesome Giveaway put on by Nuby! www.facebook.com/nubyusa

Perfective Ceuticals Review



As a mom my skin seems to age faster.  I'm not sure if it's the lack of care once provided, the stress from having kids and their uncanny ability to find new ways to make our hearts stop, or actual age.  Whatever the reason, it provides a constant quest for products to help stop, heal, or maybe even give back a few of the years my skin has lost.

Aveetia Botanical Review

PhotobucketAs a mom I get a lot of aches and pains from the bending, twisting, turning, and general acrobatics that are required of an active mom. My kids don't stop moving and neither do the one's in my daycare. So, I usually end up needing something to help me ease those joints. I don't like to use stuff that is going to somehow effect the kids because it is containing a direct med so I try to look for natural products instead.

AMF Bowling Review

PhotobucketFamily night and we are facing another night of Finding Nemo or Cars 2, awesome.  As good as those movies are when you've seen them a million times, they can loose their luster.  So, looking for something fun we can all do I hit the internet!

Juppy Review: Start the New Year walking!

PhotobucketDo you have a little one that is starting to walk?  How about a starter walker that you want to take to the beach, on a hike, or some other uneven surface?  Chances are, if you do, you will end up hunched over to help your little one. Can you say hello to back pain?  I can!  We love to go hiking so finding a way to keep my little walker walking and my back pain free is a must!

After Holiday fashion in style!

This post brought to you by No nonsense. All opinions are 100% mine.

I love to look good during the winter.  It is my favorite time of year because it's sweater season.  Problem is that those wonderful snug fitting sweaters don't always look the same after a few fruit cakes and sugar cookies.  So, I have to find a different way to show off my sweaters with out showing off the curves us woman don't like to talk about.  I  decided that the best way to do that is with some nice contour enhancing items.

I decided to go with a fun sweater dress look.  I love the red color with Valentine Day coming up.  Next to contour my extra parts with some No nonsense tights and leggings.  I love that these black leggings are in slimming black, don't give notice to any mom developed cellulite in my legs and smooth out the places the cookies and cake have decided to winter this year on my body.  For me this look is comfortable and lets me go from hanging out with the kids, aka running after them constantly, to go out on a date with the hubby and still look mom-a-licious! 

I'm not the only person who loves a little No Nonsense in their life even Jill Martin, often seen interviewing those tough athletes on TV is a No Nonsense Woman!  I love these affordable tights and leggings and total bonus they can be found at almost any drugstore or food store so you won't break the bank or have to make an extra trip to grab some.

I'm a fan, No nonsense on Facebook!  What fashions could use a little No Nonsense in your life?  Help me think up some new looks!
