Our Thoughts on the Leapster Explorer {Review}
If you're new here, I hope you'll subscribe to my RSS feed so you won't miss any fantastic giveaways! :)
About a year ago I thrifted an old-school Leapfrog Leapster for my daughter, and it was a total hit with her! It was old old OLD, too – one of the first models, big and bulky and gray. I don’t even think you can find it anywhere anymore. Although it was touch screen, it wasn’t...

Melted Crayons Art Tutorial – Touchable Alphabet & Numbers Poster
What to do with tons of crayons? Especially those cheap brand crayons that don’t work as well as Crayola crayons?
Try this! Get a candle or tea light, peel the paper off your crayons, and get some good thick paper. I used watercolor paper. Then hold the end of the crayon over the flame (not in the flame, it’ll burn the crayon).
Quickly put the crayon to paper! You’ll have...

YA Book Review: Revealing Eden by Victoria Foyt
First, let me say that I’m loving the new flood of dystopian novels coming into the young adult fiction market. I loved The Hunger Games and can’t wait to see what comes in its wake! The first book on my list of new(ish) dystopians is Revealing Eden by Victoria Foyt.
Revealing Eden has an interesting premise. First, it takes place in the future, when the world has been ravaged by...

Emma’s Memory Quilt: From Baby Clothes to Heirloom Quilt!
I’m one of those moms who can’t bear to see certain things go after my kids grow out of them. Isaac’s first tiny booties. Emma’s sweet classic Pooh bib with the ruffle. Some of our favorite onesies and baby blankets. There are some things that are irreplaceable, you know? You have pictures, but being able to touch them really brings the memories flooding back.
For...

Getting Your Child Involved in Toy Organization (How I Conquered the Clutter!)
Okay, I don’t have a “before” photo for you, but I’m sure you can use your imagination and picture in your mind what it looked like. Legos, play food, small animals, stuffed animals everywhere in Emma’s room! I was trying to keep all of her toys in her little wooden IKEA toy box, and it so wasn’t working. First, not all her toys would fit in it, and second,...

Happy First Birthday to Isaac!
My little guy is 1 year old today. It has been quite the journey getting to the big ONE.
I wondered if I would survive his babyhood. He was not an easy baby! In part, that might be because he wanted to be held constantly.
It was tiring, but also… well, he’s a cuddle-bug! How can I not love that? He can be rocked to sleep, he loves to nestle his little head into my neck. He...

My Biggest Thrift Shopping Adventure To Date!
Do you like to thrift shop? I admit that I don’t have a lot of guts when it comes to elbowing people for a good deal, or showing up at the right times during the week to get the best deals. I don’t always know where to go, who to talk to, or even what a good deal is.
Well actually, I know more after today. You see, I’ve been thinking of getting some summer clothes for Emma...

The First Snow of the Winter!
Is there anything more exciting than waking up in the morning and seeing SNOW? Especially when you thought you wouldn’t get any snow this winter (I gave up hoping after Christmas)…
The first day it did stick but I wasn’t able to get a good picture before it melted. But later I took the kids out to play in the snow flurries. Isaac wasn’t sure what to think of it at first…
