The nurse told me that he banged his leg over the weekend and the playground hit made it hurt more then ice can handle. I told her no. I … [Read more...]

Pregnancy Questions: Midwife or Doctor
By 15 Comments

I love that midwives stay with you from the moment you walk into the hospital to the moment you walk out. When I was in labor with Johnny I wanted the 20+ people in the room out and didn't know how to … [Read more...]

Cuisinart Frozen Yogurt, Ice Cream & Sorbet Maker from Hayneedle! Review & Giveaway!
I learned about Hayneedle about two years ago. I was in awe with the online selection of products they carried. Being a product reviewer I was aware of some similar sites but normally on those sites I learned while they carried a big list of items they had limited choices once you knew what you were looking for. Until you went to Hayneedle. Not only do they have an amazing selection of products … [Read more...]
