Vicks VapoRub 8 Hour Playdate at Recess Dumbo in Brooklyn, NY

I just returned from an amazing 8-Hour Playdate with VICKS VapoRub in Brooklyn, NY. I was able to bring Sawyer with me, and we called it our "City Adventure." This adventure was also Sawyer's first trip into the big city! The 8-Hour Playdate was held at Recess Dumbo in Brooklyn, NY. We were so pleased to see such a warm, playful setting for Sawyer. I knew instantly we were in for a fun day! … [Read more...]

Whole Foods Market has Opened in Boston’s South End

This time last year I was just starting to pay attention to food. Not just the calories, the food groups, etc but the actual food. I started paying less attention to the numbers and started paying more attention to the ingredients and where they came from. Once you start educating yourself on what is really on your plate (or your kids plate!) it's hard to unlearn some things and you realize you … [Read more...]

My #BlogHer12 Highlights! Finally! NYC!

I know this post took a bit. I came home so exhausted from BogHer12 that it took a few days to get any energy back and get use to my new laptop since TSA smashed my old one. Thanks again United.  As you know I went to BlogHer thanks to my awesome sponsor Contours Baby! Sarah and I just loved wearing our shirts all over! I handed out 50 of these USB's while I was there.

The Chicago Bean

Last week I went to Kolcraft in Chicago with Sarah, Christine, and Valerie. (Shared a little here, read especially if you'll be at BlogHer) Kolcraft did a great job at letting us see the city.

I had to take a picture with sweet little Sawyer … [Read more...]

But be warmed people line up. It's … [Read more...]

T. J. Maxx & Marshalls Event in Boston

Last Wednesday I took off for Boston for a TJ Maxx & Marshalls Event. Since I live in Western, MA I decided to drive as it would be faster then flying. Karen from 3 Garnets & 2 Sapphires lived on my way so I picked her up and she became my sidekick for the event. When going to these events, especially the bigger ones, it's great to know someone. We spent the night at the Fairmont Copley … [Read more...]
