People ask me all the time about what I can't live without for the babies. And I'm not really sure that there are just a couple...that's why I have the Baby Favorites Gallery. But there are definitely a few things that my sleep deprived brain is so thankful for! Gina Ford is my hero. She wrote a series of books starting with The Contented Little Baby: The Simple Secrets of...
So I started the week talking about out of the box gifts to give (inspired by my brilliant sisters). But I also have a BRILLIANT sister-in-law (I actually have a few fabulous sister-in-laws), but one of them happened to give Addie & Hayden this amazing photo book for their birthdays. This is a quick flip sample of the first few pages. Addie & Hayden's ABC Book by Hugs & Kisses...
I'm not sure I can really call this a Wordless Wednesday, how about WORDY Wednesday....I mean I didn't EXACTLY take this photograph (does scanning into one's computer count???) But I just had to share it! This was inside of the recent Spanx package I opened...is this not HYSTERICAL! Can you imagine doing ANY of those things in Spanx??? Not thinking I'm jumping from a burning building anytime soon, but I...
If you know me, you know I'm not crafty. Others in my family are, and are really good at it, but I'm not. But I do like to do little things that make me feel like I'm a part of the handmade world, or that just make something feel special. I've always been a sucker for stationary, gift tags, note cards, anything and everything paper related. I love to write...
My youngest sister is brilliant. Beautiful, creative, talented.....BRILLIANT! And she can give a good gift card gift! So often we struggle with what to buy someone for their birthday, Christmas, anniversary, you name the occasion and we have all scratched our heads endlessly trying to think of the perfect gift....and panicked when we get to the night before with still nothing. (OK - maybe some of you perfect folks have...
Today is a little different than normal. We may have a few extra friends stopping by to say "Hello" at My Favorite Everything because today is...My SITS Featured Blogger Day! For those that have no idea what that means, SITS is a ridiculously, crazy supportive group that introduces you to other fabulously fun blogs, and today is the day for My Favorite Everything's introduction! Talk about a Favorite Day! Thank...
This really will be a Wordless Wednesday because these photos speak for themselves! Sandy Heit has been taking our family photos and the girls newborn photos for 3 years now, and TRUST ME we have not made it easy for her! So if we can get shots like these, under the circumstances we put her in, she is MOST DEFINITELY A FAVORITE in my book! I hope you will have...
Wouldn't it be great to just look at a menu of what was in your freezer and be able to pull out 1 of many different dinners you had already made ahead of time and know that in 20 min to an hour it could be on the table with no extra prep work??? Oh well, one can always dream.... Dream Dinners that is!!! OK that was TOTALLY a corny...
I'm slowly getting back up to full speed, well maybe half speed. It's definitely taking longer than I planned. Not that I need to "recover", it's just the balance and finding the time. Normally I have evenings to work after the kids are in bed, but right now I have lost the ability to keep my eyes open past 8:30. That's A LOT of lost work hours!! Plus the days...
OK, OK, it's time to let the secret out of the bag... If Kelly Ripa is going to be honest, I might as well tell you too. For everyone that wondered how I had a baby and a few minutes later my hair was "perfect" ... (if you say so) And HOW I can get it all done in a day??? You TOO can use this FAVORITE!! (Disclosure, I found...
