My husband isn't one for wearing cologne that often, that is, until we go out for a night on the town.  While he doesn't wear it much to the office or while lounging around the house, he always smells great when we paint the town red.

Now, I'll admit that while I like the cologne he currently wears, I don't necessarily love it.  So when Michael ran out of cologne recently, I wanted to surprise him with two of the most popular men's colognes for fall from top designers, Nautica and Guess.

One of my all-time favorite books as a child was The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle.  As a matter of fact, once I found out I was pregnant, one of the first things I bought for Riley was a copy of The Very Hungry Caterpillar and a large stuffed plush of the caterpillar himself.

To this day, she still loves it when we read this story together, especially the part about the caterpillar eating so much that he gets a tummy ache.

Riley even had a few toys from The Very Hungry Caterpillar Early Learning System when she was a baby, namely the Developmental Ladybug.  We had that toy hung from her baby carrier, her car seat and even her crib and it never failed to thrill and delight!

Now that Riley is almost 4 years old, I've had to part with many of the playthings she had as a baby, but I actually hung on to the Developmental Ladybug so that I'll never forget how much she loved it and used to play with this particular toy.

The World of Eric Carle has recently introduced four brand new additions to their The Very Hungry Caterpillar Early Learning System and I had the chance to review them.  Keep reading to learn more!

With childhood obesity quickly reaching epidemic proportions in our country, I think it is in everyone's best interest to teach healthy eating habits to our kiddos.  While the food pyramid is an effective visualization tool for learning basic nutrition, sometimes it's helpful to bring the lessons directly to where they are put into practice...on our plates.

That's why I was thrilled to learn of a brand new game designed for children ages 4 years old and up from Learning Resources, entitled Healthy Helpings MyPlate Game.  Keep reading to learn more about a fun, family way to make good nutrition a top priority!

As you may remember reading in a previous post, I was lucky enough to be chosen as a Maytag Dependable Laundry Mom!  With that designation comes the perk of trying out the new Maytag Bravos XL High-Efficiency Top Loading Washer and Steam Dryer in my own home.

Now that I'm a work-at-home mom, I require a completely different uniform than what I used to wear in an office setting.  The perfect "mom uniform" in my opinion, is something that looks sharp and stylish, yet is comfortable, practical and versatile enough for a variety of tasks.

High quality fitness wear is ideal for a work-at-home mom's uniform because it looks great while grocery shopping, playing with your children at the park, running various errands around town or getting your daily exercise at the gym.

Of course, with any form of exercise, mobility and comfort can make the difference between thoroughly enjoying your activity and watching the clock as to when it will end.  Thankfully, I had the opportunity to review four pieces of fitness wear from Mondetta Performance Gear.  Keep reading to learn much more!
