February 8, 2010 by Kimberly · 26 Comments
I don’t have any more babies, but I still interact with a lot of new and expecting moms – on a professional and a personal basis. When I was sent a Baby Bunch Baby Bouquet to review, I ended up giving it to one of the newest “moms in the city” who has an [...]

During college many moons ago, I worked at a variety of jobs. One of my favorite was working as a back-up babysitter for a certain celebrity’s four kids. (Hint: star of Tootsie) I have never been someone who is impressed by celebrity – which is probably why I got the job – BUT [...]

I really like InStyle magazine. I usually buy it off the newsstand at the start of each season just to get an idea of what’s out there fashion and beauty-wise. I especially like their September/fall fashion issues. I bought one at the airport when I was going to General Mills in MN [...]
Education Helpers: U-PLAY MAT and LeapFrog TAG
September 17, 2009 by Kimberly · 3 Comments
Although I have “issues” with the current educational system in our country, I’m definitely a big fan of education. I am definitely not one of those parents who expect their kids to learn everything in school. I definitely believe that one of my “roles” as a mom is to nurture a love of [...]
Kindergarten Teachers’ School Supplies List
September 10, 2009 by Kimberly · 6 Comments
This is the second year that I have needed to buy school supplies for Michael. Each year gets a bit easier. Last year was a bit stressful, because the list was ambiguous regarding sizes / brands / etc. My only challenge this year is that I didn’t receive the list until last [...]
