Alyson may not have teeth but she can still down snacks like nobody’s business! These Parent’s Choice Little Puffs are great, because they dissolve very easily. That way I don’t have to worry about her choking on them. They also let her practice picking up small pieces of food with her fingers. They come [...]
I have to admit, ever since I began supplementing Alyson with formula, I’ve been a bit of a formula snob. I always bought name brand and never once thought about getting store brand. I think I subconsciously I thought it wasn’t as good as the name-brand. But babies go through A LOT of formula. [...]
As a bzz agent through bzzagent.com, I was happy to get the Private Selections campaign. I’m a big believer that store brands are just as good as the name brand products. My kit included 3 free coupons to try one appetizer, one pizza, and one dessert. Eric and I headed to Kroger’s and [...]
It’s hard to believe that it’s been 4 months since Alyson joined our little family. It seems like it was just yesterday! She’s growing so fast too, it seems like everyday she’s doing something new (just last week she rolled from her stomach to her back for the first time). In two more months she’ll [...]
I am notorious for being clumsy when I eat. It never fails that by the end of a snack or meal I have ended up with something on my shirt. My most recent stain escapade was with a tomato based sauce on one of my maternity shirts. I washed it as quickly as I [...]

This isn’t actually everything we bought, but I didn’t feel like dragging it all out to take a picture. So I just snapped one of the soaps before I put them up. This week Kroger had Softsoap on sale 10 for $10. I had $0.35 off coupons, that doubled to $0.70 cents. So I got [...]

You may have noticed that the blog has gotten an overhaul theme wise. I went from a free theme (Mystique) to a premium theme (WP-Prolific). I’m really happy with the layout, even though I still have some tweaking to do. There are a lot more personalization options that I’m still getting set just the way [...]

Thanks to BzzAgent I was given the opportunity to try out the Comforts brand of diapers and wipes that is sold exclusively at the Kroger family of stores. I was given a tub of wipes, a voucher for a free pack of diapers, and a pair of sippy cups. We didn’t get to try the [...]
