This is a sponsored post via Latina Bloggers Connect. Back when I lived in Philadelphia, I had been part of round one of lay offs for a company where the recession was just hitting. It sucked. I was young and completely lost on what I was going to do. When I finally decided to pursue being a Paralegal as a career, I had my first interview at a non-profit Immigration Law Office. I didn't have … [Read more...]
It's 103 today and summer has not even begun! Living in Sunny SoCal can be very hot in the summer, so when the kiddos are home on summer break you wrack your brain looking for things to do in southern California with kids and ways to not only have fun but stay cool. For us the answer comes at Knott's Soak City. Last year, I didn't get to go cause I was traveling so much but this year, I am … [Read more...]
I have this really bad way of dealing with things that I either find way too emotionally hurting or confusing. I ignore them. I know... I know, I'm an idiot. Working on it. So now that you know a little about me... let's begin. When I was about 13/14 yrs old, I met my father. It wasn't the first time, it was just the first time I could actually remember it. All I knew about he and my mother was … [Read more...]
A few weeks ago, I was invited to check out what's coming to Knott's Berry Farm this summer by participating in an exclusive- invite only Hard Hat tour of the new Boardwalk and Log Ride. Now, you guys know that my family and I are huge fans of the park...so I was thrilled to be checking out what goes on behind the scenes! When we entered the Mystery Lodge, our hard hats awaited us … [Read more...]
The first thing I hear every Saturday morning is the sound of my daughter's feet dashing from her bedroom to ours. Pat-pat-pat she sprints down the hall and then I hear her feet grow softer. That's when I realize she is standing over my head. "Good Morning Mommy! I'm hungry!" That is my wakeup call for the day to begin. I usually glance at the clock and beg it to say something different than it … [Read more...]
This post is part of a sponsored series as part of the Colief Colic Council. A few days ago, I measured my daughter against the door frame, as we do every few months. As I watched her glee of having grown just a little taller, I remembered a time when she was still tiny enough to be cradled in my arms and how I would smell that glorious baby smell from the top of her head. Now I have to beg her … [Read more...]
Last night, I sat with my big glass of milk and watched the Billboard Latino Awards. I saddled up for an amazing show full of incredible performances and crossing my fingers that my favorites walked home with an award. I got so overwhelmed with emotion watching the Jenni Rivera tribute and so excited when Prince Royce, who I mentioned I was hoping would win, won several awards including … [Read more...]
This post is brought to you by: Cocoon Kids. For a long time, I kept myself uninformed about all the security apps out there for kids online. I didn't think I needed it, I mean, Sofia is only 5 yrs old...and I'm always with her when she uses either the computer or the iPad, so I was good! Yea, right! Just like thousands of other kids her age, Sofia learned how to operate the internet within a … [Read more...]
There are some staples I use in my life practically every day. Things that I just automatically reach for anytime I am at Target. In fact, I am so devoted to these brands- I don't list the item on our shopping list, I list the brand. I was recently sent a box full of P&G's Most Loved products and when I opened the box, I let out a little squeal. Not only were my favorites in there, but … [Read more...]
My family of three is your typical, modern family. We get up early, get ready for our day and we all run around trying to get everything done by, oh, 8am. Ha. That means usually my husband and I are up at 630 to get breakfast, coffee, lunch ready, more coffee, and then we start on our daughter to get her up and moving. That's just the morning! We are a family that needs fuel, and not just any … [Read more...]
