Do you know how hard it is to keep a secret for over a month about something you have seen that is AMAZING? That's what I have felt like every day since we were invited to attend a very intimate event with Walt Disney Studios to get an insider's peek into the upcoming live-action reboot of The Jungle Book. The event was hosted by Alan Horn, Chairman of Walt Disney Stusios and Jon Favreau, who … [Read more...]

Completing Our Family With A Shelter Pet #StartAStoryAdopt
I’m sharing #StartAStoryAdopt in my life as part of a Shelter Pet Project by Ad Council sponsored series for Socialstars™ My mom once told me, you don't pick the pet, the pet picks you.

While two of them were given to us, Finn, my sweet baby boy (who also happens to be the biggest, most cuddly one of the bunch), came from a local shelter. I … [Read more...]

Holiday Travels and Memories with #NoSickDays
This is a sponsored post as a Vicks Ambassador. All thoughts are my own. It’s beginning to look a lot like….A….A….ACHOO.

When Holidays and Parenting Go Wrong #DaddysHome
If there was ever one misconception I had about parenthood, it’s that I thought parents had it all figured out. I always assumed that anyone who wanted to be a parent was an expert on all things about having kids and that every parenting “instinct” just kicks in the second you turn into a mom or dad. I was SO WRONG. I learned parenting is a learn-as-you-go job, and just when you think you have got … [Read more...]

Join Kmart and St. Jude’s To Fight Childhood Cancer With The Giving Hat™
This post is sponsored by Kmart as a K-Club Ambassador. All thoughts are my own. I was really young the first time I ever saw a commercial for St. Jude's, probably younger than my daughter's age right now. Until that moment, I didn't know kids could get cancer, and I barely even knew there was such a thing as cancer. As I grew older, the more I found out about St Jude's and the work they do, … [Read more...]
