Baby J now greets me standing up in his crib when I go to get him from his naps. I just love when baby's do this, it is so darling! :-) By the way, he is 9 months old now.



My families health is very important to me. Over the past few years I have learned so much about the everyday products we use and how harmful some of them can be. Everyday we eat, this is a fact. What we are eating and what we are preparing our food in is vital to our health. I am excited to share with you the amazing features of Xtrema cookware by Ceramcor.

The Edge Brownie Pan is 9" x 12" and made of professional grade, heavy-gauge cast aluminum. It has a durable nonstick coating and round, easy-to-clean corners. The single-chamber design allows the batter to be easily spread. The Edge Brownie Pan comes with a recipe booklet and nylon spatula. The recipe booklet also tells you everything you need to know about caring for your pan as well as warranty information.
I used 1 box of Betty Crocker Cookie Brownie Bars mix in my pan. At first I was worried there wasn't enough mix to cover the bottom of the pan, but indeed there was! The Edge Brownie Pan is made to fit most standard brownie mixes.
I baked these brownies for 25 minutes. The box said 35-40 minutes, but I prefer my brownies be a bit moist on the inside. The end result was amazing! The brownies had a nice crisp (not hard) edge, chewy center and flaky top. They were PERFECT! I loved how easily the shape of the Edge Pan allowed for cutting up each portion as well. So nice!


Scholastic Book Clubs are the easiest and most affordable way to find and order the books kids love.

Every school year my children have participated in the Book It Program. Did you know that you qualify for enrollment even if you are a homeschool family? Enrollment ended on June 30th, however on Book It's site it says they are still accepting applications on a first come first serve basis. I just enrolled my kiddos today and am hoping it went through. I completely forgot to enroll them this year! Yikes.

I LOVE the products Joovy has to offer! Joovy is an American family gear company offering extraordinary quality with great value for today's parents. Joovy's line of products includes strollers, play yards, toys, and high chairs. Joovy products are made with a unique, stylish appeal and excellent functionality.
I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to try out Joovy's new Nook highchair! The Nook highchair comes fully assembled which was a big plus when it arrived at my home. Right away I was impressed by the design. The Nook is a full size highchair but is designed for compact storage. This is wonderful for those of us who have cramped dining space. My first thought when seeing how compact the Nook folds down is that it would be an awesome highchair for Churches. Our Church could store 4 Nook highchairs in less space then 1 of their current full size highchairs! Then I thought about Grandparents...what a great highchair to have at Grandma and Grandpas house! They could store the Nook in the coat closet and not lose much space.
The Nook highchair when folded is only 28" long, 24" wide, and 9.5 inches thick! It folds nice and flat. Simply push the sliding button to the side, lift the handle and the whole highchair folds to a compact state, tray and all! Literally takes no effort at all to do this! To open, you pull the handle up and the Nook highchair opens almost on it's own. So easy!

Have you gone green? Have you been doing your part to ensure you leave a healthy planet for future generations? If you are striving for a healthier environment for your family then you will love what you find at Eden Home! They have taken the blah out of organic and recycled products and offer a whole line of stylish and fun organic, all-natural and eco-friendly products for the home, baby, kids, and more!
Organic foods are common place, organic cotton is en vogue. But what happens to cotton and other ingredients after they're harvested matters too. Many chemicals are introduced during the manufacturing of everyday products like clothes and soaps. Those chemicals come into contact with your skin when you dress, bathe or sleep.
Most people don't realize how clothing is processed and finished. As many as 2000 different chemicals are used in the textile industry! Those chemicals are left on clothing then transferred to you or your baby when absorbed through the skin.
The Garden of Eden was created to be lovely and beautiful, perfect and pure.
That's why we started Eden Home: to offer natural home products that are as organic and pure as can be because they are produced as naturally as can be. But we have an eye on the luxury and visual appeal of our products too. The purity is possible without losing the beauty, whether you're shopping for organic clothes for baby, natural bath towels or organic cookware.
Eden Home was founded by two working moms who know what they like. Our natural products are classic in style, luxurious in feel, and delightful to smell or caress. Even our all-natural shampoos. Our founders' taste is apparent throughout the site, appealing to busy mothers who want to make organic choices for their families without sacrificing comfort or looks.
Eden Home offers the most comprehensive selection of natural home products, and we continually expand our selection to maintain our position as the leader in natural luxury. Browse our selection of organic clothes for baby or organic cookware, or dress up your bath with natural bath towels. If it's organic and stylish, you'll find it at Eden Home.
The organic cotton in Plover's linens comes from non-genetically engineered seeds grown in soil that is free of pesticides, herbicides or other cytotoxins. Cotton is among one of the most chemically treated crops! This is why buying organic cotton is so important especially when it comes to items your family uses on a daily basis.Plover table linens also are made using a hydrogen peroxide bleaching process and only low-impact, fiber reactive dyes. These dyes form a strong bond with the cotton fiber and have excellent colorfastness, but contain no heavy metals.

I love the quality of these linens. They are nice and thick. I can tell they will last my family many, many years. I also love the rich colors. The tablecloth and napkins look stunning together and make my dining area beautiful!

Little E loves Pooh Bear. Kohls had these for only $5 a couple weeks ago and so my husband and I bought E one. He LOVES his new pooh and takes him everywhere and sleeps with him just as he does his favorite blankie (to the left of him). :-)
If you are a homemaker then you have probably owned and used various items from Wilton. Wilton is the industry leader in cake decorating, quality bakeware and food crafting. It has been helping people make delicious creations for their families since 1929!UltraGold Bakeware Features:

Oversized Handles for Easy Lifting

Available Sizes:

My Experience:
I was sent a few pieces of the various sized UltraGold bakeware pans. Right away I could tell these pans were superior in quality. They have a super smooth finish and are nice and sturdy. I love that the pan sizes are labeled on the handles. This helps ensure you are using the right size pan every time!
My pans arrived just in time for my oldest sons 10th birthday. My son was excited that mom would be baking his cake this year. I let him choose the cake he wanted out of a party book we own. He chose the Critter Cake much to my dismay. This would not have been my choice, but he is a boy so I can understand why he likes it. ;-)
This was my first experience creating a double layer cake. I must say I was a bit nervous about putting it together, but there was no need to worry. The cakes baked up beautifully in the UltraGold pans ! After baking I let the cakes cool a bit and then took them out of the pans. The cakes came right out with no effort on my end. So easy! This was a huge relief. I was completely impressed!

Everything from the baking to decorating went perfectly and the end result was one buggy birthday cake! My son loved it!
I look forward to making many more wonderful creations for my family with the UltraGold pans! Thank you Wilton!
I like the Luscious Lemon apron the best!
