**This giveaway is now closed! Congrats to stiner0305!** 8 Simple Rules (originally known as 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter) was one sitcom that I didn’t miss. Needless to say, I jumped at the chance to review 8 Simple Rules Season 2. 8 Simple Rules is about a married couple with three children, set in a Detriot, Michigan suburb. The father, Paul Hennessy (John Ritter), is a sportswriter who is prompted by his wife Cate’s (Katey Sagal) return to nursing to take a more active role in raising their two teenage daughters, Bridget (Kaley Cuoco), and Kerry (Amy Davidson), and their son Rory (Martin Spanjers). He is soon overwhelmed by the responsibility of being... [more]

I want to share with you all a little story about the good folks over at Skuut. It was just over a week ago that Nyko from Skuut emailed me. She had been checking in with the comments (Yes! Sponsors DO read the comments you leave!) and there were a few comments that struck a chord. Guess what? Nyko was kind enough to send those 2 readers a Skuut bike! How great is that? It warms my heart that there is still this good karma out there! Congrats to all 3 of the Skuut bike winners!  Read More →

**This giveaway is now closed. Congrats to PennyPincher!** I have had the absolute pleasure of “meeting” Melissa from Sweet Words Boutique. She’s also the Etsy Store owner of Sweet Words. What a dear she is, as well as oh-so talented! Melissa had come across Seeryus Mama and was wondering if I would be interested in reviewing a skirt and hairbow for Pea. After taking a peek at her Etsy store, I was hooked! Clippies, tutus, skirts, warmers and more! All of it, just too darn sweet for words! Pictured above (please excuse the can of nuts, she wouldn’t part with them!), Pea is wearing the Twirly Girly Skirt and Hairbow. I just love the skirt it’s a patchwork... [more]

What should arrive in the mail, but the most perfect bag ev-ah! It’s the Slide Diaper Bag from Go GaGa! Not only is it excellent looking, but it’s comfortable! Say goodbye to those diaper bag straps that dig into or fall off of your shoulders. Forever! The Slide eases neck and shoulder pain with their patented ergonomic strap that distributes the weight of the bag across your back. It’s the look of a messenger bag, but so much more! In fact, you wouldn’t even have to use this as a diaper bag at all! Use it as a laptop bag, carry books, workout gear or whatever your heart desires! Some of the features that I’m loving so much are the stroller straps, hang the bag... [more]

I am so excited to be a part of this book tour! Obama: The Historic Journey -A Young Readers Edition couldn’t have come to our door at a better time. Johnny had just decided that he was going to write his report on President Obama and needed information. In our household, our children are allowed to be their own person when it comes to politics. I don’t shove my ideas or believes upon them. I want them to choose their own path. That being said, I can not be any more thrilled with Johnny’s left wing leanings. Because this book is a young reader’s edition, it was easy for Johnny to find information and was presented in a way that he understood. (As a side note, he did receive... [more]

My goal, should I choose to accept it (because I haven’t yet!) to get fit. It’s going to take a while, but I will do it. No with the help of the FitBook. Fitbook is a fitness journal of sorts. It takes you step by step. The Fitbook keeps it real, you make a game plan, and you stick to that game plan. My goal? I want to be able to walk from 5:00 PM to 7:00AM for the Relay for Life in August. Not a big goal, but I’m taking baby steps, okay? So, you start out with your goal and you track your progress every day for 12 weeks. By setting a 12 week goal and tracking every day, you aren’t so much focusing on the big picture, rather, you are focusing on that day only. ... [more]

It started out with a Klondike bar… And boy howdy was it messy… But very scrumptious… and gooey… and melty… Then, it dropped on the table… And Pea thought it was ruined!  Read More →

I love Pea’s car seat. That said, I’m a mom who likes to switch it up, redecorate, and rearrange often. The toddler car seat covers from Baby Bella Maya couldn’t have come at a better time! The car seat that we have for Pea is a lovely pink and brown color combo. To receive the elegant Blue Champagne car seat cover is a welcome change.

The snaps allow for an easy on and off. There is no removing and replacing the car seat straps at all! I couldn’t believe how easy... [more]

The runs, crappies, diarrhea. Whatever you call it, it’s gross. It’s one of those things that just can’t be helped…or can it? There are billions of microbiota inside the intestines that keep the digestive system working properly. An upset in the balance of these microbiota, or flora, can cause intestinal problems, including diarrhea and abdominal discomfort, which can range from moderate to severe. Florastor® Kids is a clinically-tested, natural, yeast-based probiotic that aids in the growth of good microbiota in the intestines, while destroying and removing pathogenic (bad or disease-causing) microbiota to help maintain or restore optimal intestinal health. Florastor... [more]
