Easy Homemade Valentine’s

January 20, 2012
"Last year I saw the cutest idea for Valentine's Day cards.  Unfortunately, at the time, Bink was at a daycare with one other child and K was too old to pass out Valentines in school. This year, mostly because of Pinterest, I started seeing ideas for Valentine's Day way earlier than I would have ever [...]"

Preparing for Halloween

September 30, 2011
"I kind of adore Halloween.  It is probably my favorite holiday, right up there with Christmas.  Except Halloween is just so much less stressful, so it is a little easier to enjoy, without having to worry about gifts and wrapping and Santa and whatnot. I tend to be an early planner for Halloween.  Last year, [...]"

The Best Sound Ever

September 21, 2011
"First, my apologies that I couldn't find a cooler way to share this.  I've tried and tried to find an embeddable audio player, but no luck.  So, in it's humble glory, here is the audio that Hubby took during our last doctor's appointment. (In theory, if you click the link, it should take you to [...]"

Girls Night

September 15, 2011
"Tomorrow night, after an extended day of work, I'm going out with one of my friends for a girls night.  I've known her since we were 15 years old in a sophomore guitar class together.  Even though we only live a half hour apart, between work, our significant others, her Masters program, and my kids, [...]"

Big Boy Bink

July 26, 2011
"It has been MONTHS in the making, but Bink's big boy room is finally finished!  We made the transition Saturday night and (knock on wood) it has been great. Unfortunately, with the small-ish size of the room and the (Lightening McQueen) red walls, I have yet to be able to get a good picture in [...]"

Bambino Balls Virtual Fashion Show

July 22, 2011
"Now that you've seen the finished product, here's the "behind the scenes verson"... When I first starting working with Bambino Balls, I knew I wanted to put together a virtual fashion show.  Ideas were swirling around in my head, but what I always came back to was the idea of tying in the sports themed [...]"

Project 365 Highlights Weeks 16-27

July 12, 2011
"So I've been MAJORLY slacking on my Project 365 posts.  I've been taking pictures every day, but getting them organized, edited, uploaded, and into blog posts proved to be too much. Instead of showing you each of the 76 pictures since the last time I posted individually, I thought I'd just show you the tiny [...]"

Bink’s Chuggington Birthday Party

June 07, 2011
"I may have mentioned once or twice that Bink is crazy over Chuggington.  We start our day with choo-choos, we end our day with choo-choos.  In between we carry around our little die cast Chuggers and put them to sleep in their special Chugger carrying case.  It's madness. I knew Bink's second birthday had to [...]"

Super Cool Appliance Fun

May 18, 2011
"I'm going to share plenty more details and pictures about my trip to Louisville for the GEMomsperience blogging event in the next few days.  Before I get to all that, I wanted to share a quick video I took of one of the coolest appliances I saw while I was there, the GE Advantium. I [...]"

Assorted Excitement

May 09, 2011
"There is a lot going on in the next few weeks and I'm not really sure where to begin.  Forgive the hodgepodge of a post that is coming your way... This time next week I'll be in Louisville, Kentucky courtesy of GE.  The short version of this long story is that I won a trip [...]"

Toddler Easter Baskets

April 26, 2011
"My first Easter dating Hubby I was beyond excited to put together an Easter basket for K.  I bought candy, tiny stuffed animals, trinket-y beaded necklaces, and cute Easter-themed toys.  What I didn’t realize then was that I was adding an entire basket full of junk to an already toy/stuffed animal/tricket-y filled house. A few [...]"

"Today is the one year anniversary of Pacifier In My Pocket!  It has been a wonderful, fun, eventful year.  Thank you for sharing it with me!  I started this blog as a way to capture my life as a new Mom and keep a record of Bink's milestones, but it has grown into a lot [...]"

Project 365: Week 2

January 19, 2011
"First:  I apologize for being MIA the past few days.  The laptop charger stopped working over the weekend and my big Sunday night plans of editing photos and trying my hand at designing a new header for the blog quickly disappeared. The good news is that we bought a service plan on the computer, so [...]"
