Posted by Dawniemom on October 27, 2009

Hi there! welcome back – have you entered my latest giveaways?When AT&T announced that they were doing away with their Call Vantage program, which enabled us unlimited (US) long distance, I was disappointed.  It had been a perfect set-up for us.  We needed to have high speed internet in order to use the service, but [...]

Posted by Dawniemom on October 9, 2009

It’s not too often that I find myself looking forward to a particular movie to open.  I don’t necessarily pay close attention to them any more because it seems like everything has been done before.  That was, of course, until I was introduced to Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant.

After watching just the preview, I [...]

Posted by Dawniemom on September 28, 2009

Since Zachary was a tiny tot, he’s been a Baby Einstein baby.  I am convinced that Baby Einstein videos have helped to make him so bright!  A 2-1/2 year old who can not only recite his numbers and letters, but IDENTIFY them on site?  Totally a Baby Einstein baby!
The day that we received the [...]

Posted by Dawniemom on June 3, 2009

One of the first things that people give up when they’re looking to lose weight are things like candy, cookies & ice cream.  Obviously, those are the things that you’ll also miss the most.  But Skinny Cow has come to the rescue!
I picked up Skinny Cow Mint ice cream sandwiches and was (frankly) a little [...]

Posted by Dawniemom on April 13, 2009

“GREEN” is a very popular concept right now.  Everyone is going GREEN!  Every THING is going GREEN!  And now, so is Electrolux.  They’ve partnered with Kelly Ripa to introduce to you their “Kelly GREEN” high-efficiency, front-loading washer & dryer. 
 
Just in time for Earth day, Electrolux kicks off its virtual flower garden campaign to [...]

I have FOUND my new breakfast! 
I must hide these from my kids.
I want them all for myself.

Isn’t that sad? LOL
But those are the thoughts that went through my head when I tried Kellogg’s new BakeShop Twists!  With just the right amount of delicious (real fruit!) fruit filling and a light, flaky pastry, it [...]

Posted by Dawniemom on March 27, 2009

As the person who is responsible for the maintenance on our cars, I have favorites when it comes to brands.  I tend to specifically go for those things that have proven themselves.  Rain-X is one of those brands.  I KNOW when I buy a Rain-X product, I’ll be happy with it.
As a result, I jumped [...]

Posted by Dawniemom on March 7, 2009

With the plethora of stuff (putting it mildly) that’s out on the market for kids’ snacks & such these days, it’s really no wonder that America’s youth are obese.  It is so hard for parents to fight the onslaught of product placement, commercials, sponsorships, etc. for JUNK food that their kids are subjected to and [...]

Posted by Dawniemom on March 6, 2009

When I was asked if I’d like to take a look at a mattress protector, I jumped at the chance because – HELLO!? – I have a co-sleeping toddler.  My mattress has really taken a beating from Zachary’s leaking bottles and leaking diapers.  The fact that we’d only bought it 2 years ago, just before [...]

Posted by Dawniemom on February 27, 2009

My daughter Libby has EXTREMELY sensitive skin.  A routine tickle session with her results in hives. Long sleeves and pants make her itch, no matter what I’ve used in the laundry.  So when she takes a bath, she can’t use any of those cutesy bath sets that they make for kids, particularly around the holidays.  [...]
