Meg Bitton is a name synonymous with magical photography, a style that evokes fantasy, whimsy, fairy tales. I recently had the opportunity to take a color workshop with her in an effort to learn to edit my images with a bit more color and beauty, and so far really love the results. Before my Meg […]
This post brought to you by MetLife Foundation. All opinions are 100% mine. Mother’s Day is coming up, and holidays that honor important people in our lives just bring out the sentimental side of me. It makes me think about someone special, and what they mean to me. Sometimes we don’t really express often enough […]
It’s right around the corner, but it’s not too late to pick up something wonderful for mom (or yourself) to make this Mother’s Day extra fun…we created a Mother’s Day gift guide of items we’ve reviewed and love, and think you will too! Mother’s Day Gift Guide 2014 1. For the cheese connoisseur and baker […]
I love the Tree Hut products! Plus that camera strap is really cute! Great gift idea’s!
I have never used Tree Hut products before, but Italian Mocha? I have to try this!
I want to try that grater! I hate my cheese grater. I love my Zumba Wii game. It’s the original, though, I believe.
I would love the Zumba Fitness World Party for the Wii!
I have a Mod Strap and I just absolutely love it! It’s so easy to clean and it feels amazing on the neck.
Ooh, I’ll have to look at those straps by Mod Strap!
I’d love to have a fun strap for my camera and a camera bag.
I’d love the smell of that scrub I bet – you might never get me out of the shower with Italian Mocha!
That sugar scrub sounds divine right now since I am on a muddy sweaty camping trip lol.
Oooo… I like that cheese mill
Love Zumba but love the Cheese Mill!
Great gift suggestions, I could use quite a few of them.
Just wanted to say that I hope you had a wonderful Mother’s Day yesterday!
The cheese grater looks cool. The book cover looks humorous so it might be a good read.
Mother’s Day is over but I have a birthday coming up. I’d love that cheese mill and I adore Tree Hut products.
I particularly love the sugar scrub idea! Great gift suggestions.
A nice sugar scrub is always welcomed in my home 😉
These are awesome suggestions! I love Zumba, and with Father’s Day coming up, hubs would really like that cheese mill.
This post brought to you by Walmart. All opinions are 100% mine. Mother’s Day is the day that celebrates moms, the day that our children thank us for everything we do. It’s celebrated in many countries, and there is a movement to celebrate it worldwide, because mother’s everywhere deserve recognition…we all sacrifice, we all lose […]
So sweet, I love it when they are babies and I miss not having one around. Though I’m ok with being past the Pampers stage LOL.
Sweet post as always. I sometimes miss the baby age but am loving watching my children grow into their own people. Gav is so independent while Zoe is becoming a girl, losing all those baby features. They grow so fast.
These pictures are so pretty and those lashes are to die for.
I’d gladly give everything up all over again for my babies 🙂
Such a sweet post. You always write the sweetest posts.
Penelope, I was the same way… I never would have dreamed I’d be a stay at home mom, but after I had my son, I couldn’t leave him. I love the pic of you and your son.
It warms my heart to see how much being a mom means to you. This is just so beautiful!
What a sweet post! And, I just absolutely love the photo, too cute!
My daughter is grown and I treasure the memories from when she was little. Now I get to enjoy my grandchildren. 🙂
I agree with Colleen. Although Pampers is an excellent brand (it is my go-to brand), it is always nice to be past the Pampers stage, yet it always wonderful when they’re babies. 🙂
I can only imagine all the changes that happen when you become a momma! You sounds like an amazing mom, what a cutie pie!
Happy Mother’s Day to you. I agree that children change everything once they arrive on the scene, and once you’re ‘finished’ (if there is ever such a thing when you’re a mom) it’s so bitter sweet.
Hope you have a wonderful Mother’s Day!
While being a stay-at-home isn’t easy, it’s still rewarding. You seem to have settled into the ‘mom’ role well. I love that photo of you with your little one!
I would give up everything for my children.
I agree that nothing has changed my life more than becoming a mother. It is definitely the most difficult, yet most rewarding job I have ever had!
Becoming a mother sure does change so much!
I appreciate my daughter each and everyday. She was a long time coming 😉
You are so right. I thank God everyday for putting each of my boys in my life. I don’t know what I would do if it weren’t for them.
Yep, that sure is a pouty face! He is so cute.
What a cutie!
Such a cutie!
What a handsome little fella! 🙂
Was it time to go back home or something?
My son makes that exact same face lol. He’s so handsome though.
That is one cute little pouty face! What a great photo.
Now if his toy was a poo bear, the could pass for Christopher Robin 🙂
Cute! Why was he making his pouty face?
He is so stinking cute even with that pouty face :-)!!!!!
He just woke up from a nap (he fell asleep on our way to these woods) and did not like being awoken just to walk through the woods barefoot for pictures, lol…next time I need to go someplace within walking distance!
I know we as parents aren’t supposed to laugh at pouty faces, but they are just so darned cute!
I don’t just laugh at them, I take tons of pictures of them!
But such a handsome little pouty face!
But what an adorable pouty face! 🙂
Aww now what brought a face like that on? Did Mom tell him it was time to go home?! 🙂
He is just too handsome!! Love this pic!
What a great campaign for something as little as one tweet.
I think this is a wonderful way to not only honor our moms, but to help others who are less fortunate get a hand up to better themselves.
I’ve never heard of Dress for Success but it sounds like a great cause and I’m glad to hear MetLife if supporting it.
What a great cause and easy way to support.
Your #moem is certainly sweeter than mine…lol
Love love love that they are giving so much to this great organization.
Wow, what an easy way t help! Thank you for sharing.
How fun is this?! 140 characters though..Yikes, I think I have too much to say to fit into that limit 😉
I’ve never heard of a Moem but think it’s a cute term. 🙂
That’s a cute little Moem you wrote 🙂
The whole moem thing is kinda cracking me up. What a fun way to call for donations.
What an awesome campaign, it only takes a second to make a tweet! Off to do it, thanks for sharing about this!!
I love this program! And how easy is it to tweet?!?!
Mother’s Day may be over, but I know I would be head over heels to receive a Moem from my kids any time of the year! I really love that such a sweet gesture can help those in need too.
This is such a wonderful campaign! 🙂
Sounds like such a wonderful program.
