Bras and Mamarazzi

A new maternity store opened up in my area, so, of course, I had to check it out.  I was hoping for nice and slightly different styles at prices that didn’t require I sell my children in order to buy something.  I think Destination Maternity fit the bill.  PLUS they had an area for the [...]

I know the Stork doesn’t bring babies, but do you think he will bring me one of these?

A new maternity store sprung up, in my area, a couple or years ago.  Since I wasn’t pregnant, and didn’t think I would ever become pregnant again, I figured I would never have a chance to scope it out.  Since I have become pregnant again and was in need of new capris and shorts, I decided [...]

Manis and Pedis for the school aged set.

I never, hear me NEVER, wore open-toed shoes. Then I met my husband, who for some strange reason likes painted toe nails and seeing them peek out from a shoe.  It would take a lot of persuading on his part, but eventually I would come around.   I never understood the attraction of wearing open toed shoes.  I mean who wants [...]

Spirit Week

I never had Spirit Week when I was a kid.  You just went to school, did your work and NO FUN! for you.  Then again, I went to a public school and there was not much funds for fun.  Amber goes to a private ultra fun school where the learning is hard, but they throw in some [...]
