I have been a complete blog slacker! I have several reviews to do and some family stuff to post but the first thing to share is a contest to win some fun prizes from the new Cocoa Puffs Brownie Crunch cereal! I was sent (a very long time ago) a box of the new cereal [...]

I was sent a gift pack including the new Fiber One 90-calorie brownies. I love my chocolate and make brownies fairly often but then I end up eating way more than I should! These aren’t the same as homemade obviously but they don’t give you the guilt that eating  half a pan of brownies either! [...]

Jamie and Jillian are currently very into Caillou so the offer to review two of the new line of Caillou toys could not have come at a better time! We already had some Caillou books but now the girls have a big Caillou doll and a Caillou sailboat toy for the bath tub! The bath [...]

The Dinosaur Train is one of our favorite kid shows and we were happy to do another review of one of their products! If you’re looking for non-candy ideas for Easter the Dinosaur Train Hatchers eggs are pretty neat. My kids love this sort of thing. With Hatchers the characters from Dinosaur Train hatch from [...]
