Happy Halloween folks. I must admit, this was one of my favorite days as a kid and I’m pretty excited I get to relive it all over again through my lil goblin. Even though she will not remember today or understand why I am putting her in a restrictive hot & sweaty costume – I will love every second of it. I’m evil..mwahahaha! Believe it or not, I have 4 costumes to choose from: a cutesy lion, a flower fairy of some sort, a cutesy lady bug and a sexy lady bug. Yes, a sexy lady bug. Its kind of…

Thirsty Thursdays
0Being the alcoholic that I am, anything having to do with adult beverages intrigues me. My sista Alexis @ The Exhausted Mom does a ‘Thirsty Thursdays’ post that features a new drink every week. During the month of October, she has been doing Halloween themed drinkies. These bad boys will make you want to throw your own Halloween party just so you can make them. Since it’s Thursday and we are a few days out till Halloween, I thought I would join in on the fun with sharing my own ‘Thirsty Thursday’ drink that I came across …. Creepy Crawler…
The Childrens Place Rocks The Holidays
0Before you know it, Thanksgiving and Christmas will be creepin’ up on us. I know, I feel crazy for even writing that but once Halloween passes you blink your eyes and its the freaking New Year. At least that’s how it is for me! Screw the presents – what are we gonna wear??! Yes, that is one of the top things on my holiday to-do list. My lil diva’s got to look fly for her first holidays! I was lucky enough to attend a special blogger event at The Childrens Place last Wednesday. They have the absolute cutest clothes for…
Drinking ‘Round the World
0Disney World really IS the greatest place on earth. As a Florida resident, we not only get to enjoy the beautiful beaches and tropical weather all the time, but Disney World is in driving distance. Even though I have only been a handful of times to the most magical place on earth since I moved here in ’97, its still nice to know I can go whenever I want to (and at a not-so discounted FL resident rate). Every fall for about 2 months they put on the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival. How can you not be intrigued….
Ghetto Princess Room
0I spent A LOT of time figuring out how to decorate the baby’s room while I was pregnant. I’m talkin’ many pregnant wo-man hours. I would be sitting at work doing my assignments and my mind would just wander off to la-la-land. I started researching themes, furniture and cutesy decorations to make her room perfect. My husband and I spent weeks choosing the right color to paint the walls. He and my dad painted the room like pros. We even got her closet re-done. Everything was in place down to the Disney figurines I had in my room when I…
Miracle Binky
0I know there is a lot of speculation as to whether or not moms and dads should give their babies pacifiers. I know they discouraged it while we were in the hospital and it wasn’t until our very last night with a new night nurse who allowed us to plug up our screaming newborn. Ahhh peace and quiet for a few seconds..until she spit it out and we had to put it back in. Again and again and again and again. And then again. When we arrived home, we waited a few weeks and tried the fancy cute binkies that…

Pyscho Jets Fan
0I live with a sports fanatic. My husband is completely obsessed with sports, particularly football, basketball and baseball. Now that its football season, his Sundays are spent in front of the TV, at a bar or at a friends house watching (and betting) on games. God forbid I make plans for us on Sundays. I grew up watching all the above with my dad so I have no problem sitting and watching a game or 2 with him. Last night was Monday Night Football and his beloved New York Jets were playing. As the clock neared 8:30, his entire demeanor…
Shellac My Mani
0About 6 months ago, I started getting that miracle manicure that lasts for 2-weeks. I thought it was the greatest thing on the planet. I mean, I spend majority of the day washing my hands from either changing a shitty diaper or having sweet potatoes dried to my fingers. With a normal manicure, that shit would be peeling off within minutes. Total waste of money. So I bit the bullet and tried the Shellac Gel Manicure. I’ve never been one to do the acrylic nails or other things most women do beauty wise (my hair color is 100% natural-dye has…
