As a wife and mama of 5 kids (and one more due in May), I am always looking for ways to simplify my life to make it more enjoyable. I am super busy! You moms know what I mean, the kids school events & projects, doctor appointments and just the day to day grind of household duties, even blogging can be time consuming. It is often hard to balance it all without forgetting things that need to be done. I also happen to be one of the most forgetful people you will ever know. Seriously, sometimes I forget details about what happened within the week. I am super excited about the "Simplify My Life Sweepstakes", because having an HP Mini will help me smooth out all the bumps & get things in order for my family. Things that keep my life hectic are the monthly prenatal exams, my sons weekly speech therapy sessions, my husbands doctor appointments every three months, and then there are the regular dental and well child exams to squeeze in. Add to these appointments, the extended ...

THIS CONTEST IS CLOSED! THE REVIEW: The only trading cards I remember when I was grow ing up besides the traditional sports cards that were the Garbage Pail Kids, which were actually stickers that featured some weird and gross characters....yeah, I don't think I will ever approve of those types of cards for my kids. Which is why I was glad to learn about Bella Sara tradin g cards for girls. These trading cards take traditional cards to the next level. They implement the power and fun of technology, making trading cards a bit more interactive, but they also allow for imagination to be had. My girls were able to review some packs of these great cards, which was already neat because they love horses. Bella Sara Trading cards are beautifully designed with girls in mind. As a mom I loved that the cards feature positive and inspiring messages for little girls. My girls were excited for the adventures to be ha d playing with the cards and they were able to easily navigate the website ...
