A single mom, trying to balance life in the dating scene, motherhood, and work while trying to find the humor in it all.
Two weeks ago Hunter and I were given the opportunity to attend a private advanced screening for the new Universal Pictures film, Despicable Me. It. Was. Awesome. Here’s the thing with me. When it comes to kid movies I tend to get bored halfway through. But this movie had my attention and me laughing throughout the whole [...]
As a furry pet owner its always an issue vacuuming up all the pet hair. I have one cat who sheds enough to make you think I had a house full of them. No lie. Every other vacuum I’ve ever owned gets jammed up with the hair. I obviously need something designed to pick [...]
I had the Playmobil Mansion growing up and my brother had the castle. We both would spend hours in our rooms playing with them. So it was only natural for me to buy Playmobil toys for Hunter. He has the Pirate Ship and the Castle along with plenty of accessory pieces to both. In April, [...]
As most of you probably know, I am a huge Glee fan. When I got to meet some of the cast back in December I was overly ecstatic. Did you know that they are going on tour??? How cool is that?! I totally want to see that concert. And Dove is the official hair care [...]
I used to label all Hunter’s toy bins with cheap generic labels that I bought at the store and not really impressed. Now that he is older and much more active in sports, school, and day camp activities, its important for me to start labeling his belongings now. Long gone are the days of moms [...]

I remember just a few months ago (probably before Christmas) all Hunter kept talking about were Bendaroos. I had no idea what they were or where he even knew them from. He said he saw the commercial and they were awesome. He just had to have them. When i saw the commercial I thought they [...]
As I have mentioned before sun protection is very important to me b/c I am so fair and have already had pre-cancerous moles removed. Hunter unfortunately has my skin tone and is fair as well. Since most of the damage to my skin was done at a young age, its very important for me to protect Hunter. [...]
I am a total beach bum in the summer. Ask anyone who knows me. As soon as the weather hits mid 70′s here, I’m at the beach. I pretty much live at the beach all summer. I love the water and the sand and tanning. I have this really weird habit though. After the beach, [...]
When it comes to youth sports we tend to take the necessary precautions to protect our children from injuries. In football and hockey, the kids wear pads and helmets. In soccer, they wear shin guards. In baseball, they wear batting helmets. But in baseball, when the kids are up at bat, its not just their [...]
