I received the most adorable thing in the mail yesterday! It's a felt cupcake with interchangeable decorations from SanseiSisters. You can find their shop on etsy! I can't even begin to explain just how cute this cupcake is! It arrived packaged in it's own little cupcake box. The Cupcake and decorations are made out of felt. It comes in it's own silicone cupcake cup. Along with the cupcake I received a candle, strawberry, and rose. Each decoration has a piece of velcro attached, so that it can stick on the top of the cupcake, which also has a piece of velcro. Everything is very well Keep reading...

Leapster Explorer by: Leap Frog – Product Review
Santa got my daughter the Leapster Explorer for Christmas last year. I thought it would make a great gift for her because she loves playing games online and on her daddy's itouch. The leapster games are educational, and easy enough, so that she can do most of them on her own. Some of the games feature fun characters such as Dora, Kai-lan, and the Disney Princesses. My daughter has the Dora and Kai-lan games, as well as the Mr. Pencil saves Doodleburg and Globe: Earth Adventures games. We also downloaded a few games and books from the app center.The Leapster Explorer is a Keep reading...

Under The Sea Mermaid Birthday Party
We celebrated my baby girls first birthday yesterday with an "under the sea" themed party. It was a whole lot of fun! I'm so proud of myself for making the sign and decorations. I'm not the craftiest, but when I put my mind to something, I can definitely get it done. I think it all came out pretty good, being it's the first time I made everything on my own. My goal was too make it nice and cute while sticking to a budget. I made the "Happy Birthday" sign using assorted colors of cardstock. After gluing the letters onto each piece, I joined each square together Keep reading...
