Confession: Vet says my dog is obese and I’m the one crying

November 2, 2012 By Courtney

For full disclosure, anyone who knows me, knows my dog Riley is like a child to me. He is pampered and cared for more than I could explain. People always look at me weird when they hear how “spoiled” he is. In my eyes he is not spoiled, it’s my way of showing him how […]

Halloween Trick or Treating Tips for Toddlers

October 31, 2012 By Courtney

I’m really excited for Halloween this year because my daughter is two-years-old and she actually (kind of) understands what’s happening. She knows to say Trick-or-Treat, she knows to carry her pumpkin bucket around, “do knock-knock” on doors and dress up in costume. I’m pumped…weeks of practicing seems to have worked. However, she’s still not into […]

Booster seat ratings released and mine is on the ‘Not Recommended List’

October 25, 2012 By Courtney

This morning, The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety released it’s latest “booster seat” ratings. The group found 15 of 17 seats introduced in 2012 have earned their “Best Bet” rating. However, two boosters are not recommended because they don’t provide proper belt fit and consumers are advised to avoid them. We happen to own one […]

Review: New DG Baby Diapers…affordable and made in the USA

October 24, 2012 By Courtney

Anyone who has a child in diapers knows how expensive it can get, especially when you have more than one child in them. I recently had the chance to try baby diapers from Dollar General and they are literally half the price of major brands out there. I worried that since they were SO affordable […]

Pumpkin Hummus

October 21, 2012 By Courtney

I had leftover pumpkin puree from when I made the Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread last week and was wondering what to do with it. Lucky for me my November issue of Food Network Magazine had an easy appetizer dish that would help me put it to good use. Not only was I able to make […]

Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread…perfect for breakfast or dessert!

October 19, 2012 By Courtney

Being pregnant I don’t feel any different food-wise than I do when I’m not pregnant. I’ve always been a gourmand…I love to cook, I love to eat and I love to think about what I’m going to eat long before it happens. But, I will say this, if I get an hankering to eat something […]

BHBC Review: Diary of a Submissive

October 18, 2012 By Courtney

Warning: Mature content This is by far the hardest review I’ve ever written. I can’t decide if it’s because of the subject in nature, or the fact that the book was just not my cup of tea. On the heels of the oh-so-popular ‘Fifty Shades of Grey,’ comes a real-life story of one woman’s journey […]

It’s a Pasta e Fagioli kind of day

October 10, 2012 By Courtney

Pasta y Fagiole

I am thrilled that my two-year-old loves Italian food. Not because I’m 100% Italian, because that’s pretty much what I cook best. Lately she’s loving my Pasta e Fagioli and I’ve been making it weekly for her. While she eats she exclaims, “Yummy! I love pasta and beans!” Can you even stand how cute that […]

Review: Motorola Digital Video Baby Monitor – MBP33

October 8, 2012 By Courtney

Disclosure: I was given the Motorola MBP33 in exchange for a product review. All opinions expressed are my own. As many of you know, I’m expecting baby number two in January and I am in complete nesting mode! We are rearranging rooms in my house, doing lots of wall painting and of course buying things […]

Bee or Bret Michaels? Four-legged friends gear up for Halloween

October 3, 2012 By Courtney

If you plan on dressing your furkid for Halloween, you are not alone. PetSmart reports they’re doubling their selection of animal costumes this year. For 2012, the most popular costumes so far are bees and pumpkins. “Choosing a costume for your pet is like choosing a costume for yourself – you want something that reflects […]

Parents panic about possible global diaper shortage…and why I’m not worried

October 2, 2012 By Courtney

After an explosion rocked a chemical plant in Japan over the weekend, many parents are panicked about a possible global diaper shortage. Why? Well, the chemical plant makes a key ingredient in disposable diapers called acrylic acid. Acrylic acid is used to produce super absorbent polymers, which help disposable diapers absorb liquid without spilling. That […]
