Top 50 Mom Blogs 2012 Who Me?

 

I love getting recognition.  It’s all those little pats on the back that make me feel like I am not talking to a wall.  I do so much writing and never run out of things to say,  but in the back of my head the thought that no one is going to read scares the heck out of me.  

I absolutely love what I do, the icing on the cake is that I am getting paid to write!  I have definitely found my calling and who would have thought I would be so in love my job :)  

Look what I just got “Top 50 Mom Blogs” recognition, thanks for including me.  I am honored to be included with this group, lots of which are my friends and I adore.

Hess Toy Truck 2012

If you are on the East coast you know all about HESS gasoline and the toy truck collection that has made it’s way through 48 years.  Now for the rest of the world we can all experience the HESS Toy Trucks.  What’s to love about these HESS toys?   The craftsmanship is amazing!  With working  motors, sounds, lights  and a retractable door the helicopter and rescue vehicle is more than an average toy.

My kids go crazy for this helicopter and the rescue vehicle that sound and moves like the real thing.  This toy set makes the ultimate Holiday Gift for play and for collectors.

Elmo Makes Makes Music in San Antonio

It’s been a busy week for us and it’s only Wednesday. We were out again last night for the opening of Sesame Street Live “Elmo Makes Music”.  The intimate show was held at the Lila Cockrell Theatre in San Antonio.  There really isn’t a bad seat in the house as this is a smaller theater.  Which made it a perfect destination to take the kids.

If you were are a fan of Sesame Street, you will enjoy the throw back songs like Cookie Rumba and Rockin’ Robin.

Little D and I keeping busy until the show.

We enjoyed the interactive sing alongs, a glow in the dark shoe skit and watching the cast save Jenny the music teacher from losing her instruments in the move to Sesame Street.  The show is captivating and had my 1 and 3 year old’s entertained from beginning to end.

There are two more San Antonio shows today so you still have time to get in on the Sesame Street action. And don’t forget to print the coupon I posted last month for $3 off.

It’s all about Plaid

There is always room for plaid, right?  It seems these days I am not playing it so safe in the clothing department.  Traveling outside of the matchy – matchy styles and going for bolder trendy looks.  I even pair browns and blacks together {gasp, I know}.  There are rules to life, like when do I stop shopping in the juniors section?  Is it not okay to walk out of a forever 21 full of clothes for myself?  I know I will deal with these hurdles as they come.  But for now I bring you one style that is so right and doesn’t get enough credit in my book.

It’s all about plaid!

I got on this kick of plaids because my boys are in need of styles that show their personalities and frankly I am sick of the spiderman shirts and jeans.  Little bits of plaid always looks great and it’s easy to layer and mix match for fun not so serious but cool kid looks.

The great part is we already own bits and pieces but just need to do a little shopping for the fun not so matchy pieces. 

For chic mom plaid, I opted for a few fun looks that are definitely style worthy.

So who’s plaid shopping now?   I am on the hunt for a few fun plaid looks.
