<b>To Start With....</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our Little Guy turned "3" on June 25th!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3 Already!?!?! Where did the time go? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anyway, I thought you might enjoy a glimpse of his invitation. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Maybe (just maybe) one of these days I will get around to doing a blog post with some of the details from his pirate party. And if I get really ambitious maybe (just maybe) I will go back and share the details of his Mickey Carnival Party that we did for his 2nd birthday too! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I still get tons of messages and comments about his Cat In The Hat 1st Birthday Party.....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So stay tuned! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Moving On To Other Exciting News....</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img alt="Kate Middleton, Prince William and baby George" src="http://www.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/articles/65343-kate-middleton-prince-william-inside-their-first-weeks-with-prince-george/1375984391_kate-middleton-prince-william-goerge-article.jpg" width="457" /> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The "Royal Baby" was born and it seems the whole world was watching and excited to catch a glimpse of the little guy. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Cute as he is I couldn't take my eyes off of his beautiful mother. I mean she even managed to make her postpartum bump look stylish. {Gagging A Little!} </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If only we could all look so perfectly put together leaving the hospital with our newborns! RIGHT? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sorry if I kind of got off topic for a little bit there.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Back To What I Am Excited To Share....</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Well, at the same time that we were sending out Bresden's birthday invitations we were also sending out these little cards that I was so excited to make....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
{The Front}</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img alt="https://sphotos-b-dfw.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/1012165_607328545965932_1640307956_n.jpg" class="shrinkToFit decoded" height="400" src="https://sphotos-b-dfw.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/1012165_607328545965932_1640307956_n.jpg" width="297" /> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I purchased a bunch of sample spoons from a local ice cream shop, drilled ( yes actually drilled) 2 small holes in the front of the card, thread an 8 inch strip of satin ribbon through the holes and tied a little bow to secure the spoons to the front of the card.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Why put little spoons on the front of a card?</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Well, since our last name is WitherSPOON, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Little Baby Spoons seemed like the perfect thing to announce....</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Thank you to those of you who have prayed for our family. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We feel so blessed to be expecting our second child especially after thinking that we may never be able to have children of our own.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Infertility is no fun but don't let it stand in the way of your dreams! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Praise God for the doctors at RMA of Texas and for our 2 successful rounds of IVF!!!</div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Anyone else follow Tori Spelling's Blog, <a href="http://torispelling.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">EdiTORIial</span></a>?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I do and I must say that <b>I love it</b>!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Today she posted some great ideas for <b> </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Father's Day Gifts</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b> </b> and so I thought maybe I should post a couple of my own. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> Last year just before Father's Day I caught my little guy trying on his
Daddy's shoes and snapped a few pics. Talk about perfect timing. For Father's Day I did a little
editing on the photo, added a sweet message, had it printed and framed. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8lfhURW1KrZ5J5wepN_lYoCwQd66kaeJqlf_rYgDHFYJ3vH5L1QtLSpftp0u_edn8Y_yhZBvcdPvc2Ysdv-kPZ_h14_0aT3eqL0ff12UhdeWEO9nd_dxMlaSZGhNzCgNTVK70iNUJIWU/s1600/In+Daddy%27s+Shoes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="308" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8lfhURW1KrZ5J5wepN_lYoCwQd66kaeJqlf_rYgDHFYJ3vH5L1QtLSpftp0u_edn8Y_yhZBvcdPvc2Ysdv-kPZ_h14_0aT3eqL0ff12UhdeWEO9nd_dxMlaSZGhNzCgNTVK70iNUJIWU/s400/In+Daddy%27s+Shoes.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I wanted to create something special for my Dad too and found this sweet photo of my little guy holding his Papa's hand to use for it..</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b><span style="font-size: large;">Quick! </span></b>What is the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the words "peeing on a stick?"<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
If "pregnancy test" is the first and only thing that comes to mind then
you are probably one of the lucky ones who hasn't had a difficult time
getting pregnant and you may not even be aware that infertility effects
10-15 percent of the reproductive-age population and that many women
"pee on sticks" to determine when they are ovulating to find their
fertile window.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwkJlNIOQrxHFpddl8cFOesIkLQYpHaX50z45SlZCsz6eturR8ETp_XitfK0ib0_jqdHjS6Fl1Um6wQRWno0mL585Sq49oupQ6TUguNYejz_LrcUSzmSCkmK9H0M7KmdJ96Uts01kTgIE/s1600/DSC09404.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwkJlNIOQrxHFpddl8cFOesIkLQYpHaX50z45SlZCsz6eturR8ETp_XitfK0ib0_jqdHjS6Fl1Um6wQRWno0mL585Sq49oupQ6TUguNYejz_LrcUSzmSCkmK9H0M7KmdJ96Uts01kTgIE/s400/DSC09404.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have peed on my fair share of sticks...Ovulation predictors and pregnancy tests. I can't tell you how many times I thought,<i> "Wouldn't it be nice if I didn't have to play with my urine and could just know when I was ovulating."</i> How I wished that knowing the time of ovulation could have been as simple as just looking at a watch. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.ovwatch.com/">OV-Watch is a wristband ovulation
detector that you wear at night while you are sleeping. It's advanced
biosensor and microprocessor interpret hormone induced chloride ion
fluctuations. The OV-Watch detects the chloride surge 3 days prior to
the estrogen surge, 4 days prior to the LH surge and 5 days prior to
ovulation, making it an earlier predictor of ovulation than any other
chemical surges during the month. It is estimated that 66% more
pregnancies will occur by month 6 with OV-Watch over urinary LH kits.
The watch takes readings of chloride ion levels that are secreted in
perspiration, detecting the chloride surge and providing the user with
an alert of FERTILE DAYS 1-4 and OVULATION DAY. OV-Watch detects the 4
crucial days before ovulation as opposed to LH test sticks that detect
the LH surge occurring just 12-24 hours before ovulation.</a></div>

<b><i><span style="color: #3d85c6;">It helps women to take advantage of<span style="font-size: medium;"> their full fertile window</span>,
which means less stress about timing and a higher likelihood of getting
pregnant. Imagine that you are trying to throw a ball through a
window...wouldn't you be more likely to achieve your goal if that window
was a bit larger?</span></i></b></div>

I can't help but wonder if the <a href="http://www.ovwatch.com/">OV-Watch</a>
could have saved us from the two costly rounds of IVF that it took to
conceive our son, who is now 2 1/2. I am sure that you will agree that
the $139.99 for a starter</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
kit and the additional cost for the monthly supply of sensors will be
money well spent if it helps you to conceive and is really nothing in
comparison to the cost of other infertility treatments.</div>

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">When our son transitioned to an upright carseat we were overwhelmed with trying to figure out how we were going to navigate through airports and ensure that our son's carseat would reach our destination with us. So we searched & searched and ended up purchasing Traveling Toddler. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwIho-_ZZvCpo-Kd4j3sUS828ZQp2eg-ewmeYkqvA66TTaKeHNv-loy3FArNEloTHuCNomqly1YANxFz9YQRBkGRhAdvDjZKT9OFO4TT0smXLEDhuRwdjFHUQhQe3z8C0G2kTUktYQN-Y/s1600/TravelingToddler.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwIho-_ZZvCpo-Kd4j3sUS828ZQp2eg-ewmeYkqvA66TTaKeHNv-loy3FArNEloTHuCNomqly1YANxFz9YQRBkGRhAdvDjZKT9OFO4TT0smXLEDhuRwdjFHUQhQe3z8C0G2kTUktYQN-Y/s320/TravelingToddler.jpg" width="287" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Traveling Toddler Turns Your Suitcase Into An Instant Stroller!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We Love It! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We have already used it on several trips and each time we use it we are stopped by countless other families wanting to know all about it and where they can get one. So just be prepared to be the envy of all the other parents traveling with toddlers that aren't traveling with "Traveling Toddler!"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #6aa84f; font-size: large;">Why It's A Must-Have:</span></strong></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Traveling Toddler is a T-shaped strap with 3 D-rings that utilizes your convertible carseat's latch system to secure your carseat to a rolling suitcase creating an Instant Stroller!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">It allows you to push or pull a piece of luggage, your child's carseat and your child....all with one hand.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The strap is small. So you can just put it in your purse or carry-on when you are not using it.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">It's Super Affordable! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Priced at about $15 & well worth every cent!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I can't imagine why anyone would pay $90 for a similar product that is on the market. Especially, because this other product is way bulkier and can't be easily stored like Traveling Toddler can.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I also can't understand why anyone would buy a separate carseat, one of those expensive carseats with pop-out wheels that are designed for air travel, when they can utilize their own carseat for airtravel.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Let me go a step further and share the Instructions for using Traveling Toddler with you to answer any questions that you may still have about how it works & also share a couple of tips with you.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMM9DKgMgjdAld9M4Dl6InQ4XxnrRGe2TL2esOOjQNWwRq_ZTjclF_0dA2htzS4cT9afsd2u0p8LLRy4X8OFGGnaAk1um2p1Y_1_Nk8EI-xPHWuKHxDbWUoVb1evPfjFKERKuE4f66ei0/s1600/Traveling+Toddler+Instructions.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMM9DKgMgjdAld9M4Dl6InQ4XxnrRGe2TL2esOOjQNWwRq_ZTjclF_0dA2htzS4cT9afsd2u0p8LLRy4X8OFGGnaAk1um2p1Y_1_Nk8EI-xPHWuKHxDbWUoVb1evPfjFKERKuE4f66ei0/s400/Traveling+Toddler+Instructions.jpg" width="265" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">If you are planning to gate check your carseat or use it on the airplane you will need to disconnect Traveling Toddler to go through the TSA security checkpoint..... but if you practice connecting and disconnecting it before you travel it will be a piece of cake.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We use our Traveling Toddler on our rolling carry-on bag and as long as the bag is full it works great!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We gate-check our carseat (as our son is still under 2 & flies free) and reconnect it in the jetway once we land.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Please note: Do not gate check your carry-on bag if you are going to want to use it with your Traveling Toddler at an airport where you are catching a connecting flight....the airlines will not give you your gate-checked carry-on until you reach your destination due to security restrictions (at least that has been our experience.)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I really can't believe that more families are not using Traveling Toddler. I have to believe that it is just because they have not heard of it yet....</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Precisely the reason I felt the need to post this review & get the word out!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I saw a few different people online use the "Happy Birthday To You" book as a guestbook & I loved the idea. I framed the rhyme that invited guests to write a message anywhere in the book & our family and friends wrote special messages to their "favorite one year old guy" that he will be able to look back on for years to come. It made a really special keepsake from a special day. I also framed an 8x10 of his invitation & put it out on the table too. The welcome sign on the wall came from Michael's. I highly recommend mylar balloons. By the end of the day/the next morning all of the polka dot latex balloons were on the floor. The mylar balloons were still floating over a week later & when I was tired of looking at them I just inserted a straw, deflated them and folded them up for future use. BTW, the balloons were tied to Dr. Seuss totes that I found in the dollar section at Target (another one of my favorite stores).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Unfortunately, I forgot to photograph the backside of the signs until the day after the party so the stickers kind of rippled a bit.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Believe it or not, there were actually a few more details that I didn't include photos of & things that I had planned for his party but I ran out of time....I will mention a few so that you might be able to do them if you are hosting a Dr. Seuss Party.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We had the movie "The Cat In The Hat" playing on the television in our living room during the party. It made for good background noise & we sat on the floor below the TV for Bresden to open his presents so our guests could watch the movie if they weren't that interested in the gift-opening.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I was going to make a platter with green eggs & ham....I had the book, the ham & 3 dozen hard boiled eggs in my fridge but I didn't get to devil the eggs & color the yolk filling green or roll up the ham and insert toothpicks with pom-poms on top.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I had also planned to either buy rainbow swirled lollipops or make <a href="http://sweetsugarbelle.com/2011/06/lollypop-cookies/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheSweetAdventuresOfSugarbelle+%28The+Sweet+Adventures+of+Sugarbelle%29"><span style="color: red;">lollipop cookies</span></a> with a personalized label that looked like the cover of "Oh The Places You'll Go" but said something like, "Of All The Places You'll Go We Are Glad You Came To Bresden's 1st Birthday Party."</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

That "first thought" was quickly followed by,<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">"I MUST-HAVE ONE!!!"</span></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;"></span></strong> I sort of stumbled upon the website while planning</div><div style="text-align: center;">Bresden's 1st Birthday Party &</div><div style="text-align: center;">Fell In Love With </div><div style="text-align: center;">My Little Cupcake....<br />

<strong>What Is This Thing That I am So Excited About?</strong><br />
<br />
<strong>My Little Cupcake</strong> is a mold to make<br />
<strong>uniformly sized</strong> <strong>& </strong><strong>shaped </strong><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><strong>"no bake" mini cupcake pops.</strong><br />
<strong>How Fun!</strong><br />
<strong>I Know, Right?</strong><br />
Since I worked at a cupcake shop before my little guy was born <br />
<strong>I am a </strong><strong>Total "Sucker" (pun intended) For All Things Cupcake.</strong><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_DaU8sYDq3CGobi3lFtKDybryWNaWoMLnran_KHhYfk-R3EQ39JL67TeoEizhAeu6CTLQcghkJEc-opIdAG80ma5VsKhxuY9IEDgBEbtvvcZfgPMeusPbA_9oPJ5JARHsCvL1c0tT8QE/s1600/steps%255B1%255D.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="105" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_DaU8sYDq3CGobi3lFtKDybryWNaWoMLnran_KHhYfk-R3EQ39JL67TeoEizhAeu6CTLQcghkJEc-opIdAG80ma5VsKhxuY9IEDgBEbtvvcZfgPMeusPbA_9oPJ5JARHsCvL1c0tT8QE/s320/steps%255B1%255D.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
I had not really thought of doing <strong>cupcake pops</strong> for my son's party </div><div style="text-align: center;">(okay, maybe for like a brief moment before deciding that they would be too much of a hassle). </div><div style="text-align: center;">But that was before I came across the</div><div style="text-align: center;"><strong>My Little Cupcake</strong></div><div style="text-align: center;"><strong>Cake POP Mold</strong></div><div style="text-align: center;">&</div><div style="text-align: center;">After watching the <br />
<strong>Adorable Instructional Video</strong> <br />
<strong>featuring </strong><br />
<strong>The Owner's Kiddos</strong><br />
(below) </div><div style="text-align: center;">I just knew that I had to make some!<br />
And as they say,<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">" Making Pops is a Piece Of Cake."</span></strong><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/uHYFuVVL2ZE?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">It Really Was So Easy</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">&</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">So Much Fun!</span></strong><br />
<br />
Grinding Up The Oreos, Mixing Up The Dough, Dipping & Decorating Them....<br />
Eating Them Too! <br />
Every bit of it was fun & easy. <br />
My Little Cupcake offers <a href="http://www.mylittlecupcakeblog.com/2011/07/tips-tricks-troubleshooting.html"><span style="color: #ea9999;">Tips, Tricks & Troubleshooting</span></a> just in case though.<br />
<br />
In the video (above) they recommend using an item that you probably have in your home already ( I am not going to say what that item is because if you watch the video & comment what it is you will get an additional giveaway entry) but <br />
I just thought that I would share a tip of my own....<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqx-RU_-mIDzeQlK9-x-hYFSPeHANCF0UhX5hyhKVI1SCFsvyOAc8-3ehBHRPEaqdRCZY3GBYL81aNgQOBTnDI8DuLFNwWf6F0GsukDoTKkoXRTJ09-1SYMND5C-AZ0jtJsG5j_aMtkTs/s1600/IMG_2853.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqx-RU_-mIDzeQlK9-x-hYFSPeHANCF0UhX5hyhKVI1SCFsvyOAc8-3ehBHRPEaqdRCZY3GBYL81aNgQOBTnDI8DuLFNwWf6F0GsukDoTKkoXRTJ09-1SYMND5C-AZ0jtJsG5j_aMtkTs/s200/IMG_2853.JPG" width="200" /></a></div><br />
I used a mini cupcake pan to let the bottoms of my pops dry & it worked great.<br />
They also offer cute little <a href="http://www.mylittlecupcakepop.com/categories/Pop-Accessories/"><span style="color: #ea9999;">Pop Holders</span></a> on their site that you may be interested in.<br />
<br />
The Pop Holders would be especially nice if you are planning to let your guests make their own pops <em>at</em> your party.<br />
<br />
I know that once you have one of these molds you are going to be looking for any excuse that you can to use it...<br />
I know I am!<br />
I can think of plenty! In fact here is one that I'll share <br />
(it doesn't actually apply to me yet, since my little guy isn't quite school-age yet)....<br />
<br />
<strong>Apples Are So Last Year!</strong><br />
<strong>If You Want Your Kids To Make A Good Impression On Their Teacher</strong><br />
<strong>Send Them To School With Cupcake Pops Instead!!!</strong><br />
<br />

<strong>more beverage choices</strong><br />
than just, "Milk or Water."</div><div style="text-align: center;">Our friends & family will tell you that they got in the habit of bringing along their own sodas when they would come over because we rarely had more than just milk or water to offer them to drink.</div><div style="text-align: center;">But with the arrival of <strong>SodaStream</strong> those days are over.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1OyHWBEr1GX9EDsC5JMmyC20wFTVHymuNGl0XJmCuCSuGahN6Xg-KGeEMfGZEu1bfkSGHN6WjRV0xr_QI_qmA3l3CVq8Wf4p54s6_QwbLNnhNLvel8aPUkYlxM2oMUMT7x59uubEPmds/s1600/IMG_3799.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1OyHWBEr1GX9EDsC5JMmyC20wFTVHymuNGl0XJmCuCSuGahN6Xg-KGeEMfGZEu1bfkSGHN6WjRV0xr_QI_qmA3l3CVq8Wf4p54s6_QwbLNnhNLvel8aPUkYlxM2oMUMT7x59uubEPmds/s320/IMG_3799.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><strong>Now we have WAY MORE CHOICES than just milk or water!</strong><br />
<strong>WAY MORE!!!</strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: x-large;">Why Is It A Must-Have?</span></strong><br />
{Even For Someone Who Didn't Have Soda In Their House On A Regular Basis Before} <br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: #6aa84f; font-size: large;">VALUE</span></strong><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">It is not that we don't like soda...<br />
we just aren't your everyday soda drinkers <br />
(although I drink a lot more soda now than I ever did before).</div><div style="text-align: center;">Whenever we did buy soda...We ended up throwing most of it away because it would go flat before we could drink it all. <br />
Now we can just<strong> </strong><br />
<strong>make as little or as much as we want</strong>.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e69138; font-size: large;">No More Flat, Wasted Soda.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e69138; font-size: large;">Just 25 Cents (Or Less) Per Can Of Soda.</span><br />
(I just purchased SodaMix on sale at JCPenney that I think makes it closer to 15 cents a can)<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e69138; font-size: large;">No More Bottle Deposits.</span><br />
(Like in California, where we had to pay CRV)<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: #6aa84f; font-size: large;">TASTE & NUTRITION</span></strong><br />
<br />
I know that some people have a specific kind of soda that they always drink but then there are people like me who don't like drinking the same thing all the time....SodaStream gives me the freedom to mix things up.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e69138; font-size: large;">Over 30 Flavors To Choose From.</span> <br />
So I'll never get tired of drinking the same ol' thing & they are sure to have something to have everyone's favorites.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e69138; font-size: large;">It's Better For You.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e69138; font-size: large;">Regular Flavors Contain No High-Fructose Corn Syrup. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e69138; font-size: large;">Diet Flavors Are Sweetened With Splenda® Brand Sweetener, Not Aspartame.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #6aa84f; font-size: large;"><strong>CONVENIENCE</strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #e69138; font-size: large;">Fresh Soft Drinks In Seconds... Without Lugging Or Storage Hassles!</span><br />
There is no way that we could store so many different flavors of store-bought soda .<br />
Not to mention, having it chilled & ready to drink at a moments notice.<br />
Each bottle of concentrated SodaMix contains enough syrup to make about 12 liters or 33 cans of fresh, delicious soda. These little bottles hardly take up any space in our pantry & because you use cold water to make your SodaStream sodas you don't have to worry about soda taking up space in the fridge either. We just use the cold water right out of our refrigerator dispenser.<br />
<br />
Just carrying in one little bottle is much more appealing than the thought of lugging 12 liters or 33 cans of soda into the house...especially because I am usually using one arm to lug my one-year old into the house.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Poor Guy, he wants to eat real food so bad but he has a </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>super sensitive gag reflex</strong>. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">In fact, we actually have an appointment with his pediatrician for a swallow study just to be sure that there is nothing medically wrong. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We started out our <strong>self-feeding attempts</strong> by trying the <strong>popular star-shaped "puffs" that so many parents swear by</strong> (because they are made to dissolve quickly)....but our little guy<strong> even choked on those</strong>. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia;">They <strong>aren't messy</strong> either so you don't have to be concerned about that. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia;">I even give them to our son to snack on during church.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Not believing that I would actually follow through with it...and I will admit (only now) that I did doubt myself a little too.

I really could not have done it without <strong></strong><br />

text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">I can't tell you the last time I wore a one-piece swimsuit....but I absolutely love this Pin-up Style Suit!</span></div><div style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">It fits great and I just adore all the similarities to the </span></div><div style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">one my grandma wore back in 1946...The halter straps, the cute little tie in the center and the modest cut of the legs. The swimsuit features a soft cup bra for smooth coverage and the snug fit of the elastic around the legs ensures that this suit won't ride up. </span></div><div style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">The "Grace" swimsuit is such a cute "retro-style" swimsuit that I feel really highlights Popina's special niche in swimwear. But Popina offers a wide variety of styles so even if you are not necessarily seeking a retro-style suit... Popina may still have just the right suit for you. In fact, one of my other favorite suits, The Halter Tankini Top (which could be paired with a large selection of different bottoms) had a very classic look that I would not immediately describe as retro.</span></div><div style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">When the suit arrived I was very impressed with the quality, style & fit....</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">noticing a <strong>"Made In The USA"</strong> sticker on the package....</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">always a good thing!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>The Halter</strong> is a great little <strong>tankini rashguard</strong> top that is a cross between a swimsuit and a rashguard.... giving your mid-section the <strong>coverage and protection</strong> of a rashguard but leaving your shoulders and arms exposed, for the <strong>feel of a swimsuit</strong>, it ties at the neck so you can make it as tight or loose as you want it to be.... A feature that also came in handy for convenient nursing right on the beach. It features a <strong>built-in shelf bra</strong> for a little support and a hint of modesty.... I was a little concerned about the amount of coverage it would provide as I usually only wear swimsuits with built in soft cup bras....to ensure "smooth coverage" but the two layers of fabric provided plenty of smoothing coverage and the top is so cute that it <strong>could be comfortably worn even beyond the beach</strong>. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizqSxpY4IMEQ45KS-X5YODsmaM3mvQ91fLGp6CBNUcVWnzcnwlPTk3ifjYC4yMQnMm9-rjNmN1w1Or6mK-Ob4iVo8uhZRHuDfDYEJeTuvoMLhBxt8YRz9OrzxOVNQX0-4Dm3vt5KAWIAc/s1600/FeedingBatBeach.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizqSxpY4IMEQ45KS-X5YODsmaM3mvQ91fLGp6CBNUcVWnzcnwlPTk3ifjYC4yMQnMm9-rjNmN1w1Or6mK-Ob4iVo8uhZRHuDfDYEJeTuvoMLhBxt8YRz9OrzxOVNQX0-4Dm3vt5KAWIAc/s320/FeedingBatBeach.jpg" width="276" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">The <strong>Boy Brief Bottoms</strong> are such a cute style that provided that <strong>extra bit of coverage</strong> that I was looking for. They fit low on my hips with a wide, flat waistband for a nice, smooth, flat fit (coincidence that flat is flattering?). They were really <strong>comfortable to wear</strong> too. I should mention that the boy briefs are actually available in the Urban Groove print as well...I opted for the black though, as I thought that black would be good for possibly mix & matching with other tops.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I love having photos printed on canvas & $35 is a really really good deal...I mean an enlargement and frame would cost more than that!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Maybe you already have the perfect picture in mind or have something coming up (Engagement, Wedding, Baby on the way, Easter, etc) or maybe you just can't find exactly what you want for a certain wall in your house.....Whatever the case may be....this is worth checking out.
