Weekend time and a 3 day weekend at that!! I hope you all have fun whatever you do! Let’s hope the rain stays away too:)
As always, feel free to link up any cute or funny post. You can take my button or share on social media if you like, although this is not mandatory at all. Also, check out the other blogs who link up, because they all give us some laughs each week!
My top five laughs:
5. Zane is talking so much but I have a hard time understanding him sometimes. Just last night, he says, “Airplane in the sky.” However, to me it came out there is an airplane on the slide. He said it just as he was on the slide, so I got confused-lol!
4. Hayley is really developing into such a special and beautiful person. I feel like she is my best friend and I adore the time I get to spend with her. Just this past week, we did our monthly mani/pedi which was so much fun! LOVE HER!
 3. I have a tendency to say What’s Up a lot. So now Zane says, “Wat Up..Wat Up.” So funny!
2. I was at a overnight girls weekend one night. My friend asked me a question and I responded, “I know that like the back of my head.” It was a long night and I was tired!
1. Zane has this annoying but endearing game he plays every night before bed. He will drop his paci intentionally so I could come in. When I get in, he says, “Mommy…Kiss and Hug.” This goes on for about 30 minutes every night but I secretly love all the kisses and hugs he is giving me:) What could I say!
Now your laughs:
Today, GradSave is proud to announce a new partnership with the Children of Fallen Soldiers Foundation.
The Children of Fallen Soldiers Foundation is a non-profit, non-partisan organization that aims to meet the needs of children who have lost a parent serving in the United States Armed Forces. The objective is to let these children know that our nation’s citizens and families recognize their loss and are committed to help them achieve their highest potential in life. GradSave believes there is no better way to help them achieve these dreams than by providing them with a way to fund their college education.
Three families will be chosen by CoFS and will be featured on GradSave.com/fallenheroes. As we pay our respect this Memorial Day to the men and women who have fought and died for our freedom, please consider supporting the children they left behind by contributing to their college fund. Gifts start as low as $5.00 and in addition GradSave will be donating $1.00 for every GradSave transaction made from May 24th – 31st including gifts made to any of their current 8,000+ GradSavers.

As a working mom, I like to see what is going on inside my house during the day. Now, I am able to do just that thanks to the Motorola Wi-Fi Video Baby Monitor. I am able to watch whatever they are doing from anywhere. You might be asking, how is this possible? We’ll, the monitor works by directly downloading the free app on most smartphones, computers, tablets, and other devices. The downloadable app enables one to watch and control the camera, so parents can see what their kids are doing, even on the go.
When I got the baby monitor, I simply loaded the BLINK1 app onto my iPad, login to the Motorola BLINK1 service, and connected to the BLINK1 camera via a secure server. Once connected, I was able to span, tilt, and zoom the camera remotely based on what I wanted to see. The video camera even has infrared night vision, to give accurate views.
I just think it is purely amazing that I can see what is going on via the monitor, on my phone or iPad. I can’t get over the fact that I can now see Hayley or Zane wherever I go. Technology is truly awesome these days and Motorola stepped up the game to create this amazing monitor.
Some of the other features of the Motorola Wi-Fi Video Baby Monitor includes Live Video/Audio with Compatible Smartphones, Tablets, and Computers, Polyphonic Lullabies, and two way communication. I am also able to connect up to four cameras to enhance the viewing area to allow me to see more. It has video recording and image snapshots as some of the additional features. It even has room temperature monitoring- how very cool!
The Blink 1-B Motorola Wi-Fi Baby Monitor is the IDEAL monitor for all us parents who wish to see their children on the go! It is an incredibly tech savy monitor that has some superb features. It was just released in March and has rave reviews. It is compatible with Apple and Android smartphones, tablets and computers with Wi-Fi access to the internet. The Motorola Wi-Fi Video Baby Monitor can be bought on Amazon today for $249.99.

If you have kids and they like to watch their own television shows geared totally for them, you really need not look farther than Netflix. Back in my college days, before I had kids, I was an avid Netflix fan and still to this day, remain one! I am pretty sure I am going on my 10th year of being a Netflix subscriber. Now that I have Hayley and Zane though, Netflix has taken a little turn for me, because most of the utilizing of Netflix is done by them! They have access to some of their all time favorite kids shows that they could watch whenever and/or wherever they want!
Netflix has a wide selection of kids shows in the ‘Just for Kid’s section. Seriously, just about everyone of my kids favorite shows are available in the ‘Just for Kids’ section including Sesame Street, Jake and The Never Land Pirates, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, My Little Pony, Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue, Angelina Ballerina, Curious George, and more! Whenever they put one of their shows on using Netflix, they are beyond estatic.
 I have relied on Netflix in more instances than I can count on my hand. Most of the times when I am cooking and cleaning up dinner, I allow Hayley and Zane to pick our two of their favorite kids shows on Netflix, to watch for an hour or so. At the end, I join them so we have family cuddle times with all our favorite shows playing.
One of my favorite aspects of Netflix is the fact that my kids can watch all of their favorite TV shows and movies anytime they want and it is available on hundreds of devices. For instance, Hayley and Zane can watch the Netflix shows streaming through the computer or they can also watch via the Netflix app on my iPhone or iPad. This is a huge plus for me because sometimes I just want some piece and quiet to myself. All I have to do is give Hayley and Zane, my iPhone or iPad, and they can go to town watching all of their favorite shows!
Streaming the shows for them is so easy! All I had to do was download the free app on iPad (I also have it on my iPhone), click on the Netflix app on any gaming device and I am all set to go! If I want to stream it live right through Netflix.com for them to watch, this is available too and extrememly easy to do!
I also love that all content on Netflix is selected with the help from Common Sense Media so I can see all the ratings, reviews, and information before we start to watch our favorite show. All of the kids section is completely family appropriate for children 2-12 , so I never have to worry about any show they pick from the ‘Just for Kid’s section. Watching Netflix makes for happy kids, which in turn makes for a happy mommy/daddy!
If you have not tried Netflix yet and you have not seen the vast array of fantastic kids shows, I highly suggest you do! Netflix is much cheaper than having home cable and the choices are virtually endless. Also, your kids never have to worry about commercials stopping them from watching, nor do you have to worry about them seeing something on TV, that might be inappropriate for them!
What are you watching on TV with your family?
Netflix has family favorites from Disney, Disney Jr., Hasbro, Cartoon Network and Dreamworks that are available to stream anytime, anywhere.
And streaming is easier than you think! Download the free app on your iPad, click on the Netflix app on any gaming device, go to the website on your computer – and you’re in business. Check it out here!
