Sorry for my lack of posts lately...family and school have really given me a run for my money this past month!

My good friend Misty included me in this awesome game. The concept is to do something nice for someone. The first 3 people who reply to this post will be sent a little something special!! The only thing I ask, is that when you get your item, you post this on your blog and do it for 3 more people! It is a lot of fun!! It really made my day! Here is the cute tote bag Misty sent me:)

Leg Huggers are absolutely one of the most adorable baby items I have come across recently! These baby/young girl leggings come in an assortment of trendy styles and colors that are sure to keep your little one warm and cozy. Besides being fabulously stylish, the Leg Huggers are eco-friendly and made with Bamboo fibers. In addition, they are odor resistant and antibacterial! Not to mention incredibly soft!! With baby leggings being all the rave in baby/girl fashion, who would not want to see their little one in something so cute?

Wow...another year gone and another starting. It has been a bittersweet year with so many life changing expereinces. In May, I gave birth to my youngest son Mason who was diagonsed wth a rare syndrome called Cornelia de Lange Syndrome aka CDLS. My husband and I were devastaed initially and went through a period of grief. We now are so grateful for the amazing boy god has given us and look forward to everyday we spend with both our children.

Another year of Nursing School out of the way! Whoo Hoo....I know someday I'll finish:) Follow my journey at Learning to Have Patients.

Was introduced to the Fabulous world of blogging!! Met some really great people and have made some really great friends. Been part of great networking sites that are opening up great opportunities for me!!

Excited about what 2009 has to hold!! Looking forward to starting on my resolutions!

Kristen's Custom Creations

noreply@blogger.com (Megan) — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 00:38:00 +0000

Kristen Andrews knows a thing or two about jewelry. Just ask her....she has been making jewelry since a very young age! Kristen spends a lot of time dedicated to her jewelry business and doesn't mind it one bit! It is a labor of love! Her jewelry is beautifully hand-stamped and would make a great holiday gift for any jewelry lover! Her online store offers a huge selection of unique jewelry with high-end quality, and affordable prices! Here is her story of how she got started:

Kristen spent 11 years working for a large fortune 500 recruiting firm in various roles including, Account Executive, Director of Permanent Placement Services, Branch Manager, Metro Market Manager, and Division Director. After having her son she decided to take some time off to spend with him. After his birth she wanted a necklace that was really unique and couldn't’t find it so she decided to design her own necklace with her son’s name on it. Kristen started giving similar necklaces as gifts to friends and family and from there she was receiving so many requests she decided to open Kristen’s Custom Creations. Kristen’s Custom Creations specializes in creating custom hand stamped sterling silver necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. Her creations make perfect gifts for Moms to Be, New Brides, Bridesmaids, Grandmas, Aunts, Sisters and just about anyone who would cherish a handmade one of a kind piece of jewelry.
Kristen believes in giving back. Each month she selects a charity to design a specific necklace for and gives a portion of the proceeds for each necklace sold. To see more about her current charity selection visit www.kristenandrewsonline.blogspot.com

Ok, so Trick-or-Treating is officially over. Time to put away the Halloween decor. I have already seen Christmas decor and advertisments in local shopping centers and sale ads. Experts say that retailers are having to get started earlier this year to compensate for the economic hardships. Here, in Northwest Indiana, just 40 minutes from Chicago, a local Chicago radio station The Lite 93.9 is taking a vote on when to start Christmas music. Last year they started just a few days after Halloween. I think it was Nov. 4th!! How soon is too soon? I love the Holiday's and the music and I say bring it on!!! What do you think? Is it too soon? Are you ready to deck the halls?

I'm in Love!!

noreply@blogger.com (Megan) — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 00:02:00 +0000

I am having an affair. I am totally smitten....with my son's new stroller that is. It is the best investment my husband and I have made in a while. Our son has special needs and is a preemie. So he just fits perfectly and doesn't roll around like in our old stroller! Also, it goes up to 45lbs, has an adjustable handle for easy pushing, and folds up easily!! Oh yeah, and it come in some awesome colors. I just love this thing...it is the best invention since the Wonderbra!!
