Perfectly Imperfect Mom


One of my favorite traditions growing up was going to the movies on Thanksgiving with my parents. This year we did things a little differently. Since we were traveling to my Aunts house we decided to start a new tradition of taking he kids to the movies the day after Thanksgiving. Since we don't go Black Friday shopping it seemed like a good way to spend the morning. While we were watching the previews I saw the one for Alvin and the Chipmunks. Since Alvin and the Chipmunks was one of my favorites when I was a kid it is great to get to see this with my little ones. I can not wait to go see it when it comes out on December 18th! 
Make sure to check back here December 14th for a fun Alvin and the Chipmunks giveaway!!!

They have three days to get to him and stop the proposal, saving themselves not only from losing Dave but possibly from gaining a terrible stepbrother.

I can't even explain how excited I am for Christmas this year. My girls are at an age where they are going to be really into unwrapping gifts and playing with their toys. Ace is just going to be so fun to watch all around. He gets so excited over anything to do with Christmas. I can't wait to bake cookies with him and do all the fun Elf on the Shelf activities. It's all just too exciting. 
I officially finished my Christmas shopping for the kids. I was a little lost on what to get the girls this year. Ace was so much easier because he loved trains and cars so we got him that. The girls love it too but they have all of Ace's old stuff. Second and third kid problems! Just kidding they live the life, these kids. So since I am done I thought I would share what we bought for our kiddos in case you are needing some ideas for children their ages. 
For Ashlyn & Everly

Step 2 Love & Care Deluxe Nursery / Little Tikes Lil' Shopper / Puppy Surprise / Lego Duplo Ice Cream Set / Wagon
For Ace

Habit Help from Van’s 

 This is the time of year when things can get a little bit hectic. Fall commitments are in full swing and days are shorter – in what seems like more ways than one. Add in a quickly approaching holiday season, and it can seem impossible to get everything done. I know it feels like it's non-stop from here to New Years! When we feel over-busy, it can be tempting to abandon good habits in the name of convenience. But of course that’s not good for anyone. That’s where Van’s can help – with wholesome, delicious options that are super-convenient for even the craziest of times. Take our new cereals. They’re made from a gluten-free whole grain blend, with deliciously indulgent flavors: Blissfully Berry and Cocoa Sensation. Yes, they’re wonderful with just milk and fruit – a super-easy, super-fast breakfast.
  vanscereal 
 But they’re also perfect to keep on-hand for snack time – in the pantry, in lunch boxes, even in the car. And because they bring a full serving of whole grains – and 5 grams of fiber – per serving, they’re a snack parents can feel good about.   They’re crunchily delicious atop sliced apples and peanut butter. . . bagelvans 
 Perfect in a fruit and yogurt parfait . . . vansparfait
And fabulous for snack mixes, like these from blogger Silvana Nardone. vansmix So pick up a box or two, and find out for yourself how tasty they are . . . and don’t forget to share! vansprize This month, Van’s is offering you a chance to win the new cereals along with a few other prizes.
