Parent's Choice Infant Formula

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of PBM Products for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

I have mentioned before how many companies will spend so much money on advertising for their product, and right now, I am here to mention it one more time.  The Parent's Choice Infant Formula is the Wal-Mart brand Infant formula that has all of the major ingredients of brands like Infamil and other formulas.  Right now the Parent's Choice Brand is having a sweepstakes where they are going to help send the student of one family to college with a $10,000 scholarship in the form of a College savings 529 plan.  Please visit Parent’s Choice Infant Formula Savings Sweepstakes for more information, rules, and entry form.

 

Wal-Mart has helped write the earliest chapters of millions of success stories by helping to produce equally nutritious products, for a reasonable price.  Now they are wanting to help even more with this sweepstakes, by investing in our children's wellbeing and now their education.  With PBM Products, LLC, a Perrigo Company, Wal-Mart has been a part of giving this scholarship to one lucky winner, so they are able to attend college to further their dreams.  The Sweepstakes will officially launch June 15th and will run through August 1, 2011.

This is the year

Guest post written by my buddy Bernardo Graham

My husband and I decided this was finally the year I was going to stay home for the summer. I’ve been a teacher for the better part of a decade but with the economy the way it was, it made sense for me to get a summer job during the summers to bring in a little extra cash. Our kids are at that age, though, where we’d have to hire a babysitter to watch them anyway which would eat up any extra money I was making, so it just made sense for me to stay home and watch them while they were out of school. I convinced my husband to look at www.atlantaHomeSecurity.com with me since I’d be home so often by myself and he thought it was a great idea. We talked to the kids about what was going to be expected of them and laid out house rules for the summer that they’ll be expected to follow. I’m looking forward to some time off and some play time with the kids!

Walgreens Brand Health & Welness Products

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walgreens for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

While this was my first time trying the Walgreens Brand Health & Welness Product, Green Tea Supplement, I had a wonderful experience!  Green Tea is suppose to boost the immune system with all of the antioxidants that is has as well as offer possible weight loss.  I have tried the name brand version of the Green T before, but I experienced nothing but bloating.  But this time, I tried the Walgreens Brand Green Tea Supplement, and had a much better experience.  I did take the supplement according to the dosing instructions on the back of the box, and  I experienced a slight weight loss and I did notice a  slight increase in energy.  As a stay-at-home Mom, I can use all the energy that I can get, without putting a bunch of chemicals and what-not in my body.  I am not a huge coffee drinker anymore, so I figured I would try the Walgreens Brand Green Tea.  All in all, it was an awesome outcome!  As many of us know, the name brand products spend so much money on advertising, so they end up passing the bill onto us by raising the price of the products.  In turn, you get up to 40 percent less product and you pay more.  Who wants to do that??  I don't know about any of you, but I want to take charge of my health the right way.  No matter who you are, or what situation you are in, everyone can benefit from saving money and being healthier.  Here are some additional facts about the Walgreens Brand Health & Wellness Products.  They are a great value, allowing families and individuals to save money without sacrificing quality or trust. With the rising cost of health care, saving money on over-the-counter medications can really benefit a family’s budget. In addition to being an exceptional value, Walgreens Brand Health & Wellness Products:

a. Are Walgreens pharmacist recommended.

b. Most contain the same active ingredients as other national brands.

c. Have a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

All for the USA

I had the honor of talking to my little brother, Broch, via Skype.  Skype is the online way to communicate anywhere in the world.  We use the web cam to talk to him and we love it.  It is  so sad to think that his entire career is serving the USA.  What does it mean to "fight" for our country anyway?  What do we (the USA) stand for anymore?
Well, I can tell you that listening to someone that has spent years in the military tell me that he fights for what our country used to stand for is extremely disheartening!  I cried.  Here we are, in several different countries, sending more and more troops to fight for our Presidents demands, and we, the citizens, don't even know what's going on. I don't have the answers to any of those questions, nor do I even pay any attention to politics anymore.

My Bro drinking "Korean Super Water"

But, I decide to try to see things in a positive light about my little brother being in the military.  When I talked to him a few days ago, we discussed how he gets to experience all kinds of different cultures, and he gets to see places that I will never have the opportunity to see!  He gets to transform his life so that he can blend in with the surrounding culture.  He "becomes" one of them, while still being himself.  What an amazing opportunity!  While we were talking, I thought it was so hilarious when I saw him take a drink from a water bottle, that looked extremely similar to the one I was drinking out of!  I took a picture, and I have to share.  My favorite bottled water is Aquafina.  So, you can see the Korean Super Water vs. Aquafina and laugh to your hearts content
with me.

Korean Super Water

  Isn't it hilarious????  Well, I think so.

Only One Lifetime

I feel like time has flown by since we saw her newborn face.  I found pictures the other day of our daughter, Zoi.  She looked so funny and yet she was the most adorable thing that I had ever seen!  Only the Mother of the child can appreciate what God has given her.  I was reading a devotional this morning about how God lends us our children for a short while.  Well, that is so true in so many ways.  Life is so short, and there are so many days when we are just "stuck" in reality, so we don't stop to appreciate what God has given us!  We focus solely on how beautiful they are when they are sleeping or taking a nap.  I have always tried so hard to cherish every, little, single moment of my childrens' lives.  Not only have I realized lately that I should slow down, but I've noticed how much I really appreciate my 'H'usband.......and yes, he is 'capitalized' because of how much he appreciates his family.  ....I love my Husband and children.
I sincerely wish that every person in this world could experience what I have now, without what I have had to experience in my lifetime....so far.  But, I guess that God have an order for all of our lives.  I do believe that everything happens for a reason.

Sincerely,


Mommy Dearest

Pregnant? Free BellyBag!!

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of CryoCell International for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

There are so many different kinds of things in the world that we try to protect our children from, but sometimes, no matter what we do, certain ailments are inevitable.  Like when we find out that one of our children has a devastating illness.   I think it is so important for every parent-to-be to learn about their baby's life, and how they are developing in each stage of pregnancy.   Now with all the advancements in technology, you would like to think that our typical Flu Shot would cure and prevent any type of serious sicknesses in our children.  But we all know that thit isn't the case. This is the number one reason that every parent-to-be should invest in cord blood banking, or at least get the information and check out what is it all about.  Request an information packet and consult with an advisor today at www.Cryo-Cell.com or www.Cryo-Cell.net  Plus, you get a free BellyBag.  I understand that not every person out there is financially able to do this, but the benefits completely out weigh any type of cost!  This is one of the many steps in learning about your new baby's options in life!  Congratulations and good luck!
