There are tons of Holiday Gift Guides out there right now, and going from blog to blog can be daunting at times. I decided that instead of giving you my gift guide, I'd round up all of MY favorite gift guides, creating the Ultimate Gift Guide Round Up. I asked many of the bloggers behind the gift guides I love: If money was no object what is the ONE thing you want for the holidays? It has to be … [Read more...]
I'm lucky enough to have my children go to a Charter school, however, the way it works is that most of the budget comes from generous donations that have to be stretched pretty far. With today's financial situation hitting our school systems, every parent like myself wonders every day how the school systems will be able to stretch their budgets anymore than they already do. Macy's is giving away … [Read more...]
When back-to-school season comes around I am on the hunt for a new backpack, or lunch bag, or both. Schoolbags For Kids is more than just a bag though, it's a backpack with purpose. My love for a good/beautiful bag extends to the bags my children carry. No I'm not shallow, I just want them to have sturdy well organized bags for school. Imagine my delight when I met the fantastic Schoolbags For … [Read more...]

Between doctor appointments, medical forms, school records, and adorable homemade cards that are … [Read more...]
It wasn't until I started looking for the pictures of my children with their 1st teeth, that I realized it had been so long since I looked at baby pictures of my boys who are now almost 7 and 5.5. I cannot believe how much they have grown. Although my youngest is just over 2, seeing her baby pictures made me realize how much she's grown in 1 year. Her personality has evolved so much in that … [Read more...]

As parents our baby's 1st birthday is one of the moments in your child's life that you will never forget. I'm sure there are very few people who actually remember their 1st birthday, but there is no doubt in my mind that every parent remembers their children's 1st birthday.

Welcome to the Fashionably Organized party! Not only is it a blog party but today (the 1st) is my birthday. It's crazy to think that the ladies from 5 Minutes For Mom would throw me a party, but here we are.

For those of you who … [Read more...]
Japan was hit hard by an earthquake the likes of which we have never seen. I watched live on TV as the Tsunami was dragging buses and cars like matchbox cars across the country. I was riveted and couldn't even imagine what would be going through mind if I was there. We all sit here wondering how we can help, what can we do? It seems a million miles away, but then it's right here facing us in … [Read more...]
