Zosephine Diaper Bag – The Minneapolis ($108) – CLOSED

by Jennifer January 31, 2010 Reviews

At the risk of being judged by all the proud mommies out there, I must confess to needing to look like less of a mom on some days and more like the person I was before having children.  It isn’t that I am not a proud mom, just the opposite.  But where or where have [...]

Sharkeys Cuts for Kids – Free Hair Cut – CLOSED

by Mommy January 28, 2010 Reviews

I love a good hair cut.  Going to a salon and having someone massage your head and play with your hair for an hour is so relaxing, not to mention getting a full hour to myself without being crawled on a busy toddler.  I can’t understand why children have such an opposition to get their [...]
