RADIO RECAP: OSCAR NOMINATIONS, CHILD SUPPORT AND HAVING AN OPEN RELATIONSHIP WITH OUR CHILDREN

RADIO RECAP: OSCAR NOMINATIONS, CHILD SUPPORT AND HAVING AN OPEN RELATIONSHIP WITH OUR CHILDREN
March 8, 2010 by Shynea
I have to say that Sunday's radio show was my favorite thus far. (But in all honesty, I can see myself saying that about every radio show because next weeks topic is HOT.) We had a great turn out this week with over 50+ live viewers. For the second week of the new radio show format that is a great turnout and I can only imagine what the future will hold for me an my wonderful co-hosts Jen and Alanda. The topics that we covered, and got into really good conversation about, were: Our Oscars talk. We discussed the nomination of Disney's "Th...

RADIO SHOW RECAP FOR FEBRUARY 21ST

RADIO SHOW RECAP FOR FEBRUARY 21ST
February 25, 2010 by Shynea
I had so much fun hosting this weeks radio show. (Besides the fact that I was nervous, sick and rambled on-and-on by myself for 30 minutes.) I talked about the failure that is the media when it comes to Tiger Woods, as well as gave a few tips on how to protect our children and an important website so you can keep track of the sexual offenders that move into your neighborhood. If you haven't been able to make it to one of the live shows, then you can always come here and catch the replays. If you listen all the way through my droning, leave ...

FINDING A GOOD SIPPY CUP IS WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD

FINDING A GOOD SIPPY CUP IS WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD
February 19, 2010 by Shynea
We go through sippy cups on a weekly basis. To transition my two baby boys from bottles to sippy cups, I introduced them to the sippy cups that had a soft spout instead of the hard spout. This was the best, and worse, thing that I could have done because they now refuse to drink from a sippy cup with a hard spout. Normally this would be fine, but there is one problem: I have a chewer. My two year old son loves to chew on the soft spout of his sippy cup. The end results? He goes through a cup a week because he chews a hole and then mass leak...

HOPSCOTCH TEES – CUSTOM SHIRTS FOR KIDS

HOPSCOTCH TEES – CUSTOM SHIRTS FOR KIDS
February 7, 2010 by Shynea
As a mom, I love shopping for clothes for my kids. I am always on the lookout for fun, unique clothes for my two year old son.  I was approached to do a review for Hopscotch Tees, a kids' tee shirt company,  and I quickly agreed. I visited the Hopscotch Tees webite and the excitement began to build. It is always fun to get personalized clothing because my son has an unpopular name that isn't on most named merchandise. There are designs to choose from for both boys and girls and a good variety of them. I was happy to see that there are pictu...
