Can Craig’s List & Walmart = The Pottery Barn?

We have been wanting to upgrade Tobey’s room from a his original nursery to a big boy room for a few months now.  Our house is smaller, so we didn’t need a huge bedroom suite that would shrink his little room, but I did want something that he could use at least through high school.  [...]

Best Friends Club

Just a few minutes ago while I was tweeting (too many of my blog post start out this way), I heard a dragging noise is the next room over. I asked Angelina “What are you moving?” and she replied “The dining room”. Ok, so for some reason I didn’t even go check, I figured if [...]

The Christmas Vacation That Almost Wasn’t…

As of  late Monday night, my husband and I made the very last minute decision to skip town on a ski trip to Wisconsin early Tuesday morning with some family and friends of ours. I was all bummed out on the way there because I’m very,very pregnant and really, …who goes on a ski trip [...]

I’m Changing the Rules

As some of you may know, I’m not the most domestic wife in the bunch.
Yesterday, I’m listening to music with my daughter, going through her CD’s and this crap pops up — Here We Go ‘Round the Mulberry Bush — Yes, I know the song, I’ve been hearing it since I was a kid, but [...]

Take Me Back Tuesday – World Aids Day Edition

This is our first meme participation here at Pink & Posh. First I’ll explain a bit about “Take Me Back Tuesday” then I’ll explain the picture, cool?
How do you play along?
We all have tons of photos from the days before the digital camera. I figure if I just scan a few each week, [...]

Faded Whiskers

What an exhausting day I had yesterday.
We had tickets to go to Ghostly Gala at the Long Island Children’s Museum last night. I really didn’t feel like sitting in a room with 300 other cranky toddlers hyped up on sugar, but I forced myself. I drove in the rain, lots of rain. A normally 15 [...]

Oh Ship!

This is going to be a quick post, but I need some advice from some veteran moms.
My daughter has a new thing. She says “Oh Ship” anytime something doesn’t go her way such as, not being able to open a tube of paint or breaking a crayon. You know what she’s trying to say. And [...]

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star with Tobey

I couldn’t resist sharing this video of my son singing with my sister to her baby who will be born around the end of this month. 
Man, I just want to EAT HIM UP!!!

Much Needed Date WEEKEND!!!

So the hubs came home last week and told me to pick a general direction for a short vacation. Since I thought it was a game, I threw out The Bahamas, Europe, Australia, you know…anyone’s pick for a “short” vacation…LOL. Well, little did I know that he had arranged for a babysitter for Thursday thru [...]

Sex and the…..Easter Bunny?

Yesterday my husband and I took the kids to meet some of our friends to have lunch. With the restaurant being very close to a shopping mall and the fact that is was pouring down rain, we decided that since the park was out of the question, we would go shopping. (woohoo!) I’m still looking [...]

WHAT! WHAT! WHAT!

Okay, so as I was putting the kids to bed last night, I guess my husband got ahold of my computer… That’s what I get for using the same password for absolutely everything! I hope you enjoyed his sweet post as much as I did!

How lucky am I?!

Shhhh, she might hear me!

Hello Everyone,

My name is, well it does not matter… I just wanted to say how much I love the woman behind this site. She is very creative and talented, but this is not the only reason I love her so much. I love the way she takes care of me when I am sick [...]

It’s TIME for Love!

It has been a long standing tradition between my husband & I that at least once a year we buy each other some sort of time piece. Whether it be a clock, a pocket watch, or a wrist watch, we have had fun in becoming very creative and unique when it comes to these sometimes [...]

Just the 2 of us…

I was recently asked to remember the most romantic Valentine’s Day that I have ever celebrated. As I thought about it, I came to the shocking realization that even though I have had some great ones, the most romantic and memorable Valentine’s Day for me was about 6 years ago. And to those of you [...]
