“I participated in an Ambassador Program on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Huggies. I received product samples to facilitate my review and to thank me for my participation. All opinions are my own.” As a mom, diapers have become a way of life. It’s worked it’s way into our budget like a car payment every month, and you just become accustom to pinning down a toddler with one arm while trying to… Keep Reading
Being a New York mom means always having to dress your babies “fashionably” for the playground. No, seriously. I get some raised eyebrows when Maximo hits the slides in sweat pants. But, dressing fancy everyday can be exhausting AND expensive – especially here in NYC. We may or may not have dropped $90 on a pair of boots for Maximo. No judgement. So, when Carter’s reached out to me to… Keep Reading

I don’t know if you remember, but last year, a stranger bought my dinner on Valentine’s Day. I was traveling back from Pittsburgh, Claudio was flying back from work, and Maximo and I stopped in the middle of no where PA at Cracker Barrel to eat and take a break. It took me a few minutes to understand why everyone was staring at Maximo and I with looks of pity… Keep Reading
If you couldn’t tell by the name of my blog, I LOVE football. Sometimes I don’t always WRITE about it here because, well, the Steelers aren’t exactly playing in the Big Game this weekend….. But that doesn’t mean I am not SYKED for some football. And there are TONS of things going on around the city that can get you in the mood whether you particularly like football or not…. Keep Reading
So quite a few of you have reached out to me and asked me about blogging. Can you make a living from it? How do you get started? Is it fun? Do you really exposure your whole life? To be honest – if you scroll alllll the way back to the very first post on my blog EVER, you’ll see – I NEVER expected to be a blogger. I call… Keep Reading
Ahhhh you gotta love when city life and country life collide. Like when the PBR (Professional Bull Riding) comes to Madison Square Garden. Yes, they cover MSG with dirt and let cowboys ride bulls right in the middle of NYC. And I’ve been there. In fact – Shelby did we miss it this year???? Now – MONSTER TRUCKS. Yes I KNOW but come ON! I was a tom boy! I… Keep Reading
I’ve been DYING from a cold these last few days, and am desperately missing my cup of morning coffee. I just haven’t been able to stomach it. Needless to say, it hasn’t been a very pleasant household. No sleep and no coffee = stay away from Stephanie. So, being that I’m feeling better and plan to grab my fave – a hazelnut light and sweet large coffee from Dunkin –… Keep Reading

I wonder how our parents grew up without cell phones regularly. Maybe it’s just because I am a mom, AND I live in NYC – but I rarely leave the house without a photo op presenting itself. I mean BE HONEST: – how many pics of your kids do you snap to get the perfect one for Instagram? – how many times do you go out of the way to… Keep Reading
I was just out with fellow NYC mom blogger Allison Cooper of Project Motherhood this weekend at the Astoria Halloween parade, and as we were looking around, we were commenting on how quickly products for moms change. Being her son is 8 years old, she mentioned how they didn’t even have baby carriers then. Wow! You mean she SURVIVED without an Ergo? Or Food Containers for kids like ReSqueeze? Get… Keep Reading
