Disney Baby Little Character Contest Vote & Win

A big thanks to Disney Baby for sponsoring this post and the Disney Baby “Little Character” Contest.


When I think of my children or any child for that matter, they are full of magical moments.  It's hard to pin down just one.  After having three children with quite a big age gap, I cannot fully remember a lot from my oldest but I do remember her baby who is almost two.  My two younger ones are ages 5 and 9.  My magical moment came after both of them came down with unexpected chronic conditions.  My youngest almost didn't make it but in spite of her odds, she came through with shining colors although the doctors had no idea why she crashed so hard or how she was able to pull out of it.  After that incident, my two youngest seemed to form such a great bond.  After the hospital, they were very endearing to one another and the love just radiated.  To me, that was magical in itself to see two sisters become best friends.  Four years later, they are still just as close.






You can vote for your favorite Disney Baby 'Little Character' contest here.  Entrants previously shared a photo of their magical moments for a chance to win $10,000 towards this little one's education along with other prizes.  As parents, we know how hard it is to find that one magical moment but certain ones stay close to our hearts and mind and now you can help one of them win! 


It doesn't stop there as there is also a voter's sweepstakes prize too!  One lucky voter will win a beach vacation at Fairmont Miramar Hotel and Bungalows.  Voting ends July 19th but you can vote daily so what are you waiting for?

Coppin's Hallmark Pillow Pet Blanket Review & Choice of Prize Giveaway 7/31

Coppin GiftsGift giving is so much fun in my house.  I take the time to plan ahead and find that perfect gift for my loved one.  I do a lot of shopping online and prefer it actually to avoid the crowds and you really can find it all online.  My girls, like many other kids, are fans of Pillow Pets.  Why not?  They are soft and cuddly and make the perfect mate at night or when you just want to lie down.  We received a My Pillow Pet Dog Blanket from Coppin's Hallmark and I wished I had recorded their delight when they opened up the box.  They loved how soft it is and it's huge!  They have even put it over their heads to pretend they are a dog.  Each night, they have taken turns with it and to date, have not fought over him.  


It's the perfect gift and they have many varieties of the Pillow Pet blankets and regular Pillow Pets.  I don't think I've seen a bigger collection anywhere else.  They also carry those fun looking new slippers, Stompeez, that my girls want!  Since Coppin's Hallmark is available online, they also provide free shipping on orders over $30 in the lower 48 states.  From categories ranging from fashion to figurines to jewelry to puzzles and can't forget plush, toys and games.  There is something for everyone.

Redbox Summer Family Fun & Sweepstakes to Include Chance for a Role on Dino Dan

I want to enjoy the summer but everyone is already having back to school sales taking away from the excitement of summer.  The other day, I had some telephone interviews and it was raining outside.  On top of that, I had to find a way to keep my girls, ages 5 and 9, entertained and quiet.  All of a sudden, the door bell rang and prior to my interview, I ran down and opened the box on the steps and was very happy to show the girls what they just received.  This summer, Redbox is kicking off its "Summer Family Fun" program along with a sweepstakes.  As part of this summer time program, Phase 4 Films has made available eight titles available at your local Redbox location nationwide.




We received M&M's, fun rainy day activities, a deck of cards, a purple fleece blanket (we love purple due to epilepsy awareness) and eight DVDs.  This was an amazing pack of great fun and the girls really had fun with the blanket, candies and the movies.  They have already played a few times with the cards.  Some of these movies you might have heard about and other you may not:

  • I Heart Shakey - follows a single father, Steve Guttenberg, and his daughter as they move from a small town to Chicago with their family mutt named Shakey.  After not reading the rental contract completely, they discover they have to get rid of Shakey and find a new home.  The family fun movie ends up teaching a lesson about loyalty and the importance of families staying together.
  • Rockstars releases in August and has been awarded the Robert Award for Best Children/Family Film of 2012. Gloria and Barry, earthworms, live at the bottom of the food chain.  One day when an old disco record turns Barry's life upside down and he decides to start the world's greatest disco band.  Gloria becomes a singing sensation and shows the audience that earthworms can boogie.
  • Space Dogs - one of my girls' favorites!  This is an exciting tale based on the true story of Belka and Strelka, two dogs sent to space in 1960.  
  • Smitty is a heart warming story starring Peter Fonda, MIra Sorino and Louis Gossett, Jr.  Thirteen year old Ben and his struggling single mother is now facing the ramifications of his bad behavior and is sent to spend the summer with his estranged grandfather.  Jack, his grandfather, gets Ben a dog and between the dog and Gossett, he learns some new life lessons.
  • Kiara the Brave takes you to the land of Dreamzone which is a magical and peaceful kingdom. The king is captures and imprisoned by his evil brother and it's up to his daughter to save him.
  • My Friend Bernard releases in August and is based on a popular international hit animated series.  Sam, a shy boy, is afraid of almost everything.  One day, a mysterious man provides a magical pendant that provides a polar bear, Bernard, that becomes a solution to all his problems.  Bernard helps him lose all of his fears and enables Sam to face all his fears to include monsters.
  • Freddy Frogface centers around ten year old Victor and his friends who have to face a world full of stern grown ups and the town bully, Freddy Frogface.  Watch Victor perform in the circus as it comes to town and what Freddy Frogface does.
  • Donkey X is based on a 400 year old Spanish classic tale "Don Quijote de la Mancha and follows Rucio who is the most adventurous, brave donkey of Castile.  Rucio joins Don Quijote on his quest to battle and has to overcome obstacles.

Curious about the sweepstakes?  Prizes include round-trip tickets to Toronto to secure a role on Dino Dan!  This is a big deal among kids given the originality and creativity of the creators not to mention a cast of talented kids and interesting dinosaurs.  Also, a four day West Coast Princess Cruise for four and a seven day vacation for four to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.  This place is really cool and a must see!

It's easy to enter, just select one of the "Family Fun" movies at a Redbox location and enter an e-mail address at checkout and you will be automatically entered.  You can also enter without renting a DVD by visiting www.redboxsummerfamilyfun.com.

The Impossible Genius Relationship? Check Out The Big Bang Theory



If you reading this and watch The Big Bang Theory, you probably have a bit of experience with mixmatched couples.  Whether it's yourself or someone you know, you probably experienced that moment when you realized that either you or someone else didn't measure up in a relationship.  Often times, it's an intelligent factor and from what I know, if the female is smarter than the man, that can cause all sorts of issues.  At first, it's probably pretty cool for the man but after time, they realize that something is amiss and it usually boils down to a control issue.  For the female, there are all sorts of discontentment issues that follow.  I'm not saying this is true of all relationships where one is smarter than the other because someone usually is.  This is more the extreme where someone might be considered a genius.


On the Big Bang Theory, it's just the case with Penny and Leonard.  Leonard is the big smart, physics genius and who can really compare to someone with that level of genius?   Not only is their relationship complicated but when you throw that in, it's going to be pretty hard.  Even after going on a date, Penny ends up breaking things off with Leonard fearing she isn’t as smart as the physics genius. 


Have you ever had an experience like that or new someone who had?


If you are a fan of the Big Bang Theory, you can purchase the complete first and second season on Blu-Ray combo pack with the link below.


The Big Bang Theory: The Complete First and Second Season on Blu-Ray Combo Pack






I have been hired by Warner Bros WBWord division to raise awareness for 'The Big Bang Theory.

Miche Base Bag & 2 Shells Giveaway 7/16

Image Source
We all know as ladies that what we wear has to match including purses and handbags. If we had a choice we would have a bag for every outfit and every occasion. Here is the problem, who has that much room in their closet? I know many of us don't. I barely have enough room for my clothes let alone try to share the closet space. There’s a solution to have a purse for every outfit but not give up so much space!!! Miche has a new unique concept for handbags. You can change the look of the bag just by changing the exterior. Miche offers different fashionable shells and accessories to customize your bag to whatever you like. When I first found out about Miche handbags, I just had to get my hands on one. I was impressed at how great the bag looks. What was even more impressing was how easy it was to change out the shells to change the look of the bag entirely. It is easy to create your own bag, just pick a base bag, put on a shell, and add some accessories. That's it!


I found it refreshing not having to transfer stuff from purse to purse when I need to change bags. The bags are fashionable and saves a lot of closet space. The Miche handbags are chic and affordable. I got the Farrah and Pat shell for my Prima base bag. I love the Farrah shell the best. The snake pattern and pleated detail on the bag looks great. So far I have had great comments on my Miche bag.

Want to get a Miche Bag for yourself? Here is your chance! Just enter below to win a Prima base bag, a Morgan Prima shell, and a Parker Prima shell.  Health, Beauty, Children and Family is not responsible for the shipment of the prize.
