Katie Couric's Mommy Blogger Statistics

2008-07-17T07:41:00.001-07:00

If you haven't seen it - you've got to take a peek to see why our market segment is truly influential - and advertisers are knocking on our doors! She shows her gorgeous shoes too - and gives a real special shout out to the SV Moms Blog group and their fantastic cross country Road Trip sponsored by Chevy for 5 special Moms heading from D.C. to San Francisco for the BlogHer 2008 conference. I so wish I was going to be there today! There's always next year....

Wordless Wednesday: A Jungle Walk

2008-07-16T07:00:00.000-07:00

Gotta add words to this one again. Otherwise you really might think I actually journeyed to the Jungle! Thanks to my friend Sarah, now also addicted to blogging at These Are Days, for hosting this amazing playgroup, giving me a last minute invite, and letting me use her babysitter to watch Kyle so Kenzie and I could partake in the adventure. Sarah went all out with this playdate - creating a "Jungle Walk" in her woods. We started out the walk by reading a quick story about Dora and Diego getting backpack swiped by Swiper while they were on their way to a playdate with Baby Jaguar..... thus we had to journey into the Jungle to rescue backpack. Along the way we ran into inflatable jungle animals where each child could grab a prize - think Oriental Trading Company - with jungle stickers, tatoos, bubbles, fake bugs, plastic jungle tote bags, and more. And the walk ended with a visit from Dora herself! Over 19 Moms with oodles of kids attended. If I've ever met a Momfluential - it is Sarah! Thanks again for this super special day.

You'll never get locked out with Schlage's Keyless locks!

2008-07-15T12:02:00.000-07:00

Go Keyless with Schlage Locks and you'll never worry about getting locked out of your house again! Schlage packages together both convenience and top of the line dead bolt safety to make you feel secure and enable you to share access with your home to those who need it when you can't be around.

Think emergency Air Conditioner fix which just happened to me this weekend - or your bugman, cleaning service, or trusted babysitter. Not to mention teenagers that might come home from school only to find they left their keychain in their locker! They've got brass, bronze and nickel to match your style.

We just got an aged bronze to review and I'm nagging my husband to install it. However, I need to call my inner handy man and step up to the plate as all you need is a screw driver to install it!

I can't tell you how many times we've lost electricity - just when I happen to take the car keys that don't have the house keys attached. I find myself running to the neighbors praying they've got my spare key and are home! And the idea of this programmable key pad lock seems far more secure to me than a garage door opener tied to a key pad code. I understand that once people start using these keyless locks - they'll never go back to a normal front door key and lock system. Thanks Schlage.

Scrubbing Bubbles Action Scrubber Makes Cleaning a Little More Fun!

2008-07-14T11:47:00.001-07:00

Celebrity Moms Give Back: Kimberly Williams Paisley talks with Classy Mommy

2008-07-11T00:01:00.000-07:00

Classy Mommy talks with star and mommy, Kimberly Williams Paisley about giving back. Ever since her days as the beloved star in the movie, The Father of the Bride, I've been a fan of this inspiring and clever actress who is now also a Mommy.

Classy Mommy: I find having children inspires many Moms to better themselves as we all want to be role models for our kids and make the world a better place for them to grow up in. Since having a child, how has your perspective on giving back changed?

My heart has expanded since having a child. I feel more connected to the community, because I am part of something bigger than myself. I am part of a large group of parents who are absolutely in love with their kids and want the best for them. And I think that makes me more generous and less selfish.

Classy Mommy: What are some of your favorite causes? And why are they important to you?
I love St Jude's hospital. That place is a working miracle, every day. I love helping out smaller charities for orphan diseases like XP and Ataxia (http://www.xps.org/ and http://www.team25.com/). These people (mostly kids) don't get federal funding for their problems and don't get much help through research either. My heart goes out to them. I'm also on the board of a new organization called Inspiring Kids that is a start-up non-profit aimed at getting young kids involved with environmental stewardship and student philanthropy. It is a very young organization, and it is fun to be involved from the beginning. Lastly, I just wrote a book called Henry and the Hidden Veggie Garden. I hope this book will inspire kids to eat more veggies!

Classy Mommy: Why is this particular cause special to you?
I hate to see kids being held back--whether it be through sickness or poverty or lack of education or lack of nutrition--from their highest potential. There are so many possibilities in a child, and I want to see every kid be all that they are capable of being. Nothing makes me happier than seeing a happy, healthy child.

Classy Mommy: How can others get involved?
Donate to the websites! And feed your children veggies. Buy my book at http://www.loveyourveggiesgrants.org/, because all the proceeds go to Books From the Heart, which is another great organization aimed at giving kids living in poverty the tools they need to read, succeed and make a difference.

Classy Mommy: How do you hope to instill core values about giving back to your children?
I hope to teach Huck about giving back at an early age. We'll teach him by our example, and when he saves money, we'll teach him to ear mark a portion of it for charity. I hope he'll learn how good it feels to give something valuable away to someone else who needs it.

Hitting NYC to meet TNT's "The Closer" - Kyra Sedgewick

2008-07-10T08:08:00.000-07:00

Our trip to NYC went fabulous. Musings of a Housewife and I talked non-stop on our train ride from Philly and luckily us suburban mommies made it to NYC with no snafus. (here is a video of us on the train!) We loved the premiere of "The Closer" which hits on July 14th - you soooo should watch it. Just getting out of the burbs and hitting an event in NYC was thrilling for Jo-Lynne and I. Got to meet lots of fabulous Mommy bloggers and Mom Entrepreneurs - like Jen Singer, Nina, the founder of one of Classy Mommy's favorite products, the Mom Agenda, and Beth Feldmen, founder of RoleMommy.com and organizer of this premiere for Moms. I even got to do a quick interview for Mom Logic so we'll see if I end up making it on the air although I got kinda nervous and think I flubbed it up.

Saw my first ever chocolate fountain too. Swiped a strawberry through and it was divine! I am obsessed with dark chocolate so the aroma of this fountain was incredible in the showroom. Didn't know these things really existed!

Even cooler was seeing Kyra Sedgewick for a quick 15 min Q&A. Total She truly was in and out of our event in a flash. Total Movie Star. Totally glam. Ultra skinny like you can't believe in person. Also thought she was totally "real", honest and likeable as far as the Q&A with us Mamas went. Talked about her marriage being fabulous (20+ years to Kevin Bacon almost unheard of in Hollywood circles) and when asked Why? she felt she truly was just LUCKY and that they had similar parenting styles and that she of course still if fortunate enough to totally LUST after her husband (if only we were all married to Kevin Bacon huh?) Even takled about the pressures of being thin and losing babyweight and she said she totally breastfed which helped enormously. (I can personally relate to that as I attribute breastfeeding to losing my baby weight) And she was honest in saying that in the past she too was terribly caught up in the Hollywood pressures of being thin and that she had a stage where she was an obsessive exerciser.

I took some Flip Videos of her during the Q&A but it looks like it is hard to hear her (it was totally normal in person!). So I'm not sure how they'll sound to you - they aren't great! Here is one on Kyra talking about being a working Mom (only 1 minute and 2 seconds!)

And all our obsessing over outfits was for naught. Really people were anything and everything and we fit in just fine in the above outfits we put together after various trips dragging our kids to the outlets and malls. And of course I ended up wearing something I already owned with the exception of a new purse, aqua beads and earrings.

Huge thank you to Beth from Rolemommy.com for including us in your special event. We loved it and were thrilled to travel up from Philly to the Big Apple.

Wordless Wednesday: Big Crawler

2008-07-09T07:12:00.000-07:00

Kyle has been crawling like a mad man now for almost 7 weeks. He is now unstoppable. Going under and over everything at very high speeds. Particularly considering he is still doing some fast moving version of a very coordinataed arm and leg army crawl! I'm in for it!

Dessert with Kyra Sedgewick!

2008-07-08T05:20:00.000-07:00

Sorry for being a bit secretive yesterday, but Jo-Lynne and I were waiting for an official OK to dish on our upcoming NYC event. So here it is! A private screening of TNT's "The Closer" which will air all new on July 14th. Drinks and Dessert are to follow supposedly with a Q&A with star Kyra Sedgewick (also wife of Kevin Bacon!)

So what would you ask if her? Let us know and we'll see what we can find out for everyone.

This truly is the equivalent of a night at the Oscars for me - an ordinary East Coast Suburban stay at home Mom with 2 kids both 2 & under. It is just unbelievable and I'm sure we will be both be a little starstruck. Sometimes I feel like I hardly get more than 3 miles from my house as my only trips are to the YMCA, Target, local mall, or Valley Forge Park for a run! So getting out of my house and town for a change of scenery is going to be a total treat. I can't wait to see the show, hopefully eat some tasty desserts with Kyra, and chat non-stop on the train with my new blogging buddy Jo-Lynne - who actually lives in my town! We've got to stop emailing and coordinate in real life -I'll probably end up seeing her at the mall or outlets today as we both make one last hurrah to find the perfect accessories for our outing in the Big Apple tomorrow night!

Beaches Resort: Save up to 45% and get 2 nights free!

2008-07-08T02:00:00.000-07:00

Oh wow. I want to book this trip now. Like right now. Like yesterday!

I'm dying to book a family vacation for Mike, Kenzie and Kyle and I this fall as Kyle will be almost 1 year old. We took Mackenzie to the Cayman Islands right after her 1st birthday as we finally felt comfortable enough to really "travel" with her - and we were antzy to get out of the country for some fun in the sun. You know after you have kids the adventures of old become a bit more challenging - forgetting the additional cost and gear you need to bring - you're now responsible for kiddies too.....

I think the family style Beaches Resorts in either Turks and Caicos or Jamaica will be a grand slam of fun, convenience, and value for our family of 4.

The fun factor scores ultra high on this vacation. Especially now that I'll have a 3 year old in tow. The Beaches Resorts Caribbean Adventure with Sesame Street® is all part of the package. Think story time with Elmo, baking with Cookie Monster, dancing with Zoe, exploring with Grover, making music with Bert & Ernie along with Sesame Street stage shows, character parades and character breakfasts (for a nominal charge).

The convenience is that these resorts are really designed for families in mind so I know I'll be able to get what I need when we need it! Plus the pricess are all inclusives so literally the food and the fun is all part of the price that we'll pay. And since we'll be dining at the resort we won't need to worry about transportation to get to a dinner reseravation. They've even got supervised kids camps for all ages (from newborns to tweens and teens - Crayola Art Camps and an Xbox 360® Game Garage for the older ones!) so I'd love to take advantage of a few hours at least a few days for Mike and I go snorkeling, play tennis, etc. as clearly our 3 year old and 1 year old can't quite participate in these activities yet!

And as for value....besides being an all-inclusive and being able to select the kind of room to fit our budget and needs - the WonderFALL Celebration at Beaches Resorts is a deal. Seriously, I've been looking around at tons of resorts and when I combine all the fun and convenient factors along with the all inclusive aspect and the SALES on right now - this looks like the trip we should book. If you book now for a stay during the off-peak season months of September and October - not only do you get to enjoy everything Beaches offers year-round but you can SAVE up to 45% off** published rates and get 2 Nights Free** (on stays of 7 nights or more).

Okay - I'm in. Just need to convince my husband to agree........ I'll keep you posted!

The Red Carpet is Calling!

2008-07-06T17:28:00.001-07:00

Okay, well the red carpet is not exactly calling me - but I think this Wednesday I'll get as close as I'll ever get to a red carpet event. As a Mom living in the suburbs of Philly, an invite to attend a VIP screening of a hot TNT show in NYC is practically equivalent to being invited to the Oscars.

Serendipity brought me the invite, but I've got to thank my new blogging buddy - Musings of a Housewife - who just happens to live in my town (thank you Serendipity again for that one!) for agreeing to venture out of the 'burbs to the Big Apple with me. Would have done it alone, but kind of freaked out about the return train travel and parking lot walking late at night. So, if it weren't for her, I wouldn't even be going!

We don't really know what to expect but supposedly we'll be able to share dessert and drinks with a movie star after the screening. We are so excited and can't wait to share the gossip, rundown, and details with everyone on our blogs.

Right now we're both desperate to find outfits. I mean I am so desperate. What does one wear when you are going to have dessert with a movie star?

Do you ever feel like you are trapped in some kind of Mom Time Warp - and all of your clothes - even if the actually still fit - are all too long, too short, too bright, too big, or just too 5 years ago? Even went shopping with both kids last week to no avail. The time warp is holding me so tight that even when I try to shop for something new nothing seems to fit!

DH doesn't see why it's a big deal at all...( guys don't get it huh?) However, he is probably right.

As if anyone will even glance at 2 Mommies from Philly when a movie star is in the midst.....

Pampers Mommy Blogger Event

2008-07-03T11:25:00.000-07:00

Pampers, a product of P&G, is hosting an all expense paid Mommy blogger event at the end of July. My blogging buddy Stephanie from Metropolitan Mama is invited and I couldn't be more thrilled for her. You can read all about it here. And yeah, sure I wish I was invited, but the next best thing for me will be hearing all about Stephanie's adventures. I only wish Steph and I would be meeting in real life (she is from Arizona and I'm outside Philly - someday!) If you have feedback on Pampers - definitely leave her a comment and she can share it during her trip.

I think it is totally fabulous how more and more companies are reaching out to Mommy Bloggers to better connect with their customer base. And the really beautiful thing about this is that I believe blogging has given a voice to a powerful segment of the population - Moms - who previously didn't really have a platform to be heard.

Mommy bloggers share so much on their websites -thoughts, feeling, opinions, and product recommendations. Moms are putting their gut out there on the line and the organization of events by brands like Pampers and J&J show we are being heard! Graco even offered to join us and treat us to dinner for our casual local Philly Mommy Blogger meet up. I love it. Besides being able to purge all your feelings on both the struggles and joys of parenting - blogging opens Moms up to a virtual community and sisterhood across the country - where only having one thing in common - being a Mom - enables you to belong.

Being a new Mom can be isolating and especially confusing given the wealth of products on the market for children and varying parenting styles & tricks out there to help you get your kids to sleep through the night, deal with the terrors of teething, or diffuse a 2 year old tantrum. Connecting online with so many virtual friends has made my journey as a Mom more complete. So thanks to all my new & old blogging friends! And if you haven't started a blog yet - think about it!

Wordless Wednesday: Camels and a Warthog!

2008-07-02T02:00:00.000-07:00

Last week, I took Kenzie and Kyle to the Philadelphia Zoo for the very first time. Decided to invest in the Annual Zoo membership which really is a deal as long as you go more than 1x and especially if you hope to bring guests! So, I brought along my parents to share in the good times and assist me in the adventure. Reinforcements are always a bonus!

The highlight of the trip was a 100 yard camel ride that Mackenzie and her Poppy were able to enjoy. And forgetting all the amazing and awesome close ups we had with Zebras, Lions, Tigers, and Bears, Kenzie was most impressed with this statue of a Wart Hog.... Yes a Wart Hog......Days before we visited the zoo I asked her what she was most excited to see.

She replied "A Wart Hog Mommy. Just like from my Africa Puzzle. You already know Wart Hogs are my favorite animal."

So she has been telling me this for some time.....I guess I shouldn't have been surprised. Although we haven't even done the Africa puzzle for months, clearly the wart hog is still her favorite beast of the jungle. Luckily we found this statue - it was as good as the real thing to her!

Tot-to-Go Baby Sling

2008-07-01T18:18:00.000-07:00

I've always thought of myself as a coordinated person. That is, until I attempted to put my 6-month old son, Colin, in a baby sling. Tot-to-Go sent Classy Mommy a beautifully constructed sling in a really nice, super soft fabric. I do not blame the sling for my lack of coordination, as there is nothing complex about it! If you are a baby-wearing fan, this would be a great option for you. I normally use a front carrier for my son, but I find that it's a bit bulky to travel with. What I really like about a sling is that it is so easy to fold up and take with you for those times where you're not sure if you'll need to carry your baby or use a stroller. (example: The Phillies game I just went to) Tot-to Go carries slings in 4 solid colors and 5 beautiful patterns. I'm a fan of the disco dot sorbet pattern, but I'll have to hold off on getting that one until a) I have a daughter and b) I gain some coordination! $59.99

Summertime Fun

2008-07-01T13:25:00.000-07:00

5 different shows in one video! Barney teaches your kids about the wind and the sun, Bob the Builder builds a campsite, and Thomas tries to find the end of the rainbow. There is also an episode of Angelina the Ballerina and Fireman Sam. This newly released video will be great for kids who can't make up their minds as to what they want to watch, great for siblings who can't agree on what to watch, and great for parents who don't want to sit through an hour of Barney! $10

More work from the Artist in Training....

2008-07-01T06:05:00.000-07:00

After taking photos of Mackenzie's doodles a few weeks ago, she is constantly requesting I snap pics of her renderings. How can I say " No, that scribble isn't camera worthy" although as you can imagine not every drawing would normally make you stop in your tracks to pull out a camera. Being the encouraging parents, we find ourselves clicking away again and again. Last thing we want to do is crush her beautiful imagination although now I fear we are creating a little 2 year old artist with an ego........

Strawberries Galore!

2008-06-30T18:24:00.000-07:00

Summertime means strawberries galore in our household. Mackenzie & I can't get enough of them. We eat them almost daily for a snack and sometimes in cereal, on pancakes in the morning or even in a smoothie for a tasty treat. With all the strawberries we eat, Mackenzie loves sporting this Classy Mommy fave - a Happy Panda Strawberry tee originally from last summer. It is a little tight now that she is a year older....... but she loves that she can also match Kyle who has a Happy Panda tee with a Soccer Ball on it!

California had a record smashing strawberry season this year and I just came across these fun tidbits that remind me of snapple facts! Share these ones with your kids:

-If you lined up all of the strawberries grown in California in one straight line, they would wrap around the entire Earth 15 times.
-Guessing game! There are about 200 seeds on the outside of each strawberry.
-California harvests over a billion pounds of strawberries annually.
-One acre of land (about the size of one football field) grows about 50,000 pounds of strawberries - that's the same weight as 4 elephants!

And if you want to mix up your strawberry routine check out this link as hundreds of strawberry recipes can be found here. For more strawberry entertainment, Visit Strawberryville, an online destination for kids full of interactive games, activities and kid-friendly recipes!
