When I was growing up, watching baseball with my father was one of my favorite things to do.  If you lived in Maine, you were a Red Sox fan by default, so my entire family (minus me, the Yankees defector) watched pretty much every game.  We even drove to Boston for games at Fenway now and then, and the minor league games in the southern part of the state.

A lot of father’s enjoy baseball, and if a father figure in your life does, as well, then you need to head over and enter the sweepstakes from Target and Dove Men+Care.  Create a quick video – either using Instagram or directly on the sweepstakes website – and using #DOVEALLSTARDAD as your hashtag.  Instagram videos can be up to 15 seconds long, and ones submitted directly can be up to 30 seconds.  But hurry – the submission period closes on May 4th.

The reviewer has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free.

I couldn’t believe it when I looked at the calendar today and realized that Mother’s Day is less than two weeks away.  I was trying to figure out where it fell between the Derby party and Ashley’s graduation, and it snuck up on me.  Hubby asked what I might want this year, and I hadn’t even had time to think about it!

This review and giveaway was made possible by Double Duty Divas and Mr. Clean. I was provided the featured product free along with a gift card to facilitate my review, but all opinions are 100% mine.

Not everyone loves cleaning.  I know, who would have guessed, right?  Even for myself, as much as I love organizing, there are some places I’d rather pass off the cleaning to someone else if at all possible.

Floors, for example.  I think it’s because it was one of my chores when I was a kid.  I also don’t really jump for joy when it’s time to clean the bathroom, either.

New Mr. Clean Liquid Muscle #CleanFreeWeekend

So when I recently heard about Mr. Clean Liquid Muscle, I knew I wanted to learn more.  It has 2.5 times more power in every drop, which means it a deeper clean, lifting away more dirt with less effort.  Now weekends mean less scrubbing time, which means more free time to play outside with Bubbles or make trips to the mall.

This sponsored post was written while participating in my partnership with Sprout and One2One Network, but as always, all opinions are my own.

Looking back at all the photos that have been taken since Bubbles was born always brings a smile to my face.  Watching her grow from wide-eyed baby to a toddler taking her first steps to the funny and energetic preschooler she is today helps me both relieve the memories and remind her of her progression.

But out of those thousands of photos commemorating every holiday, special occasion and every-day occurrence, there’s actually something missing.  And it’s missing from almost all of them.  Any guess to what that is? Continue reading »
