My favorite store ever online (the one that I order everything from for my businesses) is now selling t-shirts! I wish they were doing that when I was selling lia sophia, because I would have been a huge customer for that.
However, enough about why I think this is cool. Let me tell you why you want to use VistaPrint. First, they are cheap. I order my business cards from them, because I only have to pay for shipping. If you want a custom picture on your cards, it is an extra $5. Another thing I love about Vista Print is that they have anything and everything you need for a business from t-shirts I mentioned before to business cards to stampers. They are always have sales. Once you get on their email lists, you will find that whatever you need to order is usually on some sort of sale. For example, if you use TShirts25 you can get 25% off any T-shirts that you order! I have also always been impressed with the quality of their products. I have yet to receive a product that I did not like!
I can only say lots of good things about Vistaprint. I would highly recommend them for all your personal and business needs.

I am a diehard Pampers fan. My kids are pee machines, and no other diaper held up better than Pampers. My favorite Pampers diapers have to be the Pampers Swaddlers. Now, I am super excited to announce that Pampers has a new Swaddlers on the market. They are called Pampers Swaddlers Sensitive. These diapers are both hypoallergenic and very gentle for your babies skin. These are definitely for the little ones with super sensitive skin or were born with diaper rash (yes, I know children who it looked like were born with diaper rash). These are super soft diapers; it would be surprised if you could find another diaper out there soft like this. The absorb away liner is awesome. It truly does keep the wetness away from the baby’s little butt. The sides of this diaper are also ultra breathable and soft and stretchy. You can actually take the sides of the diaper and blow through them and still feel your breath. Why is this important? My kids would get pricky heat rashes where the sides are with other diapers — never with pampers. I have to think the breathablility helped prevented this. Though, I have to say that I think the most awesome part of these new diapers is the what I like to call “The Pee Indicator”. Nothing is more frustrating than when you can’t tell if they went in the diaper or not. It will look like it, but not feel like, and then you end up doing a poll of the room to see if you should change your little one. Pampers Wetness Indicator (that’s what they like to call it) is a strip on the outside of the diaper that changes from yellow to blue when your baby is wet. No more guessing!
Now, Pampers was kind enough to send me a pack of the Pampers Swaddlers Sensitive diapers to giveaway to one of my lucky readers! This pack has 34 diapers in it and are a Size 2 (which is 12-18 lbs). What do you have to do win this?

My contest for the That Baby CD and DVD closed tonight, so I have a winner to announce for everybody. I ran all the comment numbers through Random.org and the winner is Lisa from Queen of Pith! Congrats Lisa! I know this is way more exciting than seeing a charlotte north carolina dentist! I’ve already sent Lisa an email, so hopefully I’ll be hearing from her shortly.

My family and l luck out. We have plenty of credit cards at our disposal when I want to do some online shopping. However, not everyone can get a credit card, or if they have one, it is only for emergency purposes. What do you do when you want to shop and not use a credit card?
EBillMe comes to the rescue and allows you to pay cash online by using the bill pay portion of your checking account. I personally tried out this service yesterday, and it is super easy to use. First, I went to Tiger Direct to order a Wii game. You click on the add to cart just like you normally would. Then click on proceed to secure check out. Fill in all your information and where it says “submit order” pick eBillMe. That’s it! You now have ordered using your checking account! Now, on the screen you will have what you need to set up payment through your bank. You also will get an email too! Everybody’s bill pay is different, so I won’t go through how to set that up, but they make it super easy by giving you everything you need. I didn’t take me any longer to buy my game this way verses using a credit card (that is because it usually takes me a while to find my purse and wallet that has my credit card).
If you prefer not to shop online using your credit card, I highly recommend EBillMe. This is also a great way to shop if you don’t want to be handing out your credit card number too!

I am all for saving money. What woman doesn’t want to save a couple of bucks when she is shopping? Nowadays, most of us have moved our shopping online and love coupon codes. FindSavings.com is a great place to get your coupon codes to save yourself a couple of bucks. You can easily find what you are looking for. On the left sidebar, you can search for your coupon either by using the category list or the store list. On the right sidebar, you can see all the new coupons that have been added into their system. The middle column has all of your featured deals. I personally am loving the HP Home Store Offers. Our HP desktop that we have now was custom built in 2000, and it still works! However, it is a tad slow compared to my laptop (which I bought in January). I had been thinking that we should do another custom built cpu, and I just found a coupon for $400 off! They even have coupon codes for my most favorite store: Best Buy. I can definitely always spend my hard earned money there. What is my favorite part of this site? I can sign up to get an email with the latest codes. Who wouldn’t want ways to save money sitting in their email? I know I am signing up for a couple of these coupon emails with my favorite stores. If you are looking for a one stop shop for your coupons, FindSavings.com is it.

We allow my four year old daughter on the internet. Yes, we are right there and monitor what she is doing. She is only playing games on Noggin or Disney Playhouse. However, I do worry about when she gets a bit older Did you know that:
- 41% of unwanted sexual solicitations, 29% of unwanted exposure to sexual materials, and 31% of harassment occurred when children were online with their friends. (I can believe this due to the IMs I get. I have it listed in my profile that I married, and I still get IMs from men wants who knows what).
- Law enforcement officials estimate that more than 50,000 sexual predators are online at any given moment.
- 1 in 5 youth ages 10 to 17 received a sexual solicitation or were approached online.
These are just a few of the scary statistics out there. I like to think that I am always going to know what my kids are doing online. However, I know that isn’t always going to possible. That is where GuardChild comes in. It does exactly what you think it does. Its all about protection, education, and community. You are able to protect your family by blocking pornography, stopping online predators, and monitoring instant messages, blogs, chat rooms (AOL, MSN, and Yahoo) email, and even what your child is doing on MySpace. You also are able to join the members community which will give you hundreds of articles, parent resources, educational sites, and family-friendly entertainment sites. Lastly, there is community. Guard Child has a blog that allows you to share concerns and successes, learn from online safety experts, and contribute articles, advice, and questions.
The saying that it takes a village to raise a child is still true. Things have changed so much since I was little. I can only imagine what it will be like in a few years when Madison will be trying to hide what she is doing online from me. However, I do believe in being proactive and software like this is exactly what you need.

I love when I come across jewelry sites that are so unique that I have to pass them along. Like the picture to left here, Jewels of Denial (I love that name!) has so many unique rings. Their prices are awesomely cheap (which I always love) and if you sign up for their email list, they will give you an additional 20% off! They also have earring, pendants, and bracelets too. Also, if you spend over $35 (and live in the US or Canada), you get free shipping! Personally, I can easily find $35 worth of stuff that I want. Also, if you spend over $75, they will send you a silver sapphire pendant for free. What are you waiting for, go check them out!
