I think of my site as a cute little site that is used to share giveaways, which everyone loves. I also feel it is my personal online space to help share smiles, giggles and shake your head moments. Happily Blended and Moms Vacation Land are just glimpses into who I am as a person, a mother and a woman. There is no real niche here other than a positive parenting, mother of three who knows that ME time is important too. No matter how many times I reply to people letting them know I have an insertion fee, let’s face it, to get your article noticed in a magazine or newsletter you have to do something to have your name out there. Unless, you are a writer being paid as a columnist for that paper or magazine.
I know this is my site and my site goes by my rules.
Lately I have been deleting email after email because it is as if everyone wants something for free. Believe me, I do share guest posts for free no insertion fee on a case by case basis, that means it doesn’t hurt to ask but when I reply with my answer do not come back 3-5 months later or even a day later, asking the same thing and getting all huffy because I gave you the same answer.
The blogging income has changed in the past four almost five years I have been blogging and I found out through hard work that there will be new bloggers hopping online thinking what we do is easy, that they can sit back and just get free things all of the time. I sure hope they are paying taxes on those free items, didn’t know you were suppose to? Well maybe you should research a bit on how the blogging business really works with taxes and what income you claim with this business.
Last but not least, it feels GREAT to just delete emails. I used to feel obligated to reply to every single email I received but no longer am I that woman. If I can tell the email is not of importance to me, not from a contact I work with frequently or has zero to do with my blog I first pass along to MomDot VIP Forum {if applicable} and then delete it.
Feels good to click that little delete button. It has freed up more time than you can imagine! Cheers for that little DELETE key on our keypads!
We are heading into a holiday weekend, it’s Memorial Day weekend. A three day weekend here but my children will be off having a blast with their Dad’s. I get to enjoy a nice BBQ with my Dad, the boyfriend, my sister and her baby girl this weekend at some point.
In the meantime I will be packing boxes, labeling them and tossing out stuff into a free pile, but all the while having a blast!
Enjoy the weekend and always be thankful for what you DO have in life! <3
When these two girls get together they are super goofy. Of course they are both in those tween years which means hormones can be off and moods up and down. I am okay with that, after all I am female and can completely understand while assisting in deterring too much of a major melt down.
I am a calm parent, usually. I also encourage my kids as well as my boyfriend’s kids to be their own self. Speak up for what they are feeling and remember that around me, you can say anything as long as you are respectfully sighting your opinion or feelings. I do not condone disrespectfully approaching your opinions or feelings.
With that being said, these two girls crack me up when they get together. This video was taking a while back but just makes me giggle every time I watch it because to this day these two girls will just break out singing and dancing like this on a whim….
I am excited to share with you another app for children that helps them engage in fun while learning. Technology is something that is going to be a huge part of our children’s worlds as they grow up so why not introduce them when they are young?! Today I am sharing Ebooks & Kids who have worked hard to create educational apps for children ages 2-10. Today I am sharing WEE Kids ABC and WEE Kids Math, both are available on iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation) and iPad as well as FB Games and Android systems.
Wee Kids Math features algebra and arithmetic basics, numbers 0-20, calculations for beginning learners, addition and subtraction. Also included are Logic and memory games. What struck me as awesome is that this app does not include any third party advertising that may end up with your child purchasing something or downloading something that they should not onto your iPad. This is truly a child friendly app that makes parents happy because their children are learning.
Wee Kids Math was created with kids in mind first, Ebooks & Kids are a company who pride themselves in putting children first and really wish to have the word spread about their passion for children and their apps that are created for them to have their brains engaged while having fun. Just watch the video below to learn more about this app and the people who stand behind it …
Fun, right? Here are some more details of Wee Kids app;
tens of brand new activities with many playing levels

Wee Kids ABC is a fun app that engages children in learning to read, so very similar to Wee Kids Math but this time around it is regarding reading skills. Both apps would suit your family well and I bet your kids would enjoy them!
Now, I wish you to go ahead and check out Wee Kids Math and Wee Kids ABC today in the iTunes app store so that you can see how your children love to learn in a fun, child friendly safe application environment!
