Summer Suit-Up!

The twins, Bacon and I were at the mall today and I was buying the boys bathing suits and rash guards because we plan on hitting up the local water park this weekend.  The boys were super excited, but I don’t think they fully understand what a water park is.  They picked out the cutest suits- I can’t wait to see them splash around in them.  Then, on the way out of the mall, we had to walk through the food court where there’s a water fountain- and Ryan was about ready to strip to put his new ‘baby suit’ on.  I guess they thought the fountain was the water park!

Both of the twins chose the same suit and rash guard, despite there being about half a dozen fun choices.  I was surprised with the one they picked, but I like it, and it will be cute on them.  I thought they might pick the ones with surfboards, sharks, or even skulls instead of crabs.  And then I found a whale set for Bacon that was just so adorable that I had to buy it- so now I’ll be returning the set I bought him the other day!

I bought the girls suits the other day, and wow, Lili looks way too old.  I need to put her in a big shapeless sack or something!  I do need to find them coverups, I didn’t have much luck at the mall today.  I even bought myself a bathing suit, because the only one I could seem to find that fits is a maternity one.

I think we’re ready for summer now!

Arby’s King’s Hawaiian Getaway Sweepstakes!

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Arby’s for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

One of our favorite fast food places is Arby's. I love the variety of foods they offer, and that it's different than the standard burger and fries. My personal favorite are the loaded potato wedges- they are SO tasty. I also love the Market Fresh sandwiches and wraps for when I don't feel like roast beef.

They are always adding new things to the menu- and right now they have two new King's Hawaiian sandwiches! This new twist to the classic Roast Beef sandwich is only going to be around for a limited time, so be sure to try one soon! According to Arby's, one bite you'll experience Rost-Beef-atopia! Roast Beef Paradise!

The Arby’s KING’S HAWAIIAN roast beef sandwich comes with an extra helping of freshly sliced roast beef piled high on a soft ans slightly sweet King's Hawaiian bun. And the Arby's King's Hawaiian Roast Beef & Swiss sandwich has the same extra helping of roast beef and King's Hawaiian bun, but is topped with Swiss cheese, crunchy pickles and cream Dijon spread.

But that's not all- to celebrate this awesome pairing of Arby's and King's Hawaiian, Arby's is hosting a Hawaiian Getaway sweepstakes! Someone is going to get the chance to surf in paradise- the grand prize winner will receive a round trip for two with four nights stay in Honolulu, and a premium group lesson at Hawaiian Fire, one of the island's premier surf schools. For details and to enter Arby’s Hawaiian Getaway Sweepstakes, go to www.ArbysKingsHawaiian.com from April 29- May 26.

Moms need other moms!

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for JOHNSON’s Baby. I received a promotional item as a thank you for participating. Being a mom is scary, especially with your first baby.  I remember being released from the hospital 24 hours after giving birth to Ethan, and I just couldn’t believe that [...]
