The kids and I recently had the chance to play with a Google Home for a few weeks, thanks to Verizon. We found out it was a really fun and useful gadget to have around the house. This WiFi speaker device is powered by Google Home Assistant, and can do a wide variety of tasks from playing music (Google Play, Pandora, Spotify, etc.) to controlling your smart home devices (Chromecast, Nest and Philips Hue) and accessing anything you want to ask ...

GRACO TurboBooster LX Youth Booster Featuring New TrueShield Technology
Our friends at Graco recently sent us the Graco TurboBooster LX Youth Booster featuring new TrueShield Technology. As I was taking photos, I realized that this is the very first car seat my almost 6-year-old son has gotten that was not a hand-me-down from his big brother. He is the youngest of four boys, so he is thrilled to get something brand new! We love Graco products, and this is a very nice booster for him. My son was really excited ...

I'm sharing Luvsome in my life as part of a Luvsome sponsored series for Socialstars™. All opinions expressed are my own.

My Family Loves To Start the Day with Yoplait Yogurt #CalciYUM
During the school year, my family eats breakfast in two shifts. The early birds take shift one, and they are out the door for work and middle school before it's even time to wake up the younger kids. Weekday breakfasts are usually simple, and even better if they can be "grab-and-go" for the mornings we are running late. I'm talking about my teenager when I say "we" are running late. He sleeps in til the very last possible minute, so he almost ...
e-cloth Chemical-Free Home Cleaning (Baby Care Starter Set)
Several years ago, I bought an e-cloth Home Cleaning Set. I use these cloths regularly to clean my house. After literally hundreds of laundry washes, I am STILL happily using those exact same cloths. I would buy another set, but I really don't need it yet. I recently received a Baby Care by e-cloth Home Starter Set free for my review. This 3-piece set includes a Bathroom cloth, General Purpose cloth and a Glass & Polishing cloth. I was ...
