I love office supplies.  I could sit and read through an Office Max catalogue like it was the newest edition of Vogue.  I love to be organized!  Being organized gives me a calm peace that I thrive on.  Seeing something cluttered brings on stress.  I recently had the opportunity to review Mead’s wonderful new line of organizational tools designed for moms.

OrganizHER products have helped me to organize my finances along with keeping my to do list on track.  For review we received the Stay in Touch Address Book, Expense Tracker, Month to Month Family Wall Calendar, and the Family To-Do Magnetic Notepad.

I am in love with my new Expense Tracker.   I used to have a crummy old folder that I stuffed all of our bills into and hoped I didn’t lose one along the way.  My bills are now safely enclosed in one of the see-through pockets inside the Expense Tracker. The three ringed tracker includes monthly undated pockets that hold bills and receipts. The rings open to allow you to add any page into your binder.  There is even a place where you can go on Mead’s website to print off refill pages.  I highly recommend any mom to have one of these if she is the bill payer in the family.

Another of my favorite products is the Family To-Do Magnetic Notepad.  I love To-Do lists.  They help to keep me on track and to never miss an important thing that I need to have done.  I used this pad a lot in the past couple of weeks when planing BJ’s first birthday party.  The magnetic pad is labeled for things that I need to do, and things that I need others to do. Every family needs one of these pads.

We also received a very stylish wall calendar (that includes useful repositionable labels that you can easily move from month to month) and the address book that I desperately needed.  All of the Mead OrganizHER products come styled in a teal/orange paisley print and are extremely durable.  A great gift for any organized woman (or one who needs to be).

Buy It:

Mead OrganizHER products are now currently available at Target Stores and to celebrate Mead is offering one lucky AMI reader all of the same products  I received, along with a $25 Target Gift Card!

Win It:

One (1) lucky winner will recieve the Stay in Touch Address Book, Expense Tracker, Month to Month Family Wall Calendar, and the Family To-Do Magnetic Notepad along with a $25 Target Gift Card.

I have joined a gym this year hoping to maintain the healthy lifestyle that I enjoyed in my early twenties.  I wanted to regain mypre-baby weight and hope to look good in a swimsuit again this summer.  My husband and I have enjoyed working out together and it has brought us closer together. Every time I think I can’t go any further on my elliptical machine I think about how I will be here longer for my son if I stay healthy.  It is a great motivator.

GE is encouraging women everywhere to pledge to be healthy and live a more active lifestyle.  Women can pledge how they will live a healthier life by visiting GE healthymagination website.  The website includes exercises and healthy food recipes that will help you become healthier and active.  There are even kid-friendly vegetable recipes that will help your picky eater love his veggies.

Welcome to A Mom’s Impression Monkey Mayhem Birthday Bash.  We are taking time to celebrate BJ’s first birthday with some wonderful birthday products that will enhance any child’s birthday party.  Visit us all week for great products for a very special time in your child’s life!

I am very excited to feature my favorite stationary company with you! Amy Adele is a children’s stationary store that creates adorable stationary using hand drawn art by Amy Adele herself.  Amy created the company after designing her own birthday and Christmas cards, her family encouraged her to open for business and AmyAdele.com was launched in November of 2005.  The site features stationary, invitations, calling cards, labels and stickers and clothing.

I was first introduced to Amy Adelle by my MIL who purchased some adorable cards and a onsie for BJ before he was born.  The cards featured a hand drawn cute monkey swinging from vines.  We decorated BJ’s nursery with monkeys and the theme has stuck all year and now it is the theme for his first birthday.  For his invitations I knew I wanted Amy Adelle’s designs on them.  I was very excited when I found that she now has photo invitations and announcements in many different designs including the monkey that we were first introduced to over a year ago.  We deiced that we had to have those invitations for BJ’s party.  It was super easy to upload the photo and customize the invitations for the party.  Amy Adelle allows you to choose a text font and text color that will coordinate with your theme.

Here is BJ’s 1st birthday invitation:

BJ also received these cute cards from his Grammy for Easter:

Who doesn’t need a night out?  I have been feeling the stress lately and a night out with my hubby and a glass of wine sounds amazing.  When I think about going out to a restaurant I immediately think about Italian food, yummy!  Carrabba’s Italian Grill offers many different italian dishes at their restaurant ranging from pasta to pizza to family classics.  Here is a little bit about Carrabba’s culinary philosophy:

We make everything by hand in each of our restaurants every day from our delicious soups and flavorful sauces to our salad dressings and desserts. Even the roasted cinnamon rum pecans that top our John Cole dessert are made from scratch. We are proud of the time and effort that goes into preparing each of our dishes at Carrabba’s and look forward to serving you.

It took months and months of searching to find the perfect take home from the hospital outfit for BJ (if you think I am exaggerating ask my husband).  I am a little obsessive (if you couldn’t tell) about some things and the take home outfit was one of those things.  I wanted the outfit to be cute, elegant, and classic all the same time.  I ended up finding what I thought was the perfect outfit to bring him home in.  At the hospital we were getting ready to be discharged and we put the outfit on BJ.  In spite of the “newborn” tag, BJ’s outfit was entirely too large.  He looked so funny swimming around in this outfit.  I was crushed.  I wanted this moment to be perfect.  I had this moment pictured in my perfectionist head of mine since  found out I was pregnant and it was all wrong due to a very large shirt and pair of pants. Being that I “just knew” this moment was going to be perfect, I failed to bring a secondary outfit for BJ so he wore his outfit home anyway (3 months later he fit perfectly into it).  Had I known about Zutano’s Itzy Bitzy line of children’s clothing my moment might have gone a little bit more perfect.

Itzy Bitzy is Zutano’s premier line of newborn and preemie clothing. This adorable and very special collection has been meticulously designed to fit brand new babies in their first days of life. With two available sizes that fit both 4-8 pounds and 9-13 pounds, Itzy Bitzy is very versatile and flexible. (Taken from Zutano’s website)

For my readers who are not familiar with Zutano children’s clothing they are a children’s clothing boutique created by an artist in New York after giving birth to her daughter.  She wanted to create stylish prints for her daughter to wear.  Zutano has expanded their Baby and Toddler line to introduce a product line just for newborns and preemies, Itzy Bitzy.  These clothes are designed especially to fit newborns and preemies.  They offer two sizes, newborn and 0-3 months.  All you need to do is find the product you want, click on it and all of the print families are shown that you can pick from. They offer onesies, hats, blankets, gown, footies and much more in every print family. I love the new Lion print for boys and the Owl print for little girls, adorable!

We received a long-sleeved shirt and pants from Zutano in the “Mr. Grizz” print for BJ to review.  (This print is a part of Zutano’s Baby Collection).  We love the “Mr. Grizz” print with little bears all over it.  The pants are a tan fleece material that is very warm and perfect for this time of year.  Zutano’s clothes are well made and can withstand repeated washes (necessary for a drooling baby).  I love how BJ looks when he wears his Zutano clothes.

Buy It:

You can purchase Zutano’s Itzy Bitzy clothing on their website here.

Win It:

One lucky reader will win a $50 gift card to Zutano’s Itzy Bitzy online shop. (If you have won a gift card from Zutano within the past 6 months you are not eligible.).
