Children's Place pool party!!!

I recently went on a shopping spree for my two kids during The Children's Place Pool Party event! I loved the WIDE variety I had to choose from. The girls' dresses ranged from bright neon colors to cool pastels.

My daughter chose a hot pink dress to match the one mommy had on and insisted on wearing it out of the store along with her sparkly matching glasses. I couldn't resist the ULTRA stylish fedora hat for my little guy. There was also a wide selection of bathing suits, accessories and sandals/slippers ALL on sale.

I love the fact that all of their clothes were reasonably priced and of EXCEPTIONAL quality. My final tally ended up being 3 summer dresses, 4 girls' shirts, 1 skirt, 2 sunglasses and 2 hats ALL for...drumroll...$101!!! So if you're looking to get more bang for your buck while stocking up on summer gear for your little ones head down to The Children's Place during their Summer Sale Pool Party event!!!

Thank you Children's Place for making my kids look WAY more stylish than their mom this summer!

Knott's Mother's Day Champagne Brunch!

Today I started my pre-Mother's day festivities with a brunch at Mrs. Knott's Chicken Dinner Restaurant. They had so many delicious options I didn't know where to begin. There's a carving station with turkey and roast beef, shrimp cocktail and you're everyday breakfast favorites like eggs, waffles and blintzes. If you feel like omlettes they'll whip one up right in front of you with all the fixin's. My favorite HAD to be their old-fashioned apple stuffing, it's like Thanksgiving in one bite. And if you've never had Mrs. Knott's famous fried chicken then you've never really "had" fried chicken.

Of course no brunch is complete without mimosas. I highly recommend their boysenberry flavored mimosa which was DEELISH! If you're looking to top off you're meal with something sweet they'll have at least 20 desserts to chose from. My favorites were the fruit tarts and decadent chocolate brownies. The best part of our meal was a special meet and greet from the ever so huggable Snoopy himself!!!

Treat a special mom in your life to a memorable Mother's Day Champagne Brunch at Mrs. Knott's Chicken Dinner Restaurant and mention "mom blogger event" to receive 10% off. Call (714) 220-5055 for reservations.

Thank you Knott's for making this mother feel special!

Wordless Wednesday

Frametastic Fridays!!!

I just wanted to share these pictures of the USCIS ad I did last year. I am very proud to be part of this on-going campaign due to the fact that I AM an immigrant and also because I was 3 months pregnant when I shot these.

Apparently they appear all over the subway stations in NYC. I've had numerous people post pictures on my facebook page letting me know that I keep them company every morning while they wait for the L train.


Here in Los Angeles they've been spotted in bus stops, buses, public libraries and on billboards off the freeway.


I am INDEED a proud American.
