Transitioning to Fall with LuLaRoe

Welcome to the Fall Fashion For All Giveaway Hop hosted by Lindsey Blogs and Viva Veltoro. What better way to celebrate the upcoming Fall season than with a Fall Fashion Giveaway Hop!? A group of your favorite bloggers have come together to offer the best Fall Fashion Giveaways for the entire family – so be sure to hop around to them all below my giveaway and don't miss that AMAZING Grand Prize from the hosts.

I'm under the weather currently but I couldn't pass up this blog hop to tell you more about LuLaRoe!!! I've been a long time fan of LuLaRoe Stacey Hickey and her VIP group, so I was thrilled at the chance to work together on some pieces and start trying to get an idea of what I could pair together for Fall! While I first found LuLaRoe last October, I didn't wear it near as much and even for the first couple months I just wore my Irma with skinny jeans. I didn't really invest more time and energy in to full outfits until around December when I was using LuLaRoe for matertiny wear, so I am thrilled this Fall to pair stuff with scarves, boots, sweaters, and any accessory I can make look good! 

Storks: Find Your Flock September 23

This is a sponsored post on behalf of Review Wire Media for Warner Bros. Pictures  I received information to facilitate my review as well as a promotional item to thank me for my participation.

As a mother of five children, I was beyond thrilled when I saw a commercial for the first time promoting this movie. While our kids know where babies really come from, the graphics and over all idea of this movie caught my attention right away. Every time the commercials are on my girls stop, watch, laugh, and ask me to go see it when it comes out. Well that time is finally fast approaching because it arrives in movie theaters September 23!

$50 Giftcard for Baby Games

sponsored post 

I feel like as you have children, you get an understanding of the best baby toys out there. With your first child you're not always sure what to get, and then of course every friend has their favorite items, so it be a bit overwhelming. I seem to have found myself back in this spot with Maximus and the fact that he'll be five months old in just a few days. For years I kept toys that my daughter's had played with and just used them over and over again, but once we thought we weren't in the baby stage anymore, I chose to gift them to pregnant friends and family. 

With Max's surprise arrival, I've found myself on several occasions skimming retail sites and googling baby products trying to compare toys for small children and what is best for the developmental side for children. I stumbled upon Diapers.com recently and felt like I was in a whole new world! Not only do they offer diapers, but I didn't realize they offer so much more! While googling the best baby games and puzzles out there, I stumbled upon a parents.com article with suggestions of things to get and why, and I loved that it was stuff I hadn't thought of like bright colors or shapes. 

Office Depot & their National Backpacks Program

I received items to help with this review. All opinions are my own. 

For the past 16 years, the Office Depot Foundation has been giving children important tools they need to succeed in school – and in life - at the beginning of the new school year. 

This year is no exception.  In 2016, the Foundation is celebrating the 16th year of its award-winning National Backpack Program by donating 200,000 colorful new sackpacks to nonprofit organizations, schools and agencies across the United States and internationally.  

Let's Color Together! - Artist Creates Shareable Coloring Book for Parents and Kids

I was sent a sample to help with this review. All opinions are my own. 

We have five children so there is always coloring books and crayons floating around here. Sure my walls and furniture have been the subject for works of art, I was excited about this new coloring book I could share with my kids. 

LuLaRoe: The Sarah Cardigan

The days are getting shorter and the temperatures are starting to cool off, which can only mean one thing... It's Fall Y'all! Let's celebrate this popular season with a giveaway hop, hosted by Lindsey Blogs and Viva Veltoro. That's right, a great group of bloggers have come together to offer you giveaways, so be sure to hop around to them all in the linky below.

Some items were sent for review. All opinions are 100% my own

LuLaRoe is a fashion brand that specializes in women's and girls skirts, dresses and leggings. They also offer different kinds of shirts, kimonos, and more. They have nice solid prints, funky fun patterns, and sweet simple patterns to choose from. You can also get men's shirts and they offer neutral kids clothes that boys and wear!

With Fall just weeks away, layering clothing starts to play in to the fashion world. We all want to still look cute even when the weather is getting cold, so the Sarah is a great alternative with layering during the transition from Summer to Winter. When it comes to layers, just about anything you wear can mix and match creating a good outfit, so I'm going to show you some of the simple looks I've done so far. 

Stimulating Baby Toys for Sensory Play with Little Tikes

Whether it's your first child or your tenth child, each stage of development is so important for your growing baby and their mind. There's so many toys and activities out there for a baby and of course they all say they're great, but I try to keep our baby stuff to a minimum with a few key items from good quality companies. Check out Max's newest Sensory toys!

Silver Dolphin Books presents Super Sticker Activity Books

Items were sent in order to help with this review. All opinions are my own. 

 Silver Dolphin Books publishes activity, novelty, and educational nonfiction books for preschoolers to 12-year-olds. Highly interactive formats such as the Field Guides and Uncover series both educate and entertain older children. The lovable characters of the Maurice Pledger series and the boldly illustrated Snappy Sounds series appeal to both young children and parents alike.

Having five children means that we have wide varieties of books, toys, and activities in our home to accommodate all ages. I was excited to try these new activity books from Silver Dolphin because Macyn and Mya are right at the age range of loving stickers and getting the hang of special books like these.
