Where does the time go?
Can you believe we are almost into August? This summer is just flying by, and we have been so busy with vacations and pool days, and soaking up some summer fun, that it’s crazy to think we will soon be back to school shopping. This is the reason why some of you may have noticed [...]
Jaime’s Jem: What’s for Dinner?
I don’t know about you, but I love, love love summer grilling! I like it all year round (the George Forman Grill works well indoors), but especially in the summer, paired with a little cocktail, out on the patio – Yum-o! I have found with summer in full bloom now, spending a lot of time [...]
Jaime’s Jem: PBS Kids Sprout
Summer is officially upon us, however if you live in the Northeast like I do, it certainly does not feel like it! When you think summer, it’s only natural to think of being outdoors, running, playing, swimming, loading up on sunscreen, right? It’s been raining here for weeks, and the sun has made but only [...]
Jaime’s Jem: Summer Movies
With summer approaching and school out, many parents look for ways to entertain their children during the summer months. I know I do! I already have the summer calendar going, adding events and activities daily, so I a) have something special and fun to look forward to with my boys, b) have something to threaten [...]
Jaime’s Jem: Scrunchy’s Play Center
How much patience is required to be a parent? Seriously, I would say more than one could put into words on any given day. A while back I had blogged about shopping with kids, and different options for making it a painless experience. Sometimes I can follow my own advice, but other times I need [...]

Jaime’s Jems: The Points System
Hey, did you miss me? I took a week off from my Jems to take a vacation with my family - road trip to Disney – more on this journey to come. It was this specific trip that prompted me to blog about this next Jem. Driving such a long distance with two kids under 5, we [...]
Jaime’s Jem’s: Dunkin’ Donuts
What in the world did I ever do before I discovered coffee? I can’t really remember when I started drinking it, but I think it was when I lived down the shore in college and worked in a coffee house. Then I drank it for fun, and because coffee was the latest fad. Now, I [...]
Jaime’s Jems: CNET
I love photos! I really think digital photography is one of the greatest inventions – EVER! Especially since having children, I take a ton of pictures, often daily, definitely weekly. I have actually been referred to as the paparzzi on several occasions, and am quite proud of it! There are some people who never leave home [...]
Jaime’s Jems: The Things I Want
Everyone has a wish list, right? Many days I am wishing for more sleep, and a clean house for more than 4 minutes, but there are certainly some tangible things on my list as well. This week’s “Jem” allows you to do just that ~ WISH! And share it with everyone!
The Things I Want is the [...]
