Stay Connected This Mother's Day with Walmart Family Mobile

Since becoming a mother I have realized how lucky I am to live just a few minutes away from my mom. She helps me out a lot with the kids, especially now that my days seem be much more busier and hectic as my business grows.  The kids love going over the their grandma's house to hang out and play with their older cousin. There are some days I drop by alone just to have lunch and a small chat with my mom.

Twisty Bugz Teether from Nuby


The Twisty Bugz teether features colorful characters, multiple textured surfaces, and fun sounds that will delight and amuse your baby for hours. Each character is sized perfectly for small hands and can be twisted in a full circle. Additionally the entire teether can be twisted along its center. Twist it and it clicks! Shake it and it rattles!

Teething nubs massage and stimulate baby's gums and the multiple teething surfaces aid in the eruption and strengthening of new teeth. The nontoxic pûrICE Gel stays colder longer than water filled soothers.

2014 La Familia De Hoy

{This is a compensated campaign in collaboration with Johnson & Johnson and Latina Bloggers Connect}

In December, Johnson & Johnson Family of Consumer Companies revealed the Jiménez family as LA FAMILIA DE HOY. Juan, Biviana and their three children: Elisa,Diego and Benicio are a modern, active, multicultural family – representative of all the values that Hispanics relate to and care about.


One of the reason's the Jimenez Family was selected as La Familia De Hoy is because they all share a special bond. They are constantly looking out for each other, whether is babysitting each other’s children, attending family gatherings on special occasions, getting together for weekend BBQ’s or going to Juan’s boys’ soccer games. Their commitment in life is to pass on their traditional values and Hispanic roots in the younger generation. This sounds just like my family. We've always been there for each through our ups and downs. As I've grown older I've realized how lucky I am to have such a supportive family both near and far, they're either a short drive down the street or a phone call away in California.

Mrs. Fields Nibblers

Motherhood comes in many shared moments of sweetness with those we love. I remember the first time I had a Mrs. Fields cookie, My mother brought home a box of chocolate cookies and shared one with me. I remember falling in love with the soft, chewy and sweet taste of the cookie. Since then  I've loved chocolate chip cookies from Mrs. Fields and think of my mother whenever I see a box.

Mrs. Fields cookies has a long history of sharing their homemade goodness. Soft-baked and snack size, Mrs. Fields Nibblers have been a mommy staple since the early 1980s. And now for the first time, you can find delicious flavors like Milk Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter, and Double Chocolate Fudge in a grocery store near you.

The Beauty of Nature

{This is a sponsored post for Aveeno and Latina Bloggers Connect }
 

AVEENO is proud to debut “The Beauty of Nature,” a video narrative featuring Brand Ambassador Jennifer Aniston, which celebrates the abundance of ingredients found in nature with the vast potential to help enhance our natural beauty.

Hispanic women have always trusted the advice they’ve received from their mothers and grandmothers, especially as it relates to beauty. Many of their tips and beauty secrets usually included the use of ingredients found in nature. I feel aw if my mother and grandmother were correct when they would suggest to stick to the "Basics" when it came to beauty and taking care of my skin. Seems as though our grandmothers and mothers generations don't understand why the younger generations need so many products and procedure's to get younger looking skin when all they had and need were ingredients that are found in nature.
