Frecklebox Review

Annie — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 04:11:43 +0000

My little Tatertot was recently lucky enough to receive a personalized children’s book from Frecklebox. For those of you who have never heard of Frecklebox, they are a company who specializes in personalized gifts for kids. They have everything from storybooks to coloring books, folders, posters, puzzles right on down to wall art and lunch boxes. I had seen the great products that Frecklebox had to offer thanks to quite a few other blogs on the net so I was really excited when I learned we would be reviewing a product as well.

After looking over the different products, I decided to order the When I Grow Up Personalized Book. I thought Tatertot would be really excited to see all the different vroom vrooms and animals in the book. Little did I know just how personalized the book would be.

Another page personalized with our last name.

The attention to detail in personalizing this book for my son is amazing. Each page we read he gets to hear us talking about him and he gets soooo excited saying “It’s me Mommy! It’s me!!”

After seeing the excitement on my son’s face and hearing it in his voice every time we read the book, I am more than pleased with this Frecklebox product and I look forward to placing some orders with them for some personalized Christmas gifts.

If you haven’t checked out Frecklebox yet, I strongly recommend them!

First Day of School 2010
I am now the proud mom of a 5th and 6th grader.

And a 2 year old sporting his first buzz cut.

Another Summer has come and gone

I sit here now when I should be sleeping.
Tomorrow kicks of a new school year for Zman and the Drama Queen meaning I have to get up super early to see them off.
Part of me is glad that school is back in session yet part of me will miss the Summer.
This Summer was by far one of the best we’ve ever had.
We took advantage of it and spent a lot of time together as a family.
From what Zman and Drama Queen have said, they had an absolute blast.
I’m so happy we were able to do so many different things.
We survived another Summer filled with Soccer and Baseball.

They experienced new modes of transportation.

They experienced the sights that Door County has to offer for the first time with their favorite part being this moment

We took an afternoon trip to Oshkosh for some fun shopping at the outlet mall followed by an awesome lunch at an Irish Pub.
(Sadly, no pictures from that day — bad mommy!)

Zman ran a 5K.

There was our vacation to Rhinelander to visit family and check out some sites that Northern Wisconsin has to offer.

Someone played in the mud

Zman and Drama Queen made their First Communion

Zman made a new friend.

There are so many more things that happened throughout the Summer.
This just highlights our favorite parts.
It’s been a great Summer and I’m sad to see it go, but little do they know……..
Fall is going to be a blast too!
This mom still has a few tricks up her sleeve!
