Are you looking for a new way to reward your children in allowance? How about setting up and chore and Allowance program for them?

You can do this with PayJr and teach your children how to manage money. You can pay your children electronically to a reloadable Target gift card which is great since they will be able to spend their hard worked money in the store.

You as the parent get to choose what chores you want assigned and how much each chore will be worth. Your kids will be picking up new chores all the time so they can get their rewards.

Try it out in your family today!

I was blog hopping this afternoon and came across a blog that had this in a post. I laughed so much at it because it’s cute that a child would even think of doing this. Without further ado, watch the video yourself. You’ll know what I’m talking about.

November 1st, 2007Bed wetting = no problem

So many children have problems wetting the bed. There’s no denying that. I’ve seen it happen so many times when I was out on field placement at different daycares around the city.

Thankfully there are many companies out there who recognize the problem and provided a solution. They came up with protective underwear which I think is perfect for any child. They don’t have to feel so embarrassed for bed wetting and can wear something that doesn’t feel so much as a diaper.

Now if only every problem in this world were solved, it would be one great place to live. lol

There are specialists who deal in baby needs. Once baby shopping was limited to clothes, food, occasionally baby monitors and stuff. Now we have a baby travel system. The shopping for the baby begins from the moment books for popular baby names begins.

October 30th, 2007Types of insurance

Insurance companies never seize to amaze me. They have insurance coverage for almost anything!! They sometimes even have children insurance. I’m not sure what that could cover besides medical bills, but it seems logic because children get hurt a lot while they explore.

So let’s name some types of insurance. These types come off the top of my head.

  • car
  • home
  • pet
  • children

Um…ya that’s all that I can think of. What are some of the insurance coverages you heard of?

October 16th, 2007Shopping in 20 minutes!

This morning I went shopping for a whole twenty minutes before my class started at 11am. My sister had to get the baby car seat since they don’t allow you to take the infant out of the hospital unless you have one…which of course is understandable because the safety of the infant comes first.

Then as I’m carrying the huge box for her (we didn’t get a cart), I noticed some huge stuffed animals and squealed like a kid. I went over to the huge bin and put down the box. Of course I started going through it all since they had giraffes, leopards, lions, elephants, monkeys, and so many other stuffed toys. I ended up buying a monkey!!

LOL! I’ll take a picture of it and post about it later. It’s sooo friggin cute!!

October 15th, 2007The day is coming up soon!!

Time is flying by really quickly. Just next month I will finally become an aunt! I can’t wait!!

My sister is still covered under my dad’s medical insurance. They cover a semi-private room in the hospital. For only $20 more, she can up that room to a private room which is exactly what she wants to do. I would too. Come on…it’s only $20 more. LMAO!!

It’ll be nice to have a private room for family and friends to gather around. Plus her room will have a couch, tv mount, bathroom, and other cool things that she gets included.

I seriously can’t wait!! This will be the first grandchild for my parents and my first nephew!! I’m so excited!! November 21st is my sister’s due date. I can’t wait for the coming weeks.

October 8th, 2007My pregnant sister

I am so proud of my younger sister. She is currently in her 8th month of pregnancy. I can’t believe how fast time has flown by. I can just remember when I was keeping it a secret since I was one of the first people to know. It was a shock but I always told her I’d be happy to be an aunt. Heck, it’s my first nephew since she’s having a boy!! I can’t wait!! Here is a photo of her in her 8th month.

You look beautiful Tanya!!! xoxo
