School is about to start. I can’t believe it either, I swear some gremlins came into my office, ripped off two months in the calendar and changed the dates in our computers. Nonetheless, school is about to start and if your little people are active and into sports they will need some type of sports stationary this season.

Brave is not your typical ‘princess’ animated movie
Go see a Disney Pixar movie? Sure thing, I don’t even need to read the plot description, it’s bound to be somewhat along the lines of the others.

When More Mojo came along we were offered the chance from Graco to review the Pack ‘n Play Playard with Reversible Napper & Changer. Yeah, the official name of it is a mouthful, but it will serve More Mojo until he’s 3 years old and most importantly, it’s incredibly easy to fold. Continue reading Giveaway: A Graco Pack ‘n Play
