This week I got to do something I have wanted to do for years. I was invited to attend the press events on behalf of She Buys Cars for the North American International Auto Show.

This #NoBabyUnhuggedCB sponsored post has been compensated by #CollectiveBias, Inc. and its advertiser. As always, my parenting and donation opinions are my own.

Are you ready to dive right in? Because I really don’t recall a time (growing up), that I didn’t feel comfortable in the water. And as a lifeguard in college, I have a lot of experience to draw on.

This #GivingTuesday post has been compensated in the form of gift card, product, and/or service received at a reduced price or gratis. As always, my pajama lovin’ opinions are my own.

I love pajamas. Like pink-puffy-heart love pajamas. Like, work-from-home job perk…flannels for every occasion…if there is one passion I invoke in my children…L-O-V-E pajamas.

I also love charity. And giving back. So I’m really happy to share this awesomeness from Carter’s for Giving Tuesday 2016. That for every pair of pj’s sold today (up to 100k), Carter’s will donate one pair to charity.

Help the Pajama Program give sweet dreams to children in need.#givingtuesday #carterssweetdreams #pajamas #donate https://t.co/rBDWl42coO pic.twitter.com/OWdwHuNrH8
