Moms Rock the Economy

Darcy Novo Albrecht is a Mom that Rocks

2009-10-27T15:47:00.000-07:00

Darcy Novo Albrecht is the creator and owner of Chicks-n-Chickens: Lullaby Exercises, a series of workouts for moms of babies. Learn how to rock your baby to sleep while getting in a good workout. A novel idea! Darcy has been friends of Moms Rock since it's inception. In fact, she has been a favorite of Bookieboo, THE social site for moms into fitness, weight loss, and healthy living.

Chicks-n-chickens and Lullaby Exercises originated from Darcy’s desire to get back in shape after the birth of Reed, her first chicken. “With no time for the gym and a restless baby at hand, I started dancing around the house to get him to sleep...and the idea for Lullaby Exercises was hatched,” says Darcy.

Lullaby Exercises has been recommended by Pregnancy Magazine,Daily Candy, Cool Mom Picks, and Bookieboo. Here is an appearance she made on the View in San Franciso:

Discount: Chicks-n-Chickens is having a special on their Moby and DVD/CD combo pack. Enter: PREGORG20 for 20% off the combo or just the DVD.

Boogie Wipes Review & Giveaway

2009-09-10T16:00:00.000-07:00

Hard crusty boogers...you know the ones that stick to the kids nose and don't come off easy. That's what my little guys are plagued with...boogers! The seven month old baby always has a cold from the buggaboos that the three year old brings home. I can breastfeed until the cows come home, but he still has frequent viruses. Ahhh, the second one always gets the short end of the stick.

My mom was here the other day and looked into a box that was sitting on my kitchen table. (Yes, I've been a little unorganized lately.) It had a bunch of Boogie Wipes in it sent to me for a review. I've been so busy, that I almost forgot about it, so I decided that if I stuck it in an inconvenient place, the kitchen table, I'd more likely get the review done. Well, that was the idea until a couple of weeks went by. It's always about good intentions, right?

Well, my mom read the ingredients and said to me, "hey this is the same stuff we used to use in the neonatal intensive care to get the boogers off the babies!" FYI, my mother is a retired nurse and worked with children for many years. Yep, the ingredients in the Boogie Wipes was the same stuff they used in the hospital. I busted the stuff out of the box and tried it out....taa daa! Boogies gone! Okay, so my poor little kids have been suffering for weeks and here I had a product that would help and was too busy to take it out of the box. Shame on me!

So I will say that I'm a fan of Boogie Wipes. No wonder you can now purchase them in Toys R Us and Babies R Us, they have a great product. I'm proud of those moms.

(And I would just like to add that I wrote this post way before Boogie Wipes sponsored the site...ask Kelly!!...that's how backed up I am...don't tell Boogie Wipes!!! Shhhhhh!!) And guess what? Not only does Boogie Wipes sponsor Moms Rock the Economy, they also want to do a giveaway....take it away Kelly!

Kelly-Queen of Details-Please share with the readers how they can enter this awesome giveaway.

Well Leah... Boogie Wipes is giving one lucky Mom that Rocks a Back to School Gift Basket that includes Stickers, Coloring Sheets, Buttons, Coupons, 3, 30-Count Packs of Boogie Wipes and a Boogie Kid T-shirt!

Amazing Opportunity from Hybrid Mom Magazine!

2009-09-03T14:48:00.000-07:00

your big sister's guide to surviving college by christie glascoe crowder
(Wyatt-MacKenzie Publishing, Inc. - 2007) is an insightful map to help girls navigate the journey through life as a college student, told in a "big sister to little sister" manner. I remember what it was like having to learn the ‘hard way’ about life on campus and life in general. For many girls, going away to college is literally a crash course on becoming a woman and being completely responsible for yourself. My goal is to ‘soften the blow’ a bit and help young ladies learn life’s lessons armed with common sense and a little big sister wisdom.

motherhood is the new mba: using your parenting skills to be a better boss by shari storm
When it comes to being a good leader, we’ve read the sports analogies, we’ve read the war analogies. But how about hitting a little closer to home? As a mother, the following rules and tactics probably sound familiar to you:

Never Underestimate the Power of Kiss-It-Make-It-Better
Hold the Line on Tantrums
Remember the Magic Word
Count to Three Before Giving a Time-Out

These are good, solid rules for how to raise children. But can these same rules make you a better boss? Absolutely.
