Hi, my name is Dawn, and I’m the mother of a Star Wars obsessed nine year old. I can’t imagine I’m the only one out there who listens (okay, half-listens) to the long and descriptive stories of all things Star Wars, right? While I truly believe my son has checked out every fiction and information…

Red Envelope’s new Baby Gifts — great quality at a great price!
Since becoming a mom it seems like I do a lot more of my shopping online. Not my day-to-day grocery shopping, but definitely my gift shopping. Even just the 10 minutes I spend debating over this baby blanket or that baby blanket in the store for my new nephew is torturous for my girls. They…
