KidSwitch

Now that JD has his big boy room, we also wanted to give him a little more independence and the ability to come in an out of his room as he pleases! We recently purchased this KidSwitch glow in the dark light switch extender and I have to admit it has been one of the coolest little gadgets we have ever purchased. JD loves the fact that he can turn his light on and off all by himself, we no longer have to turn it on for him and it's also helping us teach him how to be responsible. This gadget is inexpensive, super easy to install and works with almost every type of switch plate!

KidSwitch allows kids to SAFELY reach and operate room lights! No more worry about falling off toys. Parents don't have to constantly turn lights on and off for the kids. Kids learn at an early age how to turn the lights OFF when they leave the room! Very good for the wallet and the environment!

Road Tripping: Yahoo Trip Planner

Our road trip is in a couple of days and I'm so excited! For the last few days I've been getting everything ready for our trip and mapping out the destinations, rest stops and restaurants we will be visiting. I wanted an easy way to keep track of everything and Yahoo Travel has been a great help in doing so. Yahoo provides a whole site dedicated to travel, you can research, plan and even book your trip on their site! For our road trip I used their free Trip Planner and mapped out our whole trip in less than 1 hour, including budget and kid friendly restaurants with great reviews and must see locations in every city. Yahoo even allows you to share your trip via Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, etc., send your itinerary to your phone or email it. The email feature definitely came in handy, I emailed our trip itinerary to my hubby and he was able to add and make changes to the trip also! Here is a little sneak peak of day 1 of our trip.
