A few weeks back, I was sent a copy of the NNAT®2 Practice Workbook from The Test Tutor. The book is designed to help children prepare for the NNAT®2, a test that looks at the general intellectual ability of children. The book covers grades K (age 5) through 12, has 85 full-color exercises & answer key, test & scoring details, and test taking strategies. When I first received the book I had no idea what the NNAT®2 even was. After looking it up, I still don’t really know. From what I understand, it’s basically a test to see if your child is gifted and/or talented. It gives teachers an idea of how children will perform during their school years. It tests pattern completion, reason by analogy, serial reasoning & spatial visualization. Apparently, many schools now have students take this test at some point in their early years. Basically, the questions in the workbook are predominantly shape and pattern related…sort of like the stuff they do on Team Umizoomi. Your ...
Cardio 630 Review & Giveaway [ENDED]
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Mom Blog Society Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers. A week ago, I was sent a Cardio 630 Heart Rate Monitor from SportLine. SportLine carries a wide range of fitness gear, including hydration items, pedometers & accessories. The Cardio 630 has four main features: Heart Rate/Exercise, Time/Date, Chronograph & Alarm. It’s designed to be super easy to setup and use. The first thing I noticed about the Cardio 630 is that it uses a chest strap to transmit your heart rate. I’ve only ever used the ones that are just the watch, and, frankly, the straps don’t look to be all that comfortable. I was expecting there to be rubbing and chafing. However, it ended up being quite nice. It’s very lightweight and after the first few minutes you have it on, you don’t really notice it anymore. The watch, as expected, was very easy to ...

The lowdown on my knee
It has been a very, very long week. On Monday, I went to see the specialist about my knee. Hannah got car sick on the way there and ended up throwing up just as we were about to pull into the parking lot. We had to hurry and get her all cleaned up and the seat clean before we were late for the appointment. Once we got in and I filled out paperwork, Hannah was fussy so Jason took her out in the hall while I was called back for the appointment. When the assistant/RN guy came in and had me take the brace off, his eyes widened and he asked me how I was even able to walk on it. Not a good sign. Apparently, the MRI place didn't even look at the MRI at all, because the both the RN guy and the doctor said that there was no way that they didn't not see the amount of damage to my knee. Somehow or another, the knee cap itself is going way to the right when I'm walking and it's completely torn out all of the cartilage. He said that it was pretty bad and being that the MRI was taken three ...
