Mom Jeans (and my fear of said item)

You know what I'm talking about. Those jeans that I'm sure your mom wore and (admit it), you almost bought that time! Anyway, I found the perfect definition at urbandictionary.com

The following is for all you ladies who don't know what I'm talking about and the rest of us who like a good laugh...

MOM JEANS-Often seen on the 40+ crowd, mom jeans are too high, too tight, tapered leg jeans which manage to showcase any bodily flaw the wearer has. Possible outcomes: The butt will be compressed so it doesn't stick out, it will instead be pushed to the sides, making it look far wider than it actually is. The genital triangle will be emphasized and outlined (see camel toe or FUPA). The hips will look wider because of the butt compression and the tapering of the legs.

In addition, mom jeans are often light in color, which further emphasizes the outcomes mentioned above. They also come in the elastic-waist variety which further defines the genital triangle.
UPDATE!
I found this example. I hope you find it useful! If you have any to share, please send! It NEVER gets old for me.

Food Allergy Awareness

Get ready for my first foray into making videos. Please be kind!

I wanted to make an awareness video about an issue that is very close to my heart. My four year old son has a severe peanut allergy that makes every day a trial. People don't understand how dangerous it is and how easy it is for a person to get a life threatening reaction. I carry a shot of Epinephrine wherever we go.

Enough about that for now. Please check out my vid!

Having a seven year old little girl, it seems that I'm looking for a new birthday present at least once a month. I can't wait to share with you the greatest site. It's called Daisy Chain Couture and they specialize in jewelry for little girls. (Although they have recently expanded to more trendy stuff for moms- I'll get to that at a later time. 

I got the cutest bracelet for one of my daughter's friends. Daisy Chain Couture customized it to be in her birthstone color. She loved it! 

The pic is above.
