Sorry I have been away a few days...

First my 21 month old daughter got sick, then my 4 1/2 year old son, and now me.  I pray that my husband doesn't get sick next but it looks like it may be unavoidable!

I will be starting my Holiday Toy Reviews tomorrow.  I am starting off with our family review of Pop on Pals by Spinmaster.

I have reviewed some awesome toys this year and can't wait to share them with you all.

I also have a few giveaways I have to post this week.

I am sorry again.  And will blog with you all tomorrow:)

Hot Holiday Toy Reviews & Facebook Giveaway Update...


2010 Long Island Mom x 2's Hot Holiday Toy Reviews will be starting tomorrow, November 5th!  I am so excited to bring you all reviews on some of the hottest toys this Holiday Season.  I have had the privilege to test these toys out with my children (and sometimes my husband;)) to make sure that they are fun, worth the money, durable, etc.  Even though a toy is "hot" doesn't mean it is a great toy to spend your money on.  So stay tuned tomorrow morning for my first review for the Holiday Season.

Also tomorrow on my Facebook Page, I will be having a Shutterfly Photobook Giveaway.  Just become a fan of my Facebook Page and sometime in the morning I will be posting a question and choosing a random correct answer from all that participate.

Exciting things happening at Long Island Mom x 2!  Thanks for coming along for the ride!

Some Halloween 2010 Pictures of my Batman & Batgirl...

We had such a fun day on Sunday, Halloween!  The kids were so excited to get in their costumes.  My 4 1/2 yr old was so cute!  He was more concerned about the kids coming to the house then his own candy.  We were down the block Trick or Treating and he saw kids at our house.  He said we had to go back home right away so they can have our candy.  So cute!!

Here are a few pictures from our Halloween.  I hope everyone had a great day.





And here is a picture with my Father in Law and the kids.  
He was so excited to dress as Robin to fit in with the kids! :)


And now onto Christmas.  Today I am having the kids portraits taken for our Holiday Cards at Pictureme in Walmart.  They are take awesome pictures of the kids and have some great prices and coupons.  Check them out this Holiday!  And get them done early so you avoid the rush.
