Halloween is just around the corner! It's time to get creative. Carving the jack-o'-lantern is one of my favorite Halloween traditions.

Creating an Amazon Baby Registry is as Easy as 1-2-3!

Considering babies are so petite, they sure come with a shocking amount of paraphernalia. Just one baby requires almost more than you can carry, and when you're carrying twins, that amount basically doubles.
