Wednesday Wink 007 & $100 Giveaway

Turkey sandwich, peanut butter and jelly, chicken nuggets... Repeat! A variety of healthy, pick-up friendly foods for a toddler's lunch is such a struggle. As a working mom this is probably one of the biggest challenges. Not only do you have to worry about whether an item is healthy, but also if your toddler will be able to eat it without making a complete mess. Or how about keeping the milk cold and the pasta hot? I am better when I plan. So, this school year I decided to come up with a monthly meal schedule. Something a little more creative.
When I get our daily report card home, I will be able to check those meals that worked, and then 'X' those that were not kid-approved! I would love to hear some of your lunch ideas! And all that lunch planning makes me exhausted... so let's eat out tonight! I am giving away $100 GIFT CARD TO PAPPAS BROS. This card is good at all the Pappas Restaurants: Pappadeaux, Pappasitos Cantina, Pappas Seafood House, Pappas Bros. Steakhouse, Pappas Bar-B-Q, Yia Yia Mary's Greek Kitchen, and Pappas Burger!

Note: This was purchased by Kathryn's Camera and is NOT affiliated with Pappas.

Kathryn's Camera and Giveaway

You may have noticed things have changed. Leslie, the creative designer behind Lilly and Louise, has given us a facelift. Her team has managed to transform dozens of 'paper napkin' ideas into an incredible design that I am proud to call Kathryn's Camera. I have been in awe of Leslie's talent since living across the hall from her at the University of Texas. She is truly an inspiring artist and with each new project, I become more amazed at her accomplishments.

When my husband and I closed the door to our lives as individuals, got married and moved to Houston; we opened a window. A window allowing friends and family into our new world. A way to connect with the Robinson III Family and for us to connect with them. It has become an incredible way to share in the joy of our first son, and document precious memories to last a lifetime.

Growing up with an artist for a mother and a banker for a father, I consider myself "structurally creative." I am pretty sure there was always an art project in progress at our house and my father always had a new mind puzzle to solve. These days I struggle to find the balance between career, wife, and mommy; and the blog has provided me with a creative outlet. Kathryn's Camera is life through my lens.

I have a passion for photography, a love for party planning, and find happiness in the art of gift giving. Kathryn's Camera combines everyone and everything I love into a central location:
  • Livin - family life
  • Laughin - playdates and friendships
  • Lovin - the fairytale
  • Learnin - lessons learned as a mom and a woman
  • Lookin - always looking out for new products, projects, and activities
  • Liam - watch him grow
Wednesday Winks

These weekly winks are meant to highlight creativity or advice wherever I find it. From my favorite gift finds, to fun party theme ideas, to toddler tips, to weighing in on all your questions and beyond, I hope that you will find as much value behind the posts as I have excitement in creating them. And who knows, you might even win something. wink!

Thank you for embarking on this journey with me and for all of your support. As always, I appreciate all feedback and love reading all your comments.
Wednesday Winks, early edition.

It is no secret that I have a love for photography. I carry my DSLR with me wherever I go, freezing memories to take home. But let's be honest, a black camera strap doesn't really go with the outfit and mostly labels you a tourist. Function, meet Fashion.  Capturing Couture has created "one of the finest ‘ultra chic, totally couture accessory’ for anyone with a camera!" "Using only the finest materials, custom made trims and highly functional hardware," the creative masterminds behind these straps have given cameras a voice. Finally, a way to express your personality and personal photographic style through fashion. I have one for every season!

These straps come perfectly packaged making them the ultimate gift for anyone with a love for photography and style. To help us launch the new face of Kathryn's Camera, the ladies of Capturing Couture have graciously provided me with one of their top sellers and a personal favorite of mine to giveaway, the Harmony. Its vibrant colors and eclectic style are sure to turn heads!

The Perfect Mother's Day and Giveaway

The week before Mother's Day, I received the best Mother's Day present a mom could ask for. Liam, after not saying it for 8 months, found his "M" again and said Mamma! And hasn't stopped saying it ever since. My heart was completely full when he began repeating a distinct "Hi mamma" to which I would reply "Hi Liam" until we both ran out of breath. His latest use of mamma is while carrying his playskool cell phone. Daycare also pointed out that he walks around the room saying Hi mamma... and da - dee while speaking into their play phone. Hummm... Does this mean that I am on the phone too much?
