Just got back from a 4-year-old version of The Nutcracker. Crazy cute.

Mommy, can you draw a princess and I’ll color it in? Well, actually, no. I can draw you a stick figure with a crown, would that help? Here you go…
Okay obviously that is not going to work! Thecoloringspot.com has cool princess printables your daughter will want to color in.
If unlike me, you can draw, please submit your non-trademark infringing color-me princess to princesslvspink@gmail.com. I’d love to feature some!

Good idea: Visit affiliate friends CrayolaStore.com before that long trip to the in-laws. (Free shipping on all orders over $75). Search for “Princess” to see their Color Explosion, Color Wonder, and Recoloritz Princess-options.
Bad idea: Leave non-crayola, grown-up markers in your little princess’ room the night that Daddy’s in charge.
You may come home to find her asleep, covered in self-drawn “Princess Tattoos” (including a hot-pink princess on her cheek).

Heard about KidsKonserve from Ecostiletto, who writes: 80 percent of the 25 billion single-serving water bottles used each year end up in a landfill.
I’ve been looking for a non-plastic water bottle for our Little Princess but couldn’t find one under $25 (since let’s face it this will get lost and you should buy two).
This one has pink butterflies and is just the right size.
Butterfly 16oz stainless steel bottle $13.00.
