You may have noticed in stores that P&G has re-entered the Adult Incontinence category with the Always brand and is now offering Always Discreet.

Berkeley Plus Backpack Review {Giveaway}
This post is Sponsored by Case Logic but my opinions are 100% my own! Back to school is here and today I want to talk about backpacks. Specifically the Berkeley Plus Backpack because I love it!

The amount of homework my girls gets each day is crazy and they are only in the 2nd and 4th grade! So a big back pack is a necessity. When my oldest went to Kindergarten the teacher sent a note home saying they needed a backpack, and a real one, not a little cutesy one. They didn't so much as have homework all the time in Kindergarten, but they took a lot of stuff home so they...
