Planner seeking planner

I'm a planner AND a planner person. And if you are too, you likely already have a planner (or two) for this year. It is already/only late February, so they are clearing them out. If you need a change, I can attest to two that are great.

Last year, I had one from Erin Condren, which of course I couldn't resist because it had my signature HDT quote on the cover... (now 40% off, when purchased with gift labels, using code "COMBO2013")

This year, I opted for a Lilly (Pulitzer)... In "Skip on it" and "You gotta regatta". They are now only $8-$12 (in three sizes), no code needed, and ship free through Th 2/26.   Enjoy!

Mom cards

I'm kind of a traditional kind of gal, so no matter how many laptops, tablets and phones we have, I love me some paper.  Now that I'm a mom (it still seems so wild to write this), I've thought about how my identity and life now revolves around being a "mom of...", which leads to the paper needs of such a new life.

I just ordered my first set of "mom cards" which identify me as being "Alistair and Marielle's mom", for the purposes of networking with other moms, setting up play dates, etc.

What do you think of mom cards? Cheesy? Helpful? Necessary? If you are a mom, do you have mom cards?   If you do, what did you include?   Just contact info?  Or a picture of your kids, allergies (which thankfully the twins' don't have), etc.?
