Dotmine Day Planner Review & Giveaway

In our little family, its up to me to keep track of everything from hubby’s work schedules to appointments to special occasions. Add into that mix hubby’s training schedule and my review deadlines and it starts to become quite a bit to keep up with. Unfortunately for me, pregnancy brain turned into mommy brain and I can barely keep up with what day it is let alone a month full of important dates to remember. Now that I have Abby’s appointments and schedules to keep up with on top of everything else, I knew it was time to get organized. Dotmine Day Planners are the perfect solution my problem.

I received the Family_Time.Mine Planner in the Ditsy Flowers pattern. This planner is so pretty and girly, it definitely suits me. But now time to put the planner to the test, can it help me get my disorganized mess of sticky notes organized? During my quiet time at night, I sat down with the planner and started filling in all sorts of important dates I need to remember. One of the first ones in the planner is the photo shoot this weekend for Abby’s one year pictures! Definitely an appointment I don’t want to forget. I really like how sturdy this planner is, it has a durable plastic cover and plastic coil, spiral binder. This planner is perfect for tucking into the back pocket of the diaper bag to take along to appointments, no longer will I have to try and remember when is a good time for Abby’s next appointment when I have my schedule right there with me.

The planner has a page for recording Doctors, Banks, Insurance Agents and several other important businesses that are always nice to have the name and phone number of. Being in the military and moving around alot means I often have new businesses to keep track of and having a place to jot them down is wonderful. This is especially helpful for hubby, he’s always asking me for important names and numbers and now all he has to do is look in my planner. A huge plus for me!

Another page I really like is the weekly page where I can list the events that week under the appropriate day. Plus it has perforated margins for “tear-out” lists, I LOVE this!

Thanks to my Dotmine Day Planner I am finally on my way to being organized! Now instead of having several little notes scattered around my desk and disappearing thanks to my little helper, all of my important dates and appointments are recorded in one nice, neat little place! This handy little planner is a must have for moms! Oh…and did I mention the awesome inspirational and humorous quotes listed each week? Well…this one sums everything up perfectly for me…
