I love organizing and planning my family’s daily activities. Having a tool to stay on track to remember those activities is key. This is where my brain comes in to play, it is my Erin Condren Life Planner. It is more than a typical calendar. It is where I plan, create, organize, and see the whole picture for the month, week, day and future calendar dates.
I have been using the ErinCondren.com Life Planner calendar for a few years now. I will be honest, the price tag can be a bit of a gasp ($50), but you can find online discounts on the web. For example, if you use my link HERE you get $10 off your order! Awesome!
I love my Life Planner because it is an American made product, the quality is fantastic, and it holds up very well. It is not your dainty pocket sized calendar. It is a heavy duty, solid, brain that holds your life… a life planner.
There are laminated tabs that separate the months for easy access for searching and planning your activities. They are sturdy, hard, and made with super cute and happy colors.
I like that the calendar is laid out with both the monthly and weekly format. I love to color coordinate my life for easy at a glance organization with our family activities. I am a new fan of washii tape to spice up my planner thanks to two of my girlfriends who introduced me to it. 
I like that the month at a glance page is full sized, has a fun quote for each month, and has a notes section on the side for those special activities, to-do’s, bills, reminders, or even Bible versus that you want to have handy.
If you need to organize and map out your day or week, there is a two page spread to do exactly that! You can view your week at a glance with the week starting on Monday. Each day is organized in three spaces: Morning, Day, Night. I found this kind of overwhelming at first… but learned that it worked best for me to use it how I pleased.
Some people separate their boxes into categories: work, personal, fitness. Some of my blogging friends use a square for their blogging business. As a busy mom, I typically stick to using the morning, day, night boxes to plan my day/week.
I love my Erin Condren life planner. It is my brain and I would feel lost without it. Yes, it is true. I am a paper/colorful pen type of person to stay organized. I do love my technology gadgets… but I need my planner to stay organized. Because I Love You and I want to you to fall in love with Erin Condren also, I am giving away TWO $50 gift e-cards!
You can use the gift card for any product on ErinCondren.com! You can use it to buy your family’s holiday cards, your personal life planner, personal cell phone case and more! There are so many fun products to choose from!

I would DEFINITELY get the Life Planner – it looks like SO.MUCH.FUN!!!! I have a question about the Life Planner though – I was looking at her website and if you buy that do you need to buy the $3 pack of additional stickers if you want blank stickers?

I would love to get a planner. I’m just starting out with blogging and and trying to keep my life, work, and fitness schedule in order is tough. I really need a planner in my life right now
I’m waiting for mine to arrive. I’ve had to go back to pen and paper after a head injury has left me with major short term memory problems. If I don’t write it down (and I mean everything) it doesn’t get done. I’ve tried some other planners but there’s not enough space or they’re too heavy to carry around. I’m hoping the the Erin Condren will be the answer to my prayers.
What a great idea. I’ve missed the past year without my planner
I would love an Erin Condren Life Planner to stay organized in graduate school this fall!!
I have been eyeing these planners- I have two friends that swear by them!
