NoseFrida the Snotsucker–It’s Disgustingly Awesome! Review & Giveaway

Posted on May 15, 2013
NoseFrida the Snotsucker Review

We’ve had a bit of a rough ride with Willow during her first year so far.  She had RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) as well as a few colds here and there.  This has equaled out to lots and lots of snot.  Trying to feed my snotty stuffy baby was not the easiest thing – especially since I breastfeed and her little face would be up against the breast.  Nursing sessions would take forever since she had to keep unlatching to breath. I needed to get this snot out.  With Alleigh and Kaelyn I always used the blue bulb syringe that … …..

At first it might have seemed a little weird that I was jealous of my little ones swaddling blankets, crib sheets, sleeping bags and my toddlers dream blankets.  But once you realize that all of these items are from aden+anais it doesn’t seem weird at all – ok, it doesn’t seem weird at all if you have ever touched one of these items.  They are so unbelieveably soft and comfy and I just wanted one for myself.  In fact every single time I have shared an aden+anais product with my readers somewhere in my review I have said that I … …..

I Flew GateKeeper {Cedar Point – Sandusky, Ohio}

IMG_1669_thumb.jpg

I am a thrill seeker.  Now you won’t find me sky diving or bungee jumping, but roller coasters – heck yes!  I absolutely love roller coasters and am so lucky to have the roller coaster capital of the world, Cedar Point, just a little over an hour away in Sandusky, Ohio.  Cedar Point is the home of sixteen roller coasters one of which is brand new this year. The last time Dustin and I visited the park during HalloWeekends we spent some time oooh-ing and ahhh-ing over the details of this new coaster on the signs displayed on the fence … …..

Walker Meets High Chair with the Joovy Spoon

Posted on May 7, 2013
Joovy Spoon Review

We live in a little bungalow.  I love our cozy little house and honestly don’t have a desire for anything bigger, but this also means that it’s important for items to serve multiple functions.  For example our coffee table has storage space inside where we keep blankets.  I needed to take this same approach with baby gear.  If you have a little one then you know how much space all their gear can take up.  I was excited to see that Joovy brilliantly combined a walker and high chair into one aesthetically pleasing product – the Spoon. The Spoon is … …..

Wahl Hot/Cold Therapeutic Massager Review & Giveaway

Posted on May 5, 2013
wahlmassager

This review written by Roxanne from Children Teaching Mama. Yes, I am 33 years old, but like many women my age, I already have back issues. This is due to many years of being a waitress when I was in college as well as giving birth to my 9 pound baby. Most of the time I’m okay, but when my back starts to hurt, there is nothing I want more than a great massage. If I could, I would go to a spa every week, but we all know that is super expensive. This is why I was excited to … …..

This review written by Roxanne from Children Teaching Mama. I have to admit that I don’t have much of a green thumb. With that said, I still love to garden and do so each year with the kids. We actually tried indoor gardening during the winter and that was fun, but being outdoors is much more fun. This is why I was so excited to give the Garden Patch GrowBox a try. What is a GrowBox? It’s just the most ingenious gardening idea, making gardening easier than ever! There are two parts to the GrowBox: the bottom, which is the … …..

I absolutely love shopping for my girls and one of my favorite stores to visit is Gymboree.  I’m lucky enough to have a Gymboree about ten minutes from my house – though my checkbook may not agree, hehe.  There are so many things that I love about this company and that set them apart from the rest.   Their fashionable clothing and accessories are created to celebrate kids being kids in unique head-to-toe looks.  Isn’t that awesome?  Kids being kids.  So many companies have tried to turn our little girls into miniature women with short shorts and itsy bitsy bikinis, but … …..

I am so happy that the warm weather and sunshine finally seems to be here to stay.  That means we’ll be spending a lot more time outdoors and visiting our local parks pretty frequently.  Alleigh and Kaelyn absolutely love playing on the playgrounds, but since Willow is only beginning to be mobile the only activity she can participate in is swinging.  And so I needed a place to hang out with my littlest while we watch the big girls run around and burn off all their energy, hehe.  I found just what I needed at Pish Posh Baby plus quite … …..

If you have little ones in your house that enjoy watching Disney Junior chances are you have watched at least a few episodes of the Octonauts.  It’s an adorable show that follows the daily adventures of eight underwater scientists and explorers that make up a rather unlikely crew – polar bear, kitten, penguin, dog, sea otter, bunny, octopus, and vegimal (part vegetable-part animal) – that work together to explore the world’s oceans, rescue the creatures who live there and protect their habitats – both above and below the water.  They do so under the leadership of Captain Barnacles (polar bear) … …..

Loving Moments by Leading Lady: Comfy, Attractive, Affordable Nursing Bras Giveaway

Posted on April 26, 2013
Loving Moments by Leading Lady Giveaway

The better part of the past five years of my life I have had a little nursling by my side.  In those five years I have struggled to find nursing bras that are not only comfortable and attractive, but also affordable.  I’ll be the first to admit that I prefer to spend money on my kids – especially when it comes to clothing.  I tend to stick to sale items or very reasonably priced clothing when it comes to purchasing things for myself.  But the fact of the matter is nursing bras are a necessity which is why I was … …..
