Nuby Fish Basketball Hoop Bathtub Toy Review and Giveaway

Image
My 2 year old daughter and 7 year old son absolutely love this Nuby toy! My kids are such fish that bath time is their favorite time of the day. The Nuby set has a couple fish and a net that suction cups to the bathroom wall. My daughter was so cute....One morning before church, I was in the shower and she kept coming in. I repeatedly told her to get out so that I could take my shower. Finally, I opened the shower door to see my little girl outside the door so that all I could see what her little hands in the bathroom. Why? In her little hands she held 1 fish in each hand. I felt so bad for telling her to get out...she just wanted to share her favorite new bath toy with Mommy. I definitely took those fish into the shower with me and thanked her for sharing. When I was out and dressed for church, she was looking all over my bathroom for her fish. Kids are so cute! For the older kids, just hang the suction cup a little higher on the wall. We can hear my son in there every time. He...

Drain Wig Review and Giveaway

Do you have hair in the drain issues? Water not draining properly? You should try Drain Wig! Check out the Drain Wig on the Today's Show. It is an amazing product. With 4 out of my 6 kids being girls, you can imagine the hair that gets stuck in the drain. We recently thought that we were having pipe issues, but guess what it was? If you guessed a hair clogged drain, you were correct! The maintenance man could not believe the amount of hair that came out. With the Drain Wig you just sink the metal string into the drain holes and let it do it's work. You can use one of these for up to 2-4 months. If there is only 1 girl in your house then you might be able to use longer. Then if you have more than the norm, like a college dorm bathroom, you may need to change more often. The Drain Wig is actually a pretty inexpensive way to save yourself the trouble of calling a plumber. As an added plus, you never have to touch the hairy mess that you left behind. I am a girly girl and t...

Nuby Clik-it™ Soft Spout Insulated Cup Review and Giveaway

Image
This has been our favorite Nuby cup yet. With it's soft spout it is so good on our little girls swollen gums. This specific Nuby cup has the clik it lid. Just twist it on and wait for the click to know that it is locked tight. Some other sippy cups out there leak. I hate that. I love the clik it lids so that my daughters clothes don't get soaked. Such cute designs also. We chose the owl to test. But, the other designs to choose from are: a knight, spaceship, a whale, flowers and jungle animals. Colors and designs for both boys and girls. This cup is a little heavier than most cups due to it is insulated. It will keep your drink cooler longer. My daughter didn't seem to notice it being heavier. This specific Clik it cup holds 9oz of whatever liquid you would like to fill it with. I do not recommend pops though as the fizz doesn't pop up out of the lid. Most sippy cups are that way. You can purchase this cup from diapers.com for about $7.99 Five Lil Bass I...

Devotions For Beginning Readers Book Review

Image
Super cute book! I have a little one who desperately struggles with reading. This is the perfect Devotion for him. He doesn't have to struggle with words that he doesn't understand. I love that there is a word segment that is like having a spelling word that is repeated throughout. Repeating words over and over again is great way to help your child learn that specific word. This book is written by bestselling author Crystal Bowman and award-winning producer Christy Lee Taylor. This book is 240 pages. It is a nice hard back book with beautiful, vibrant illustrations. My 2 year old loves just looking at the bright pictures, while everyone else reads. This would make a great Christmas gift to a child aged 5-8. I would say, that both boys and girls would love this book equally. Devotions for Beginning Readers doesn't just help your child read, it helps them learn to pray. Each devotions ends in a simple prayer for your child to pray. I was sent this book for my child...

Our pets are part of the family. We have Sophie, our 6 year old yorkie. She is my little love puppy. So sweet. She got out one day and we couldn't find her. I was devastated. I started making phone calls because I had taken her collar off to give her a bath and hadn't put it back on her. We finally found out she was picked up by a puppy pound, here in town. Took us a while to get her back. Her tags didn't have out updated information on it, even if she had of had her tags on. I really learned my lesson!

Brave Girls Bible Stories Book Review and Giveaway

Image
Why not join Hope, Gracie, Glory, Faith, and Honor and they go through the Bible and see why they can be brave too. Women in the Bible were brave. God helped them become the strong, brave women that they were. Our girls can be that way too! I am not a very brave person. I tend to hide behind my husband. But I have tried raising strong girls. I sometimes envy women I see with lots of bravery. I love Ruth and Esther's stories. Brave Girls shows you so many strong and brave women of the Bible. Some you might know and well, some you may not. But all the stories are written in a way that it is like the women are telling you their stories. This book is very easy to follow and great Mommy/daughter time.

Nuby Fruitsicle Popsicle Molds Review and Giveaway

Image
Now the toddlers can be just like the big kids! My older kids run around with the popsicles that are shaped like tubes. It is really hard for our 2 year old to use them. She can't figure out how to raise the ice with each bite. She also can't use scissors to crop off the top of the plastic as she goes along. We have also tried the $ store frozen popsicle makers, too big. Nuby just came out with the perfect item for our toddler! Toddler size popsicle trays! The bright colors caught her eyes the minute we pulled the tray out of the box. Each color is bright and shiny just like the rest. Boy and girls colors so they aren't too boyish or too girlie. Although, now, I can't keep my older kids out of her popsicles. I guess they never really grow up. We have tried apple juice, white grape juice, grape Kool-Aid and even just water. Not only are these a great summer time item to have but are great for teething toddlers. We have given these to her when we find her roam...

Man Stuff Devotional Review and Giveaway

Image
Men's devotionals seem harder to find than women's. I wonder why that is? Men need that extra time with God too. Tommy Nelson has over 200 devo's for men! I went looking and was amazed at the amount. If you are looking for a good devotional for your husband this would be a great one for you. Follow along with Josh Turner on this manly Christian journey! My husband feels like if a book touches his hand he will start on fire. With that said I gave this book to a friend of ours, who is a children's pastor, to review for me. Mathew loved the book. He said this was an easy read and really got you thinking and into the Word. As a Father of 8 it was truly a blessed time to be able to sit and read and really connect. Most men go to work, come home, have dinner and go to bed. In between work and children and life they have to try to have an intimate relationship with God also. Not an easy task in this majorly busy world. Being the Father of 8, being children's pastor a...

Giant Microbes Common Cold Soap Dispenser and Stuffy Review and Giveaway

Image
I can not say enough good and fun things about this company! I have worked with them 3 other times and we have loved EVERY product we have gotten. All Giant Microbes products are unique. Do you have a friend who has everything? I'm betting they don't have one of these... Each Giant Microbe is a virus, disease or illness for people or for your computer. My ultimate favorite product that I have received from them is the Sperm and Egg. We have 6 children so it is perfect. This product would also make a great shower gift. So cute and cuddly, and again unique. You can bet it won't be a gift that the couple will get duplicates of. See why I say it is so adorable? The products they have are, in my opinion, ones that everyone on your list will love! We have also gotten to test the cancer Microbe. My daughter loved this one. We have had so many family members and friends die of cancer. It is so hard and not something to take lightly. I think that the cancer Microbe woul...
