Monkey Nuby Snoozies with Binkie

Image
My little girl has sensory integration disorder. She has the need to chew almost all the time. We have expensive chewies and we have Nuby chewies. She seems to like the Nuby ones better. Nuby has so many different chewy items. Just look for the teething items. Nuby is so much less expensive and yet withstands so much. She has 3 year old teeth and we have not had any Nuby item break or tear. I stand behind the Nuby name. How cute is this with the stuffed animal attached to it. The other binkies like this one are permanently attached to the binkies. This one is detachable for easy washing. Plus, if anything happens to the binkie you can replace it. You can purchase this from Amazon for $10.99 https://www.amazon.com/Nuby-Natural-Pacifier-Snoozie-Giraffe/dp/B01J88ARXE/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1471748749&sr=8-1&keywords=nuby+snoozies+pacifier Love Love Love that all Nuby products are BPA free for your child's protection.

Nuby 3 pk Non Drip 10 oz Bottles

Image
My grandbaby loves these bottles. She was used to the Dr. Browns bottles but when I got these to test, she took to these really quick. My daughter likes the small well in the tip of the bottle nipple. Unique skirt on the nipple flexes to allow air into the bottle. The bottle nipple has bumps on it. Provides teething nubs for massage and stimulation of gums. Helps so much for teething infants and toddlers. Excuse the half naked baby. She keeps taking her clothes off. The colors of the bottles are so pretty. Each color can be used for boy or girl. The shape of the bottle itself is great for easy holding. Little hands have a hard time in holding a heavy, liquid filled bottle. You can purchase these amazing bottles from: Available at these retailers: ◦ www.diapers.com ◦ www.amazon.com $9.20 for the set of 3 from Amazon ◦ www.idealbaby.com ◦ www.cookieskids.com ◦ www.babyearth.com ◦buybuy Baby ◦TJ Maxx ◦Baby Depot at Burlington ◦Ross Dress For Less ◦JC Penney ◦DD’s Di

Peppermint Oil 1oz

Image
Have you ever used any essential oils? Different oils have different uses. Some of the oils are used for tummy aches. Some for helping you sleep. Some for helping you feel rejuvenated and give you energy. Whatever the oil you choose or need, make sure that you are using it as directed. Peppermint oil, not only smells good, but can help relieve those pesky headaches. Just drip a little onto your finger and rub on your temples. This does not replace pain meds or doctors visits. But can reduce a headache to almost nothing. Have a sore throat? Rub a little onto your finger or into your hand and apply around your throat. Let it sit for a few minutes and the scratchy should be relieved. We put this in the humidifier when the baby gets a runny nose or when my allergies kick in. It helps open up the airways to help breathe. Last time I had a serious headache/migraine, I rubbed a little on my temples and my wrists. In about 45 min, with Motrin and a heat pack, I was feeling a lot bet

VETRA Focus Duffel Bag Holdall Carry Sports Bags

Image
Vetra has a great line of products. I got to try the volleyball and this duffel. The Vetra duffel has come in handy a couple times. My kids are so busy and always on the go. You can pack for a road trip. You can have your kids pack for camp or just something as simple as packing for the gym. The Vetra Duffel holds quite a bit of stuff. It can hold swimsuits for all with towels for 4, swim goggles, deflated floaties and more. Not only do they have good products but they are very inexpensive. I am loving this bag. With this many children, I need to find sturdy and inexpensive products.

Image
We love silicone bakewear in this house. It doesn't rust. Doesn't seem to burn as easy. So easy to clean! Just soapy hot water or toss in the top shelf of the dishwasher. You don't even need to use sprays to keep it from sticking. We usually do, out of habit, but it's not a necessity. So many things that you can make. You can also fill with home made baby food and store in the freezer and then pop the frozen logs out and store in a freezer bag. We made corn muffins tonight and they were delish!

Live Infinitely Foam Roller For Muscle Relief

Image
Like I said in my review of Live Infinitely's exercise ball. My youngest daughter has Sensory Integration Disorder. So yes, a couple times, we used this for my sons back but mostly as therapy. Our Occupational Therapist loved this product. My daughter loved the feeling of the foam roller. The weight was enough to give her some added therapy. She craves deep pressure and this helped. She rolled on top of this and had it rolled over her like a rolling pin. We said she was "insert her name here" dough. She was also able to stand on this roller and hold onto a ledge. While doing this, it seemed her own version of exercise. For my son, who has back issues, he was able to use this to work it out. He was in a really bad car accident around 2 years ago. I love all Live Infinitely products. There are camping hammocks, infuser bottles, massage sticks, exercise band sets, cooling towels and exercise balls Do not roll directly on your spine, bones or joints Always roll ea

Live Infinitely Exercise Ball (purple)

Image
We did not use this, a lot, for an exercise ball. My youngest has sensory integration disorder and uses one of these in her Occupational Therapy sessions. Her OT recommended her getting one of these for her to use at home. I was so excited to get this ball. It is ribbed, also. She loves to just rub her hand all over the ball. When she is feeling overwhelmed, we lay her on the ground and roll the ball over her with slight pressure and she is good to go. My daughter also rolls over the top, with assistance and gets the pressure she needs. For the exercise part. My oldest has gone to sitting on this, as a chair, for dinner. Her way of getting just a tad bit of exercise. I have heard of people trading in their office chairs for these balls. It sounds like it would be a great idea. This ball does come with the air pump piece. This company has some great therapy and exercise products. Check out Live Infinitely on Amazon for all their other great products! You can purchase t

Package of 6 Cloth Storage Bins (Gray)

Image
So many decorating and decluttering ideas, begin with storage bins. Storage bins can be found at almost any retailers. I have seen 3 or 4 different sizes and lots of different colors. We have used our 6 bins in different rooms of the house. My husband and I took 2 for the shelf in the bathroom. We have 2 larger bins on the bottom shelf that hold pads, panty liners and more. Then we have the 2 gray ones on the next shelf up to hold toilet paper, toothpaste and toothbrushes. Bins are wonderful to hide things that you don't want seen. My oldest daughter took 1 for her little girls toy shelf. It was a great way to store little toys. My middle daughter took 1 to put in her sewing stuff. So many different ways to be used. With the handles on the sides, you can transport from room to room. We used to keep diapers and wipes in one. That way the other kids could bring it to us as needed. Would also be great for the kitchen. Store packets of food products or spices. Great to

Welchs Fruit Snacks

Image
Our 3 little ones could live on fruit snacks if we would let them. I love the ease of having them. Quick car ride, take a few packs. After nap treat, pass them a pack. Need a snack for work, toss a pack in your purse. Literally, anyone can eat these. You can do so many things with fruit snacks. You can add to jello, use as cake toppings, toss in a peanut butter sandwich instead of jelly. You can even put in a mix with peanuts, raisins, cheese crackers and more. The possibilities are endless. How do you like to eat your fruit snacks?!

3-Piece Silicone Spatula Set

Image
I love any product that will withstand a household of 10! These are nice and heavy duty. I have 1 child who bakes all the time. She loved to use these. The 3 sizes were great for different cooking projects. Because of it being silicone, the cake mixes and such just slide right off the spatulas. That is nice so you don't have to use your fingers or another utensil. The clean up is super easy. Hot water and soap or toss in the top of the dishwasher. Each one of the spatulas has a hole in the end so that you can hang on hooks instead of tossing in the utensil drawer. You can purchase this 3 piece set for $7.99 https://www.amazon.com/Silicone-Heat-resistant-Spatulas-Professional-Crystal-like/dp/B01DUI07RY?ie=UTF8&keywords=homegarden%20spatula&qid=1461937889&ref_=sr_1_2&sr=8-2#customerReviews

Nuby Clik-it™ Soft Spout Insulated Cup

Image
I prefer, as the main dishwasher in the house, to have the sippy cups without the extra non spill piece. Every time that it isn't me, who does the dishes, the piece gets lost. When the piece is lost, the cup is of no use. The silicone spout is great to have and cleans super easy. This cup can go on the top shelf of the dishwasher or your can use a Nuby bottle brush. Either way works great! The designs don't seem to fade either. I like that about half of the designs for this cup can used for either sex. My daughter loves her blue whale cup. We also have the owl. Cup lids are interchangeable. Nuby cups are so inexpensive compared to most of the sippy cup brands out there right now. You can find them at Kmart, Walmart and Amazon. This specific cup has an insulated base. Put ice in your cup and it will last longer. You can purchase this cup for $7.99 https://www.amazon.com/Nuby-Insulated-No-Spill-Silicone-Months/dp/B00HDODOJK/ref=sr_1_9_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1467064582&

Sara Lee Creme Filled Snack Cakes Review

Image
My family loves Sara Lee Snack cakes. I swear I think that my kids know when a new flavor or cake comes out. We are a family that is always on the go. Between the kids babysitting, errands to run and activities, there is never a dull moment! I love to be able to have snacks on hand. Sara Lee provides that for me. (we also love the on the go healthy snacks too) I think we have tried all the different cakes and flavors! My husband loves the Crumb cakes for breakfast. Before I found out that I couldn't eat bread products, I loved the brownie chocolate chip cakes! I will have to look and see if Sara Lee sells gluten free... These new crème filled cakes are so soft and yummy. Grab singles to go or with my big family grab a box of singles to go. Take camping or just on a road trip. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LB4RvpgsWws If you are a mom, grab a glass of milk and a snack cake....go hide in the bathroom and take a breather for a few minutes.

Nuby Children's Hangers 10pk

Image
Nuby is a well known, trusted children's name brand. They have been making children's products for many, many years. Each product they come out with seems to be made better than the last. Their hangers are no exception! These 10 BPA free hangers are super thick! I was able to bend them pretty far without them even having the hint of breaking! You can not do that to the hangers from Walmart. Check out the thickness here: As you can tell the one on the right is the Nuby hanger. I am loving these hangers! In the winter we hang pants on the bottom rung of these hangers and the tops over them. The Walmart hangers sometimes sag in the middle if the baby pants are jeans and not just leggings. But the Nuby hanger bottom rung is double the size of even the top of the Nuby hanger. I can't brag on these enough. The Nuby hanger is on the left so if you look at the bottom rung you will see how thick it is compared to the rest of the hanger. Great for hanging up the bottoms
