Old Fashioned Book Review

Image
Great book! Refreshing change from some of the story content out in books these days. Meet dashing Clay and follow him on his journey to change from his old ways. He seems to want to change from his juvenile ways and become a upstanding man. Then meet Amber, the free spirit who moves in above his antique shop. At first, she isn't so sure about Clay. Watch as they both learn to change and trust other people. This book definitely takes time for you to get to know each character. I did not realize that this was made from a movie. I am going to have to hunt it down to see if they followed along or wrote a lot of new stuff. I love how it was written. I love getting to know my characters so this was perfectly written for me. You can purchase this book through Amazon for $11.65 http://www.amazon.com/Old-Fashioned-Rene-Gutteridge/dp/1414379331/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1427299131&sr=1-1&keywords=old+fashioned If you are looking for a good clean read wi

Easy Clean™ Soap Dispensing Bottle Brush with Suction Base

Image
My kids think this bottle brush is a toy! They love to wash the baby's storage bottles with it. This not only fits into regular size bottles, but it fits into breast milk storage bottles too. Very easy to unscrew the top, pour in your favorite brand of dish soap, screw back together and start washing. You can't get much simpler than that. This brush comes in a couple different colors. Pink, blue, green and yellow. I love that quit a few of my Nuby products can be used as the kids get older too. We use this bottle brush for the older children's sippy cups and for my water bottles. Gets then nice and clean. The Nuby bottle brush has a little window so that you can see when the soap level is getting low. Oh yes, and the suction base so you can just set it upright on your counter. You can purchase this product from Buy Baby direct, Sams Club and Amazon.com for around $12- 2pk http://www.amazon.com/Nuby-Clean-Bottle-Suction-Colors/dp/B005LETPQA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8

Nuby Breast Milk Storage Containers

Image
These storage containers have multiple uses. Not only can you use them to store your pumped breast milk but you can also use them to carry dry snacks when the baby gets older or I heard they are compatible with some of the Nuby bottle tops. Since we have a newborn in the house who nurses this is perfect for pouring the pumped milk into and either storing in the fridge or the freezer. If you store in the freezer just remember to not microwave your breast milk as it takes away some of the nutritional value. If you make your own baby food, these would be perfect storage and travel containers for that also. When the child gets older, like our 2 year old, you can still use the storage containers. You can toss one in the diaper bag with fruit puffs or cereal. Our 2 year old loves to snack! The containers are dishwasher safe, on the top rack. If you would prefer to wash by hand then you can use one of the Nuby bottle brushes. We have 2 kinds. We have one that is just a normal bottle

oogiebear Ear Wax Grabbers for Baby Review

Image
This is so cool! The pediatricians office always has these neat earwax grabbers. They wouldn't ever give us any to take home due to safety reasons. Now oogiebear makes them just for us! Babies come out and have these tiny little noses and ears. Sometimes the baby q tips just shove the earwax further back into the ear canal. This happening can cause all sorts of problems. (this was told to us by our pediatrician) The big bulb nose suckers irritate babies to no end. Plus, have you seen what happens to the inside of those things. EWE!! If baby is small enough the end doesn't always fit in their little nostril. With these neat little oogiebear "grabbers" it is a semi tear free happening. You do not have to worry about going to far up the nose or into the ear canal. These are made with just a little scoop at the end of a bigger bear. Much more sanitary and due to the Oogiebear being reusable, it is much better for the environment. Just rinse it under really wa

Yochi Yochi Portable High Chair Review

Image
My little girl hates to sit in the grocery cart. Not only that, but lots of carts have the belt broken. Instead of endlessly searching the carts for one with a usable belt, why not bring along your Yochi Yochi? We have not used ours in the grocery cart yet, but we have used it on a chair. We went out to eat the other night and we have terrible luck with highchairs. She is too smart and knows how to weasel out of the belt. We brought along out Yochi and voila she stayed put the whole time! This was the most pleasant eating experience with her. You just slip the child's legs through the leg holes and either velco the straps around the chair or pull the fasteners around it and clip them in place. The Yochi Yochi Portable High Chair fits most sizes of chairs. Not only can you use it for chairs and grocery carts but it can also be used like one of the child "leashes". As a walking harness, Yochi is great for toddlers just starting to walk, but can be used for old

Be a Butterfly Hero. The majestic monarch butterfly is in decline and needs our help. National Wildlife Federation (NWF), America’s largest wildlife conservation and education organization, is giving away 50,000 Butterfly Heroes Garden kits to help save the monarch butterfly. NWF’s new Butterfly Hero Campaign, launches March 4, 2015, and asks people to submit a photo of themselves making the international sign language sign of the butterfly on NWF’s Butterfly Heroes website, at: www.nwf.org/butterflyheroes. By taking the pledge, participants will be mailed a free kit (while supplies last) and if entered by May 15, are eligible for a chance to win a trip for four to Walt Disney World. Botanical Interests is supporting the campaign with a donation of native milkweed seeds. "We can each be a part of saving the monarch butterfly. The simple act of planting milkweed with your family provides monarchs with a place to lay their eggs, and helps ensure this iconic species has a futu
