Thank you to IKIKI for providing me with product in exchange for review purposes. All opinions belong to myself.  In my experience kids either love shoes or hate them. My oldest loves them and wears shoes most of the time. My youngest enjoys putting her shoes on and taking them off, not necessarily wearing them regularly. I'm sure you've seen the shoes that light up when you take steps, which are all around pretty neat. The problem I've found with most light up things for children is they are Read more [...]

Thank you to Lifeway for providing me with product in exchange for review purposes. All opinions belong to myself. Probiotics are becoming more and more popular in the news, media and medical community. You might be asking yourself what are probiotics. Probiotics are the helpful bacteria found in fermented foods and some supplements that can help your body operate a little smoother. Most people know about the beneficial bacteria within yogurt, essentially probiotics are that same beneficial Read more [...]

Are you planning a co-ed baby shower? Here are some awesome game ideas for a couple’s shower. As you can see from the pictures we had games for both the guys and the ladies. Everyone got involved and had lots of fun! Daddy Diaper Derby ~ Just the guys participated in this game. I had stations of items around the front lawn - an area with a baby, a diaper, a hat, a onesie and a blanket. The guys had to race around the front yard picking up the items and then stop at a 'changing Read more [...]

This post is sponsored by Stonyfield.  All opinions are 100% my own. The Stonyfield brand is quite well known.  My family especially loves their yogurt selection but they offer a variety of organic and conventional choices from milk and cream to frozen yogurt, milk pouches, fruit snacks, YoKids, YoTot, YoBaby, Smoothies, as well as a variety of yogurt types and flavors.  But today the question is, "Can a cow save a penguin?" Stonyfield is confident that they definitely CAN make a difference Read more [...]

Thank you to Adorology for sending a nursing pillow slipcover for review in exchange for my honest opinion.

You can see my Adorology Car Seat Cover and bandana bib reviews HERE and HERE. When I heard Adorology was coming out with a nursing pillow slipcover I jumped at the chance to try it out as well. The Adorology Nursing Pillow Slipcover Read more [...]

I partnered with Pfizer Consumer Healthcare on this blog post and was compensated. All opinions are my own. I remember seeing commercials discussing spring cleaning as a kid, and feeling confused. Why do people clean more in the spring? It wasn't long after getting my first apartment that I grew to understand. There is just nothing that compares to deep cleaning with the windows open on an early spring day. We've been having a ton of April showers here in Michigan but I am eager to get spring Read more [...]

I have been a fan and customer of the company SwimZip since way back in 2012.  Our very first SwimZip was their navy blue rash guard with a little turtle in the corner but I've loved watching the brand grow, expand, and flourish in the years since.  They have a unique style, high quality, affordable prices, and amazing designs that keeps customers coming back for more.  So I am, once again, thrilled to share our love of SwimZip with you today. Sending a big thank you to SwimZip for sending us Read more [...]

My husband and I never really got to experience or claim that our children were "great sleepers".  While our first did okay, the next four would probably have been classified as terrible...  They only wanted to sleep while being held, worn, or, on occasion, in the stroller if they fell asleep while you were pushing them.  To be completely honest, I usually didn't mind.  I loved holding our kids and spending that time snuggling them.  But by baby number five, I really wanted my arms and bed back.  Read more [...]

We all know that subscription services are all the rage these days.  They offer the convenience of having your stuff delivered right to your front door.  However, some are better deals than others.  I've seen plenty of clothing services that provide a styled box of items for myself or my kids but still charge full price!  Personally, I'd rather just shop myself then.  However, there's a new(er) and better choice around that guarantees a good deal, great service, and happy kids and that's Wee Read more [...]
