Thank you to Liz And Roo Fine Baby Bedding for providing me with product, free of charge, for review. All opinions are my own.   While there are times where I shop for the bottom price on a product, there is a lot to be said about quality too.  I have learned this lesson the hard way more times than I care to count because I purchased something for a steal of a deal to only have it fall apart, break, or be of disappointingly low quality.  Of course, then I have to replace the item Read more [...]

Thank you to Tadpoles for providing me with product, free of charge, for review.  All opinions are my own. When we had our first child over nine years ago, one thing we always struggled with was where to put her when we ate.  We didn't want to have her on the hard floor in the dining room and even putting her in the bouncer we had felt like she was too low.  Since bouncers take up quite a bit of room we kept it off the table as well.  So, we either took turns holding her as we ate or put her Read more [...]

Thank you to Jungle Roo Cloth Diapers for providing me with product, free of charge, for review.  All opinions are my own. I feel like a fairly confidant cloth diapering mama, considering I've only been doing cloth for about eight months now.  We only started with child number four this past January when he reacted to the "green" disposables we were spending a fortune on each month.  I jumped in head first and we've 100% cloth diapered from the start.  I was afraid by trying it part-time, Read more [...]

Thank you to Bamboobies for providing me with product, free of charge, for review.  All opinions are my own. I have, thankfully, been able to breastfeed all four of our children.  With baby number five's due date inching ever so close, I'm definitely planning on nursing again and have high hopes that all will go well.  While I've had a few issues over my nursing durations, I've been quite lucky to have mostly smooth sailing.  When I was nursing baby number three, I came across a company with Read more [...]
