Bath time is a daily occurrence in our home. With four young children, it seems like someone is always in the tub.  I don't know if all children just enjoy bath time this much or if it's just our kids.  Our 3 year old is going through a phase where he will take multiple baths in one day.  He gets it in his head that he wants another and there is no distracting him.  So he happily plays for hours in the tub these days.  Perhaps our bath tub may have something to do with it too?  Every child Read more [...]

Thank you Rockin' Baby for providing me with a product to review, free of charge. These are my own honest opinions.  Babywearing has been part of my life since my first daughter was born. Now that she is a toddler, she doesn't want to be carried as much because she is a 'big girl' now but with Baby #2, I have the chance to babywear again! I am already familiar with a few types of carriers but I had never tried a sling. Many people told me I should give them a try because they are so easy Read more [...]

We have four young children ages 8 all the way down to 1. Since I've been through most stages four times over, I've tried many different products. Coming from a mom who has gone many nights without sleep, I'm willing to try different things to accomplish some rest. Desperate times call for desperate measures and I've been known to use living room camp outs as a way to get the older kids to sleep faster some nights. I was excited to partner with Mommy's BLISS, who was founded in 1999.  They Read more [...]

*I was provided with a Boba wrap. All opinions are my own. I was in the delivery room when my nephew Drew was born. I heard his first cry and fell in love with him immediately. From the time that he was first able to play, my favorite way to spend time with him is just playing. Sitting on the floor or running around the backyard, forgetting about all of the adult things going on in my life and just  taking his lead and playing. He is well aware of my love of playing with him and has grown Read more [...]

It seems like life is always so busy. A few days rarely go by where we don't have to run errands, visit someone, run get groceries, or just head to the library for some reading time. Just this past week we took a visit to the library for their story hour and then went for a walk around town. (Since we live in the country on a dirt road, we have to make a point to go somewhere to "take a walk.") When we do run short errands or head somewhere for a short period of time such as the library or church, Read more [...]

*I was provided with a Carter's gift card in exchange for this post. All opinions are my own. Before Kelsie was born, I knew that my sister was a bit worried about getting all pink clothing for her, because she got bored of putting her son in blue clothing all day everyday, and thought she'd get sick of pink, too. So while shopping for the baby I was keeping my eyes open for unique colors for baby girl clothing like greens, yellows, oranges, and bright blues. Every time I shopped, I wound up with Read more [...]

With the holidays coming up, I end up with the same problem every year.  There is no place for our youngest to sit to eat at relatives houses.  For Christmas at my Grandma's, she does have one high chair but there are usually a few little ones who could use it.  So whoever is quick enough gets to use it while the rest are left holding their child while trying to juggle feeding them and eating themselves.  Not an easy task amidst all the people and hustle and bustle.  The other issue I have Read more [...]

We have four young children ages one through eight so we've been through our share of children's products.  Some brands and products definitely seem to rise above as better quality and great investments.  One company that I've found and have been pleased with is Tiny Love.  I was able to partner with them in the past on their Magical Night -Newborn To Toddler- Mobile and their 3-in-1 Rocker Napper in the new Flow Stripe color.  Both of those products turned out to be amazing and are still a Read more [...]

Tommee Tippee is a brand that I trust and look forward to using when my new baby arrives.  I was given the opportunity to review the brand new Tommee Tippee 360 Sealer.  If you are wondering what this new treasure is, it is a place to put baby's diapers instead of just having to put them in your own trash can.  Once the Tommee Tippee 360 Sealer arrived at my place I was really excited to open it and see what this was all about.  Now, I had a diaper pail for Little C's diapers and it just Read more [...]

I make no secret that I am a huge fan of Stokke products. The Tripp Trapp was the first Stokke product I found and fell in love with immediately.  It has been a couple years since I first learned about Stokke and I have recently had the pleasure to partner with them.  Keep your eyes open during the 2013 Holiday Gift Guide here at Emily Reviews for my review and chance to win your very own Tripp Trapp. You can read my first Tripp Trapp review Here. The reason I like Stokke products so Read more [...]
