Born Free Baby Feeding Products

Don’t forget to click on over to my Price Pfister Faucet Giveaway and my Burts Bees Giveaway! When my almost 5 year old daughter was a baby, BPA wasn’t a topic that we knew about. It makes me sick to my stomach now to think about the harmful chemicals she must have been exposed to and what they have done to her body. I remember when we first found out about BPA in baby bottles, my Mom tried to make me feel better by reminding me that back when she was pregnant with me, they didn’t know that smoking was … Continue reading →

Green Beaver Skin Products

I have enjoyed a few Green Beaver products and I am sad to say that I have found the first one that I really don’t like. There aren’t many skin care products that I refuse to use, but the Green Beaver Apre-Ski Winter Body Lotion truly smells terrible. I wish I could get past the smell. I really did try because I truly believe that the product itself would work really well! Maybe if you aren’t as sensitive to smell as I am, you would like to try this out yourself?The Apre-Ski Winter Body Lotion has highly moisturizing botanical emollients … Continue reading →

Upper Canada Warm Honey Nectar Body Butter I love Body Butter, especially at this time of year when my skin can get so dry. I have extreme dry patches on my knees and elbows and this Upper Canada Warm Honey Nectar Body Butter has helped to do the trick. Upper Canada Warm Honey Body Butter is rich in natural antioxidants to smooth, moisturize and protect the skin. What I do love about Upper Canada products is that they are free of parabens, mineral oils and synthetic dyes and they use all natural ingredients. Mmmm….body butter! Oh, and don’t forget to … Continue reading →

REVIEW: Vital ID Bracelets

When I discovered that there was a company out there that sold ID Bands to children (specifically ones that weren’t disposable), I was super excited. I was even more happy to discover that they are a Canadian company! Vital ID offers a variety of Personal and Medical ID bracelets. Vital ID was generous enough to send me samples of Child Safety ID Braclets, Kid Safe Club Safety Bracelet, and Kid Safety Travel ID Band. Ever since my daughter has been able to walk and not ride in a stroller when we are out, I’ve tried to come up with a … Continue reading →

Lunchbox Love

Growing up, my Mom always used to leave me notes. Fun notes and reminder notes EVERYWHERE I looked! My husband actually made fun of me (and my Mom) for the notes when he first met me. He mocked my Mom by leaving ridiculous notes around the house when she was away at the cottage (like don’t forget to dry your hands after you wash them). Now, our family writes notes just like my Mom did when I was growing up. Except, our notes are the fun and loving kind! My husband has left my daughter notes from the time she … Continue reading →

REVIEW: Oral B Toothbrushes and Toothpaste

One of, but certainly not the only challenge with regards to our 1 year old Little Man is getting his teeth brushed properly. I was very excited when I was contacted to try out some sample Oral B products for the kids’ teeth. What I like the best about Oral B Stages is that everything is clearly labeled by age. There are great characters on all of the brushes and pastes and the brushes are made with little hands and mouths in mind. I’m not sure there is anything that would really make tooth brushing fun for my little guy, … Continue reading →

Well, I have to admit that after giving birth to Little Man just over a year ago, I STILL haven’t got my period. Trust me, I am NOT complaining. However, I’m starting to wonder what exactly is going on with my body. Last week, I could have sworn that I was getting it, I even had full blown cramps, but still nothing! Anyhow, I received a box of Always Flexi-Style pads to try out. I tried them out and though I can’t tell you how they work as far as flow goes, I did love how they worked for me. … Continue reading →

BOOK REVIEW: Innately Good by Jan Denise

Leave a comment

I requested a review copy of the book Innately Good by Jan Denise. I’m constantly trying to word things in such a way that my daughter has confidence in herself as she grows up. As a young child and even through high school, I had little confidence. I’m not sure if it was the way I was born or a product of my upbringing, but I am determined to provide my daughter with as much assistance in this area as possible. I know that how we say things as parents are taken to heart by our children and we have … Continue reading →
