Safe Deodorizer for the whole home

The Purifyou air deodorizer sachets can be left anywhere you want to freshen up a spot in your home, like the diaper pail, refrigerator, or even bathroom.  What I love best about these sachets is that they last  about 12-15 days but if you place them in direct sunlight for a few hours and repeat this every 12-15 days you can use each sachet for about 3 months.

I love that tit comes with so many so I can use them all around my home and keep the extras in the bag until I need to change out a new one for a worn out one. Safe for use around your home and family. A little product that gives big results.

The Purifyou deodorizer sachets can be found on Amazon.


What Purifyou has to say about their product.

IT’S TIME to purify your nursery room and entire home from those wretched odors, with purifyou’s all-natural odorless and hypoallergenic deodorizers. Our deodorizers filter the precious air you breathe, and work great in all corners of the home, from the diaper genie diaper pail to the family pet’s favorite nap space.

SUPERIOR FILTERS: Utilizing activated carbon technology, our eco-friendly air purifiers come from the finest non-toxic natural and moso bamboo (a biodegradable and highly renewable resource). They consist of large-shaped porous granules, and a 99.99% nitrogen purity level, maximizing odor elimination and not just masking odors like so many other deodorizers available today.

GET MORE: With a set of 10 and each sachet weighing in at 11 grams, our sachets have up to 25% more than other leading diaper pail sachets on the market. Each sachet is individually wrapped to ensure maximum freshness, so that your filters are only activated when you want them to be used. Our sachets also come in a complimentary linen bag, so you can safely store your unused filters in style, and out of baby’s reach.

EASY TO USE: Reclaim your baby’s sanctuary, as well as your entire house in no time. Simply place a filter underneath your diaper pail’s lid (using tape or diaper pail filter holder), underneath the diaper pail lining, in shoe closets, in the refrigerator, or near your pet’s favorite corner, and voila – your house once again belongs to you, your family, and those guests you’ve been wanting to invite over.

Take-A-Part Build Toy

Summer is just around the corner which means summer vacation for my girls. That leaves me to finding things to keep them busy in between what they come up with, mostly for rainy days where they can't get outside to play.

Having little toys like this building kit, and craft projects really saves the day in more ways then one.

It gives my child something fun to do while they are learning to read, follow instructions, match up pieces, sort, count, and of course build.

Great for children ages 5 and up. Everything is included to make two different models but with a little imagination your child might even be able to make a few other designs of their own.



The Take-A-Part Build Toy is available on Amazon.

#ShareTheLuv with $100.00 AMEX gift card

As a mom of 6, grandmother of 2, and past child care provider I have to say Luvs was my most used diaper for cost and effectiveness overall. Yes I bought other top diaper brands when I could get them on sale with coupons and the price was cheaper then Luvs but to be honest that just does not happen often so Luvs was my go to diaper. 

Luvs has large stretch tabs, ultra-leakage protection, a money-back guarantee (found here) and multiple high-value coupon offers throughout the year, Luvs with NightLock provides high-quality features for less cost than premium brands. Available in sizes newborn to 6. 

Right now we are diaper free but I wanted to pass on this great news for those who are still in the diaper phase so that they could really save some money.

The official diaper of experienced moms, Luvs is offering big savings in this Sunday’s paper May 29, 2016  for $2.00 on any one Luvs Diaper Pack   with an expiration of June 25, 2016.  

Additionally, in partnership with Ibotta, Luvs is also offering a limited-time $3 rebate on any boxed variety of Luvs diapers, 54ct. box or larger.

That is a total of $5.00 savings which really adds up quickly when you are purchasing diapers for one or more children. Think of the savings over a year with just the cost difference of Luvs compared to others. They say $150.00 but if you add in coupons, sales, and things like ibotta you can at least double that. College savings anyone?

If you don't already have ibotta register at ibotta here. Then download here for apple and here for android.

Now for the Giveaway

100.00 AMEX gift card to be given to one of my readers from Luvs

No Slippy

Most mats give off fumes, or get moldy while this mat made from silicone does not. I love the way it suctions to the tub, and the way the mat feels under my feet.

Some mats hurt your feet because the suction cups are so stiff but this is soft to stand on. The textured surface is also nice for having grip on your feet while showering.

This is a short mat, so I would like to see this mat made longer to fit the whole tub.

This mat is great for children so they don't slip, for the elderly to keep them from having falls, as well as those who are disabled, or anyone really who wants a little extra safety in their bathroom.


This Silicone Bath Mat can be found on Amazon.

Change your baby in comfort

Boy do I wish they had something like this when my older children were babies, this would have made things a bit easier then having to rummage around in the bag for items forgotten to change a dirty diaper. Everything from wipes, ointments, change of clothes, and diapers can be stored in this bag.

I love the wrist strap as well as the handle to carry this with. It has one outside zipper, one inside zipper, a mess pocket as well as a stretchable spot for storing wipes. What is really nice is that the bottom part of the pad can be unzipped and thrown in the washing machine, we usually do that with our towels and then hung to dry.

Great baby shower item.

Baltic Amber Teething Anklets

These Baltic Amber Teething Anklets from Pretty Baby are beautifully crafted. I do have to say upfront that I like the necklaces better. Our family has a bleeding disorder and anklets like this can cause bleeding and scarring even after a little bit of time left on the ankle. My daughter made me a ankle bracelet from embroidery thread and a few smooth beads and in a short time I had bruising and bleeding under the skin which resulted in a scar around my ankle where it was touching, even though it was loose. 

Now for those without a bleeding or bruising disorder I think these would be perfect. I just wanted to put that out there for other families like our that deal with this issue. These anklets are really well made and you can mix and match with different outfits as well as share them with other mothers of children in the teething stage. 

Always keep a close eye for wear and tear as well as taking it off for any length of time you will be away from baby. Each set comes with the authenticity card.

The Baltic Amber Teething anklets can be found on Amazon.


What Pretty Baby has to say about their product.

To keep your baby from tugging at the jewelry, we suggest putting it on as an anklet, with a sock over it! The jewelry is approximately six inches around and is currently offered in five colors: cognac, lemon, cherry, honey, and mixed.

Baltic amber contains succinic acid, believed to be a natural pain reliever with healing properties. When worn against the skin, it warms with your body temperature and is said to release small amounts of the substance, which soothes and alleviates some of your baby's teething pain and discomfort. In fact, baltic amber is said to be soothing for people of all ages, making it a smart purchase for pain relief in general.

Millions of parents swear by this type of alternative medicine, favorited as a means of healing infinitely safer than other forms of teething relief suggested by traditional medicine, which bear the risk of unwanted side effects.

The benefits of Baltic amber include:
• Reduced discomfort, inflammation, and pain, allowing your baby to eat and sleep more peacefully.
• Reduced drooling and resulting rashes on the face.
• No risk of negative side effects - 100% natural!

Our amber comes from northern Europe and has been tested and confirmed as genuine amber in both Europe and the US. Our amber baby teething bracelet comes in a protective pouch with our Certificate of Authenticity.

For The Safety of your Child
Please do not leave you child unsupervised while wearing the jewelry for any length of time. Additionally, please note the the jewelry is not meant for chewing.

BackSeat Pledge

Looking for a great way to teach your child car etiquette? Well this might be the thing for you. If you have a messy car mainly from your little ones it is time to take control back over your car by teaching your children how to take responsibility for their actions. In this case for the things they bring into the car. This pledge will help them remember what they bring in they must take out in your own vehicle or someone else's.

A great starter for them to learn responsibility for their personal space as well as others. I really like this kit and there are enough bags for 5 children but only enough for one complete kit for one child. It would have been nice if they had included enough for 5 children for everything but this kit is nice and my girls are very excited about implementing this when we get our next vehicle. We are currently in between vehicles but soon enough this will go into action. They have already taken the pledge to take care of their things in other vehicles until we get our own again which is a great step if you ask me.

I would like to see more products like this that encourage children to help out.


If you are interested you can find the kit on their website.

What Bentley Brandon's Backseat Pledge has to say about their product.

Bentley Brandon’s Backseat Pledge offers parents the best solution ever. The Backseat Pledge requires children to take a pledge that they will keep their parent’s backseat clean. The benefits of the backseat pledge kit are numerous and parents across the globe have appreciated the heavy loads taken off them with the backseat pledge and what it offers.
Most parents are always keen on what to teach their children who go a long way in helping them go about their day-to-day lives. We often tell our children to calm down when we are driving. We are also fond of cleaning up spills and messes or seeking professional services such as Luxury Wash that can clean up the messes. The Backseat Pledge saves parents money by teaching their children how to behave when riding and be responsible regardless of their age for auto care of the vehicle.

Bath Toy Organization

Spring time is here so out with the old worn bath toys and in with some new fun toys. I gave this to my granddaughter to use during her bathtimes in our house. I am sure my 8 year old will play them too, but they are mainly for my granddaughters. I love that this set came with two scrubbies, wall hooks to hang them on, a bath organizing bag with two hooks, and 6 tub toys, great gift for any child who love to play in water during their bath times.

Bathtime was always my favorite part of the day as it was for all of my children growing up, from bubbles, toys, and tub crayons. Lots of fun waiting every night.

Alphabet Magnets are Classic

To be honest I have always wanted a complete set like this for my children. I have always had to order from two different places to get a set of upper and lowercase alphabet magnets. This set from Somasix has both the upper and lower case alphabet but they also include a set of numbers.

These are great for playing, learning, and making words. Add a couple of these and you can write sentences.

I love the bright colors and they work great on our fridge, freezer, filing cabinet, and magnetic white board. My girls love them. This is something that can keep my grand daughter busy for quite a while.


The set of magnets can be found on Amazon.

Car Shades For Kids

Keep your little ones from getting burned while riding in the car. You get two sun shades that can easily be attached to your window and folded up when not in use.

I didn't get the eye mask for the kids with my sun shades so I am waiting to hear back from the company.

These can also be used in a home or office to block out glare from the sun on your TV or monitor.

I love that they fold up nice and easy for storage when not in use. They take up such a small amount of space but give great results in minimal time. No more suction cups just stick it to your window when you need it.

Warm and Cozy

Cuteness if you ask me. This set is available in several colors and fits as described. Cute for winter or even for Halloween as part of a costume.

Love that the hat is lined with extra softness for keeping the head warm and cozy. The scarf is nice because you can just put on over their head. You don't have to worry about wrapping, and rewrapping everytime it comes undone because it is just one solid piece kind of link an infinity scarf. can also be worn by an older child as a head and ear covering.

Love the antenna's gives it a bug or alien feel.



This hat and scarf set can be found on Amazon in several colors.
