Calming Ocean Waves




I have never personally been to the ocean and it is on my bucket list to do so sometime before I leave this earth, but until then my sister send me pictures when she visits the ocean and I can listen to Calming Ocean Waves when I am feeling stressed out.

I can listen to this while I am doing yoga, meditating, and even trying to get to sleep. Very soothing. This would even be great for children having a hard time getting to sleep. This is 60 minutes long which means it is long enough for pretty much anyone to fall asleep too. A new favorite to my relaxation CD's.

You can find Calming Ocean Waves on Amazon.



REST AND RELAX TO THE SOUND OF SOOTHING OCEAN WAVES Do you love the sound of the ocean? Do you feel calmed by hearing waves gently break on the shoreline? This CD will allow you to bring these soothing sounds and their relaxing effects into your home. 

Whether you are unwinding after a stressful day or needing assistance falling asleep at night, this CD can help.

Enjoy this hour-long ocean track without the distraction of big crashing waves and squawking seagulls. All you will hear is ocean waves breaking gently onto a sandy beach.

This CD is 60-minutes of continuous, relaxing ocean waves that will help you relax and sleep.

Peppermint Essential Oil






In our home Peppermint Essential oil is mainly used for headaches and I could have used this yesterday but because I was feeling so much stress I didn't even think about it.

Here I am today pretty much headache free just feeling a little bit of residual stress from yesterday other than that I am feeling well. I can't fix things that are beyond my control.

Another use for peppermint essential oil is to be a drop behind your pet's neck, helps keep fleas away and makes them smell awesome. We also put a few drops in our candle wax for scented candles as well as in our Oil Diffuser for a fresh scent in the air.

I am use to bottles having droppers or just be open mouthed but I really like how this one has a little rubber piece that lets a few drops out at a time. I don't have to measure anymore and can just tip and drop.

My daughter is a Mermaid




My daughter was a little surprised when I called her down to try something on. See both of my girls have been wanting a Mermaid taie and of course it so happens I was picked to do a review but for a smaller size so my youngest was privileged to give one a whirl.

The fit is wonderful, was easy to get the monfin in and out of the suit for washing. The monofin is adjustable so she will be able to wear this for a while before she grows out of it.

It did take us a few minutes to figure out the monofin because I was looking at the wrong side. One side has straps that can be adjusted and one side has the part where the feet as supposed to go.

The zipper is easy to use to take the monofin in and out so your child can walk to and from the water without getting hurt. Now to find out if our schools pool will let her use this while in the water there when we can take her to swim.

This comes in three colors and several sizes. If you have a little girl who likes or dreams about mermaids this might just be the gift you are looking for to make her dreams come true. We paired our Mermaid tail with a blue swim top handed down from her older sister.

This Mermaid Tail can be found in three colors in several sizes on Amazon.


We've created a Mertail mermaid swim set with your entire family in mind. Ocea Mertails bring the mythical world of mermaids and merpeople to life and create memories for the young ones, and not so young ones, that will last a lifetime.

The Ocea Creations Mertail is a swimmable Mermaid swim set which includes a flexible monofin, made of superior swimsuit material that is resistant to fading in the pool, lake or ocean.

The Ocea monofin is beyond exceptional. When developing the Mertail, we chose to expose its 100% recycled plastic for many reasons. Since we know Mermaids tend to stay in the water for extended periods of time, we wanted to ensure that every effort they gave provided the best control to provide better safety and enjoyment. And since we also know your mermaids aren't always in the water, we made it possible for the monofin to become an drawing board. Merpeople can express their creativity, their hopes and memories, by using a special non-toxic and non-permanent marker provided in every kit! In addition, the attachment system of the monofin is specially designed to adapt to small, growing, and adult feet.

Ocea Mermaid tails are extremely stylish and are currently available in 3 unique patterns. The breathable 4-way stretch fabric brings comfort and makes it possible to rapidly release water, which makes it easier to swim with a mermaid tail. This fabric is made of 92% polyester and 8% spandex, which is the same fabric used by elite aquatic circus artists. The tail is also equipped with a long zipper that allows easy insertion and removal of the monofin. 

Makes for an amazing gift for young ones!

Backseat Car / Baby Stroller Organizer





What I love most about this  Backseat Car / Baby Stroller Organizer from Giggle Sprouts is that it is so versatile. You can put this on the back of your seat, the front of your seat, or on your stroller. This can even be hung on a wall in your home if you need some extra spots that need organization.

When your child is in the rear position you can put an iPad in here to keep your little munchkin occupied while traveling while keeping all of their other items like diapers, wipes, bottles, and toys within reach when you need to stop and check on your little one.

The hook up on either your car seat or your stroller is easy as can be, just a snap and a little adjustment by the straps and you are ready to organize away. Great item for both new and seasoned moms.

As a mother with older children and younger grandchildren this comes in handy because I can pop on a movie on the iPad and place it in the pouch and no one can fight over it. Keeps it safe and in case of accident it won't become a projectile which makes me feel better as a mom.
