Beauty or Fails..... The Must haves and the Must Nots....

  When it comes to my kids my husband and I ALWAYS want what is best for them. We want them to eat healthy and get all the nutrients they need. We decided to try out Nurture Life which consists of prepackaged meals for kids. The way it works, is they have an age range of options to select from. These options even include your babies. With that being said we selected meals for my daughter who is 10 months old today and our son who is 6 years old. The way it works is simple….. You subscribe, they deliver with it being cold on purpose and NEVER frozen and all you have to do is reheat and serve…. simple right?   Nurture Life includes Stage 1, 2, and 3 for babies. For example, the following shows you what is included and the price for stage 1: ·          Stage 1 – 6+ months o    Plan Options and Pricing: §   Your Baby’s 8 Meal Plan ·          4 –   8oz.

I have tried many snack bowls and cups with my children and i have always had them fall out or not hold up to how they work. However, we recently tried out the SnackPals cup with our 6 year old boy who is rough and tosses his snack cups up in the air or simply swings them around.  With the SnackPals cup he did not make a mess at all. It is by far my go to item when loading up his snacks. The cup has to be closed when getting the snack from the base to the serving cup area. In order to get the snacks to the top simply turn it upside down and give it a shake and voila! When you open the lid your snack awaits! SnackPals interlocking hinges dispense snacks one mouthful at a time, When the lid is closed the flow gate swings freely allowing a few snacks to escape. However, when the lid is opened, the flow gate stays closed helping to ensure that snacks only go where they belong. This also allows for a good portion control and the rate of feeding. There are other benefits to this pr...

            Sometimes when we first see a product, we question it… “Is it really worth it?” “Why would anyone need that?”   That’s how I first felt about the Beebo – But I have to say that it actually is a great product. Yes you can hold a bottle with your hand but what if you had a product that helped free up a hand? This is great when you have a 5 month old who is feeding and a 6 year old who becomes needy of either a snack or lunch or even sitting and reading a book.             The Beebo is a hands-free bottle holder which allows you to enhance the feeding time for you and your baby. During your little ones feedings it gives you the ability to do many things as I mentioned before. This is great for parents who both bottle feed and who bottle feed with pumped breast milk. The Beebo is an easy to use device that goes on the shoulder and it holds just about an...

Ok I personally have a picky eater at 6 years old. He doesn’t want to try anything. I’m not sure why this is. He will try some stuff but others… forget about it LOL. So for me trying to find ways for him to explore and give himself more options we decided to try out the Bentgo Kids lunch box by Bentgo. The Bentgo Kids is an innovative bento-style lunch box that was designed for active kids on the go. This lunch box allows us to come up with endless nutritious foods for him to pack in a total of five convenient compartments. The large portion we can fit things from sandwiches (cut out with cookie cutters or a half size sandwich).   Then you have three mid-size compartments good for fruit, Jell-O, veggies and other little snacks that may be his or her favorite. Then the last compartment is fully functional for a dipping sauce. We can put fruit dip, dressing or even yogurt in it which is the best for our son.             The...

            I love talking with young women who start their small business and work hard to make them grow. I met Aleisha Winterton on Facebook when I was researching some items for my daughter and myself to help my daughter the best I can when it comes to breastfeeding her. I personally had an issue feeding her on my right side as I could not produce as much as I could on my left. So I originally took a look at her page to learn more about her Milk’n cream. Before I get in to that, I want to tell you all a little about Aleisha that I had the chance to learn. Aleisha is the founder, owner and the operator at Before & After Lactation and Smitten Baby Co. She said she had started her journey about a year ago when she became the breastfeeding coordinator at her previous employment. She was in charge of educating moms and offered support with breastfeeding. She realized there was a huge need with breastfeeding support and educa...

  One of the neatest things I received that would be great for ANY baby shower gift is the Puj Splash – Newborn bath set. It is $94.96 however; it is currently marked down to $74.99. It sounds pricy but I promise you it’s worth it for what you receive and the quality of the products! In the set you receive the following items: Ø   Compact Infant Bath – This bath fits in a wide range of pedestal and countertop sinks. This allows parents to bathe their little one in a comfortable and upright position. This keeps you from having to bend over or kneeling over a bath tub. The great thing about this product is that it is mold and mildew resistant and it dries in seconds!   Ø   Hooded Infant Towel – This towel features two silicone tabs that interlock around your neck so that you have a towel that keeps you dry and ready to wrap baby warmly in seconds after bath time is over. It is made of thick ultra-soft cotton and parts are completely machine washabl...

Monica is a very talented woman who specializes in custom baby clothing. I came across Monica and her boutique on Facebook and I'm so glad I did. She has created some adorable items for my little ones. I have recently ordered a few more items from her as the quality of her products are great and stay just as nice once they are washed! Before I share some photos of the items I have purchased from her, I would like to share a little about Monica. She has currently been sewing for close to or at 7 years now. She started out by making just blankets. However, after she had her second daughter she noticed the high demand and trend in baby leggings. With that she couldn't understand why people were asking outrageous prices for them on Etsy. She then decided to take a sewing class from a woman in Vernal, Utah. There she learned the basics of clothing and she then invested in her first serger and went from there.  Now, she can be seen making adorable baby clothing that is pur...

Due to the fact that ...

As most parents know, it’s so hard to keep our baby’s fingers short so that they don’t scratch themselves or even us. Personally when my daughter was about 2 months old; I tried clipping her fingernails. For me, that was the last time I would do that! I cut my little girls finger and the sad part was I used baby nail clippers. You would assume they were safe to use on those tiny little hands wouldn’t you? Well for me it didn’t work out so great. However, I came across a product and after a lot of research, YouTube videos and personal reviews from other parents I figured I would give it a try. If you haven’t checked out the Baby Comfy Nail clippers it is a MUST !!! I love them! My daughter does NOT ever get cut with these! The Baby Comfy Nail Clippers are a one blade nail clipper so it doesn’t touch your baby’s skin! There is a flat plastic ledge on the bottom that helps push back baby’s skin moving it out of the way while the top blade cuts the nail and ONLY the nail. The n...
