Polka Dot Mama review & {GIVEAWAY!!} CLOSED!

Before Tessa was born, I searched everywhere for the perfect baby blanket. I wanted something soft and cuddly, big but lightweight, and perfectly beautiful. This task proved to be more difficult than I anticipated. Until I found Polka Dot Mama. Talk about jackpot! Her cuddle blankies not only fulfilled every one of my expectations, they exceeded them!!

We've already seen Tessa sleeping soundly in her Polka Dot Mama blanket. Now let's talk about how completely fabulous it really is. The exterior is made of a gorgeous, super soft flannel. And the interior is made of, well, heaven- a plush minky dot that no baby (or mommy) can resist nuzzling into. As soon as Tess gets fussy, I wrap her in her pretty blanket and she cuddles right up into it, until she is fast asleep. Some might refer to this as a blankie...I call it my little miracle. The weight is perfect. Enough to keep a newborn cozy and warm without burning them up!

But Polka Dot Mama doesn't stop at full size blankets. Here is a woman that understands the needs of mommy and baby. Lugging a big blankie around town is not always feasible or practical. To accommodate the needs of us moms-on-the-go, Polka Dot Mama has created the smaller, travel-sized snuggler blanket. Made of equally soft minky dot fabric, and adorned with an adorable fabric customized initial, you can do no wrong with this perfect little snuggler.

I am so pleased with my blankets from Polka Dot Mama. But my opinion means little compared to the sweet dreams these blankets have provided my sweet little newborn... the real proof of these blankets' perfection.

Visit Polka Dot Mama today and pick up a blankie (or two) today!!

WIN IT!!

Polka Dot Mama has generously offered one of our lucky readers a cuddle blanket and a coordinating snuggler blanket of their choice.

Jillie Willie Review & {GIVEAWAY!!} CLOSED

To make up for the few Baby Shower Bash giveaways that we are missing, I have decided to post a couple of seriously fun giveaways this weekend. First off, is adorable Jillie Willie. At first glance at the Jillie Willie website, I knew I was going to want every single thing offered! Everything is ultra feminine, cheery, bright, and so, so cute! I am not kidding when I say that I have looked at the Jillie Willie site a couple of times just because their products make me smile.

Jillie Willie offers several girly must-haves that I know you will absolutely love! Check out some of these items:
The Suzie Homemaker apron in Leopard. Foxy, huh?
Pom Pom Mop Slippers. These will surely make any cold, depressing day seem fun! And I think I might want to roll out of bed in the morning just to slip into these bad boys.
I had the opportunity to review the Flippity Flops in gold. I love the leopard bottom. Despite the fact that I have freaky feet/toes (Don't look now!), I feel really cute in these flip flops and surprisingly, the are very comfortable. It may be because my toes are so creepy, but the bows are a little wild. They get stuck in my toes, so I have plans of trimming them down a tiny bit. Other than that, these are the perfect summer flip flops, great for casual wear or dressing up.

Jillie Willie also offers Children's Aprons, Gathering Bags, Do's, Groovy Gloves, Kitchen Accessories, Snappy Housedresses, Hugs (for your waist) and Loves (for your arms), and Books.

WIN IT!!

Jille Willie has generously offered one of our lucky readers the Hanging Cosmetic Bag pictured above.

Mandatory entry:

Visit Jillie Willie and then come back here and let us know what your favorite item is (WARNING: It's going to be difficult to choose just one thing!!).

BABY SHOWER BASH Day 5: Baby Dipper CLOSED

UPDATE: NEW ENTRIES ADDED!

I received the Baby Dipper in the mail yesterday, meaning you will get 5 days of Baby Shower Bash after all! Still, Erica has a few more surprises that were intended for the Baby Shower Bash once her computer is running again. Still, I am so, so excited to have the opportunity to share with our readers the Baby Dipper.

After trying out this bowl, I am shocked that not every baby bowl is created just like it. The bowl is contoured so that your baby food is always going to one end of the bowl, making it easy to feed your child with one hand or allowing your child to feed themselves without making a huge mess.
I first used the bowl to feed my son. It made his feeding a piece of cake! I usually have to pull his fingers out of his mouth to get his food in. Because his baby food is easily spooned out of the Baby Dipper, I can feed him and hold his hand at the same time.

After I had fed my son the majority of his baby food, I let him have a try. It was then that I realized how awesome this bowl really is. The bowl's bottom has a non-slip base, which really didn't move as my son pushed the spoon all over the bowl. Also, he didn't struggle at all to get food into his spoon. This feeding was fun and easy for both of us!

WIN IT!!

Baby Dipper has generously offered one of our lucky readers their very own Baby Dipper.

Twenty minute Simple Skirt Tutorial AND GIVEAWAY!!!!

Twenty minute Simple Skirt Tutorial AND GIVEAWAY!!!!

BABY SHOWER BASH Day 4: Boogie Wipes CLOSED

I have found it so difficult to clean out my son's nose and absolutely impossible to help him clear his nose when he is sick. Any time he has had a stuffy nose, I have been desperate for a solution. The result is always a chapped, red, and still clogged nose.

Boogie Wipes is literally a miracle tissue. With added saline, boogies just come right out. The scents are pleasant, which I have found actually distracts my son from the fact that I am wiping his nose. My favorite thing about Boogie Wipes is that they moisturize, so no more red noses!

Here is a little brief info from the Boogie Wipes site that you will love to know,

"Boogie Wipes are the latest innovation in a moist wipe product for busy moms, dads & kids. With added saline, they offer quick, gentle, effective relief of stuck on Boogies (mucus) caused by the common cold & allergies.

Hypoallergenic • Alcohol Free • Unique Formula Moisturizes with Added Chamomile, Vitamin E and Aloe • Gentle Enough for All Ages • Lightly Scented"

Boogie Wipes offer wipes in Grape Scent, Fresh Scent, Magic Methanol Scent (perfect for sick, stuffy noses), individually wrapped wipes for on-the-go, and a Boogie Wipes diaper cake!

WIN IT!!

Boogie Wipes has generously offered one of our lucky readers 2 30-count packages of Boogie Wipes.

Mandatory entry:

Visit Boogie Wipes and then come back here and tell us which Boogie Wipes you are most excited to try.

ATTENTION! Bad news, my friends.

I have seriously bad news. Erica's computer is completely dead. It should be fixed within about 5 days, but she has the rest of the reviews and giveaways for the Baby Shower Bash. So, here is what we are going to do:

Today, I will post an extra review and giveaway not initially intended for the Baby Shower and then in about 5 days we will start the Baby Shower Bash up again from where we left off.

In the meantime, I will post a couple different giveaways for the mommies to say we are so sorry!

So, even though our Baby Shower Bash is temporarily on hold, let's still have some fun!

Look out for giveaways from:

Boogie Wipes

Jillie Willie

Handbag Heaven

Winner!

And the winner of the Tourance 2 swaddling blankets is....

BABY SHOWER BASH Day 3: CarryYou Innovative Stroller Accessories CLOSED

I currently own probably the cheapest umbrella stroller on the market. It doesn't include any storage whatsoever. Because I use my stroller mostly for trips to the mall where milkshakes, snacks, and toys are a must (the milkshake being for the mama!!), I went on a search to find something I could add onto my stroller for some extra storage. That is when I discovered CarryYou, a company that makes accessories and attachments for your stroller. Genius! Each accessory is very lightweight so your stroller doesn't tip over. I'm very impressed!

Some CarryYou accessories options include:

A single cup holder,
A super awesome Umbrella Snack Tray,
A Sicily Double Stroller Cup Holder,
The Pescara Dual Cup Holder, and so much more.

You may purchase CarryYou products online at Babiesrus.com

WIN IT!!

CarryYou has generously offered one of our lucky readers the Pescara Dual Cup Holder pictured above.

Mandatory entry:

Visit CarryYou and then come back here and tell us what your favorite stroller accessory is.

Wordless Wednesday

I am sure you are all dying to see more pictures of cute Tessa (I am too!), but Erica's computer is broken for the day so you get to see more of Carson. Isn't he goofy?

BABY SHOWER BASH Day 2: Piggy Paint! CLOSED

My little princess loves having her toes painted. She must ALWAYS have polish on her toes. I have to agree it is adorable, so I oblige. However, the overwhelming chemical scent has often left me worried about what effect this pretty polish may have on her. Surely nothing good can come from something that smells like it could burn a hole in your skin- which is why I was so excited when I discovered Piggy Paint.

Piggy Paint is a water-based, non-toxic polish specially formulated of natural ingredients and made in America. No acetone of formaldehyde here!! Piggy Paint's hypoallergenic, odorless formula makes it gentle enough for sensitive little hands and noses, yet it dries to a hard, durable finish that can easily be removed with Piggy Paint Polish Remover- which is also non-toxic, safe to use, and contains none of the solvents that could offend your nose or harm our atmosphere. How fabulous is that???

Piggy Paint offers a huge variety of vibrant, fun colors that are sure to make any little princess smile. I received "Tea Party for Two" and the little lady is convinced there is not a more cool color out there! And how cute are those color names: Clouds of Candy, or Forever Fancy. So adorable!

I was so impressed when I opened my bottle of polish and remover and experienced no scent whatsoever. Makes me wonder why anyone uses regular polish. This household has made the switch to Piggy Paint and you should too!!

BUY IT:

Visit Piggy Paint today to purchase a collection of fabulous polishes of your very own. Extra bonus: Piggy Paint has offered Just For Me..and You readers a 15% off exclusive discount on anything featured on the website, including sale items. Just use code FORME15L at checkout before August 15th! Also, spend over $25 and domestic shipping is free. Happy Shopping!

BABY SHOWER BASH Day 1: Exergen TemporalScanner CLOSED

My son has been sick with a fever a few times. Being a first time mom, I get really nervous at the first signs of a fever. I want to check his temperature at least every hour, but checking a child's temperature can be more than frustrating for the child and for the mom. I know my child is already uncomfortable. The last thing he is interested in is holding still long enough for me to check his temperature (I usually check it rectally for my little guy). It's a fight to get an accurate reading. This is why I am thrilled to have had the opportunity to try out the Exergen TemporalScanner. You simply press the scanner in the center of the forehead and move it across to the beginning of the hairline. It is easy and my son actually thinks it is pretty cool. Using this Temporal Scanner would also be a great way to check a sleeping child's temperature without disturbance.
How does the TemporalScanner Thermometer work?

(From Exergen Instructions For Use booklet)

"As you gently stroke the thermometer across the forehead crossing over the temporal artery, the sensor in its probe performs two processes:

First it scans like a video camera, capturing naturally emitted infrared heat from the arterial blood supply at about 1000 times per second, locking in the highest temperature it sense and;

Second, at the same time, a patented system measures the ambient temperature of the area where the temperature of the area temperature is being taken. The patented "arterial heat balance" (AHB) software then synthesizes the two separate readings to accurately determine and display body temperature."

BUY IT!!

Exergen has offered our readers a disount of $5.00 off! You may print your coupon here.
