Traveling during the holidays is stressful enough, but when you have an infant, there is an added level of anxiety. A lot of parents like to hire a campervan in Australia in this situation so they have the space for someone else to take care of the infant while on the road but that isn’t for everyone. As any parent will tell you, road trips with children of any age are challenging. But infants require extra attention and a little extra preparation. With some careful planning those long drives to visit family and friends can be relatively easy and without worry. If you’re going to another country with your little one and there will be a lot of air travel and road trips involved.
For air travel you can either go for commercial flights or hire a private charter. The difficulty with flying with a commercial airline is that, along with you, your kid can also feel the stress of waiting in long lines during security. You may also have to pack a lot of food for your kid as the in-flight meals are not satisfying. If you need to take your little ones to the bathroom repeatedly, you can also get an eye from fellow passengers. That is why, many parents prefer hiring private charters from charter companies like Jettly. Flying private means, you can skip the usual stress associated with airports and commercial flights. Plus, many private aircrafts have on-board entertainment features that can improve the mood of your kids and give you a chance to relax.
For road trips, consider checking out something similar to e-mietwagenkreta for your car rental needs. A friend used their services when they went to Crete, so I hear and they were very happy with the service. 1: Travel while they sleep: Infants sleep an average of 17 hours a day, so that gives you plenty of time to drive, while your baby is in a peaceful slumber. Plan your trip around naptimes or hit the road when you know your baby will be ready for a longer sleep. 2: Frequent breaks: Infants nurse or bottle feed every few hours, so during a long road trip, plan for frequent stops. During those brief breaks, you can feed your baby safely, change diapers, and give your little one a break from the car seat. 3: Provide entertainment: There will likely be times during a long drive that your infant is awake. Just like older kids, babies get bored, too. But a little entertainment can keep your little one occupied and fuss-free in the car. Invest in a few stimulating toys like the Giddy Up Gal Rattle and electronic musical Pony friend by Yookidoo. They are full of textures, sliding beads and sound surprises that will promote your baby’s tactile, visual, and auditory development. MSRP: $14.40 Available at: www.Amazon.com
4: Use a portable baby monitor: Keep an eye on your rear-facing infant from the front seat with the zooby Car and Home video baby monitor by infanttech. This portable monitor is a must-have for traveling parents. The wireless monitor includes night vision so even if you’re driving at night, you can watch your little one as they sleep. The zooby comes in a variety of plush styles that babies and toddler will love. MSRP:: $199.00 Available at www.babiesrus.com . There are also better alternatives, but these come with a cost usually. If you don’t have to stick to a budget, consider a Levana Baby Monitor (Reviews here: https://www.babymonitortown.com/levana-baby-monitor-reviews/).
5: Bring a security item: A small security item like the Security Blanket by Miracleware can make your little one feel comfortable even on a long car ride or in an unfamiliar place. Its small size, and soft, breathable fabric make it the perfect blanket for rear-facing infants to cuddle while they sleep. MSRP: $12.95 for a two pack. Available at www.Babiesrus.com

I have been wearing glasses for more than half my life. I like my frames and the fun styles I can wear. The attitude and personality I can achieve from frames, along with the comfort I find in them, are why I choose to keep with frames over contacts. I wear them everyday from morning, noon to night. One things I have always wanted was a pair of prescription sunglasses. Being in my 30’s and with my style I just don’t feel like transitional lens are for me (they kind that automatically becomes tinted in bright lights). I have tried wearing oversize sunglasses over top of my prescription glasses and my husband hates it. He thinks I am being ridiculous. I thought I was being crafty… :-p So I have been grinning and bearing it….until now!
I found out about GlassesUSA.com recently and did some additional research. I know loads of people who buy their glasses online. I just never thought about doing it myself. But then I saw the amazing selection of frames – including brands like Ray-Bans, Oakley, Armani Exchange, DKNY and many more. This was a legit website with real brands and styles that appeal to me, the everyday mom. The website is laid out in a very easy to navigate manner. Allowing you to click between brands, styles, shapes and price points easily. However if you’re wanting peace of mind and don’t want to have to wait until your glasses come to see if they’re right for you, you can see if your health insurance policy covers optical correction and get your glasses made perfectly for YOU.
GlassesUSA has been making glasses for consumers since 2008. They feature a huge lab with state-of-the-art equipment to get us the highest quality glasses we desire. If customer service is something you consider in making purchases you will be pleased to hear that they respond to emails within 24 hours and phone calls within 10 seconds! They love their customers and know that without them they wouldn’t have a job! Making the customer happy is of utmost importance. Because of this attitude they really stand out in the online glasses community.

If you have Vision Insurance, they are on the ball with providers and how to work with them. Getting you the prices and coverage benefits from your plan. If you are not sure how to order glasses, they have Virtual Optician’s that can help you make the right choices on selecting your glasses.
Trying on the frames is the most fun part about shopping with GlassesUSA. You can take a photo with your webcam, upload a photo from your computer or even grab one from your Facebook! After you choose you picture you line up your eyes and save the image. You can them try on countless frames to see which look best on your face. I love being able to see what I will look like in a future pair of glasses. It makes the online shopping experience for satisfying, knowing that I will get a pair that really will look nice on my face.





People are precious. What a beautiful and loving company motto. Yorba Organics is the organic skincare line you have been looking for. While many companies may be organic, they fall short in other sections, like green practices or not considering cruelty-free ingredients. Yorba Organics made sure to structure their entire company and development around creating products for adults and children without making any compromises.

Some of my favorite things about Yorba Organics is that they harvest their ingredients in the wild! They are sustainable naturally and don’t require fertilizers or chemicals to regrow once harvested. Better for the earth and better for you. They search the globe high and low, in remote forests and jungles to find the right ingredients for their products. They will not settle for just any old ingredient. They do this to locate high concentrations of beneficial ingredients, and it has paid off.

I was able to try out their shampoo, conditioner, face wash, clay wash, moisturizer and body lotion. Here are my thoughts and tips based on my experience.
These are products are really, honest organic. They have a slight tan tint to most of them. At first I thought it had a low amount of foundation in the moisturizer because of the coloring. After talking to a company rep I was told that they do not use any additives to alter the natural colors. The color you see is the true color of the natural ingredients. Pretty cool, huh?! After using it for a while now I can say it will not effect the coloring of your face. It soaks in just like a true moisturizer should. The moisturizer goes way farther than I expected. Typically with organic products I feel like I have to use more to get the results I desire. With moisturizers in the past that are organic I take a nickel size to cover my face & decolletage. With Yorba Organics I was shocked my first time using it. I had squirted out way too much. It was rich, creamy and covered my face and neck with such a small quantity. This is a product that is really high in value based on it’s low price of $16.95.
The shampoo and conditioner is made with Marula Oil, “Marula Oil is renowned for its cleansing and refreshing properties. It also provides protection against free radicals and helps to repair the skin. Marula Oil has a pH very close to our skin pH so it is mild and gentle enough to be used on even the most sensitive of skins” – Yorba’s Website
I loved how the shampoo gave a slight lather, soapy feel that is very hard to achieve in an organic product without SLS (sulfates). The conditioner had no lather or soapy feel, so I used more than I probably need. I like to really feel my hair coated with conditioner as if I am giving it a mask treatment with every use. Their conditioner does not achieve this, but I know that the thick feeling is not needed for it to truly moisturize my hair. The ingredients stand for themselves and you don’t need to use a higher volume to achieve the results you desire. I know this now by how my hair looks and feels after using their shampoo and conditioner set for a while now.
The Exfoliating Clay Wash is such a fun product. This body wash is a creamy scrub with a lovely natural clay color. It goes on smoothly and leaves my skin feeling soft and clean. This clay wash features Kalahari Melon Oil. “Kalahari Melon Oil has regenerative properties and helps to restructure skin cell walls. With high levels of essential fatty acids, it also leaves the skin supple and hydrated after use. Along with a high fatty acid content, Kalahari Melon is also rich in oils, protein, carbohydrates, minerals and nutrients that all act to reduce skin stress, hydrate and pH balance skin” – Yorba’s Wesbite
Face cleansers can be tricky for me. I use eye makeup and often forget to use eye make remover before washing my face. Past organic face washes that I have tried never come close to taking off my eye makeup. With Yorba Organics I didn’t even consider it to take off my eye makeup, but it did! I mean some days there is some left, but as a whole I am shocked at how well it works. One of the key ingredients in Yorba’s face cleanser is Kigelia. “Kigelia is a clinically proven antibacterial and is known to aid in the natural treatment of very dry skin conditions and Eczema. It is packed with nutrients that aid in the repair of damaged or aging skin. Kigelia is also a highly effective anti-inflammatory and antioxidant ingredient” – Yorba’s Website Being that I am now in my mid 30’s, taking care of my facial skin has a whole new meaning. I mean honestly I blew off caring about my skin until really recently. Knowing that I need to make this skin last and take care of it. I am only getting older and more wrinkles from here on out! LOL! Knowing this takes care of my aging skin really gives me a peace of mind. My friend couldn’t report the same levels of satisfaction so she decided to look into more permanent solutions from professionals at websites similar to thevictoriancosmeticinstitute.com.au. These products don’t work for everyone even if they are fantastic!
Yorba’s entire line is such high quality and it smells so natural and peaceful. You will instantly fall in love with these products and will come back to try out more products, I can assure you, you will be happy.

If you have a hard time with double strollers (and I mean come on people, they can be such a pain in the butt) you have to look no further. I have discovered literally the coolest double stroller ever. It has features that will blow your mind. It’s gorgeous to look at and the Supa Dupa is supa cozy. It gives you the ease of smooth travel with the added bonus of support and strength for a full days worth of adventure. They really worked their magic when creating this new amazing piece of equipment.
What makes Cosatto special is their formula for design and colors. They strive to make the most fun and colorful strollers you can buy. I know they are certainly the prettiest ones I have ever seen, and as a blogger I have seen a lot! Cosatto believes every newborn needs a brilliant fanfare of joy and color. Cosatto is now available through Amazon, Babies R Us, Nordstrom and a few other online retailers.
The Supa Dupa Double comes fully assembled. I honestly expected there would be a few things I would have to piece together, but nope, it’s fully ready to use out of the box. No screwdrivers required. If you want to put on the hood/sun guard, then yes, you would need to snap that in. Plus, the box it comes in can provide hours of entertainment for your toddler as an added bonus.


There are so many features to this stunning stroller. I will highlight the most important here.
