Splash by Bummis

categories: Reviews

Now that it’s officially spring, I am ready to ditch the winter coats and get ready for summer weather. Although it’s still cold in Ohio I couldn’t wait to try Bummis new swim line Splash, so I packed up my little lady and we hit the local indoor pool.

 Splash Swimmi –  One Size Swim Diaper

Even the families that don’t cloth diaper have a need for a reusable cloth swim diaper. Bummis one-size swim diaper is our go to this summer, and since it fits 10-35 pounds it will be used for the next couple years. You will always get a great fit thanks to the 4 rise sizing options and 6 waist snaps. Bummis one-size swim diaper is specially engineered to hold solids in but allow liquids to pass through. This swim diaper has double gusset leg elastics giving a nice snug fit around the leg, keeping everything in the diaper and not floating in the pool.  I feel a swim diaper that snaps on is 100% necessary because let’s face it once your child gets into the water trying to slide a wet diaper off (god forbid it contains poop)  is nearly impossible. The inside lining is made of super soft polyester making this not only comfortable for baby but extremely easy to clean.

Splash Swim Tops

I love that Bummis makes coordinating tops to go along with their super cute swim diapers. Choose from a Tankini or a UV Tee. The Splash Tankini comes in two sizes: small for 0-18 months, and large for 18-36 months. The UV Tee is available in four sizes: small for 3-6 months, medium for 9-12 months, large for 18-24 months, and extra large for 2-3 years. Both the Tankini and the UV Tee are made of lycra and provide certified UPF 35+ protection. I love the added sun protection of the UV Tee has with it’s long sleeves. The UV Tee and Tankini are perfect for playing in the pool, hanging out on the beach and water parks. Rinse after using especially if in chlorine water.

Caps

I always try to keep my little lady’s head covered when we are outside playing. Bummis has it covered with 3 kinds of caps perfect for playing in the sun. My favorite is the Baseball Cap, my daughter has such a small head I have always had a hard time finding a baseball cap to fit her. The baseball cap fits her perfectly and couldn’t be cuter.  The baseball cap comes in 2 sizes small for 6-18 months and large for 2-5 years. Bummis Sun Cap is ideal for sun protection since it shades both your child’s face and neck. The swim cap is made of lycra and is perfect for playing in the pool. Bummis caps are made to match the other items in the splash line but look great all on their own.

We have been using these pans exclusively for several weeks and I am loving so many things about them. Here are MamatheFox’s top thoughts:

  • Easy to clean
  • Cooks my food evenly (the center of the pan is as hot as the edges)
  • The handle is easy to hold (use a mitt)
  • It has deep sides, which is great for sauces and to keep some oil splashes contained

I read that these should not be stacked with other pots/pans, to keep the scratching down. The bottom has a special stainless steel plate, and that can cause scratches against other surfaces if not treated properly. I have not experienced any scratches, and I have stacked mine (I know I know…). I do appreciate that they tested these and were happy to share their experiences with the consumers.

2-pc Set: a $99.95 Value for only $94.95 – $5.00 Savings! This (2) piece set includes one 8″ and one 10″ ceramic fry pan.

You do want to use some form of oil or grease every time you use that pan. This will help not only for food, but the pan kept in prime condition. This is unless you are cooking something very high in fat (like a duck breast). Applying oil will help to avoid dry burning the ceramic.

If food does get caked on your pan, let is soak with water, soapy water for 30 minutes. Don’t try to scrape it off right away. That can cause scratches and damage to the integrity of the pan.

Go Little One Go

categories: Reviews

 

 

Help your child reach their crawling milestone faster with the Go Little One Go line of crawling apparel. The patent-pending anti-slip safety-grips all over the knees will give baby a great layer of protection between their little legs and the floor. Your baby will have an easier time moving around on any surface in the house; tile, hardwood, laminate, and even carpet.

 

Their line of clothes are so adorable and can be mixed and matched easily. They offer crawly rompers, leggings, and harem pants all with the anti-slip grips on the knees. Long sleeved and short sleeved shirts are available, and also gift sets which include leggings or harem pants with a shirt of your choice.

This crawly romper from Go Little One Go is such a great option to help your child crawl. The super soft material, adorable colors, and anti-slip star grips on the knees are the perfect combination for baby. Not only will your child be comfortable and cute while wearing the romper, they will hopefully have an easier time learning to crawl.

 

The 95% rayon from bamboo and 5% spandex material makes this crawly romper so unbelievably soft even you’ll want to wear it! The fabric is allergen-free and will create a soft barrier from the outside world. The romper has a two way zipper allowing for easy access to baby from the top or the bottom. This crawly romper comes in many different colors which includes: black, blue, dark grey, light grey, mint, and pink. Choose a color for a specific gender, or pick one that is gender neutral!

 

 

One downside I have found with the crawly romper is the sizing. They have only one size – 6-15 months. This makes sense because it is normally when a baby is learning to crawl, but it can create some issues if it doesn’t fit baby perfectly. If you have a chunky baby that is between 6-12 months old, this romper is perfect. But if your baby is on the skinner side, this romper is not going to fit your baby well. The problem is that the anti-slip grips are supposed to fit over the knees, but if baby isn’t tall enough or thick enough the romper won’t fit how it should. Although you could pull the elastic leg holes up a bit so the grips are closer to the knee – which Go Little One Go suggests – it still may not fit exactly how it should.

Sunday Rileys C.E.O Cream – The New Boss

categories: Reviews

C.E.O is the amazing new cream that has been recently released by the ever amazing Sunday Riley. It is not, however, named C.E.O for being the boss, but for it’s main ingredients, vitamin C and exopolysaccharides. These ingredients help protect skin from pollution and aid in the fight against signs of aging. They also included antioxidants, which together gives us the C.E.O. name. If you are a women who is like me, and thinking more and more about what I can do to keep my skin youthful, then this is a the new cream from you collection. While it may not have been named C.E.O because it’s the boss, in this Mama’s eyes, it is!

Sunday Riley is a brand that focuses on fast results with a long-term payoff.

You can purchase Sunday Riley’s C.E.O Cream at Sephora

This Mama’s Experience

I have never, I mean never smelled a cream so amazing in my whole life and I have seen a lot of creams that are meant to be for natural anti aging skin care. C.E.O has lime pearl extract, which gives it a fresh and soft scent that lingers only as it is applied. I do not like heavy perfumed creams, but I also dont like ones that smell like the root ingredients either. It’s a fine line really. Sunday Riley really hit the mark with their choice in lime pearl extract. This not only gives the cream the most beautiful scent, but its a key ingredient too. The lime Sunday Riley uses is extracted from the caviar lime. These pearls are a natural source of AHA, which is perfect for skin exfoliation.

The other key ingredients are: Vitamin C, exopolysaccharides and Bisabolol. Here is my easy to understand break down of these ingredients.

Vitamin C – It is clinically proven to promote natural collagen (youthful looking skin/anti aging like quality). It brightens your skin tone in a similar to products such as Glutathione by Quicksilver, provides anti-oxidant support and fights damage caused by UV-B exposure (the sun). There are several types of vitamin c that can be used in manufacturing a cream and Sunday Riley choose the one that is less irritating so keep your skin calm and happy.

Exopolysaccharides – this is found in Kopara deposits located in French Polynesia (in the ground). It protects our skin from the visible effects of pollution exposure bu shielding effect from PM 2.5 (the particles found in smog).

Bisabolol – this is a derivative from Chamomile. It helps calm the look and feel of reactive and sensitive skin. Its often used in baby products because of its soothing effects.

With time I have noticed a shift in my skin. In my 20’s I had a more oily skin that was acne prone. Now, in my 30’s my skin is way dry and much more sensitive. It makes sense that now I need to shift my beauty regime to one that is more nutrient based and one that is rich in moisture. I often have to apply multiple layers of face cream in the mornings after my shower. This is due to my skin require more moisture than it used to. With Sunday Riley’s C.E.O, I only have to apply my cream one time! This means it is really soaking in fully and working instantly. I love how my skin feels after applying a luxurious coat of C.E.O. It quickly absorbs so if I am in a hurry I am able to immediately apply my foundation and make up for the day.

As a mom who is constantly outside, on-the-go and unfortunately aging daily, I know this is the prime time to care for and nurture my skin. As a woman in her mid-30’s I have to be proactive and take extra measures to ensure I keep my youthful and healthy skin. While I don’t strive to be a beauty star, a model or anything more than who I am, I do want to be a good steward to my face and the skin the good Lord gave me. I believe by using this rich in moisture and fully loaded face cream I am doing just that.

As you can read, I have nothing but positive things to say about Sunday Riley’s C.E.O Cream.

Do yourself a favor and pick one up today, and be sure to add it to your Mother’s Day wish list this year.

Capresso Stainless Steel Espresso & Cappuccino Machine

categories: Reviews

Capresso never fails when it comes to coffee. They understand how to get the most out of each bean and how to get your taste buds dancing. Their EC PRO Espresso & Cappuccino Machine is no different than that other high quality machines I have used, and it is a must have for your home or office. It is not far off being commercial standard, like the machines sold by Nella, worthy of use in an actual coffeshop or restaurant.

This easy to use EC PRO Espresso & Cappuccino Machine is more affordable than any other machine I have seen, but still has the super high quality parts that make the coffee beans stand out. Capresso includes some top of the line features in this model that helps it stand out in a line of other espresso machines out there. It is one to consider when looking for a Super Automatic vs. Automatic Espresso Machine, or any other kind out there. Here are some of my favorite features of this machine:

  • Includes two espresso filters; one for convenience, one for control; choose the one that’s right for you
  • The double spout espresso filter creates an optimal brew, quickly and easily; brews 1 or 2 espressos at a time
  • The bottomless espresso filter lets you brew barista style and perfect your technique
  • Advanced pump boiler maintains a reservoir of hot water at the perfect temperature for faster and more consistent results
  • State-of-the-art boiler increases brewing pressure and temperature stability
  • 15 bar pump provides optimal pressure for rich crema, the thin layer of foam that marks a perfectly brewed espresso
  • Commercial-style power frother for perfectly foamed or steamed milk for delicious cappuccinos and lattes
  • Heavy-duty stainless steel construction
  • 42-oz, removable water container
  • Large, integrated cup warming tray
  • Indicator lights for “Off/On” and “Coffee/Steam”
  • Easy-to-clean removable stainless steel drip tray
  • Coffee scoop/tamper included

Stylish die-cast housing and powerful performance in a compact design. The EC PRO Espresso & Cappuccino Machine is the perfect way to brew all your favorite barista specialties at home.

This machine was really made with the household consumer in mind. Most people would have to learn how to begin using milk frother with something like this, but it comes included here which is awesome. This machine is easy for a beginner to use, but yields the quality you would expect from a local high end coffee house. When you make espresso you need to be sure to use a more finely ground coffee. This is to get the most out of the bean when the water pressure is extracting the flavors. If you use a thicker or more course ground bean you will not get quite the rich outcome. However, this machine was made with the regular household in mind. This mean you can use average size ground beans (what you would find in a bag of pre-ground coffee beans) in this espresso machine. I would still recommend a more finely ground bean, but if you are in a pinch and ran out of espresso grounds, you can use your standard coffee without fear of hurting the machine or getting a sub-par cappuccino.

Danique Jewelry – A Mothers Day Dream Gift

categories: Reviews

As a mom I have always wanted a piece of jewelry to represent my kids and our family unit. That is why I adored receiving a custom name necklace gift! When I saw the stunning selection of custom jewelry by Danique, I knew I had to share the amazing collection with all my readers. There are so many places to get birthstone jewelry done, but none that are so classy, simple, timeless and affordable as with Danique Jewelry has to offer.

Everything at Danique Jewelry is made to order and can be completely customized.

With Mother’s Day around the corner all my girlfriends and I are chatting about what we are asking for this Mother’s Day. We chat a lot about sleeping in, not doing the dishes, but honestly, we really want something special to open that will represent the love that is our family. We talked about the different types of jewelry that we liked, you can visit this link to see them here but ultimately decided that custom jewelry would be an amazing gift for Mother’s Day. This is where a custom piece by Danique Jewelry fits in. You can scroll through the pages of options available at their website or Etsy. Both showcase all their options and the beautiful designs and concepts.

Danique Jewelry Offers:

This Mama’s Experience

When I first looked at all of the options at Danique Jewelry I was stunned, and honestly, I still am. I love every option they have available for Mothers necklaces. My necklace is the Birthstone Mothers necklace with Leaves. My favorite feature about this necklace is how you can have an initial by the small children stones. This is such a fun and unique feature I have not seen at other jewelry makers offer, and it really gives you a chance to express a love of gemstones and to have some real meaning behind them. Before I found out what birthstones each of my children had, I had heard about Haruni from a friend to learn a bit more, and now that the order’s in i’m glad I know just what each stone involved could handle.

Back to the piece itself; The small leaf will be imprinted with a single letter to represent the name of the child which the stone represents. The lowest droplet, the Mothers stone, is the lowest and is larger than the smaller children stones which lay slightly above it. You can add as many children/stones to these necklaces as you want. I think the way Danique Jewelry layers the stones, having the mother stone larger, and the addition of the leaves make this necklace stand out among a sea of other necklaces. It’s beauty and class make it a piece you will keep forever and will not fade with time. If you are thinking of gifting one of these gorgeous pieces, you may want to consider purchasing a modern jewellery box to accompany the gift.

Perfect for any Mother or Grandmother to represent the love of each child in their life

Cubbie Lee Toy Company

categories: Reviews

The couple created a line of toys that are wooden, affordable, and will last for a long time. Their toys are very educational and are perfect for kids of all ages.

Created with sustainable harvest timber, Cubbie Lee toys pledge to have a minimal environmental impact.

The Cubbie Lee Noah’s Ark is so adorable and perfect for any child, of any age. The set includes one ark with a removable top and many different animal pieces – two of each of course. One side of the ark has open slots for matching the animal shapes and placing them into the ark; while the other side has a door that opens up, allowing your child to explore his/her imagination. The colors on the ark are my favorite part about the whole toy. The orange and yellow on the top really make it pop, and the waves at the bottom make the ark really come to life. The play time possibilities are endless with Noah’s Ark.

One downside that I have found with the ark is the shape slots on the side. These are really great for learning and having baby shape sort, so for that aspect I really like them. The aspect of them I don’t like is how low they are to the bottom of the ark. I like to store all the animals and people inside the ark when we’re not using it, but they seem to fall out very easily because of the open slots. With the slightest shake or move, at least one animal falls out. I feel this is a very minor issue because it does not affect the play or safety of my child.

My son loves the pound bench by Cubbie Lee. The bench has bright, primary colors that really make it visually appealing. My son is just 10 months old and he has a blast with it. Not only is he learning to hammer with the tool, he is also learning cause and effect – hit the knob and it drops. It is also great to have him hold the hammer with either hand; he’s learning how to grasp. He is also learning good movement and control – he can actually hold something with a long stick and hit something else with it. Its never too early to start the learning process!

The Cubbie Lee vehicle block puzzle is a little too advanced for my son right now. The quality of the puzzle already impresses me, though. I can’t wait for him to get just a little older so he can play with it. The puzzle is made up of nine blocks that make up a picture of a vehicle; creating six different pictures. I like how the blocks are painted on rather than having a sticker on each side. When kids chew on the blocks the paint is great because it doesn’t fall off like it does with the stickers. The puzzle is small and compact – just 5 x 5 x 2 inches!

 

Give Cubbie Lee Toy Company a try! Their products are so cute, affordable, and perfect for any child. Check out their website or go to Amazon and see their products. You won’t be disappointed with any of their products!

There are so many possibilities when it comes to Easter Basket stuffers. Candy, trinkets, stuffed animals…but what are some things that you child will really love? What can you use? What will be worth the money? The answer is simple: Crayola.

 

Each year I sit and think of what are the items that my kids will be thrilled to see and actually use (not end up in under the bed until garage sale season). It’s pretty hard to decide… I know that my kids are pretty artsy and once they’re a bit older might enjoy some machine embroidery designs that they can work on and hang up around the house with pride. For now, though, I’m stuck thinking of some useful toys. Here are some top ideas for your baskets.
