Guest Post- Review of Melbourne Blind Company

Recently I had some work done by Melbourne Blind Company and could not be more satisfied. I want to give them a good review to let you all know how happy I am! I have been looking new blinds for ages, and I had a lot of trouble finding something that I liked because the top quality blinds are so expensive, but with Melbourne Blind Company I was able to find the quality and price that suited me, not to mention great service. Because we have some windows in the house that use external window shading and some use internal, so I had to look for varying shades to use in different parts of the house. I wanted to get rid of my outdated curtains as well.

There were heaps to choose from; roller glides, panel glides, romans, verticals, venetians, aluminums, shutters and blackouts. In the end I went for shutters in some parts of the house, which are external shades, and in other rooms I picked venetians in different colours depending on the colour scheme of the room they were in. I love venetians because you can control the amount of light they let in by adjusting the slant, or open the window completely by having them pulled all the way up. I'm so excited to finally have my new blinds installed in time for summer!

Photo Friday!

We went to the park last week and I've been so busy I forgot to post!

It's not everyday that we go to the public park, so when we do it's kinda a big deal lol

We stopped for some very unhealthy but yummy fast food(which we don't do often) pigged out and played!

I think my little brother Scott was more excited about the park then Gracie!

When we got there I was delighted to see we had the place all to ourselves and the place was quite clean too. It was a bit hot though, Florida weather, ya know 80 degrees in the middle of winter lol

I can't believe my sister Stacey still has her "Wish Box". I made 3 of these(for my Mom and 2 sisters) over 10 years ago. I made them from wood Popsicle sticks and the lid actually opens to store stuff!

Blooming Bath Review and GiveAway!!

 I was recently contacted by Blooming Bath to review the Blooming Bath for babies and i must say at first glance i thought to myself, this looks like another needless baby item that will just take up clutter in my house. But after i read some information on their website i decided to give it a try and boy do i wish they would have contacted me sooner!! This little Blooming Bath is amazing and beautiful, it's so soft and fluffy. Gracie just slips and slides when she's in the bath and the Blooming Bath helps me keep control of the slippery situation. Not only can it be used for bath time(which it is intended for) but the girls put it on the floor as a fluffy movie watching mat LOL Also i thought to myself how great this would look on the wall as decor for Gracie's room when she grows to big to use it!!

 

 *Mommy Approved*

Here is a little information from the source-

The Blooming Bath is made of plush, cuddly, yet durable and easily washable materials. Its quick-drying foam-filled, flower-shaped pedals conform to almost any sink, creating a safe, soft and supportive pouch that your precious little one will enjoy -- guaranteed. Blooming Bath’s plush materials cradle your baby unlike any other baby bathtub can. It can be used in the sink or in an existing tub to make bath time easy and fun for everyone.
Blooming Bath creates a luxurious and fun bathing experience for your baby. Moms and dads will love not having to endure bending over a low tub to support a slippery baby at awkward angles.
"When your baby’s so soapy and slippery, and when you’re trying to bend over a tub or keep them in place in the sink, it just takes the enjoyment out of a moment that should be such a fun time," said Blooming Bath Co-Founder Eric Devericks. "When you can take a problem like that and solve it in a way that has moms and babies smiling, it’s great."
Once bath time is over, just squeeze out the excess water and throw Blooming Bath in the dryer. It’s durable, easy to clean and quick drying. The Blooming Bath is available in pink, blue and yellow and sells at bloomingbath.com.

Blooming Bath sales for 39.99$

Oh by the way the Blooming Bath was the brainchild of DAD and former cartoonist for the Seattle Times, Eric Devericks. Blooming Bath is headquartered in Southern California and sells the Blooming Bath online at BloomingBath.com. You can find Blooming Bath's Facebook HERE and Twitter HERE.

Baby Beehaven Swingin' Smart Review and GiveAway!

I love love Love this product!!

 The awesome people over at Baby Beehaven sent me this nifty swing cover called the Swingin' Smart. This past August we threw our oldest daughter Katie's 7th birthday party at the park and my mother wanted to swing Gracie but we didn't want germs to attack her as she was still a little one and the fact those swings look uncomfortable so we wrapped her blanket around the parts of the swing she would be touching for comfort and safety so when I seen this little gold nugget I was ubber excited! We can now easily wrap the swing cover around the swing and we're good to go! It's washing machine friendly, it has little loops in the front to attach toys and comes with a handy matching bag to store it in as well!! 

Here's the real "dirt" on playgrounds—studies show they can be more germ-infested than a public restroom! Like popular shopping cart and high chair covers, this portable bucket seat protector is a must-have for the swingin' set.

• Easy Velcro attachment to bucket seats and chains
• Washable fabric to safeguard against germs.
• Soft padding warms or cools seat
• Reversible, two-sided design
• Rings keep toys close and secure.
• Convenient, re-usable tote for take-along ease and storage

The Swingin' Smart sales for  $39.99 + Shipping

Do NOT attach to playpen, crib, or car seat due to possible risk of entanglement injury. DO NOT LEAVE BABY UNATTENDED. NEVER leave baby unattended in swing at any time. Intended ONLY for use with commercial bucket swings.

Here are some photos of Miss Gracie using her Swingin' Smart in a bucket swing at the park!

*Mommy Approved*

I'm happy to announce that we is giving away one Swingin' Smart Swing Cover to one of our awesome readers!!

ChunksBabyJunk Review and GiveAway!!

I was recently contacted my Heidi the Creator/Owner of ChunksBabyJunk to review her Sippy Cup Strap.

I chose the "Princess Rockstar" Sippy Cup Strap because (duh) my girls are Princesses AND Gracie abuses her drink-ware more then a rockstar abuses their guitars!! I really love this product and i really love the idea of using it on the stroller, when my oldest daughter was a baby  it was beyond annoying having to pick up a thrown sippy cup every few minutes while walking the mall or events then having to find the restroom to wash the sippy cup Or the dreaded fear of her trowing it and hitting a stranger!! 

Heidi is a SAHM with a brilliant product!!

This is a great Sippy Strap for all the sippy cup throwing toddlers out there!

*Mommy Approved*

This durable Sippy Strap is made of a double layer of ribbon, metal D-ring, velcro and a removable suction cup to make it very versatile.

Places to use with the suction cup:
*Certain Tables
*Car Windows
*Plastic High Chair Trays

Places to use without the suction cup:
*Strollers
*Shopping Carts
*Wooden High Chairs
*Car Seats
*Hiking Backpacks

It is 15" long with suction cup attached and the piece that wraps around the sippy cup, bottle or toy is 11" long.

To wash, remove the suction cup, wash by hand and lay flat to dry.

Facts about the Suction Cup:
-It holds up to 25lbs
-It has a small tab to pull to release. So your little one can't pull up the suction cup when the tab is faced away from them.

These are all handmade so I can take custom orders!! They also make Fun & Unique baby shower gifts.

**Suction cup won't stick to all tables**
**Parental supervision required. Do not let baby play with Sippy Strap, it is not a toy**

I'm happy to announce We are giving away one Sippy Cup Strap of your choice to one of our awesome readers!!

Enter through the Rafflecoper and leave me a comment telling me which Sippy Cup Strap you would pick!
