Teething. The answer!


Teething is a nightmare! Every single toy & teether Colin has, has been put in his mouth and chomped on because of this process we call teething. Not one teether we've bought has done justice. He hates them all, they don't fit in his small mouth, he doesn't have the patience to hold it because it weighs the same as a toy.There just hasn't been answer for us - until now!!  Chewy Tubes P's & Q's . We have the Q and it's a life saver!!

Colin LOVES his Chewy Tube Q!
 

Designed specifically for practicing biting and chewing skills the Q is Colin's favorite! Made of a FDA approved thermo-elastic polymer material. As well as latex-free.They do not contain any PVC, lead or phthalates.We've come to learn that where Colin goes the Q must go! Its so easy for him to hold. He picks it up all by his self and chews away. So if your sitting at how with your little one thinking of the next teether you'll need to go buy because all of the other ones haven't done the job. Please, Please go get the Chewy Tubes P's & Q's. Purchasing directly from their website or one of their many Distributors

Lunch time a new way; Buddy Fruits


Colin loves to eat, ( 8 oz since he was 2 weeks old ). Now that we've started solid feeding he's even enjoying eating more! With all my worries about added sugars and preservatives I had no idea what to do.  So I came a crossed Buddy Fruits!

Buddy Fruits are Pure Blended Fruit To Go
No preservatives, coloring,additives,fat,genetic modifications, added water, dairy or gluten.



Even though kids are supposed to use the pouch to eat the fruit out of it, I just pour the pouch in a bowl and Colin LOVES IT! Each pouch contains fruit THAT'S IT! No added sugar, nothing but the fruit! It's any absolute mandatory diaper bag must have. Buddy Fruits come in so many varieties! Although Colin has come to love the Apple Cinnamon, Buddy Fruit comes in a variety of flavors. Apple & Strawberry, Mango Passion & Banana, Apple & Banana, Apple & Multifruit, and Apple & Cinnamon. The pouch has a twist off top which makes it so much easier to screw it back on and save the rest for later!

Although we haven't tried them yet but do plan on it. Buddy fruit offers Pure Fruit Bites too. Fruit snacks made with 100% fruit. No sugar added! Buddy Fruit bites come in four flavors. Apple, Raspberry, Orange, and Pomegranate & Acai.

[To purchase Buddy Fruits, check out Buddy Fruits , or Publix, Walgreens, Wegmans, Piggly Wiggly, Diapers.com or Amazon.com]

Buddy fruits have really come in handy when we're running around during the day and Colin needs a snack or lunch! We just twist the pouch and pour in a bowl. Then the smiling begins!!

ItzBEEN Giveaway!

Products have come from all over. From bottles and soap, to toys and bedding.


But the ultimate product is the Itzbeen, and for one of you we have one!

I can't tell you how many times I forgot the last time Colin's diaper got changed, when he had a bottle last (he loves eating and I always lose track), or when he needs his next dose of medicine ;when hes sick. The Itzbeen completely changed all of those forgetful moments. Even when dad comes home it's so much easier to fill him in on all "the last" by just checking the Itzbeen. The features are what makes the Itzbeen amazing!

Breastfeeding moms have the Right and Left nursing reminder. Just flip the switch to the side you've last fed from. The changing, feeding, and sleep timers are so convenient. All you have to do is click the button once you've changed a diaper, gave a bottle ,or when your little one wakes up from a nap. The timer keeps track of the rest! The extra button can be for what ever you need, I always use it for medications. When the last time Colin got Orajel ( since teething has taken over)  or his last dose of Zantac (he also has reflex). It's just a huge life saver to be able to rely on the Itzbeen rather than the old " I think it was..."  On top of all of the timers, the alarm feature is what made me love this product even more. Just set the timer for how long you need to - play time, tummy time, anything and the alarm sounds off. The light features are beyond helpful when you rummaging around at night. The night light at the top is bright enough to see in the room, yet soft enough it's not disruptive.The back light lights up the entire screen making it possible to hit the buttons after your done with a night feeding, or diaper. The Itzbeen isn't just an awesome around the house must have, but because of the back clip you can attach it to the diaper bag and go! Making outings even better.

The Itzbeen is offered in 3 different colors, Pink, Blue, and Green. As well as multiple packages. You have the option of buying one($24.99), or a twin pack($48.99)! Buy directly on their website, or retailers (Babies R Us, Target, Amazon)
