Since baby Addy was born in the winter I made sure I had a lot of blankets to swaddle her. I was worried about her getting cold so I always made sure to swaddle her and she seems to love being swaddled. After using many swaddling blankets, I was drawn to muslin blankets. Most recently I discovered that JJ Cole has muslin blankets! I was pleasantly surprised at this because I know JJ Cole creates wonderful quality products!We received their … [Read more...]

I have thoroughly enjoyed my ambassadorship with Earth's Best but as of the end of June it is coming to an end.

I tell everyone I know about products that Earth's Best offers!I know how much I have enjoyed this ambassadorship, but I (and Earth's Best) wants to hear from YOU! We want to know what you've loved about this program, … [Read more...]

With baby Addy getting so close to the teething stage I have been on the lookout for an organic, all-natural teething gel. I found a tube of Orajel tucked in a drawer the other day and I threw that out as soon as I could  and have been on a search. Little did I know it was right underneath my nose...in the wonderful products from Earth's Best!The Organic Teething Gel from Earth's Best is non-medicated, and non=habit forming. It SAFELY comforts … [Read more...]

Now that summer is here we have been out and about quite often. We love going out and enjoying the beautiful, warm days. With two little ones, we have a lot of things that we need to take with us when we go even to on the shortest of trips (like to the mall). I have been through several diaper bags in the past few years and it's rather difficult to find one that meets all of your needs as a mama. Not only are their certain needs that the bag must … [Read more...]

If you remember, I posted about the Go Green Get Fit Challenge that many green bloggers are taking on. Have you joined in? I pasted my program goals below just to reference them in how I am doing. Last week was the first week and it was so hard to find times to walk! It is definitely an adjustment to make time for exercise when you have little ones. I actually did not meet my goal with this last week. The times I walked though I walked one mile. … [Read more...]

Good smellin' babies just have a way of making my heart melt. There is just something about holding a baby that has that fresh, clean baby scent. In the past we've used many organic/natural products that are great for our babies but the one thing they are missing is the scent that I love. I am more than willing to miss out on this if it means the products are safe for my baby, but with Live Clean Baby I've found safe products that also have that … [Read more...]

New Earth’s Best Organic Fruit and Grain Purees hit shelves last month! These purees are a delicious blend of organic fruit and hearty whole grains in a unique, portable, squeezable pouch perfect for babies 6 months and older. In fact, I love keeping these in the diaper bag for snacks on the go for our 23 month old! The fiber in whole grains helps baby stay satisfied longer after meals and snacks and each variety contains 45% of the daily … [Read more...]

This might be a boring WW to some of you, but it's a big part of my life. I work outside of the house four days each week. Every day that I am at work this sign is a big part of my day. You see, I pump three times a day when I am at work so that baby Addy can have breast milk the next day that I am gone. I have only given baby Addy breast milk and hope that I'll never have to give her formula. So...this sign is important to me. When this is one … [Read more...]

Cloth diapering has become a part of my life in a way I never thought it would! I LOVE cloth and have become quite the addict. My cloth preferences have changed a bit and I have adjusted and become no so picky like I was in the beginning. I used to only want aplix closure all-in-one diapers. Hubby still prefers those but I have expanded our stash and I now also love pocket diapers with snaps! I love trying new diapers so I was thrilled when I … [Read more...]

As I have mentioned we are getting ready to start feeding baby Addy foods. Scary, I know!

As we get closer to giving baby Addy jarred foods I have been researching more and more about what foods are going to be best for her. The benefits of Vitamin C in the development of a young child are numerous. Vitamin C is a vital nutrient for a growing baby because it is required for the growth and maintenance of healthy skin and red blood cells. In addition, it helps build collagen, which forms connective tissue that binds muscles, bones, and … [Read more...]

My husband and I have quite the little snacker on our hands with our little guy. LA is ALWAYS wanting snacks so we have to carefully select what we can buy to keep around the house. We were at my sister-in-law's house yesterday and they had some popular cheddar crackers that LA seemed to eat endless amounts of. I wondered if there was a healthier option and I came across something from one of my favorite companies: Earth's Best!The Earth's Best … [Read more...]
