Pampers Kandoo Flushable Toilet Wipes Review and Giveaway

With 2 boys in the house it seem like someone is always going to the bathroom or needing to have their hands cleaned. A product we found that can help us with all of our body cleaning needs is Pampers Kandoo Flushable Toilet Wipes and their foaming hand sanitizer. My 4 year old always wants help when he is finished going #2 (I know TMI but it is what it is, we all poop) because he doesn't feel like he can get himself clean enough. My husband and I encourage him that he is doing a great job, but the boy knows when it is just not good enough. He wants to be clean and feel fresh. Do you blame him?

We needed a solution to this and fast, he will be 5 in less than 6 months! As soon as we introduced the Kandoo wipes to him he was sold. They were not "baby wipes" like his baby brother uses, he refused those and they are not flushable anyhow. They are "big boy" toilet wipes that will thoroughly clean him and moisturize at the same time. Kandoo Flushable Wipes also come in other scents like Magic Melon, Funny Berry and Sensitive (unscented and hypoallergenic). The hand sanitizer is a handy little bottle that we can pop in the diaper bag or my purse for those emergency situations where soap and water are just not available.

Here's what they sent us. Coupons too :)

These products are a practical and affordable solution for anyone in the potty training and beyond stage. Check them out here.

Boba Baby Carrier Review Birthday Bash

The bigger the baby gets the harder it is to tote him around, it is a fact. I was struggling to carry Baby L around because I was using a baby carrier that I had received as a gift when I had JJ over 4 years ago. It was a pretty good one but over time it seemed like the fabric was stretching and not to mention Baby L is way heftier than JJ ever was! When I had Baby L in the carrier it felt like he was always tipping forward and so that meant I was leaning forward and it was killing my back. I could not carry him for long so it was driving me nuts. He is happy and content as long as someone is toting him around. I was in the market for a new carrier and wanted something that I knew was going to last. I had heard about the Boba Baby Carrier from a friend and I wanted one BAD.

The Boba Baby Carrier has saved my back and my sanity. They are designed to carry your baby or child close to you without digging into your shoulders or making you hunch over. When I first put on the Boba Carrier I was shocked at how soft the material was and how easy it was to adjust. It easily clips around your waist for so much support on your back, the fabric is wide so the support is fantastic. I just pulled up the shoulder straps, I buckle the little clip in front and we were are off! My son loved to be carried all afternoon and by the end of the day my back was not even aching, no joke. As your child gets older and their little legs start to dangle, the Carrier has foot straps attached. They just slide their little foot in like they are riding a horse. Genius I tell you!

Here is a product about Boba Baby Carriers from their web site:

• accommodates children 15-45 lbs / 7-20 kg
• one size fits most adults
• front and back carry
• Boba Organic collection made with GOTS and OE100 certified 100% organic cotton and organic Texas cotton lining
• Boba Classic collection made with 100% natural brushed cotton
• Instructions included
• high density waist and shoulder strap foam
• removable foot straps for extra leg/hip support
• high back for better overall support
• removable hood

Breeze

Boba Baby is also taking steps to be Eco-Friendly, and that makes this Mama happy. I love it when a company wants to make a great product and help make the Earth a little greater in the process.

Here is how they are doing that:

The introduction of our new Organic Boba Carrier made locally in Boulder, Colorado with both GOTS and OE100 certified organic cotton.

NAP, Inc. Management team's commitment to using bicycles for at least 50% of their local transportation needs. We are lucky to live in Boulder which boasts nearly 100 miles of linked bike paths within city limits.

All packaging supplies are now being recycled or donated for re-use

We are now using virtual business cards! No more wasted paper.  

Organic Walnut

Now with all of the back saving and baby toting I am now doing I would like to look stylish while doing it. If I am going to be wearing this thing on the outside of my clothes A LOT, I want it to look good! The Boba Baby Carrier is not only comfortable but oh-so-stylish. They have their classic line with Twilight, Earth, Breeze and Tweet, just to name a few. They also carry an Organic line with Chestnut, Pine and Walnut.

Here is the one we chose...TWEET!!!

We chose the Tweet and I am so happy with it. I have received so many compliments and questions of "Where did you get that" that I know not only is the Boba Baby Carrier practical and comfortable, but it also is the perfect accessory to any outfit. After your cute baby of course (wink wink). I recommend everyone get a Boba Baby Carrier, your back will thank you later.

Kidzikoo Review and Giveaway

With the summer coming up right around the corner we will need to stay hydrated to beat the heat, yes even in Washington state it gets hot. lol After running around all day in the warm weather drinks can get warm and who wants to drink "pee warm" water (that's what my Mom calls it). The solution to that is the Kidzikoo , a stylish insulated bottle or sippy cup cover. Not only does the Kidzikoo keep your child's cold drink cold but it also will keep his warm bottles warm. One of my favorite things about this handy little koozie is it absorbs water and condensation. When your child lingers with that sippy cup full of water you don't have to even have to about those annoying water marks on your furniture. The fun thing about the Kidzikoo is you won't worry about who's sippy cup is who's at your next play date, you know your kids cup will be the one with the cute koozie on it. That is until everyone asks you where you got it, but not to worry they come in 5 really cute unisex prints.

Here are all of the prints to chose from!

Here is a picture of my little one enjoying his nice cold cup of water in his KIDZIKOO!

If you are still not sold on the Kidzikoo let me give you one more great fact about these beauties.... they are machine washable! Kidzikoo is a new product invented by a Mommy who came up with this idea 8 months ago and look at her now, she is running a booming business!


Keep your baby or toddler feeling "cool" all summer long and get your Kidzikoo today.

PetCakes Review and Giveaway Birthday Bash

Have you heard about PetCakes? I hadn't until recently but apparently they are all the rage with little kids! PetCakes are plush a pet that looks like a cupcake. Yummy. They each come with a frosting hat, sit in a cupcake wrapper and they each have their own back story. How creative. They also each have a clever name and we got Nutty Nicky, Roco Coco, Honey Cakes and Bamboo Berry. They are part of the Series 2 limited Collection Forest Animals. They also have a Series 1 and Minis Collection and all of them are really cute. The boys have enjoyed taking them out of their wrapper and putting them back wherever they want. What I like about PetCakes is that they are imaginative play, there are no rules. Petcakes have fought the Superheros at our house and have also been "eaten" for a delicious snack. They do seem a little more on the girlie side if you ask my husband, but I see nothing wrong with a little cupcake play in their lives!Roco Coco

Nutty Nicky

Bamboo Berry

Honey Cakes

Petcakes is the perfect gift to bring to the next kids birthday party you go to, you know we all go to a lot of those these days. You can get them one or even all four from the series. They would be the envy of all of their friends, especially some of the little gals I know!

Win One of the PetCakes Characters from Series 1
