Bob the Builder Dino Dig DVD Review

Can we Build It? Yes We Can! I think that is so great about the Bob the Builder shows that he is so positive and overcomes what ever obstacles that he comes across. We have contractors in our family that paint, build and are Mr. Fix Its so it makes me adore Bob even more. My son loves to dance to the theme song.

He can't read yet but he always turns a DVD over to look at! Too cute!


What I liked about this DVD is that is had dinosaurs!  We love dinos around here and it made this DVD even more fun! I like the sharing and learning with Bob the Builder and his friends. In this DVD they are building an amusement park when their digging around uncovers bones from the past. Its a really cute one. I love the soft colors of the Bob the Builder cartoons. I look forward to watching more Bob the Builder with my son when the next DVD is available. You can but this DVD at Best Buy, Walmart and Amazon.

He Thinks Hes a Big Boy

18 months old wearing Daddy's shoes.

I am having one of the sentimental days where I can believe how big my son has gotten. Every experienced parent tells you as a new parent savor it, time flies by and they will grown up faster than you think. I thought I was and try my best to it just seems he thinks he is a big boy! He wears his Dads shoes around the house, he wants to walk around on his own places (no more insisting Mama carries him) and he wants to sit in a regular chair. The cute part is the mimicking he does. He will grab the phone and jibber jabber then yell BubBye! He always wants to use my pen and note pad (He picks up on my listing habits!) and he knows how to switch the DVDs in the DVD player and change the mode on the remote so he can see his movie, and hes only 19 months old! Who is this mini man who now tells me No and shakes his head, who carries what he wants me to buy him in the store (he had a large can of spaghetti O's, a pack of fruit snacks and a pack of cookies all in his arms at the grocery store the other day) and who no longer needs a Baba to soothe him to sleep. Where is the tiny needy baby that I used to carry around the house!

My little man at 3 months old. The flash always bugged him!

Eco Lunch Gear Reusable Snack Bags Review and Giveaway


I have been on a personal mission to stop with so many plastic bags, paper towels and plastic bottles. Each time I find a new product to help with my mission I am so pleased! Before my son was born I did not realize how much plastic waste I created. Being a mom now I seem to think more of the health of the planet and my ability to change things. Plus my son bites, grabs and tries to rip anything he gets his hands on.

The ones we reviewed. You get to pick your own pattern if you win!



Eco Lunch Gear reusable snack bags and sandwich wraps are great in helping me stop my plastic waste. They are easier to clean then some other brands since you can open them all the way to wipe them clean. On the other hand it also means my little guy can open it up all the way to shake out what ever is in the bag. He is figuring out that part though and tries his best to keep his snacks closed in it. I also like the cloth napkins they would definitely help me to reduce my paper towel consumption while also matching my snack bags. They have cute designs too!
