Rite Aid #Tugaboos & Vera Bradley Sweepstakes! #ad

I am so excited to have this opportunity to have had the opportunity to review Rite Aid Tugaboos diapers as part of this sponsored campaign!

We go through a ton of diapers and as E grows, her needs change, whether it be the diaper size, absorbency or fit. Brands that have worked for her when she was a newborn may not work the same for her now. 

We recently had the opportunity to try Rite Aid Tugaboos Diapers in a size 4 which fit infants and todlers from 22-37 lbs. We are happy with our current brand but I am always open to trying new, quality diapers that are sold at a reasonable price. Rite Aid Tugaboos diapers have recently been improved for added leakage protection and faster absorption. Some of the key features of Tugaboos diapers include:

• Soft stretchable waist & side panels
• Excellent leakage protection
• Hypoallergenic inner liner
• Cottony soft feel

Earth's Best Chlorine Free #Baby Wipes {Review} #Sponsored

Thank you Earth's Best for providing me with Earth's Best Chlorine Free Baby Wipes to review as part as the Earth's Best Preferred Blogger program! 

Baby Wipes are one of the essentials when having child and if you are a parent, we all know that not all baby wipes are created equal! I recently posted about our experience with Earth's Best Chlorine Free Diapers and this month, we also had the opportunity to try Earth's Best Chlorine Free Baby Wipes to review as part as the Earth's Best Preferred Blogger program!           

Earth's Best Chlorine Free Baby Wipes are unscented and moistened with a gentle, natural lotion containing aloe vera and vitamin E. The hypoallergenic wipes have a super soft cloth like texture which is gentle enough for baby's delicate skin, hands and face. I received pop-up tubs which come in a 72-count but the wipes are also available in a pop-up tub refill, travel pack or TOTS Flushable Wipes.

Earth's Best Chlorine Free Diapers {Review} #Sponsored

Thank you Earth's Best for providing me with Earth's Best Chlorine Free Diapers to review as part as the Earth's Best Preferred Blogger program! 

When you have and infant or toddler, diapers are a necessity (unless you use elimination communication). As and Earth's Best Preferred Blogger, I was recently provided with Earth's Best TenderCare Chlorine Free Diapers in a size 5. We had tried Earth's Best diapers in the past and had a great experience with them but we were mainly using cloth diapers at the time. This time around we are using disposable diapers most of the time because it's more convenient for our family.

Earth's Best Chlorine Free Disposable Diapers are available in newborn to size 6 sizes and are made from non-chlorine bleached materials and contain natural absorbant material such as corn and wheat. Earth's Best Diapers are made with fewer petro-chemicals. The diapers feature breathable sides, a moisture barrier cuff, refastenable tabs and are free of Latex, dye, and perfumes! The size 5 diapers come in a 26 count package and are for babies up to 27+ lbs.

With Netflix, You can watch your favorite TV shows and movies anywhere, any time you want because Netflix is available on hundreds of devices, including our Roku! We also downloaded the free Netflix app on our iPhone which can be quite handy!

DaddyScrubs Certified New Daddy Gift Set {Review & #Giveaway}

A huge thanks to DaddyScrubs for providing us with a Certified New Daddy Gift Set for review!

A few month's ago we found out my sister-in-law and brother-in-law were expecting their first child! Of course, My husband and I are very excited for them and with my husband being close to his brother, Mark, we wanted to give a gift to celebrate fatherhood! We recently had the absolute pleasure of reviewing the "What Daddy Bear Loves" & Daddy Bear set from DaddyScrubs so we couldn't wait to give Mark the Certified New Daddy Gift Set!

The Certified New Daddy Gift Set includes a new daddy t-shirt, a custom picture frame magnet, and a pen set with pocket protector and 4 pens! The t-shirt is available in sizes M, L, XL, or 2XL.

We presented Mark with the Certified New Daddy Gift Set at a family gathering. Everyone in the room at the time commented on what a nice set it was! Mark first tried on the shirt, size 2XL, which was pretty true to size. The 100% preshrunk cotton shirt was very breathable and comfortable, not stiff like some t-shirts can be. I think the shirt would be nice to wear in the delivery room, under a set of DaddyScrubs! It would also be a fun shirt for him to wear at my sister-in-law's baby shower. I actually liked the shirt so much that I went and purchased the 2011 version for my husband. I think I might give it to him as a Father's Day gift!

Thank you VTech for providing us with the VTech InnoTab 2 Baby for review!

E's #FirstFit with @HUGGIES® Little Movers Slip-On® Diapers!

Thank you Mom Central Consulting for providing me with HUGGIES® Little Movers Slip-On® Diapers for review. 

Once your child hits a milestone such as crawling or walking, you start a whole new ball game! Finding a diaper that holds up to all of that movement is very important. You might find that the diapers you used on your child when he or she was immobile may not work for them now that they are able to crawl and/or walk. 

HUGGIES® Little Movers Slip-On® Diapers are designed for standing and newly walking babies. We recently had the opportunity to try out HUGGIES® Little Movers Slip-On® Diaper Pants in both a size 4 (22-37 lbs) and size 5 (27 lbs). These diapers are made with stretchy sides and require no adjustments for a great fit which is one o the reasons I was interested in trying them with E!

Baby K'tan {Review & #Giveaway} #BabyExtravaganza

Thank you Baby K'tan for providing me with a carrier for review!

I've talked about babywearing on the blog before and currently own or have owned a few different carriers which include soft structured carriers, slings, mei tais and soft stretchy wraps. When E was an infant, I loved using soft stretchy wraps! The first carrier I ever owned was a popular stretchy wrap but unfortunately, I had to stop using stretchy wraps because she outgrew them and when I would wear her, the wrap would sag. 

A few months back I heard about the Baby K'tan Carrier, a soft cotton baby carrier that is a blend of a sling, wrap and carrier. The K'tan provides the positions and benefits of all three types of carriers and can be worn comfortably with infants and toddlers (from birth to 3 years) in multiple positions.

BabyBjörn Travel Crib Light 2 {#Giveaway} #BabyExtravaganza

Kim of Party of 5 recently received the BabyBjörn Travel Crib Light 2 for the Baby Extravaganza Event which is being co-hosted by Momma T and Family, Rambles of a SAHM, My Four Littles and Party of 5! You can read about the BabyBjörn Travel Crib Light 2 below!

Do you travel a lot? We do mostly in the Spring/Summer. We have a place in the Poconos and love spending family time there. All of my Husbands's family own property as well as my parents so it's one big giant family affair. We don't have our own place there just yet so it's a tad tight for sleeping quarters.

My kids all share the bedroom with the 2 sets of bunk beds. Well, honestly my son usually stays at my parents or his cousins place so it's just the girls. When they were little we had a ginourmous pack n play that was a pain to set up, especially if the girls fell asleep.

With the new babe we knew we needed a much simpler solution. Low and behold, I came across the BABYBJÖRN Travel Crib Light 2.

JJ Cole Urban Bundle Me & Caprice Diaper Bag {Review & #Giveaway} #BabyExtravaganza

The following JJ Cole review was written by Kim of Party of 5 for the Baby Extravaganza Event which is being co-hosted by Momma T and Family, Rambles of a SAHM, My Four Littles and Party of 5! You can check out her review below!

I am a busy Mom of 3 kids, soon to be 4! We are often on the go, weather it be Baseball practice, games, dance class or finding cool places to take the kids. During the cooler months it's hard to keep a new baby bundled up the correct way without doing the MAJOR No-No's. It is NOT safe to have baby in a coat in either the infant seat or a car seat. To solve that problem we use the JJ Cole Urban Bundle Me!

The Happiest Baby Guide to Great Sleep Review

We were really lucky, E was a great sleeper as an infant. She didn't like to sleep in her bassinet but slept soundly in our Rock n' Play Sleeper until she was nine months old. During the dy she would nap in her bouncer and usually got down late morning and later afternoon but honestly, her naps were pretty sporadic but I didn't mind.

When we started bed sharing it all wen down hill from there. She was no longer a sound sleeper and the lack of sleep routine was starting to effect our sleep as well. 

I couldn't wait to start reading The Happiest Baby Guide to Great Sleep by Dr. Harvey Karp. About Dr. Harvey Karp: 

"Harvey Karp, M.D., is a nationally celebrated pediatrician, child development specialist, and children's environmental health advocate. He is on the faculty of the USC School of Medicine and a fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Dr. Karp's books and DVDs, The Happiest Baby on the Block, The Happiest Toddler on the Block, and The Happiest Baby Guide to Great Sleep, teach parents breakthrough techniques to reduce infant crying, boost sleep, build toddler patience, and stop tantrums. Millions of parents have benefited from his advice, including celebrities such as Madonna, Michelle Pfeiffer, Larry David, Jewel, and Pierce Brosnan. Translated into more than twenty languages and taught across America by thousands of Happiest Baby educators, the enormous popularity of Dr. Karp's work has made him one of the most read—and most trusted—pediatricians in history."

Joovy Caboose Too Ultralight {Review} #BabyExtravaganza

Before I had E, I never thought that I would have any use for a double stroller. I mean, I wasn't a mother of two and wasn't giving birth to twins so a single stroller would suit us, right? Well, On the the day E was born, eleven hours later my nephew Ryan entered the world as well. Yes, That's right, they were born on the same day!

I'll sometimes babysit Ryan and my family frequently attends events, parties, and has outings together so I quickly came to realize how convenient it would be to own a double stroller for both E and Ryan and something I could use withe my nephew Angel as well.
