I Love Winning!

I just want to say Thank You!! to Coupon Mommy of Three and Pixie Poppets! I won a free Pixie Poppets diaper from Coupon Mommy f Three's giveaway! I am really excited!
These look like great diapers, so expect a full review once I get the diaper prepped and we use it.
I chose Ocean, but it looks like those are out of stock so I went with Noir.

Has anyone out there tried Pixie Poppets? The name is just too cute!

The New Survivor- Stolen!

I couldn't resist posting this, because it is so true! My husband is an exception- he takes care of the kids, and helps me with anything any time that I ask. I married a sweetheart!

THE NEXT SURVIVOR SERIES
Six married men
will be dropped on an island with one car and
3 kids each for six weeks.

Each kid will play two sports
and take either music or dance classes.

There is no fast food.
Each man must
take care of his 3 kids; keep his assigned house clean,
correct all homework, complete science projects,
cook, do laundry, and pay a list of 'pretend' bills
with not enough money.

In addition, each man
will have to budget in money
for groceries each week.

Each man
must remember the birthdays
of all their friends and relatives,
and send cards out on time--no emailing.

Each man must also take each child to a doctor's appointment,
a dentist appointment
and a haircut appointment.

He must make one unscheduled and
inconvenient visit per child to the Urgent Care.

;He must also make cookies or cupcakes
for a social function.

Each man will be responsible for
decorating his own assigned house,
planting flowers outside, and keeping it presentable at all times.

The men will only have access to television
when the kids are asleep and all chores are done.

The men must shave their legs,
wear makeup daily,
adorn
themselves with jewelry,
wear uncomfortable yet stylish shoes,
keep fingernails polished,
and eyebrows groomed.

During one of the six weeks,
the men will have to endure severe abdominal cramps, back aches,
have extreme, unexplained mood swings but never once complain or slow down
from other duties.

They must attend weekly school meetings and
church, and find time at least once to spend the afternoon at the park
or a similar
setting..

They will need to read a book to the kids
each night and in the morning,
feed them, dress them,
brush their teeth and
comb their hair by 7:00 am.

A test will be given at the end of the six weeks, and each father will be
required to know all of the following information:
each child's
birthday,
height, weight,
shoe size, clothes size,
doctor's name,
the child's weight at birth,
length, time of birth,
and length of labor,
each child's favorite color,
middle name,
favorite snack,
favorite song,
favorite drink,
favorite toy,
biggest fear, and what they want to be when they grow up.

The kids vote them off the island based on performance..
The last man wins only if...
he still
has enough energy
to be intimate with his spouse
at a moment's
notice.

If the last man does win,
he can play the game over and over and over
again for the next 18-25 years,
eventually earning the right
to be called Mother!

After you get done laughing,
send this to as many females as
you think will get a kick out of it and
as many men as you think can handle it.
Just don't send it back to me....
I'm going to bed. ______________

My Rockin Green Review

Well, I have to say that Rockin Green is just as good as everyone says! Definitely worth the cost, in my opinion.

When we started, I had just began to notice that my diapes had a really strong smell after they were used. Not ammonia, but just really strong pee smell. I now realize that the Tide I was using on my cloth was causing build up. Within two washes, my diapers were back to smelling like nothing, even after using them for overnights on my little super soaker! I am so happy, to say the least, that I got Rockin' Green when I did. It really is amazing.

The Rockin Green was actually working after the first time that I rocked a soak. I got the bag free, but now I don't think I can go back to my regular detergent! I am beginning to wonder if there are any other soaps out there that are just as good as Rockin Green. I am not really one to try and fix something that isn't broken, though, so I may just stick with Rockin' Green! Too bad they came out with new scents before I got to try Lavender Vanilla, though! Lavender is my all-time favorite scent.

Britax Giveaway on Two of a Kind!

Britax car seats are some of the best available. These car seats have been a favorite of mine, and my little guy (at 16 pounds) is almost too big for his current infant seat.

You can find the Britax website here www.britaxusa.com for all your car seat and booster seat needs.
You can also enter the give away on Two of a Kind here: http://www.twoofakindworkingonafullhouse.com/2010/04/ride-safely-with-britax-advocate-cs.html

Good luck, but even if you don't win, you should consider purchasing a Britax for the best in car seat safety.

Musical Barn Giveaway on Two of a Kind!

The barn is a Baby Genius product that can be found here if you want to buy it: http://babygenius.com/toys.html

Barns are one of the best toys, in my opinion, especially for little ones just learning more about the world around them.

Good luck everyone!

Contest on Breatfeed, Babywear, Clothdiaper Blog!

There is an amazing contest for a Sakura ring sling on www.breastfeedbabywearclothdiaper.com
I love my slings. They really do make life a lot simpler since I work online and need to have my hands free to type. So far, my collection is really simple, and I don't have a ring sling yet. You can actually purchase a ring sling at www.momsmilkboutique.com, too. They are a little pricey, but worth every cent.

Contest on Mom of 3!

There is an awesome giveaway at http://www.couponmommyof3.com/2010/04/pixie-poppits-cloth-diapers-review-and.html for three winners!

The actual product is found here: http://www.newagenappies.com.au/index.shtml

I love pocket diapers for overnight, even though we are a fitted crew during the day. The Pixie Poppets have cute colors, too. I love the Passion Pink, but I don't think that would look too good on my baby boy, so I will just have to stick to Noir and Ocean.

Good luck everyone!

Enter the Fresh Baby Giveaway!

I just entered a Fresh Baby giveaway on J. Leigh Designs...http://www.jleighdesignz.com/2010/04/fresh-baby-so-easy-baby-food-kit-review.html#comment-form
I would LOVE to always feed my little ones homemade, fresh baby foods but the selection of fresh fruits available isn't always what I want it to be. Veggie selection is great in my area, though, and we can't wait on the garden to start producing!
You can find Fresh Baby here: http://www.freshbaby.com for great ideas on making your own amazing baby food (and yummy grown up food!).

Woot! Free Stuff in the Mail Today!

Today I got my *free* Rockin' Green that I won from Dirty Diaper Laundry! Thanks DDL and Sweetbottoms Baby Boutique! They sent Monkey Snacks, and it smells amazing. I can't wait to soak my diapes. This really came at a perfect time because I have been having those terrible strong smelling diapers, and need to rock a soak asap.
I also got a free diaper and 15 wipes from Rearz, via Franklin Goose! The wipes are amazing, brightly colored and super thick. Love free stuff!!
