The Real reason for Memorial Day!

Some people have forgot what this day is actually for. Its not for camping, BBQs and drinking and partying. Nope I know that is crazy right? NO! It is the day remember the people who fought for us and our loved ones to make this country free! Its about our Flag flying high and knowing they are the reason why. The brave, the strong, the men and women in our military that fight for us when we cant or wont. They are proud to be out there keeping us safe. Some come home and some never will. But they are all heros and will be forever in our minds and hearts!!! So remember what Memorial day is really about! Shed a tear, thank the people  that served our country and remember the people who have passed before us!

 Always loved this poem and it fits perfectly!
This one honestly brought tears to my eyes. It is so true!
This one is great love it!!
This is a song my daughters class sang for our military and it will make you cry. It is awesome!

I had to get my 3 year old one of their cute Petal Dresses. I got the Butterscotch and chocolate petal dress and it is so cute. It is a nice material that my daughter can use during summer or winter. I love how soft it is and so does my daughter. The hemline is adorable and fun. I love the Bright bold colors. It washes great and had no stretching or fading. Best thing is the price they are only $8. I mean at that price I can get one for all my girls. This dress has been complimented on so many time already. Every time she wears it people say how cute it is and when I time them the price they want to know where.

I definitely recommend all Happy Green Bee's products. I have tried a few of them and have love everyone of them. I love all natural and organic stuff and this is definitely one of the best places out there to get it. So head over and check out all their great stuff. You will be glad you did!

Get a Free Baby Diner & my review

So with 6 kids my house it always a mess. Dinner time is the worst. Really cant they eat over their plates or at least over the table?? Nope of course not! Crumbs and food everywhere. Then to top it off my 2 year old likes to dump her plate and give it to me saying she is done. Thanks kiddo. Over the years with all my kids throwing plates or bowls, dumping plates, or even plates magically slipping onto the floor all by themselves I have tried many plates and bowls to prevent that from happening. So far no luck! That's when Baby Diner came to my rescue.

Baby Diner is a gadget that turns any plate or bowl into a suction cup no slip plate. It has 2 suction cups on the bottom and 1 on the top. It is very easy to use. All you do is take the plate or bowl you want to use and press against the top suction cup and make sure it sticks then take it and stick it to the table or highchair and done. It is now stuck and wont move. This is a great idea because it saves money because you don't have to go out and buy like 5 of them you just need one or two and all the baby plates you already have work with it so for me that saves alot because I have alot of kids plates but none are slip proof but one so now I can make them all slip proof.

I used the Baby Diner with my 2 year old and she watched me put the whole thing together and put her food on it. She was getting her wheels a turning to figure out just what I was doing to her plate lol. So when she got in to eat she checked it out, then went to eating and then back to figuring this thing out. She was done eating and now it was time to give mom the plate oh wait it stuck. Lol she was like what the heck??!!! She looks at me and the other kids are laughing at her so now she thinks it is a game. Oh great! I must say the Bay Diner put up a great fight for about 15 minutes and then tadah here mommy!! She got it off.

Overall I am very impressed with the Baby Diner. It gave me time to get to her before the food hit the ground and made a huge mess. It definitely worked better than any of the other ones I used before. I definitely recommend it to anyone with little kids especially if plates become toys during feeding time.

Right now you can get a Free Baby Diner all you pay is Shipping. So head over and get your now before they are all gone!

Sid the Science kid review & giveaway end jun 18

With spring here and summer just around the corner, it makes a perfect time to teach your kids about sun safety and sunscreen and don't forget the crazy weather. Well what better way to help them understand then with one of their favorite characters Sid the Science kid. A new DVD is out called The Weather kid Sid . My family loves Sid and all his shows. Best of all its made by Jim Henson one of my favorites. So when we got the chance to watch the newest addition to Sid's movies we jumped at the chance. Sid is such a great show. It is a very educational show and my kids learn alot. Alot about science , nature and more.

The Weather kid Sid has a few episodes on it. The first one is the Sid’s Special Sunny Dad’s Day episode--Sid is excited to play soccer with his Dad outside but he’s not excited to lather up in sunscreen, because it takes way too long to put on! At school, Sid and his friends discover that sunscreen is a great way to protect your skin from the sun. And they also learn about the amazing ways the sun helps the Earth. This is perfect for summer and so fun to watch.

The next episode is Sid’s Rainy Play Date, Sid is supposed to have a play date outside, but the forecast calls for rain! Sid isn’t too happy and wonders if the rain knew he wanted to play outside? At school, Sid and his friends discover that rain actually comes from rain clouds! They also learn that rain is really important because it helps living things grow. This was great because right now Utah has had some crazy weather and that includes lots and lots of rain and we have been really getting sick of rain at least now the kids know what it helps and why it rains.

In Sid’s Cool Holiday, Sid loves celebrating the winter holidays where he lives, because it’s always sunny and warm. But this year, Sid and his family are visiting relatives where it’s chilly and cold. Sid wonders why it can’t be warm everywhere? At school, Sid discovers that temperatures are different all over the world! This one was great because my kids ask me all the time why is it so hot in Arizona and not in Utah. Why does it not snow in Arizona. So this helped them understand it alot better than me trying to explain it lol!

And in The Wind Did It Sid can’t figure out who messed up the pile of leaves he raked up in the backyard. At school, Sid and his friends discover that wind is strong enough to make sand dunes, waves, move sail boats, and even blow away a pile of leaves!

Overall my kids learned alot and enjoyed watching all the episodes. This is a great DVD to add to our Sid the Science Kid collection. I definitely think all kids should watch this. It is another preschool aged show but really depends on your kids all my kids love Sid. So head over and check it out!

We have a The Weather kid Sid to give to one lucky reader!

THE DINOSAUR TRAIN Review

Do your kids like watching trains? How about dinosaurs? Well my kids just discovered a new show that combines both of those things together. They love it! It is called Dinosaur Train and it airs on PBS Kids. It is a cute show that kids can learn and explore with the great dinosaur family the Pteranodon family. They are traveling all over from country to country and learning new stuff. It is a great preschool aged show but honestly even my 7 , 9 and 11 year old liked it. The cute characters and the stories are easy to understand but so interesting I even found myself getting into it. I love PBS for this reason they always have cute educational shows that my kids love and I dont mind them watching. We have watched Dinosaur Train quite a few times a week the last couple weeks. It has become a hit at our house. They cant wait to see what adventures they go on next. I definitely recommend tis adorable show!

Beginning Monday, May 24, PBS KIDS will be airing four new episodes of the hit CG-animated preschool series DINOSAUR TRAIN™ from The Jim Henson Company. Children of all ages can climb aboard the DINOSAUR TRAIN with Buddy and the entire Pteranodon family as they embark on a roaring, exploring, World Tour adventure in these new summer-themed vacation episodes. Airing May 24-27, the special week finds the family packing up and boarding the train to discover the wonderful variety of dinosaurs inhabiting the globe as they journey to Asia, Europe and Africa. Also joining this trip is a new character Gilbert, the conductor’s young nephew.

A little more info:
Synopses:

Ocean spray review & giveaway ends 6-11- closed

Tis the season for allergies and sinus problems. I have been suffering so bad with my allergies and sinus infections its crazy. I am on antibiotic, two allergy meds, sinus meds, and more. my 2 year old and my son are both suffering of severe sinuses right now too. So when Ocean contacted me about doing a review on Ocean saline nasal spray and Ocean Sinus Irrigation system and also the Ocean for kids. Now it couldn't of been a better time to try these out so of course I was all in for doing it.

When they arrived I immediately tried Ocean Saline Nasal Spray. It was easy to use just a spray up each nostril. It helped moisturize my dry stuffy nose. It made my nose feel so much better and less sore and dry. It has been a great help with all my other medicines.

The Ocean for kids my son wasn't thrilled about using it since he didn't like the draining down his throat ha ha. But I talked him into trying it and it really wasn't as bad as he thought and it helped his stuffiness and dryness in his nose which is very important for him because when his nose gets dry and allergies flare up he starts getting his nose bleeds. So this is a great thing to have for him. I also use it on my 2 year old. She has the opposite, the runny nose but it still helps by thinning the mucous and helping it drain and makes her feel better.

The last thing is the Ocean Sinus Irrigation system. When I first saw it and read the direction I thought oh boy this looks painful or uncomfortable and gross. But after a few more days of really suffering I thought what the heck something has to help so I tried it. It was very easy to use and wasn't really that messy to use either. My sinus are severely infected so it burned a little but it really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. It dint help clear it out some and it stayed moisturized for a while. It is something I definitely will use again.

Overall I was impressed with the products. I will be definitely using these in the future and recommending to anyone with sinus issues or allergies. So head over and check out Ocean's products.

I have a Ocean Complete Sinus Irrigation product to give one lucky reader.

1. Go to Ocean and tell me something you learned

Eden Home review

If you into the organic stuff or just love cute and great stuff well Eden Home has it all. I got the great opportunity to try out some of their stuff and when I went to the store I had in my mind this place is going to be expensive with a name like that and much to my surprise it was just the opposite. I got 8 things plus shipping for under $50. Now that for me is awesome. We live on a very tight budget in this family so every way I can get great stuff cheap I am happy.

The first thing I got was two cleaning supplies. I got the Natural Naked sponges a 2 pack and I got Natural Laundry Detergent-Stain Solution. Now with kids these come in so handy. My kids stain their cloths up so fast and I have tried everything out there to get them out. Well Eden Home's stuff really worked. It got 99% of the stains out compared to 10% with the other things I tried. I love that it is all natural and wont harm my kids skin and it is a great thing to add to my laundry room. The sponges are great because well I go through alot of sponges and some smell as soon as I open them and some fall apart easily these didn't smell and they have lasted a few weeks and still going strong. I love them!
The next two things I got were Organic Floral Girls Cami's by Under the Nile. I got a blue one for my 5 year old and a pink one for my almost 4 year old. I think these Cami's are adorable. They fit perfectly and will be great for this summer. I love that they are organic and natural. They will be a hit with some jeans, or cute little shorts or even a skirt. They are made tough and had made it through a few washes and still look brand new. They haven't stretched out or miss shaped. They look cute as ever! There are so many more Organic Baby Clothes I am thinking of getting for up coming summer outfits.
The next thing I got for my 7 year old. It is the Personalized Organic Garden in a Bag. This is such a great idea. It is a bag that contains seeds, soil and you grow it all in the bag. It has a cute flower on the outside to color and then a stick to hold your flower up when it gets tall. I thing this is a great gift for kids preschool age and up. I mean really what kid doesn't like to grow their own garden? They get so proud to see what they started with and see what it has become. Such a great thing!

The last thing I got well really is three things in one.I got the Dumping Mud Organic Kids Toys Gift Set. I got this for my 2 year old and 3 year old. It comes with my 2 year olds favorite gummy bears. We got the Blueberry Acai berry gummies and they are all natural and packed with antioxidants. They are made with all natural sweeteners. They taste so good even I loved them. Plus there was quite a few in the bag it last a couple days at my house and that is good. I mean I know if I let the kids they would of had them gone in matter of minutes but still ha ha.

It also comes with Max's Mud which my 3 year old is convinced is max & ruby's max lol. best thing with this is Not only is Max’s Mud is certified organic but it is also gluten-free, vegan, non-toxic, soy-free and corn-free, fragrance free but it is completely compostable and packaged in a reusable container. That is awesome! I hate the smells of some of the other playdohs so I was glad this was scent free. My kids loved playing with this and I felt safe knowing it had nothing harmful in it.

The last thing in the gift pack was the awesome Sprig Toys Dump Truck which is a BPA free plastic toy made from recycled milk cartons. That is cool. They love playing in the sand box with it and it really is a good size. So they can pick up plenty of sand and open the back and dump. I love that the back opens up and easily too. I love that it is plastic and covered with non toxic paints. It is a tough truck too. This is one of the kids favorites from Eden Home.

I know I got awesome deals and great products but they have more and more great deals. They have everything from home products, bathroom stuff, decorations, Organic baby clothes, Organic baby toys, Kids clothes, Great organic gift sets for baby,kids or adults. Gosh right with Fathers day right around the corner you can get Dad some great stuff at Eden Home so head over and check them out!

Eden Home is also having a GIVEAWAY FOR A $2,000 ORGANIC BABY SHOWER!!! Just go to their website and create a registry between April 1-June 30
