Cynthia Rowley Diapers

I never thought I would use the words Cynthia Rowley and diapers in the same sentence but it is true Cynthia Rowley has teamed up with Pamper to design some ADORABLE diapers. These limited edition diapers available only at Target are too cute for words. The first thing that popped into my mind when I saw them was how perfect for a diaper photo shoot. Lots of people love to do the naked baby diaper photo shoot and these diapers would look so sweet on your baby. The girl diapers come in a an adorable floral pastel pink or purple that are just too sweet for words. The boy version are very cute as well with stripes and plaids in  blues and browns. Plus for girls I love that if they are wearing a dress without a diaper cover these diapers still look cute! Did I mention they are Pampers brand dry max cruiser diapers so you know it’s a brand you can trust and now they look even cuter wearing diapers than before! Be sure to watch for them at your local Target store.

Adiri Bottles New & Improved

First of all I must admit I never tried the old Adiri bottles, but having tried the new ones I wish I had. As many of you know I went through a whole ordeal when I had to switch my baby to a bottle from breastfeeding. I tried several bottles before she would take one but I never tried Adiri. Adiri has just released a new and improved BPA free and polycarbonate bottle. The new bottle has an improved leak free filling cap, better durability, improved base for better flow control, and a petal valve to reduce air intake and colic. The new Adiri bottle comes in slow, medium and fast and retails for $14.99.  I got to try out the new Adiri bottle and I was very impressed, finally a bottle that actually seems to be like breastfeeding.  I switched to using a bottle because I had to for health reasons, not by preference so it is nice to know there are bottles made to replicate nursing making that transition for other moms in my position easier.

Switchflops the Sandal with Many Options

As you know I love shoes and I love to have different shoes for different outfits but that can take up a lot of room and cost a lot of money. Lindsay Phillips switchflops are a brilliant yet simple idea instead of changing your shoes simply change the strap. Each strap attaches to the shoe with velcro and can be easily changed out for a new strap. I love that the Switchflop comes in a variety of shoe styles from very casual to quite formal there is a shoe for every occasion. The number of straps is almost overwhelming and each one comes with a stylish button to accent the ribbons and patterns used. I was sent a pair of the Emma switchflops and I love them. I am really loving the exotic Laura print strap it is the perfect fun touch to complete any outfit. The sandals are comfortable and the styles limitless these are a fun pair of shoes to have. Be sure to check out all the fabulous options available.

Having Fun with Moon Dough

Since I have been laid up by this surgery it has been crazy trying to keep the kids occupied and not missing mommy. The Moon Dough Barn arrived just in time as a new a novel form of entertainment. We had Moon Sand in the past and it is a strictly outdoors activity. I hated the mess even though my kids loved it we went back to good old play doh. Now along comes Moon Dough and it is a major improvement on Moon Sand, dare I say we love it! Here are some of the reasons we love the new Moon Dough. It never dries out, that’s right is seriously never dries out. I can not tell you how much play dog we have wasted because the lid was not on tight and it dried up. It cleans up very easily even form carpet. Moon Dough is also hypo-allergenic and wheat free. The Barn is adorable! My girls had so much fun making the animals and it is something they can actually do by themselves. I have a feeling santa will be buying some of the other Moon Dough activity centers because my girls had that much fun with it. You can purchase Moon Dough at Target, Walmart, Toy R us, Amazon and many more.

Shoe Spectacular: Umi Children’s Shoes

Umi is another great maker of children’s shoes. They offer fashion forward choices and are one of the few places I have found knee high kids boots.

This year they have another fabulous collection for Fall including some great knee high boots once again. Both the Traverse and the Odessa boots look fabulous. Umi sent the Ballerina the Mary Jane style Taffeta shoes in brown. This adorable shoe is very versatile and can be worn with almost anything making it a good choice for your little girl.

I love organic fabrics for both me and my family. My kids have very sensitive skin so organic fabrics are much better for them to wear plus I always find them very sensitive for my delicate little girls. When I discovered B Nature I was excited by the adorable organic clothing they offered for little ones. I absolutely adore the bodysuit with skirt in pink pointell, so cute!!!! I know Little C would look adorable in it and it retails for just $24.

Simply Heinz: Back to Basics

As a mom I have become much more conscious of what I feed my kids, I want to make sure they eat healthy. Ketchup is a staple in our house, the Princess loves ketchup on everything and while it is a staple I hate the high sugar content. Growing up in Pittsburgh the name Heinz meant ketchup and I never liked any other brand. Recently Heinz came up with a new ketchup called Simply Heinz. Heinz went back to the basics and reduced their ketchup to just the necessary ingredients: tomatoes, vinegar, sugar, salt and a special blend of spices and flavorings. I swapped out our ketchup with Simply Heinz and my girls did not bat an eye, they loved Simply Heinz just as much as their old ketchup and I am thrilled, Simply Heinz will definitely be a new staple in our house. As a mom I am thrilled that companies are taking the health of our families seriously and making quality products to help us achieve healthy cooking.

Make Mealtime Fun with mOmma

Mealtime is always a challenge with little one’s especially when you are first transitioning to sippy cups and solid foods. Little C is my only child to be on a bottle so sippy cups have been a challenge. For my other girls they were used to only breastfeeding so the cup was a novelty, to Little C the cup is an annoyance. When I opened the package of mOmma cups and dinnerware I immediately loved the look, had I seen it in a store I would have bought it for sure. I was given 2 different cup options the mOmma non-Spill Cup ($13.95) and the mOmma Cup with Straw ( $12.25). Little C has responded well to both of them and it is fun for her to push it around and watch it wobble. Unfortunately it is also fun to push it to the floor and watch mommy pick it up. The handles are nice and she can easily hold it herself as long as it is not too full making it too heavy (she is not quite 1 yet). The mOmma Warm Developmental Meal Set with warming plate, fork and spoon ($22) is a great first set as well. I like the unique fork and spoon and the fact that they stand upright keeping them off germy surfaces is a plus. Had I known about these bottles before I definitely would have bought them to try out with Little C, plus they are BPA and phalate free and dishwasher safe which of course I love. Overall I really like mOmma products and will be watching for future products to try out with my kids. Be sure to follow mOmma on Facebook and Twitter.

Vincent Shoes is a name known for quality kids shoes with style. I have been wanting to try a pair of Vincent shoes for my girls because I have heard great things from other moms. The Princess who is 4 1/2 is getting very particular abut what she wears so I let her peruse the Vincent website and pick out a pair of shoes she liked. She loves to dress up so I thought for sure she would pick one of the dressier shoes but instead she went for purple her favorite color. The shoes she picked (the Milla) are absolutely adorable and she has worn them daily since they arrived. Even though it is still Summer she has abandoned her sandals for her shiny new purple tennis shoes.
