Mummy Knows Reviews

Well I just spent the last few hours changing up my blog. I have learned a lot. Googled a lot and hope you all like it. If you think that there is anything more I can do I am willing to hear what you have to say. Hope you all are having a great weekend!!

I first want to say thank you all for the helpful ideas on how to get my little one into his own crib. On Thursday night I nursed him to sleep, put him in his crib and he was out for half an hour. I then got him back to sleep put him back in, and he was up in less then five mins. Blah.... well I did that three more time then got tired and just put him in bed with me. He slept the rest of the night. So tonight was a busy night for he and he had not had a nap all day. So I put him to bed at 8pm.... its now 10:30pm and he is still asleep, but in my bed. He has not woken up once to look for me. That got me to thinking, maybe he does not like his crib mattress. It is kinda hard and my bed is soft. I have a Sleep Number bed , and boy do I love that bed. Best bed ever!!! With 2 inches of memory foam on top of that!! I have a very soft, let sleep on a cloud kind of bed. I think Aiden also likes soft beds. So I am thinking about go out and buying a small piece of memory foam and putting it on

Hi guys as you know I am a first time mommy and boy is there a lot to learn. I have two little problems that I am facing not that my son has hit 5 months. I am co bedding and he loves the boob. I started co bedding because it was really hard for me to get up at night sit in a chair and feed him. So I just had him lay next to me and eat if he needed it. Most of the time he will just fall asleep nursing and them wake up 6is hours later to eat again. But now that he is 5 months I am wondering when is the right time to start to get him into a crib and how do I do it. We have one room so the crib is in my bedroom and I can't have him cry himself to sleep because of when my husband works. I do put him in his crib to play sometime so he can get used to the idea of being in there. So what I think I am going to start doing is getting him to sleep and then trying to move him over...? Have you had this problem before? Are you a co bedder? The other problem I am facing is that he LOV

I hate makeup, I have never been able to find a brand that matches my skin color and does not dry me out. I am very fair skin, okay lets face it I am white as a ghost!! So it it really hard to find my right color. Then I have really dry skin on top of that so any liquids I use just makes my face look flaky. That was until I got to try the new  Covergirl NaturalLuxe .

Lets face it how many dates have you been on where you have been worried that there is something in between your teeth? Or have gone to the movie and the pop corn is stuck in your teeth?

The end piece is very thing and flexible making it easy to get in between harder places.

HI everyone. I  have some friends of my that don't know the first thing about entering giveaways and have been asking me questions. So I am going to help you the best I can on here. Lets start with the first part: When someone says  Mandatory Entry you must do that FIRST. Most of the time it is simple such as follow me on GFC. But what is GFC? GFC is Google friend connect, on my blog is it on the left hand side and all you have to do is click where it says follow. It will then take you to a page to log in to your yahoo or gmail. Log in click done and that it!!! Now wasn't that easy. Lets move on. After that most blog have a Extra Entries part. You may do as many or as little as you want here. Just remember the more you do the better chance you have to win!! They usually persist of things like follow on twitter or facebook.

I am all about babies listening to instrumental music while they are little. It helps calm them down and expands their little minds. So I was excited to be able to review a company that make instrumental music cds for babies.  Lovely Baby Cd  make a wide range of cd for prenatal to 36 months of age. They are also enjoyed by adults too, not just for babies. But with mothers day coming up I was asked to review their, "Lovely Baby & Mommy" cd.

I always get worried when I go to clean the house with cleaner because of the smell. All of the harsh chemicals in it can't be good for me or my baby to be around. So I always try to rush clean while he sleeps, but my hands still smell like cleaner once I am done. That is why I'm glad I  found  Basic H2 from Shaklee . Basic H2 is nontoxic, natural, doubly concentrated and biodegradable surfactants. But wait here is the best part.... It can be used on just about everything from window to baby diapers to fruits and vegetables. How any cleaners do you know that can do that?!?! What to read what all it can clean click  here  you really will be surprised.

I don't know about you but I like to make sure that my babies room stays clean. Not just any clean but germ clean. Dr. Benjamin Tanner teamed up with Playtex to help moms get the right information that they need to keep a clean room. A recent Playtex survey revealed that having a clean and healthy nursery environment is a key priority for 65% of moms, underscoring the importance of keeping this special room as sanitary as possible. Germ expert Dr. Benjamin Tanner offers five simple and easy tips to help parents do just that. Learn the ABCs of disinfectants vs. cleaners: Cleaners remove soils, but may still spread germs around, while disinfectants kill germs when used correctly. To use a disinfectant correctly in a nursery, remove your baby from the spray or wipe zone and apply the product liberally. After the label-specified time elapses, wipe off the surface with a wet cloth to get rid of any residual chemicals so your baby’s delicate skin doesn’t touch these chemicals.

Playtex baby has teamed up with Celebrity Nursery Designer Mary Bauer to introduce: The Insider’s Guide to Creating a Stylish Nursery. According to a recent Playtex survey, 87% of moms agree that it’s important to put time into making the nursery a great area for their baby. But is it really for the baby? About 67% of moms spend up to (if not more) then three hours a day in the nursery. As a new mom I remember going over all the different types of thymes for my little one's room. I was so overwhelmed and did not know where to start. Mary Bauer gives this great guide to help you make the most out of your babies room. I wish I had known some of the thing Mary Bauer is about to share with you. It would have make Here are some of the tips/guild lines that Mary Bauer uses for creating a stylish nursery: Ease up on Themes and Colors : Bright colors and busy patterns are loads of fun, but use these elements sparingly. Too much can overload the senses and make the room feel crowd

With Earth day coming up we are all doing to do our part to be more green. I have changed to cloth diapers, and using "green" friendly house cleaner. But what about what I eat and drink. Coco's has this great coffee that is organic from the Chiapas Region of Southern Mexico. " A combination of the hands-on involvement of the farmers, the rich resources of the land, and the experience of the Bats’il Maya Cooperative make this coffee a flavor  ex perience you won’t soon forget."

Have you ever wanted to go on a date without the kids? Who hasn't! Having a hard time finding a good sitter? Well here is a great new way for moms to find sitters and for sitters to find you. This is a brand new web site called Sitter Pals  made by Amanda Armstrong, the web sites launch date is April 18!! This site allows parents to share their trusted sitters with other moms. Being a mom I know how hard it is to find a good sitter that you trust with your kids with. Moms can now share sitter with their close friends and not just any and all moms.

So I went to Coco's Bakery tonight for dinner and they have some great new items on their menu for spring.... STRAWBERRIES YUMMM. I love that the menu had multiple realistic picture of the food, most of the time you can tell the food is not real so when it comes out to you, you're looking at it like, "what is this I did not order this..."

So I got some sponsors working with me and I have 2 giveaways coming up at some point this month. Like I said just stick in there with me and I'll get them pumping out soon!!!! 

"Jesse sing 'forever' to Rebecca - Full House" Each week I will be thanking someone that means a lot to me or sharing something special that has happened to me or I saw happen. I hope you enjoy. Today I was writing this for my husband. I never imagined I'd still be this happy and this much love after all these year (lol all 3 1/2) You're still the one the best thing that ever happened to me.

So after having a baby I learned how important it is to eat right and cut out the artificial processed foods. So I wanted to grow a garden, that way I know for sure that the food is does not have any chemicals sprayed on it or anything added to it. I loved the idea and my husband was excited about it too, there was only one problem I have never grown a garden before. So I started to grab some book and look it over, and my eyes got tied fast and I did not learn much other then I still did not know what I needed to do or when I needed to plant things based on where I live. Lucky I stumbled across the great place,  GroOrganic  they have all the information you need and more.

So our baby just hit 4 months and its that golden age to start introducing food to him. Of course there are lot of people who say you should wait till they are 6 months and only give them white rice..... well after hearing all about Dr. Greene and his white out story...( go here to ready more about it  http://www.drgreene.com/ ) I was glad to know that it is ok so to feed your baby at 4 month only if they seam like they want to eat. Also that its good to start with organic food and not the white rice. So I looked around and found Plum Organic baby food
