See discloser at bottom: A while back we got this great Tri-lounge Lap Desk for your iPad and I thought I loved it then. Was was before I came home one day and saw my sweet little boy laying in bed half asleep with his daddy watching a movie. Ryan works nights so most nights he goes to be at about 4 pm so he ends up going into bed and watching movie (at about 3 pm) with what he and Aiden calls "the cheese wedge".

All opinions are 100% mine. We have all seen or heard the Allstate’s commercials right? You know, “Allstate are you in good hands?” Well Allstate is coming out with a new motto “Good Hands for the Good life.” It is a new insurance company (well more like the old insurance company just getting better)  that helps work to build good lives for their customers. I know with two boys we try very hard to make each day fun and safe for them. This is one reason why we wanted to move into a house. Here is yet another good moment in my life as a mom, Aiden my 2 ½ year old is becoming potty trained. He is on his third day of no diaper (other than bedtime)!  Allstate Good Life  is also trying to do everything they can to help the good life. While they understand that...

I can't wait to see this is look like it would be so funny. I can tell you I would probably NOT bet on Aiden lol.

As a mom (or dad) I am sure you have heard your little one say that their head hurts. And if you are anything like me you want to not give them a ton of meds, but you want to do something. The best thing to do is to five them a cold/cool compress. But lets face it they are kids they are not going to hold that on their heads. Well now there is this really cool product called Cool Gel 'N Cap.  This is a major cute hat that kids can wear when they are not feeling well. There is a pocket inside where you put the gel bag. 

A Beginner's Guide to Cloth Diapering Using cloth diapers is a great way to save money and to help protect the environment. Not only are disposable diapers expensive -- they start to add up when you have several diaper changes a day -- but they are also terrible for the environment since they do not biodegrade and just pile up in landfills. However, cloth diapering can seem confusing and maybe even intimidating to beginners. What do all the abbreviations mean? What do you do with the inserts? How do you wash them? Here's some basic information you need to know to get started with cloth diapering so you can start taking advantage of the money savings and the environmental benefits:

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Comfort and Harmony for SocialSpark . All opinions are 100% mine. Have you heard of the Mombo? No, well it is a  nursing pillow  that has a unique shape and two sided design called Firm2Soft. I can tell you from nursing both of my boys that a pillow made it so much easier to feed them.The Mombo is made by Comfort & Harmony. The Mombo also come in all kinds of fun colors, even this cute Lion King one. Nursing pillows are great for  time and to help prop them up when they are first learning how to sit.        Now I bet you are wounding why they call it Firm2soft? This is because there are two side to this pillow. The firm side helps support you while you are nursing and the soft side is the best for tummy time. Mombo is also the only nursing pillow out there at has a vibrating feature to help sooth baby while he is lying down. You can find all of the  mombo nursing...

I love getting a  Conscious Box , its like getting a fun box of goodies every month, no wait it IS getting a box of goodies every month. You never know what you are going to get. This month I got something called dream water, its a sleep aid. I can't even begin to tell you how much Ryan (my husband) needed this. He said within 10 minutes he started to feel tired! 

This mama just loves the new Part Number ECHO diaper from SoftBums . While I am not great at cloth diapering yet I know Heather (my co blogger) is an expert. She was going to write a post about some of her favorite SoftBums diapers but her computer crashed. If you can cloth diaper it is always the way to go, it save money and the environment.

Please read disclose at the bottom of the post: So I have been kind of holding off to write this review. Only because I really wanted to try this out for two full week and see how I liked it. I guess I should tell you a little about what OraMD  is. OraMD is a three in one toothpaste, mouthwash and breath freshener. It is made of 100% pure botanical oils of almonds, spearmint and peppermint.  Because it is an oil it will not "foam up" like normal toothpaste will. When I first got my bottle I was thinking is was SO small and I am going to go through this is a week. But if you read the instructions (always a good thing to do) it said to use only 2-5 drops on your toothbrush twice a day.

Well it has been a week seance Mother's day. Did you get mom everything you wanted? Wish you could get her just one more thing, more as a I love you gift then a Mother's day gift? Well head over to Novica where you can find handmade gifts for Mother's I have gotten a few things from Novica before and they have been so beautiful. They have just about everything a mom could want. New earrings, necklaces, handbags and so much more. Just look at this Citrine drop earrings "Golden Droplet" and Citrine pendant necklace "Jaipur Sun"(sold separately)

 So I went to my very first Blogging conferences yesterday, and man did I learn a lot. Not just about blogging but also about myself. They talked a lot about getting a Media kit up for your blog, and also what kind of blogger you are. Most of the time people who are bloggers have taken some kind of journalism class. Well I have not, in fact I used to hate writing. But once I became a new mom I wanted to help other moms find out as much info as they can. This is one reason why I love to do product reviews. I also am going to start talking about my struggles in my every day life more. Because lets face it chances are you might have them or, or have had them and know how to deal with it. I want to say thank you to all who have followed my blog. It means the word to me. If you leave me a comment and have a blog of your own please make sure you leave a link so I can come see you.

I am so sorry I have not done this in almost a month. But here is this weeks.

Why the mother is the true friend of the child As Mother’s Day celebrations kick in around the world, both the general public as well as sociology scholars begin to examine the relationship that children have with their mothers. Even though parenting techniques have changed considerably as the social fabric of cultures around the world has, the basic relationship between mother and child remains the same in its essence. Mothers are still considered the best friends of their children and for good reasons too. We examine the reasons why the mother is still considered the true friend of the child.

So I saw this on pintrest a while back and I just had to make them. Oreo Cheesecake Cupcakes! This recipe comes from  catesworldkitchen.com  Here is what you are going to need. Sugar, Oreo, Sour Cream, Cream Cheese, 2 eggs, Vanilla extract, and salt.

As you all know I am going in on a blog even called "For the Home" And this could not have come at a better time for me. We just head back from the home owners that they are willing to fix everything. Soooo that mean the house is ours!!!!

I am glad my husband does not always read my blog because I am about to bash him! So in the middle of the night most of the time Ryan does not flush the toilet. This is not so much because he is lazy, it is more because he does not want to wake us up. Because of this we get the nasty yellow stain and a nasty smell some times. I have tried other toilet bowl freshers that has been so over powering its made me sick. That and when I had morning sick it and we had the freshers in the toilet, now every time I smell that one smell it bring me back to feeling sick. Anyhow  Soft Scrub   has made a  4-in-1 Toilet Care.

In many places the weather is starting to warm up and Spring is here. In Arizona it is already beginning to feel like Summer. Chances are you are spending more time outdoors. A perfect way to relax outdoors is with the Blue Zero Gravity Chair with Pillow and Canopy from Brylane Home .  It is a nice and relaxing chair.

OK call me childish or funny but I just love saying the word Acai (ah-sigh-ee)! Ok but really I am not a big fan of the taste of Acai berries BUT I have found that I love Sambazon's Acai smoothies. I tired a just about all of the Acai drinks that Sambazon makes, and they make a few. Like Acai, blended breakfast, Energy, protein, and supergreens with Kale and Ginger.

Well June 16th. While most of you are thinking of what to get your mom for Mother's day this Sunday. Just don't forget that Father's day is June 16th that is only a little more then a month away. What to do something special for him? Of course you do what kind of question is that! When Ryan and I first got married I made him a coupon book. You know the kind where it says good for one day night, one massage and so on. Well how about a book that is full of fun date idea ? Well with Datevitation you can.

Hey there soon to be mommies this one is for you. Pink Blush maternity  has a wide range of cloth for pregnant moms. Things from cute tops, to pants, to dresses. With over 200 tops I know you will be able to find one that you love. I got the chance to review their  neon pink grey striped fitted top (which they don't sell anymore). The name really tells you all about it. Its pink with grey strips. It also has 3/4 sleeves, great this time of year when the weather does not know if it still wants to snow or not! 

Getting Aiden to eat anything in the morning has been a fight. We have tired offering his every thing from fruits to cereal to even smoothies. But most days he just does not like to eat until lunch. Well that was until we got our hands on the new  Post Sesame Street Cereal.  Most kids know who Elmo or the Cookie monster is. And of course kids want things with  cartoon characters  they know on it. So when Post put Elmo and the Cookie monster on it, of course Aiden would want it.

Here is yet another great one for dad. Father's day is going to come up on you faster then you think. Don't get dad the same old boring tie. Get one that he will really want to wear all year long. Last week got to bless Logan in out church, and it was extra special because this was the first time Ryan got to do it. So I thought, well more like I told him to wear his new <3 daddy time. (that's a heart if you don't know hehe). It was really a special day and I am so grateful that Daddy Scrubs now makes fun ties for dad.

It is getting to be summer time, are you all ready? This year with us having a house I am really excited to get Aiden and little kids pool. When we went back to AZ last year to visit family that was the one thing he wanted to do every day. Once he got up he could look at me and say, "Mommy, swim". But I would also love to a  Little Tikes Endless Adventure Playcenter Playground! Purex is having a huge sweepstakes called  Kick Back and Play! I remember as a kid we (my brothers and I) would play pirates at the park, or you can't touch the ground. Man the games Aiden and I could play.  OK Now if you want to enter to win just click HERE what are you waiting for enter to win you know you want too!!!!
