When my firstborn was about one, he slipped and chipped his front tooth on the coffee table in the living room.  It wasn’t too big a deal to us since we figured it’d be falling out at some point but now that he’s five, that tooth is looking like it could use a filing or something just in the one spot.

He says it’s starting to come loose and is looking forward to his visit to the Tooth Fairy and he brushes regularly (he loves it – best nighttime stall tactic before bed ever) but his father and I are still worried that maybe there’s a cavity that would shoot up into his gums and cause him pain.

We take him for checkups every six months and he knows how to floss (we help) and like I said, loves to brush but when I was offered a chance to review and giveaway for EnvoraKids I was pretty eager to check it out.

Every morning before Jake goes to school he takes one with his daily vitamin.  He get super excited about it and loves to point at his teeth and say “See mommy?  My teeth are white and strong!” (more…)

I’m not quite sure why I decided to write this in the morning, considering I had them for dinner last night.  Ever since Tyson asked if I’d like to review their newest product Any’tizers® QuesaDippers™ snacks, I’ve had quesadilla’s on my mind.  I’ve been crazy busy with the kids being out of school and the holidays approaching quickly but I finally gave in, went to the grocery store and absolutely had to try them out.

*DROOL*

I had them last night and I’m already wanting more this morning.  It’s only 10:00.  I’m just waiting until noon so I can make them again.

I’m pretty much addicted to the entire anytizers line of foods, you can find them all on their super cool Facebook page that’s brand spankin’ new and is absolutely “Liked” by me and because you all know how awesome I am, you should like them too.  That would make me smile. (more…)

Millions of people watch, thousands of people audition.  Now we can all take part in one of the hottest fitness games on the market with The Biggest Loser Challenge.  This was my first time working out with this product and over the past two years I have been used to certain virtual fitness products so it was pretty neat trying something new.

What was even cooler was the fact that I felt like I was a part of something huge (maybe not the best terminology right there).  Each week members of The Wii Mommies community watch the popular TV show and become a part of the challengers lives.  We laugh, cry and rejoice at their success.  Everyone talks about them on Facebook and Twitter and with the new product out on the market, we’re able to get fit right alongside them.

Sometimes times I have super good luck (because I’m awesome).  I was just saying how I wished I had a second humidifier because I recently had my tonsils out and my doctor recommended that I use one to help heal my throat but my two and a half year old suddenly caught that nasty cold that has everybody coughing.  About two days later, I received an email from Vicks asking if I’d like to host a review and giveaway of their new Starry Night Cool Moisture Humidifier and asked if I’d also like to review the Braun Thermoscan Exac Temp Ear Thermometer while I’m at it and with Josh being sick I’d said you bet’cha!

And so they arrive (rather quickly, I might add – THANK YOU!) and I took the humidifier out of the box.  I’ve used other humidifiers before and I was a bit nervous because sometimes they’re tough to put together with a billion parts and filters but this one assembled in about two minutes.  My only problem was that I filled it up downstairs and carried the full tank up to the second floor and down the hall and if you know me, I’m not the most graceful person so I got a teensy bit wet.

Okay so my baby making days are over since I lack the reproductive organs necessary but it seems that every time Macy’s contacts me to do a review and/or giveaway for their First Impressions gift sets I have a friend or relative who is about to or just had a baby.

This time around it was my next door neighbor and I scored BIG TIME when I showed up at the baby shower with this awesome trio.  She’s having a boy and instead of getting her a newborn gift set, I opted for a 3-6 month set because I know she has tons of new baby apparel and I just thought this was as cute as can be.

I was right. (more…)
