I.D. Me Labels Contest!

I would like to share this fun contest I.D. Me Labels is hosting. They are giving away a Giant Camp Combo Pack value at $59.95. I would love to win this...who wouldn't want to?

I never realized the important of labeling everything until I had kids. Every time I turned around I see babies and toddlers have the same bottle, sippy cups and pacifiers as my kids. So now I label anything and everything that belongs to my kids. I even label their toys. You can never have too many personalized labels!

I personally never tried I.D. Me Labels before but I've tried other brands. But what I like about the I.D. Me Labels are the fun and kid friendly designs in their labels. And they have so many to choose from! You can even pick the font you like. Their labels are also dishwasher- and microwave-safe! You can watch the video below for more ideas on things you can label with I.D. Me Labels.

So what are you waiting for. Enter HERE!

Cupcakes!

The other day Libby and I made cupcakes and I let her decorate them. She had a lot of fun. She kept saying "thank you mommy." It's amazing how kids can enjoy simple things in life. You don't have to spend a lot of money for them to have fun.

If you are wondering what happened to her hair see my Wordless Wednesday post.

Wordless Wednesday: Libby's new hair cut

Last weekend my husband cut Libby's bangs while I was at work after I told him not to...and he cut it too short :( Poor baby girl.

HearthSong Review and Giveaway

I was given another opportunity to work with HearthSong for another review and giveaway. If you never heard of HearthSong before, definitely check out their amazing collections of outdoor toys, games, puzzles and arts & crafts. They have so much to offer. You can find "toys you'll feel good about giving."

This time I got to review their Butterfly and Froggy Kites. I was really excited because a couple of months ago I attempted to make a kite for my daughter but it didn't turned out well. You can see the picture here.

The first day we took the kites HearthSong sent us was not a windy day. My husband thought it was a bad idea. He said it has to be windy for a kite to fly. In fact, that day you can hardly feel any breeze but guess what? It flew! It was my first time flying a kite and I had no problem flying it. I was even carrying Emma while flying the kite!

There was another family flying their kite that day. But their kite did not fly at all. I actually felt bad for their son and almost gave the other kite to them.

They are also very well made and durable. We have used it a few times and it still good as new. Flying kite is now one of our favorite things to do outdoor thanks to HearthSong!

Product Description: Butterfly and Froggy Kites

With their sunny and pleasant designs, each kite has a large wind catching surface perfect for beginning kite enthusiasts. Made with ripstop nylon and fiberglass frames, it requires only a slight breeze to send it flying. When not in use, kids can hang it in their room as a decoration.
Choose Butterfly or Froggy!

Size
Butterfly (87"L x 47"W.)
Froggy (77"L x 47"W.)

Fun for all ages.

GIVEAWAY

Thanks to HearthSong one of my readers will win their very own kite.

Little Tikes Cozy Cruisin' Wagon Review

I recently had another opportunity to work with CSN Store to review one of their many products they carry. Did you know they have more than 200 online stores? You can find just about anything! Choosing which one to review was the hardest. I had so many to choose from! Since I have been wanting to get my daughters a wagon for this summer, I decided to take this opportunity to review one.

I was sent the Little Tikes Cozy Cruisin' Wagon to review. We own quite a few Little Tikes toys and we have been pleased and happy with them. And the Little Tikes Cozy Cruisin' Wagon is by far our favorite toys from them so far! We have been enjoying the wagon both outdoor and indoor. Olivia loves to ride inside. However I wish it comes with a seatbelt so younger kids can ride safely. Emma loves to take ride inside but I have only allowed her to ride while we are indoor. I'm afraid she'll fall out while riding.

The wagon is HUGE! I'm surprise how big it is. Plenty of leg rooms even with two kids inside. There is also a built-in cup holder in the side of the wagon. I also love that there is a hidden storage underneath one of the seat where you can store just about anything such as toys and snacks. You can even place ice to keep snacks cold.

I have no problem pulling it with two kids inside. It turns well and my kids are very comfortable riding inside. The weight limit is 65 pounds per child so I know we will be using this for many years.

My only complain is that it was a little difficult to assemble than I expected. It took about half an hour for my husband to put it together.

Wholesale Keychain Review and Giveaway

I love taking pictures of my kids. In fact I carry a camera with me everywhere! I also love to show them off to friends, family and coworkers. But I don't always print all the pictures I take. So when friends ask for new pictures of my kids, I end up showing them pictures from my cellphone.

Recently I was given a chance to review a digital photo keychain from Wholesale Keychain. I was sent the pink 1.5″ Digital Photo Frame Keychain to review. It allows me to show pictures of my kids to friends and family with the pictures I took from my camera. Uploading pictures is super easy. In fact you can figure it out without reading the instruction. I should know because I lost the instruction! :) It has 4.8 MB internal memory which can store about 72 pictures. Another feature I love about this keychain is that it has a built-in rechargeable battery and it also comes with a USB cable! It is also very affordable. You can purchase it for $9.99.

Kung Zhu Pets Review and Giveaway

I was recently chosen to host a Kung Zhu Pets party thanks to Mom Select. I was sent a huge box with full of hamsters, playsets, battle armors, and battle arena to review. My daughter was so excited when she saw it. She opened the white hamster and started playing with it right away.

These hamsters are a little different than the original Zhu Zhu Pets. These hamsters are ninja like hamsters and they are ready to fight and battle. My nephews were very excited to find out that I will be hosting the party. Everyday they kept asking when is the party!

Everyone had a great time during the Kung Zhu Pets party..even the grown ups joined the fun. The kids needed helped with putting the accessories together. There was just too many they can handle. Although they are geared more for boys, the girls also had a blast. The party was a lot of fun and it lasted for hours.

You can purchase all the accessories separately. And what's great is that there is no wrong or right way to put it together. You kids can design it which ever they like.

I really wanted to show you guys a video but I accidentally deleted it :( But I have pictures to show you all how much fun we had during the party!

How would you like to win a Kung Zhu Pet and a Battle Armor? I have one to giveaway to ONE lucky reader. Sorry I only have those two left. All the kids opened everything else!

The Scholarships for Military Children Program is primarily funded through the generosity of manufacturers and suppliers whose products are sold at military commissaries, worldwide. Military families are encouraged to take advantage of their commissary benefits that not only provide a savings of more than 30 percent on the products purchased, but also support the military community through programs such as this scholarship. My Pillow Pets® is proud to be a supporter of Scholarships for Military Children.

A unique website has been created for these special, patriotic My Pillow Pets®- www.MyPillowPetsGives.com. Only 3,000 of the limited edition My Pillow Pets® plush folding stuffed dogs are available at a price of $24.95 plus $6.95 shipping & handling.

Made of ultra-soft chenille, My Pillow Pets® plush folding stuffed animals are much more than a snuggly toy. With a strap that closes underneath to transform the pillow into a friendly pet, they are an ideal travel pal, naptime buddy and all-around cuddly friend. My My Pillow Pets® plush folding stuffed animals are available in 20 different animals including jungle animals, farm critters and sea creatures, in addition to this limited edition Fouth of July dog, and are machine washable.

For more information about My Pillow Pets® plush folding stuffed animals, please visit www.GetPillowPets.com.

About My Pillow Pets®

Since 2003, My Pillow Pets® plush folding stuffed animals have been bringing smiles to the faces of all ages. The concept for the snuggly companions was the brainchild of a San Diego-based mother of two, who had grown tired of picking up stuffed animals strewn across her children’s rooms. What began with the simple goal of transforming a simple stuffed animal into a functional item for children has grown into an amazing jungle of popular retail and wholesale products. For more information, please visit www.GetPillowPets.com.

Disclosure: I will receive a Patriotic Pillow Pet to review. No other compensation received.

Culturelle T-Shirt Giveaway - 2 Winners!

I never heard of Culturelle before until recently. Culturelle is the only probiotic dietary supplement containing Lactobacillus GG, the ³good² bacteria strain used to restore and maintain a healthy balance in the digestive system.

It is all-natural, and does not contain any wheat or gluten. There are trace amounts of dairy proteins (less than 15 ppm in each capsule), but it is also available in a dairy-free formula.

Culturelle® Products are as follows:

• Natural Health and Wellness 30-count
• Culturelle for Kids
• Digestive Health 30-count
• Dairy-Free Natural Health and Wellness -30 count

Culturelle is the most researched and clinically proven probiotic supplement on the market. Lactobacillus GG, which is only found in supplement form in Culturelle, is the subject of more than 450 clinical reports and studies, making it the mostly widely researched strain of probiotic in the world proving its safety and efficacy.

Culturelle works to help promote overall digestive and immune health. Diet, stress, travel and even some medications encourage bad bacteria to flourish in your intestinal tract. When bad bacteria outnumber good bacteria, your digestive and overall health is open to a host of potential concerns. Culturelle, with Lactobacillus GG, safely and naturally replaces the bad bacteria in your digestive tract with good bacteria leading to healthier digestion and a stronger immune system.

Unlike most-probiotic-fortified foods, Culturelle gets to where health benefits are needed the most! The Lactobacillus GG found in Culturelle is one of the few probiotics that survives the strong acids of the stomach and intestines and then has the ability to colonize the intestinal tract (where 70% of the immune system resides).

To learn more about Culturelle you can follow them on twitter or facebook.

Coupon: Go to print $1 off or $2 off coupon. You can also tell a friend and get $3 coupon.

Disclosure: I was contacted directly by Culturelle. Above information was provided to me. No compensation was given.

Father's Day Gift Idea: Victorinox Swiss Army knife

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Swiss Army. All opinions are 100% mine.

Another great gift idea for Father's Day is a Victorinox Swiss Army knife. Any dads would be thrilled to own a Swiss Army knife, I know my husband would. He actually own one and he never leaves home without it. He had it for as long as we've dated and that's more than 10 years. He sure could use a new and better one!

The Dual Pro X is my favorite. I know he would definitely love it also. Perfect to replace his old one, which by the way still in a great shape. They are durable and would last for years to come.

I know my husband deserve the best gift this year for Father's Day. He's not only a great dad to my kids but a wonderful husband. And I can't go wrong getting him a Victorinox Swiss Army knife. If you're still looking for a gift for your dad, brothers or husband for Father's Day, definitely consider Victorinox Swiss Army knife.

Don't forget to fan the Victorinox Swiss Army on Facebook. You can enter the Share the Adventure Facebook Page for a chance to win great products and compete for a $25,000 Ultimate Adventure.

Libby Can Read!

I'm always amaze each time I see the commercial for Your Baby Can Read on TV. Babies as young as my daughters reading. I really wanted to get it for them. I've entered tons of giveaways for Baby Can Read. I have lost count how many times I entered but did not win.I even contacted them to review it but never heard back from them.

I was so happy when my mother-in-law bought the kids the kit. We recently just started the program and we can already see progress. Olivia is reading some words!
