One Bar is a pure serving of fruit that you can travel with. It is enriched with baobab to give you plenty of antioxidants and added chicory for fiber and there is no added sugar, gluten, or wheat. The One bar comes in three flavors: apple, mango, and cherry. 


The One bar is Lex approved. This is a great, quick, and healthy snack for toddlers on the run. Lex wanted more and more. Not just that they are also healthy for adults as well. These bars are a great size and are never left unfinished.

See Kai Run

*Disclosure: I have received product for review. These thoughts are solely my own. 


In 2004 a Seattle mother was looking for a shoe that was fashionable and healthy for children's feet. When she could not find what she was looking for she created See Kai Run. See Kai Run is now run by a teem of dedicated footwear makers carrying on her mission. 


See Kai Run has had a pay it forward mission for over ten years now. They are partnered with a number of other foundations to promote happy, healthy feet and happy, healthy children. 


I agree with the mission and fantastic style of See Kai Run. These sneakers fit Lex great and are so cute and fashionable. They have shoes of all styles and kids sizes for both boys and girls. 

Check out the See Kai Run website for more information. 

Have a yummy day!

Alouette

*Disclosure: I have received product for review. These thoughts are solely my own. 


In the early 70's a French cheese maker decided to bring his passion to the states. He just so happened to pick the same city and state this blog is from, Lancaster, PA! 

Alouette has a variety of soft cheeses that are sure to tickle your taste buds! Le Bon dip has a variety of vegetable type dips that are great for crackers and vegetables! 


Alouette soft spreadable cheese is fantastic on bagels! Whether you are craving something sweet or something savory there is a cheese for everyone! This Cranberry Apple Spice had just enough flavor without being too over powering. Lex loved dipping graham crackers in the Vanilla Bean Cheesecake spread! 


Looking for the perfect little snack? Le Petite Fromage is the perfect single serving of cheese. I was spreading it on crackers and Lex and I indulged in a great treat! They also have Brie, spreadable cheddar, and crumbled cheese! These cheeses are fantastic for serving during the holidays or while company is over too! 

Check out the Alouette website for more information and flavors! 

Have a yummy day!

Swimtails

*Disclosure: I have received product for review. These thoughts are solely my own. 


The Swimtails mermaid tail are made from high performance swim suit material. You can choose your style, color and size and customize it to be your very own! It is 100% swimmable and easy to stretch and put on. Tails come in adult, kid and toddler sizes! 



In order to swim with the tail you need to also order a monofin. This allows you to be able to swim like a mermaid under water. Your feet simply slip into the slots and slip the strap over the back of your heel. Make sure that children are supervised at all times, are strong swimmers, and know the proper dolphin kick when using the tail to swim. 


I found this tail easy to slip on. The waist was loose of it fit in my height. Keep in mind you an get yours custom made to your specific dimensions. My feet feet snug in the monofin. This would be a great gift for your teen or adult that wants the feeling that they are a mermaid! Toddler tails are open at the bottom so they are able to walk but still have the feeling they are a mermaid like they are like their older sibling or guardian! 

If you want to order your mermaid tail and monofin you can check out the Swimtails website

Have a yummy day!

Giant

*Disclosure: I have received product for this post. These thoughts are solely my own. 


Did you know Giant has many of their own branded products for great prices compared to other name brands? I didn't either and what I found was very impressive. Two of Giant's products are their laundry detergent and their baby wipes. 

The laundry detergent is very comparable to Tide and it smells great. I have found that it works just like Tide but for less of the price! 

The Always My Baby Wipes are hypoallergenic and alcohol free leaving my little boys bottom clean and fresh. I am always weary when using a new product on them but these wipes were fantastic. 

Giant has many others of their very own brands that you can check out here and don't forget to check out your local Giant today for all kinds of savings! 

Have a yummy day!

Toddler Bath Salon

*Disclosure: I have received product for this post. These thoughts are solely my own.


The Toddler Bath Salon mat is designed to fit all standard bath tubs. The mat allows children to lay down in a comfortable position in order for parents to wash their hair. Once their hair is washed they can sit on the mat during bath time as well. The mat has a suction cup on the back so it can be easily hung on the wall of the tub. The product i phthalate free. 


I feel like Lex is a pretty easy child to bathe but he loved laying back on this mat to get his hair washed. He didn't get any soap in his eyes or water washing over his face. He thought it was fun to lay on the mat like it was a bed and even wanted to take it out to play with. 

It was easy to blow up as well. It took about 3 minutes to blow it up. Until we established a routine with the mat Lex thought of it more as a toy then a device to wash his hair. After he learned that we hang it up and then play in the water it was smooth sailing. 


This is a great device for children who hate to get their hair washed. If you would like to purchase the mat you can visit Toddler Bath Salon

Have a yummy day!

Santa Bags & More

*Disclosure: I have received product free for review. These thoughts are solely my own.


Need a great way to organize each of your family members gifts this season? Check out Santa Bags and More! Stacey is a busy work at home mom of two little ones that enjoys making personalized decor just for you! She started making santa bags for her children three years ago and it started to become a business as she was getting many requests! 

These bags measure 24x40 inches and fit quite a few gifts! I was able to fit ALL of the boys gifts in their bags and was very impressed with the size! They are personalized and individually painted unlike most bags that are vinyl decals. The bag itself is made from burlap. 


I put all of the boys gifts in their bags and carried them down the stairs and they were very sturdy. Since the bags are painted with a stencil there may be some imperfections but I personally love how vintage they look! The bags arrived very quickly and you still have time to order them all this week! 

You can get bags for other holidays as well! Send Stacey a message on Etsy, she is great to work and communicate with! You can find her on Facebook as well!

Have a yummy day!

Chic baby slings: Fil'up wrap


*Disclosure: I have received product for tho post. These thoughts are solely my own. 

This type of mesh wrap is new on the American market. It is made of pure cotton mesh. It is for newborn up to 33 pounds. The Fil'up does not stretch out of wrap. It can be extended in width but it is tightened in length. This carrier was designed and manufactured in France and comes in many different colors. 


Jack is about 12 pounds here and the wrap held him nice and firm against my body. Walking around it did not feel like it was digging in my shoulders but it does feel different then a woven or stretchy wrap. This wrap would be great in warm climates or for those who get hot easily. 


I did not feel like it was digging into Jack's legs for the amount of time I wore it. I have not yet worn it for a long extended amount of time. While I was wrapping it was a unique experience. It was an odd feeling for the wrap to extend so much in width. It was fairly easy to tighten the rails. 


Over all I am excited to try this wrap in the summer months here in Pa and get a good feel for how breezy it is! I would definitely check this out if you live in a warm climate year round! 

You can find the Fil'up here

Have a yummy day!

I received compensation in exchange for this post. All opinions are mine and mine alone.





Getting flowers is something special to anyone no matter what the occasion. Bloomsy Box makes it possible to give and receive flowers once a month every single month. All you have to do is pick a Bloomsy Box subscription that fits what you need. They will pick out your flowers for you and all you have to do is enjoy or watch someone that you love light up with the delivery of flowers to them.

This is a great idea to do for the holidays and you can keep giving them all year long if you choose. The flowers that are delivered by Bloomsy Box are hand picked and also cut out the middle man making the time that they are chosen to the time that they arrive shorter. Your flower delivery will be more fresh and lively and you or your loved one can enjoy them for longer.

All Bloomsy Boxes come with absolutely free shipping so all you pay for are the gorgeous flowers. All of the plans also auto-renew so that you don’t have to worry about it and if you decide that you no longer want to be subscribed to the monthly service, you can cancel online at any time. Giving flowers has never been easier. The prices are also very reasonable with the smaller bouquet at $34.99 a month and the biggest being $48.99 a month.



Bloomsy Box is set apart from others because of their direct from the farm commitment. The flowers will go straight to you or your loved one straight from the farm. Their blooms come from the best farms around the world including South Africa, Holland, France and South America. They are to your door in less than 48 hours which is pretty amazing. The flowers that you would purchase inside a florist or store have been in that store longer than that.

Treat someone for the holidays or even hint to someone to treat you to the Bloomsy Box experience. Bloomsy Box wants to see your arrangements that you receive, so make sure that you post pictures online when you or your loved one receives them to show them off. This gift for the holidays is one that will brighten people’s faces and can continue to bring smiles all year long every single month.
