Guy is finally here!!!

Seriously Emma has talked about Guy coming for 2 weeks. I totally missed the second she saw him :( as soon as she got out of bed she came down the hall and said where is guy?

I think it is too funny that Henry immediately claimed the new elf plush Guy brought them!!

Mark My Time


So if you have a child in grades 1st-6th. They must have required reading time each night. I know Emma and Grace both do. The last time Grace was at the house after school she was doing her reading and I bet she asked me 10 time..."how long has it been" Now don't get me wrong. She loves to read and she wasn't complaining...she honestly wanted to know. So I found these. I think they are so great. It is a book mark with a built in timer. Now your kiddo knows just how much longer they have. What are great stocking stuffer...SANTA are you listening!!!

Tag A Long

The Tag A Long has been put to good use by my family already! I got one of these as a sample at the ABC show and the next weekend we had Shad's Iron Man competition. Henry loves to ride in his stroller but we knew this was going to be a long day and he would want to get out several times. Lets just say it worked like a charm!!! Whenever he got out and wanted to walk I told him he had to hold onto his handle and amazingly enough he did.

I like the Tag A Long because it keeps him close by me. We were in some very large crowds and I didn't want him to have very much distance between us. There are several other products like this on the market with straps but I think they give to much length/distance. You can get tangled up in them very easily. The Tag A Long keeps our babies close by.
It also worked well for when I needed Emma to be close by and Henry was riding. Whenever we got into a crowd and Henry was riding Emma would follow suit and hold on. It was great.
We are also using this at the grocery store. Henry is getting a little big for the basket and likes to walk. I am not scared in the super market but he does wander a bit. This is really helping us keep task so that my trips don't take quite so long.
They are just $9.99 and come in several colors.

Spiffies

I have to tell you I was totally sceptical of these wipes when my mom found them at the ABC Show. Who is really going to use these???ME ME ME...I am going to use them and so will you if you just give them a try.

Let me tell you a little history-At 3 years old we discovered that Emma had a sever problem with her teeth...after many dental visits, a TON of money, undergoing complete sedation, we finally had her teeth fixed. She has just now began to relax when it is time to go to the dentist over 3 years later. I have been so worried about Henry's teeth. I know that these problems can be hereditary (they get it from there daddy...NOT me) I swear I almost brush this kids teeth out of his little head!! So when my mom found these I was interested but I am also realistic...So we made a small order and I brought home the samples.

Well lets just say...HENRY loves them. He is the one who reminds me we need to do his wippee's...He is the one who pulls a packet out every morning and every night, and he is the one who will sometime during the day go and get me a packet and say..."I need my teeth wiped" He loves the taste and I love what this is doing for him. So spiffies...you have made your way into our daily routine and we are happy to have you.
Xylitol-is a proven cavity fighter and I need everything I can get in my corner to keep my baby from having to go through what his sister did!

  • Spiffies Wipes are simple, safe and your kiddos is going to love the taste!


  • These toothwipes have been clinically shown to reduce the number of cavities in babies by 85%

  • Rubbing sore gums with chilled Spiffies Toothwipes are a great way to soothe teething pain.

Ulubulu

I am so happy to be home for a while and have my head above water so I can start to blog again, as well as do all the other day to day things I love to do.

As I mentioned in my previous blog I have been at market alot lately. The first one was the ABC Kids Expo in Las Vegas. This is a hugely important show for us. We work so hard to cover the over 1,000,000 square feet of vendor space, searching for all the unique products that you know and love us for. Over the next couple of weeks I will be updating you guys on all the cool things I found!

Ulubulu is a company that we have been familiar with for several years but they were previously known as personalized pacifiers. I found this company before Henry was born and I was so excited. I just love the sayings. Henry and I would get stopped all the time so people could read what his paci said. I think they are too funny but even more I love that you can get your babies name on their own paci. What are GREAT idea. Not every baby goes to day care but at some point you will have your babies with other babies and it is so nice to know who's binkie is who's. Now Henry does go to daycare so I know that the daycare workers always know his paci because his name is right there--Black and White! These personalized paci's come in a variety of colors and sayings. We already have a huge selection at each of our 3 locations with numerous cute sayings. ( These looks great as a package topper!) If you would like to have yours custom made we can do that to...You will get 3 paci's in your color of choice with your precious baby's name on them. These are a great baby gift!
There is also a new silicone bib that Ulubulu makes that we just got in. Are these not the CUTEST bibs ever!!! They have a really great closure on the back and that all important "pelican" lip to the front that catches all the crumbs!!!
