Caring For A New Baby

If you have children, then you know how important it is to care for them properly. I have seen neglected children, and it is a heart-wrenching and miserable existence for them. I am the mother of 2 children and our third is due in May. One blessing of the due dates for both of my children was that they were born in the summer months. This is wonderful because we don't have to worry about taking newborns home from the hospital in windy and snowy weather. Both of my children came home on hot and humid days and most of the time, they needed very little bundling.
My mom is a mother to 6 children and ALWAYS (no matter what the weather) bundled her babies. I remember her helping to care for my daughter the first few weeks we had her home and she (mom) would always wrap Hannah in blankets and always put a baby hat on her. Now, I have nothing against baby hats but when it is 80 degrees outside, there is no need for one. 

I am for newborn hats though, especially when the baby is first born and needs to retain their body heat. What cute hats there are today in hospitals!! My babies always had huge heads so it was hard to fit the hat comfortably on their heads. :) So, with this coming baby I am excited to see if the hospital has changed their "style" of hats and what they will look like on our new little peanut!

The Pickle Juice Company Review

How many of you are super athletic and active during the summer months? I used to be...prior to having children and now, it seems I chase them all around so that counts as something, right? One concern that many athletes and active people have during the summer is hydration and the risk of dehydration, especially if you live in a hot/tropical climate. We life in NY state so we have four full seasons, our summers can be hot and humid and if you are active, that can be challenging. The other issue that many run into is having a sports drink that can replenish and refresh their system that is gluten free and healthy for them too. Food allergies can limit the choices when it comes to hydration drinks. So, today I am going to introduce you to The Pickle Juice Company . This company specializes in gluten-free sports drinks that will stop muscle cramps in their tracks and keep you hydrated and refreshed no matter what activities you are participating in this summer!

Carmex Healing Lotion & Healing Cream Review

Because I am a member of the Carmex Blog Squad , I am informed of and privileged to bring you reviews of Carmex's newest products! This is something that I have been doing for awhile and have really grown to love the Carmex brand. The newest products that have been introduced by Carmex are lovely and will definitely impress you as they have me. Because I am a mom, I wash my hands frequently. After diaper changes, before cleaning wounds, bathroom breaks, preparing food...all this requires clean hands. Because I usually apply lotion while I am moving and going from one thing to the next, I do not like a greasy lotion. I HATE applying a cream and having to "dry" my hands for the next half hour. What a perfectly good waste of time that is. So, I was wondering what Carmex would offer me in way of fast and quickly absorbing lotion. Before I continue, here is a bit more about Carmex for those of you who are new to their brand... Carmex® lip balm was invented in 1...

Cafe Press Review

Are any of you married to a computer guy ? Do you lovingly call him a "geek" sometimes? (my hand is raised here...LOL!) My husband is the most wonderful man in the world. He is funny, sincere, loving and VERY handy with the computer. I have issues sometimes with coding and am often heard calling "Honey? Can you come look at my blog? I don't know how to fix this!!!!" And, my charming prince comes to rescue me. My darling is going to be 31 in a week and I am SO excited to be able to celebrate another birthday with him. He also shares a birthday with our daughter which makes the day twice as fun. :) She has been talking about her birthday for WEEKS and cannot wait! This next review item is for him so if you know him (and I am hoping he doesn't read my blog for the next week :/) don't tell him about this!!!!!!!! If you are looking for perfect, unique and personalized gifts for someone special in your life I will tell you that after this post, you...
