Baby's Little Log Book – Product Review

Jan 24, 2009 by Editor

Being a new mom can be overwhelming. You are faced with remembering all the little details in your baby’s life. When did you last feed the baby? You suddenly can’t remember if it was 3 hours or 4 because you, yourself are running on very little sleep. The Baby’s Little Log Book is a great tool used to help track baby’s feeding, sleeping and diaper habits along with tracking milestones, moods, medications and more. It is all organized in a nice, compact spiral book that is easy to carry in your diaper bag. But that is not all! It also has a section for doctors visits. You can add important facts such as their current height, weight, percentile, age and leaves plenty of room for notes, questions and answers. If you are nursing, there is a spot for your lactation notes along with a pumping log that will help aid you in keeping track of the time of day, amount and how long it took to pump. These sections are all color coded for you to easily flip to the section you need. A great note that I read in the book was that if you are a parent of twins, you can use the left side for twin one, and the right side for twin two. Both of their information is then stored in one easy to find, easy to read record book. This is the perfect baby shower gift for any new mom!

The “Baby’s Little Log Book” retails for $19.95 and can be found at www.littlelogbook.com or on Amazon.com

Sassy Belle Jeans- Product Review

Jan 10, 2009 by Editor

While I was out in Arizona for our KTVK interview, we used space at the Daniela Jay Boutique. While we were setting up for our interview I happen to notice these really cool jeans and thought they were the most creative, cost effective way to add style to a child’s wardrobe. I had no idea who made them and with the confusion and craziness that went along with the interview, I neglected to get the information before I left. It was much to my surprise that Sassy Belle called and inquired about my services with celebrity gifting. I knew who it was and was so excited that we had the opportunity to connect after all.

The Sassy Belle Jeans have an adjustable waste band, which for a toddler is a great, must have! They grow so fast that with the adjustable waistband, you can get longer use out of them. The next thing I really liked with these jeans is the snap closure. There is nothing worse than trying to potty train your child and they can’t even get the jeans unbuttoned (which we have encountered many times). So, yes, snap closure…a must have! Now, on to the key ingredients of these high quality jeans; the panels. Speaking from experience, little girls have their own sense of fashion and style. Their opinions change on colors, themes, designs, styles, you name it, those cute ballerina shoes she wore at 11:00AM are not her favorite at 11:01AM. Little girls change their clothing constantly. It seems that ever hour they are in their rooms throwing all their clothing on the floor looking for that one piece of clothing that will complete her new look. With the Sassy Belle Jeans, she can change her style any time she wants while keeping her room clean!!! Great for mom, right? They offer so many different colors and themes to go with your child’s tastes at any given moment. My 4 year old daughter isn’t a girly girl by any stretch of the imagination, so finding clothing for her is well, very difficult. Sassy Belle Jeans have panels with soccer balls on them, stars, fish, guitars, and penguins, all with a “little” girl flair.

Panels are sold separately in various sizes to match up with size jeans you need. They have a retail price of $12.00 per panel. The jeans themselves run in sizes 2T to 4T and girls 5 to 12 and both retail for $45.00 and have a flower beautifully embroidered on the back pocket with the the Sassy Belle name on the opposite pocket. They are the coolest, trendiest, most hip pair of jeans your child will ever want to wear! And just for that fact alone, we are giving away a pair of jeans (size 3T) with a set of 4 panels! Follow the directions below to enter! A pair of jeans and a set of panels have also been sent to Adam Sandler after the birth of his second daughter.

You Glow Girl!

Nov 26, 2008 by Editor

Today was a long, long day being with my husband and 4 year old all day without a break. To top that off, the “other two”, those would be my two older children, came home from school and it was non-stop talking, singing, yelling, oh reliving the commotion makes me want this next product up for review all over again.

I received two bottles of Glow Mama to review and it really couldn’t have come at a better time. When I got them, I put them in the refrigerator to chill. Today I decided it was the day. The day to take them out and pamper myself. After all it is called, “Glow Mama” and this mama was definitely not glowing earlier today.

First I must tell you that Glow Mama is made with no artificial sweeteners, colors or flavors. It contains no caffeine or fat. What it does contain is kiwi juice, 4 grams of fiber, vitamin C, folic acid, vitamins B3, B6, B12, calcium and iron. It is 70 calories per bottle. Glow Mama was made by a mom for moms, making it one of my favorite drinks!

When you go to www.drinktoglow.com you will find different “mocktail” recipes that you can make that are totally natural and refreshing. I tried one bottle right from the bottle and it was pretty darn good. I don’t usually eat kiwi, so for me, I was a bit unsure if I would actually like it, but I did. It was not as sweet as I was thinking it would be and it had a rather light taste, much like that of a flavored water. But the real joy did not come until I tried one of the mocktail recipes provided on the website that I really felt ‘glowishous’, yeah that is my Fergie made up word, but when you really put yourself in a certain mindset and really take a moment to enjoy yourself, you’ll know what I mean. I tried the “Strawberry Diaperi”, simply because I had all the ingredients and I love strawberries. Took my mocktail upstairs where my bathtub was waiting. I relaxed while sipping on my Glow Mama Stawberry Diaperi and I felt as if I were laying in the sun on a white sandy beach, but then reality sunk in when I heard banging on the bathroom door coming from a very upset 4 year old.

When all is said and done, Glow Mama will provide moms and expecting moms with a healthy, natural, refreshing way to feel good while getting the essential vitamins, minerals and fiber your body needs and is endorsed by the American Pregnancy Association.

You too can capture this feeling by going to www.drinktoglow.com and using the promo code, TM842 to receive 15% off your online order.

Zainey and Zoe Product Review & Giveaway!

Sep 29, 2008 by Editor

We were lucky enough to receive this cute tee for boys from Zainey and Zoe. It is their monogrammed dino-tee. Finding unique boys clothing is very challenging so when we received the “G” dino tee for our son, Garrett, his eyes light up with excitement. I am not sure if it was excitement because he “got mail”, or if it was because he loves the dino shirt itself. Either way, I was happy. He wore it immediately. Showed it off proudly that he had a new shirt. Had to wear it to school to show his friends too. Then when it was time to wash it, that is when I took notice. I wanted to make sure that nothing unraveled or fell apart, or shrunk up to the point that he couldn’t wear it. It washed and dried nicely and he continues to wear it today! In fact, Friday is “D” day at school and you know what starts with the letter “D” don’t you? Dino tee! The monogrammed tee retails for $18.00 and they also make jeans to match! Check out Zainey and Zoe for other great products!

But guess what!!! You can enter to win your own Zainey and Zoe star shaped “dino-tee” seen below just by shooting Baby Swags an email at giveaways at babyswags dot com! Just be sure to include your name and email address in case you win they can properly notify you. Giveaway starts Monday September 29, 2008 and ends October 6, 2008. Only one will win. Retail value of this giveaway is $18.00
