Help make diaper changing more enjoyable for your little one with the comfort of a warm wipe.

A built-in window allows you to keep tabs on your wipes supply without opening the unit, while the tightly sealing system keeps wipes moist over time."

My Opinion

This is one of those products that you get mixed reactions about. Not about the product itself, but about the idea of it. Half the people who have seen this in Aubrey's nursery say, "That's great! I wish I would have had one of those." The other half take the "Is that really necessary?" approach. No, not a necessity. It is something that you could technically live without, but why? Anything that can make a 4am diaper change easier, the better!

I love that this wipes warmer warms from the top. With use, the wipes on the top rotate out quickly, therefore not drying out. Wipes also don't turn brown with this warmer. Less wipes in the trash is always a good thing!

This warmer comes with a night light built in. This is really great for late night changes when you want a little extra light to see what you are doing at the diaper station.

The only thing I don't love, is the color. I would love to see one of these in plain white.

Udderly Smooth Giveaway

Udderly Smooth has been nice enough to offer an Udderly Smooth Prize Pack to one of my readers! In case you missed it, I posted a review on the products they sent me a few days ago. This stuff was amazing! This is what I had to say in my previous post:

I must say, I take advantage of free massages from my husband while pregnant. There is nothing like someone rubbing you down with lotion after a long day in your third trimester. I was lucky enough to receive Udderly Smooth from Twitter and gave it a try.

"Made in the USA for over thirty years, Udderly Smooth® products contain rich moisturizing ingredients. Not your average moisturizing lotion- Udderly Smooth® can be used on Dry Skin, Cracked Skin, forDiabetes Foot Care, as a Facial Moisturizer, as a General Moisturizing Lotion and many other uses."

When it came in the mail I couldn't wait to ask for my foot rub. The lotions have a very slight fragrance which is how I like it. I like to be able to put on lotion and feel nice without walking around smelling up the room. My husband has a sensitive nose and the smell didn't bother him at all! He rubbed the cream into my feet and I could already feel a difference from the lotion we used to use. It felt like the Udderly Smooth soaked right into my dry heels and made them softer. We decided to put more of the foot cream on and put my socks on overnight. It worked GREAT! My feet looked and felt so much better in the morning. No more dryness.

I really enjoyed how Udderly Smooth wasn't greasy either. Previous lotions that we have used leave a greasy sheen after applying, this one didn't. I ended up using the Body Cream on my (oh so large) pregnant belly and legs. I used the Hand Cream on my hands and arms.

My husband isn't lucky enough to have a spouse that is willing to rub his feet down with lotion (sorry hunny!). He however, loves that this is a USA made product. He is a big supporter of USA made products and will try his best to make sure to buy USA made when possible.

I look forward to being able to continue to use this lotion until it's all gone. In a few weeks, I will even be lucky enough to put it on my feet MYSELF! That won't stop me from trying to get the occasional foot rub from DH though :)

WHERE TO BUY

You can buy Udderly Smooth from their WEBSITE OR there is a ton of RETAILERS that sell it near you.

Choopie City Grips and Hooks Review

I was so happy to receive my Choopie City Grips and Hooks in the mail yesterday! I have been watching the mail like a hawk for them to come. I couldn't wait to get them and try them out on my new Quinny Buzz Xtra!

What are they?

City Grips

Soft, stylish & comfortable grip covers slip onto any stroller’s handlebars in seconds, preventing and protecting against everyday wear and tear. Avoid grimy, sweaty hands with durable and easy-to wash citygrips.

• Easy to attach
• Made of plush durable material
• Stylish patterns make your stroller stand out
• Machine wash and dry

They come in Single bar, Double bar, and now in Large Single bar! So no matter what stroller you have, there is a City Grip for you!

City Hooks

Cityhooks are the ideal stroller accessory to attach the soho citybag to a stroller, with the added benefit of hooking on anything else a parent might need.

• Easy to attach velcro straps
• Hooks swivel a full 360 degrees
• No clipping makes it easy to slip bags on and off
• Perfect for diaper bags, purses, grocery bags and much more
• Multi-purpose: can be used on wheelchairs, car seats, cribs and more

My thoughts

 This is what came to me in the mail. Already, I knew I was going to love the polka dots on my stroller! Only enough time passed to snap a quick picture before I was ripping open the packaging to try them out! This is what they look like...

 I am in love with my City Grips! I love the look that they give my stroller, plus the protection against grime. My little girl is due any day now and I can't wait to take my first lap around the neighborhood! I can see how the City Hooks are going to come in handy when out with the stroller. I can use them to hold my diaper bag, or even reusable shopping bags if I just need to pick up a few things at the store! There is always the option of holding my shopping bags at the mall too :-)

Want your own? 
You can buy the City Hooks for $9.99 & the City Grips for $12.95 (the large are $18.95).
BUY THEM HERE FROM CHOOPIE

Girls Don't Poop...Poo Pourri Review

Before I tell you what I personally think about Poo Pourri, let me tell you about it.

What is it?

Poo-Pourri is a before-you-go toilet spray.

How do you use it?

*Grab your bottle of Poo~Pourri, and shake it like a salt shaka’
*Lift the toilet lid
*Spritz 4-6 sprays of Poo~Pourri into the toilet bowl, onto the surface of the water
*Take a seat, lock and load
*Poo
* Flush

Check out their hilarious Poo-Pourri Commericial!

My opinion

We first discovered Poo-Pourri about a year ago in a little gift shop. We bought it as more of a silly gag item. When we got in the car, we looked it up. It has AWESOME reviews everywhere you look. On Amazon, it has a 4.8/5 Star rating on over 1,000 reviews. So if you don’t believe me, read some of those! There are also a ton of YouTube reviews.

I seriously cannot say enough about this stuff.  I am one of those girls that will keep her husband from going upstairs for an hour after I use the restroom. I can’t help it. If I don’t want to smell it, I surely don’t want him smelling it! We both use this religiously now! Yes, you still know someone went no.2, but only because of the fresh lemon meringue smell that is left behind. It is 10,000x better than filling the room with a cloud of an obvious “I just pooped” aerosol spray.

We had one bottle at first, for our bedroom bathroom. Once we realized it worked, we bought a second bottle for the main floor. After that, I HAD to have one for my office at work (we have a single, coed bathroom…Yikes!). I now also have on for my purse, in case I need to go while at a friends house.

It seems like such a comical product, but man is it amazing!

Want to buy it?

You can order directly from their website HERE

Or, as another option, you can order from AMAZON

But don't forget, you can also buy at a RETAILER near you! That way, you can open them and smell all of the scents!

They even have a money-back guarantee!

Full Moon Baby?

Today marks my completion of 37 weeks of pregnancy. That means, today my sweet Aubrey is considered "full term" and is prepared to come into the world whenever she is ready! I love being pregnant, it has been my favorite experience of my life (so far). That doesn't go without saying that I am ready for my little girl to be here.

Someone told me that there is a belief that many women go into labor on a full moon. I had completely forgot about it until this morning. When I looked up the next full moon, I saw that it is this Friday. Yes, Friday the 13th. Now I can't help but to hope that I will be in a car on my way to the hospital sometime over the weekend! I have never been a superstitious person, but it's fun to join in on the fun.

From my Google search, it looks like it is just that, a superstition that goes back many many years. I must say, if I am one of the women that does go into labor on Friday, part of my might believe a little bit! What a fun story to be able to tell your daughter that a full moon is the reason for her birth date :)

Dream KitchenAid Meal

PartSelect.com has asked about what meal I would make with a Kitchen Aid mixer if I owned every attachment for it.  KitchenAid is a brand I have heard of many times, but I never really knew about all of the attachments that were made for it.  After seeing all that they offer, I got to thinking about what I would love to sit down and eat for dinner with my husband. It seems like we are always rushing around and a good home cooked meal is few and far between.

I would start the meal off with a fresh salad. I would use the slicer/shredder to add all of our favorite veggies. We love to add cucumbers and carrots to our salads. Of course, fresh cheese, peppers and home made croutons would be included. My husband would have to add his olives and jalapeños after I got my serving!

I come from a big Italian family, so we are big fans of pasta. KitchenAid has an attachment that you can actually make your own pasta, yes, I know! Fresh Tomato Shrimp Fettucini is exactly what I would make. We have made this recipe before, but we used boxed pasta. I can’t imagine how much better it would taste with fresh pasta!

Of course I always save room for dessert. I am 37 weeks pregnant and ice cream is always on the top of my mind. There is even a ice cream maker for the KitchenAid mixers! I have never made ice cream at home, so I can’t say how good mine would turn out, but I would be willing to give it a shot! Chocolate of course J

Talking about all of this food is making me want to spend the afternoon Sunday cooking for a good dinner. I’m sure my husband wouldn’t oppose!
