Plum Organics Little Yums: Cocoa Puff just LOVED these semi- healthy, organic teething wafers!

Every once in a while, I find an old post that either I forgot to publish or just never got around to it. Today's is one of those posts! I can't believe I never got this one published because Cocoa Puff devoured these like there was no tomorrow! So, here's the post just like I wrote it wayyyyy back when... 

One girl, one cup... Here's Why you need to try the Diva Cup (or another brand... I don't care!)

Okay okay, here’s a FUN topic… 

Are you ready?

Let’s talk about PERIODS! And no, not the punctuation kind!

My review of Stitch Fix (and how to try it for yourself FREE!)

Okay, so I got a deal (which I will pass along to y'all) where I got to try Stitch Fix for free. Basically, this meant they waived the $20 stylist fee included with each shipment. So, that meant that if I didn't like anything in my box, I wasn't out any money, but if I did like something, then hey, cool! New clothes. (Usually, you spend $20 per box on the stylist fee for each shipment. If you decide not to keep anything, you pay the $20 stylist fee, but if you do keep one or more items, it is credited toward your items.)

My Kids Make Me Coffee Every Morning!

Coffee. Cappuccino. Latte. Espresso. Americano. Whatever form it comes in, I'll take it. I LOVE my coffee. I have a cup (just one, because I have anxiety and panic attacks and mild insomnia and too much caffeine causes BAD things to happen). However, I drink as much pretend coffee as my kids make me. 

DIY Christmas Ornaments for Gifts or for Yourself (My Boys LOVED Making Them!)

The boys and I made these really cute ornaments last year for Christmas presents for my grandparents and some friends. They were perfect! All three of us were able to work on them together. They're easy enough for a toddler and preschooler to do, but really, even an adult could make them too! 

Froot Loop & I Made a Gingerbread House! Here's How it Turned Out...

There's a bit of a tradition we do in our family every year. We make a gingerbread house! I end up doing most of the work, but the kids try to help too! 

Tools to Boost your Milk Supply: 9 Different Galactogogues To Try

I had a terrible time when Froot Loop was born trying to get him to get enough breastmilk. I eventually ended up having to pump practically constantly when I wasn’t actually nursing him and I was put on a ton of different supplements to help increase my supply. Eventually, we got our act together and he nursed for almost 3 years! 

Eat your Fruits and Veggies, Just not These Play Fruits & Veggies by Melissa & Doug!

We have a lot of play food in this house. Froot Loop and Cocoa Puff love to play with the food and dishes in their play kitchen. While I usually go for felt or wooden food, I saw these sets were by Melissa and Doug, so even though they are molded plastic, I thought I’d give them a try. 

Can you Dig It? We did, and it was FUN: Review of National Geographic Mega Gemstone Dig Kit

This is a review that I actually wrote quite a long time ago, but I decided I am going to go ahead and publish it now. It is for the National Geographic Mega Gemstone Mining Kit. 

Smoker Box: Why have I never tried one of these before?

We’ve had a propane grill for a while and, while it’s convenient to just turn a couple of knobs and get the fires going, it doesn’t really work well for smoking.  With this smoker box, it’s a heck of a lot easier.  I’ve bought (and gotten as presents) bags of wood chips for smoking.  I’ve got a tote container with bags of cherry, pecan, mesquite, and more.
