I Have Seen The Light ...

Ever since we bought this house,I have been telling my husband how much I do not like the lights over top my table. With the hours he works and all the little ones we have,I do most of my shopping online. I have seen other posts about the CSN Stores online and have heard good things about them so I thought I'd take a look around.

I'm so glad I did ! They have so many to pick from in every style,shape and size you could ever want and lots of brands if you want to search them out that way. I haven't decided on the one (ones) I want yet,but I do have a few picked out to show the husband. I didn't like the one over the table but now since I want to change that one,I'm thinking maybe I should change all the others in that room to match...he will be so thrilled ! ha ha

So if you are looking for new lights and can't always get out of the house to go looking like me. I would say go look around their site,I'm sure you will find something to fit what your looking for.

Pedia-Lax Fiber Gummies (Giveaway)

According to research, 90% of kids don’t get the recommended about of fiber in their daily diets.

In fact, did you know a four-year-old child should consume 25 grams of fiber daily, while an 11-year-old boy needs at least 31 grams? While food options are the best, Pedia-Lax Fiber Gummies, a tasty, daily fiber supplement that helps kids ages 2-11 stay regular and maintain better digestive health*, are a great way to supplement the fiber found in fruits, vegetables and other fiber-rich foods. A recent recipient of the PTPA Seal of Approval, the dentist-approved, sugar, calorie and gluten-free fiber gummies are a great way to help bridge the gap between the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations and the actual amount of fiber a child consumes each day. One daily serving of three Pedia-Lax Fiber Gummies provides 6 grams of fiber, the amount of fiber equivalent to 21 spears of asparagus!
And, because we know getting kids to eat foods high in fiber without complaint is a challenge faced by many moms the Pedia-Lax Fiber Gummies (www.fibergummies.com) website and Facebook page (www.facebook.com/fibergummies) also offers helpful tips on how to incorporate a high-fiber diet into a busy family’s lifestyle with tips for meal planning and easy-to-make recipes, too.

Taking Care of Your Kids With Pedia Care (Giveaway)

Having had 6 babies and 3 already gone to school,I have seen all the colds and germs that kids bring home with them. With other ones in the house the school age kid brings it home to share with their little siblings.

Statistics show that preschool-aged children have around nine colds per year, kindergartners can have 12 colds per year and adolescents have about seven colds per year (cold season runs from September through March/April).
This could potentially mean a lot of days off from school or missed days from work for mom and dad! We can’t keep the kids home every time they have a runny or stuffy nose with an occasional cough but the question most of us are faced with is what products are safe and effective for our children; helping to keep them comfortable while they fight the cold.

Introducing, the PediaCare® line of products – with and without acetaminophen -- for children and infants – which address most sick-child situations: cough, cold, allergy, flu, congestion, fever and pain. Product offerings, in kid-pleasing flavors, match the formulations of the recent recall of children’s Tylenol products. In particular, PediaCare Infant and Children’s fever and pain reducers are a great solution for moms wanting a branded acetaminophen alternative.

Not a fan of going to the drug store to buy cold medicines? No problem…To guide parents in choosing the best over-the-counter medicine for their child, PediaCare® launched the PediaCare Shopper’s Guide, a free iPhone application that helps parents with children ages 1-11 to select the product which best addresses the symptoms their child is experiencing. It also helps parents to understand which products require a dosage recommendation from a pediatrician based on age restrictions. The PediaCare Shopper’s Guide also supplies you with complete product information, including a link to the PediaCare website for full product descriptions including dosage directions.

The iPhone application is not a diagnostic tool, but is designed for informational purposes only and does not constitute a medical diagnosis. The new iPhone application is available for free download at http://www.pediacare.com/ or on iTunes.

Availability: PediaCare products retail for approximately $6.99 for a 4 oz. bottle, and are available at drugstores, supermarkets and retailers nationwide. For more information about PediaCare products, visit http://www.pediacare.com/

One lucky reader will win 2 bottles...1 of each :

-PediaCare® Children's Fever Reducer/Pain Reliever (ages 2-11)

-PediaCare® Children's Fever Reducer Plus Multi-Symptom Cold (ages 6-11; okay for ages 4 & 5 with dosage directed by pediatrician)

On The Go With Infantino !

Having had 6 babies,I have had to change them in lots of different places and any diaper bag I ever had always came with a little folded change pad...but that's just it...they were always too small ! I recently tried out the Savvy Bag Baby Changing Clutch from Infantino .

I loved the size of the bag it wasn't big and bulky like most of the ones I had been using and I loved that the change pad was attached and wouldn't fall out or get smashed down and torn by someone (like my husband)trying to cram things into the pocket where it was. It also is so much wider then the ones I have used in the past and I really liked that the pad is not really slippery .

The slim and smart design has an ingenious removable pad that gives baby a clean and comfy changing or sitting area - wherever you go. Parks, picnics, cruising around town or big travels - you'll be ready to roam.

Features:
On-the-go tote with fold-out changing pad
Smart design stows all your essentials
Water resistant pad turns any spot into a clean and comfy changing area
Fold-out changing pad detaches from clutch

Details:
Holds diapers, wipes and everyday essentials
Cushy built-in pillow for baby

I have tried a few different Infantino products now through my blog and also just from buying them and receiving them as gifts for my kids and I have to honestly say,I have been very pleased with all the different products I have had the pleasure of using with my children .

Where Would You Go ?

If you could go on a cruise anywhere in the world,where would you go ? If you have been on a cruise,where did you go and did you like it? If you have been on more then one ,where did you go and what one did you like best? If you have been on more then one cruise and used different cruise lines what one did you like best ? I have never been,but my aunt and uncle go every year and we have friends that go all the time and they love it.

People keep trying to talk us into going on one,but I just don't know. I know this sounds crazy but I'm scared to death of the thought of being eaten by sharks,you know in case the boat happens to sink or you fall off or whatever..haha.

Happy Birthday !

My very first baby is 18 today...after 22hrs of drug free labor I had my first and smallest baby...7lbs6oz. I'm thinking she will always be my smallest kid,she's tiny like I use to be until I had my 4th baby and everything went to hell. I'm 5'4 and she's only 5'2 and weighs 100 pounds ...I weighed 110 when I got pregnant for my third,boy that seems like a lifetime ago now.

She's off to college in the fall to be a labor and delivery nurse , just like her Momma always wanted to do or so she says for now. She may change her mind once she sees it's not the rainbows and lollipops and happy people she thinks it is...we will see.

Avery is 19 months today,both girls are my loudest kids they scream and cry and throw fits like you wouldn't believe when upset...to the point I almost feel sorry for the men they will marry...Almost .

Yoplait Smoothies

I love smoothies when it's hot out and you really don't feel like eating big cooked meals. They are nice and cool and taste great and you are still getting things that are good for you . They are great for kids who don't like to eat different foods but think smoothies or milkshakes as some parents tell their kids to get them to drink them,that way you know they are getting real fruit and not just some fruit flavored drink.

Including Yoplait Frozen Smoothies in your diet is a quick and easy way to help you get important nutrients, like vitamin C or calcium your body needs. And with seven out of every ten Americans not eating the recommended two to four servings of fruit per day, Yoplait Frozen Smoothies could help you reach that goal.

Each package of Yoplait Frozen Smoothies contains one full serving of fruit (1/2 cup) and 110 to 120 calories per serving. Not only does Yoplait yogurt contain live and active cultures, but when prepared with skim milk and made according to package directions, Yoplait Frozen Smoothies are a good source of calcium.

So raise your smoothie glass and toast to a new you! Found in the frozen fruit aisle of your local grocery store, Yoplait Frozen Smoothies come in four delicious flavors. Be sure to check out the newest flavor, Blueberry Pomegranate, along with other favorites like Triple Berry, Strawberry Banana, and Strawberry Mango Pineapple.
