Nuby Easy Grip Bowl with Long Handle Spoon video review!
Want to hear me sound like a total goofball? Well now is your chance!! Check out this video review that I did on my new favorite Nuby product! The Nuby sectioned Easy Grip Bowl.
"Our sectioned Easy Grip™ Bowl is perfect for feeding time because it is easy for mom to hold and has multiple compartments for different foods. The soft ergonomic design of the thumb rest allows the bowl to be held with either hand in a comfortable and more natural feeding position. It comes with a seal-tight lid that features an automatic steam vent which allows the sealed bowl to be microwaved safely. This unique feature prevents nasty splashes in the microwave and allows the bowl to go from refrigerator to microwave without any problems. This bowl comes complete with a uniquely designed long handle spoon which helps make feeding time easier for mom and baby. Its long handle design makes reaching the bottom of taller baby jars and bowls easy - no more messy finger tips!"

Its been a month, forgive me? How about with a Nuby giveaway??
Its been a month since I blogged... Zaq has been on tour now for 5 weeks... were down to the home stretch and he will be back on Sunday... meaning things will get back to normal... well kinda. It seems like every time he comes back after a long trip - its just a different kind of normal to get used to... then by the time I do he's headed out on the road again. Im sure you military mamas know how I feel... Anyways - I appreciate those of you that are still hanging around... can you forgive me? How about with a Nuby giveaway?? I think that would be a GREAT way to kick off the week AND get your attention again :)
Today Ill be giving away a little 4 pack of goodies for you! Mrs Rozzlyn is checking it out for you... making sure it passes her strict inspection.
Now the the boss says its ok... lets continue... today's goodies are all kinda of focused around teething & fun.. Some just fun... some just teething... and some are both!
1: Brites Pacifier two Pack and Strap (0-6m) - "The classic oval baglet with symmetrical shield design ensures that the pacifier always fits in your baby’s mouth. Nuby’s air system allows air to circulate between baby’s delicate skin & pacifier. The pacifiers come in various fun bright colors and designs!" 2: Softees Soft Silicone Teether - "The new Softees™ Soft Silicone teether’s unique textured design provides comfort to baby’s delicate gums. It provides stimulus to the lips and tongue which promote the transition from nursing to chewing. Includes hygienic carrying case."
3: Teething Blanket - "The Nûby™ Teething blanket is designed to comfort and soothe your toddler through the teething process. The multiple teething surfaces on each corner allow your baby to chew and cut their first teeth, relieving sore and sensitive gums. The blanket crinkles and squeaks with a gentle squeeze of the soft fun characters and helps stimulate your baby’s senses and imagination." 4: "These Safari Chimes™, by Nûby™, are additional interactive toys that blend both fun and function. They feature bright colors, playful sounds, a variety of textures and fun characters that are sure to captivate your baby's imagination. Additionally, they hang from a clip that easily attaches to stroller, high chair, car seat, etc."
Of all the items in this giveaway - the teether has to be my favorite... they're SO SO cool... the silicone is that perfect combo of hard and soft for a teething baby... Rozzlyn LOVED all the little nubs and textures it features... and my favorite part was the hygienic carrying case... It was nice that it always had a clean home and wouldn't be pulled from the diaper bag covered in lint, smooshed crackers and who knows what else :)
So there ya have it! My attempt at bribery for you to love me... and forgive me for the unplanned and unwanted break. I promise Ill try my best to be better again! Now... go enter!

Nuby in the Community!
A little over a week ago was my turn for the Nuby in the Community project!
I teamed up with a local day care owner/friend of mine Jamie - to see if we could get together with all the kids and do a fun project. Together we are both seamstresses as well, so it seemed only natural that we would do something fabric/sewing related. What we came up with was to buy a bunch of fabric and a bunch of markers and let the kids go to town coloring and drawing pictures... we then would sew them all together and donate them to a local shelter or elderly home. IT was the perfect idea :) The pictures following are of all the fun we had making it happen.
First - we followed lunch up with some water in our new Nuby sippies!
Then we dove right in coloring on all the fabric. We had multiple different colors and prints of fabric... and a rainbow of Sharpies to make it beautiful. I must note... sharpies for toddlers probably wasn't my best idea.... haha we ended up with quite a bit on hands and clothes. OOPS! But they still turned out great so Id call that a success!
We really had a great time, and I am so glad to have been able to be a part of it and the Nuby in The Community project. Look forward to the next one to come!
