LOVE LOVE LOVE the Nuby Octopus Floating Bath Toy
We're a huge fan of bath time in this house... and all of our toys have pretty much been replaced by Nuby. I've always had an issue with cheap toys that suck in water and get slimy and mildew in them. Gross. Nothing worse then squirting a toy at a baby and a chunk of who knows what comes out... not cool in my book. When I became a Nuby Mommy Blogger the first things on my list were new toys and Nuby has gone ABOVE and beyond my expectations. I have been so thrilled with every single one of them.
The newest one on our list has been the Octopus Floating Bath Toy... It sits on top of the water and comes with three little rings that you toss onto its arms. Ms. Rozzlyn LOVES it. Its easy for her to hold on to - which is great because the first thing she wanted to do was poke and touch all the little bumps.
Its great for hand/eye coordination while she tries to put the rings on the arms... and of course even the older boys have fun making a game of it too. I definitely recommend getting your hands on one of these! They're made to last and you won't be sorry :)Currently available:

Flower snack keeper - nuby review
I have to take a minute to talk about the insane cuteness of this snack keeper from Nuby... we're all seen them before, right? boring containers that are supposed to keep your kids snacks from spilling all over the place... they rarely work... and are limited in design... but leave it to Nuby to provide us with ANOTHER awesome product...
"No more messy snacks! Our unique Snack Keeper™ cup keeps kid-sized snacks inside the container instead of on the floor or car seat. The soft silicone flaps make it easy to grab snacks without spilling. Nûby™ feeding accessories are made to withstand the challenges of daily use and retain their bright color."
Well - Rozzlyn put it to the test... Shes at that fun *annoying* stage where she likes to take two bites of something then toss it overboard and then do the naughty *adorable* UH-OH!!! when it spills all over the place... but not now Ms. Rozzlyn - you've met your match!
I believe this face was more of a... heyyyyyy wait a minute! She was disappointed where there wasn't a cheerio explosion that hit the ground - mama however, was THRILLED.
Its so easy to use - and I now find myself bringing this thing everywhere. Especially my office... I can't have her snacky crumbs all over the place - so this is the perfect solution.
We approve Nuby!!

AHHHHH!!! Nuby iMonster Feeding Set Review
Who says you can't have fun with your food?? With the Nuby iMonster feeding set - fun is mandatory... The set features super cute designs of little monsters - ready to eat whatever dinner you don't finish...
I use them round the clock for all their meals as they are built to withstand hot or cold temps... and just toss them in the dishwasher when I am finished.
"Each piece in this feeding set is specially designed to be easy for little hands to hold and use. Toddler Plate and Bowl are ideal for children who are beginning to feed themselves. Suitable for warm or cold foods. Our colorful forks and spoons are designed to meet all of these special needs for either left or handed or right handed babies."
This set is so fun for kiddo's of all ages - The spoon and fork are PERFECT for Rozzlyn as she is just beginning to learn to use them - and the deep bowl makes that even easier for her to scoop up the grub. Though - she is still a big fan of her hands for scrambled eggs...
Izzaq had fun with his waffles this morning... making faces at his monster plate... almost challenging his monster to eat his waffles before he did... Izzaq won this battle :)
Another great product by a company that I am so proud to stand behind. Thank you Nuby for all your awesomely creative designs that make meals fun and easy!
Want your own? You can get them by visiting www.buybabydirect.com. The iMonster feeding set is just $12.99.

Nuby Bedlite Buddies Review
How stinking cute are these!? Another adorable, snuggly, lovey plush by Nuby... This one however features a light up face and sings baby to sleep with a sweet lullaby. Rozzlyn LOVES using it as night light when she goes to bed... and I love that it shuts off on its own - as to not be wasting electricity or batteries all night. High Five Nuby for another great product :)

Yo Gabba Gabba Live was AMAZING!!!
Wednesday night we were treated the amazing show - Yo Gabba Gabba Live... and let me tell you it was AWESOME! If you ever have the chance to go, you definitely should. Im pretty sure I had a permanent smile on my face. Yes, Im a 26 year old Gabba fan. IF I wasn't smiling at one of my favorite songs... I was smiling watching my kids sing and dance along... If you're tuning in to our blog for the first time, then Ill fill you in. I have a 1 year old daughter, and 2 sons - ages 5 & 6. My husband Zaq went along as well. I spent some time the days before we went making them Gabba shirts to wear to the show and they were a HUGE hit. Lookin good kids!
*click on any photo to enlarge*
The show was 1/16 at 6pm at the Orpheum theatre down town Minneapolis. Parking was a breeze - super close and just $5. Even with three kiddo's and below freezing temps - it was super simple. We got inside and got our tickets. Stripped off the bundled on winter wear and showed off their sweet new Gabba outfits. Once getting inside we were super excited to find out we got passes to the VIP party after for a meet and greet. But more to come on that later. Immediately inside the door they had tons of souvenir options from toys to tour shirts... and also offered snack packs of juice boxes, gold fish, fruit snacks and more for just $5 - which was great since the show started right around dinner time. They had a couple little activities for the kids set up... a bean bag toss and a music station. The kids loved it!
We got in and settled in our seats and waited eagerly for the show to begin!
And now - a photo montage of all our favorite parts :)
Mike Park:
Don't Be afraid... don't be afraid... don't be afraid... its ok...
She was just LOVING it.
During intermission - the boys sat super patiently while playing their new Hello Friends! Yo Gabba Gabba app.
After a short break they jumped into my personal favorite part.... WE BE BUGGIN!
When Biz pulled kids out of the crowd - I about melted from cute overload listening to them "spit beats"... so so so cute.
And Izzaq's favorite part? Probably the Bubbles... he was slightly excited to see that ;)
Time to say goodbye... but only for a little while!
Afterwards we walked over to the VIP party - which I HIGHLY recommend upgrading your tickets to... amazing, amazing, amazing. Each kid got the chance to take a one on one photo with their favorite characters... Give a hug to Biz - High 5 with DJ Lance - and color and play with new friends...
Izzaq was SO happy to get to high five DJ Lance - he had to tell EVERYONE all about it... and they didn't want to leave. It was an amazing night and I am so thankful we had to opportunity to experience it. The kids are getting so grown up so fast - and soon they won't be excited about things like this, so I try to soak up every bit of it I can. The fact that they were zonked out in the back seat 5 minutes into the drive home - is enough to say we can call the evening a complete success...
