We're so in love with our new Ol' McDonald Singing Plush Cow!! Not only is he so incredibly soft and squishy - when you squeeze his tummy he sings the Ol' Mc Donald nursery rhyme. Cutest thing in the whole world? Listening to a just over 1 year old sing E-I-E-I-O! Don't worry - Ill share that in a minute. First - the details. They come in 4 different characters, a Duck, Cow, Lamb or Pig - all making their own animal sound along with the song. They are all baby safe and have no exposed buttons or choking hazards. As always - a huge huge huge thumbs up to Nuby.


And now for your viewing pleasure... Ms. Rozzlyn squishing and loving on "Betsy" our cow :)

I may have a new favorite kid cup! Ok - Ill admit it... Im totally THAT MOM. If my kids want something to drink and its not at my table - its going in a sippy cup. I still cringe every time my husbands since down with a soda on the couch. I want to get him a bib and a bottle nipple, lol I mean... its an offwhite couch and I have three kids and a husband. I have to be careful. LOL

I also send them to bed with a sippy cup of water... Maybe its too many scary movies, but Im always freaked about a random house spider or something crawling in or *shivers* ok, you get it... moving on. They also like to be able to put it in bed with them for easy access - but not have to worry about spilling it...

Here is my dilemma - like most big boys would, they complain all the sippy cups are for babies... and my complaint? Most of the big boy ones come with far too many parts to keep track of and properly cleaned... except for these. Im sold.

The Nuby No Spill Sport sipper is my hero. Just the one silicone spout pops out for SUPER easy cleaning... and my favorite - dishwasher safe... there are grippers on the sides so they're easy to hold on to... and they come in bright bold colors so I grabbed a blue and a green for the boys' favorite colors. They love them and specifically ask for them every day and before bed. Im thinking about tossing all the others (or donating them) and buying a couple more of these so Im not washing them 100 times a day, lol.

I highly recommend you running out to grab some! I grabbed mine at walmart for just a $2.97 each.

Love love LOVE this tickle toes Hippo!! And of course, so does Ms. Rozzlyn... this fake laugh just CRACKS ME UP! If you don't yet have one - I recommend you run out and get one to put under the tree...
