Smoobee Hairbrush review and giveaway

My newest review is for the Smoobee Hair Brush.  I was very excited about this product. My daughter and my 3 year old son have hair just like mine. Very fine, but also very thick. Tangles have been a constant problem in our house! I have actually gone so far as to cut mine and my daughter's hair. I have tried many conditioners and detanglers with limited success.

The Smoobee Hair Brush  is completely different from anything I have seen before. It looks to be a combination of two different types of bristles. It has the shorter bristles as well as the longer plastic tipped kind. It also came with a sheet of stickers. My daughter loved decorating the bush herself. Any time a product allows for personalization it gets bonus points from me!

Here is Sabrina adding her own personal style to her new brush!

After decorating it we went to work on her hair. Immediately I noticed a difference! Sabrina was also very surprised. The brush moved smoothly through her hair. I asked Sabrina what she thought about the brush. She said that because of the different kinds of bristles it was easier to brush through her hair and to get out all of the tangles.

You can see just how easily it slides through her hair!

I then tried it on my son's hair. My son has very long fine hair. He also noticed a difference. Jackson sat much better for me to brush his hair.


As far as my family is concerned the Smoobee hair brush is a hit!! I would definitely recommend this product!

Vinyl Disorder Review and Giveaway

 

My most recent review is for a product from Vinyl Disorder. It was so hard for me to choose an item because they have a HUGE selection! Just about anything you are into, they have a design for it. And usually not just one design, but several. I wanted to find something dealing with the Navy or something nautical. I finally picked a print design. It reads " There is a special place in heaven for a Navy family". I absolutely love it! I, of course, had to order it in navy blue.

Here it is up on our wall. I think it looks great!

And here is my husband making sure it is up there right!

The Pitch List is having a giveaway. The winner will be able to choose the item, color, and size (up to 36 in,)

Bluapple review and giveaway

Here is my latest review. It is for a product called Bluapple, 
I was very excited about this product! It is designed to prolong the life of your fruits and vegetables naturally. As the name implies it is a blue (plastic) apple. Inside is a pouch that contains the "magic" ingredients. It works by controlling the natural ethylene gas that produce gives off.
Each packet is designed to last about three months with normal conditions. Once the packet is no longer effective it can be added to your garden or flowers as a natural fertilizer.

I decided to try this with bananas. My kids love fruit and it is hard to keep up with the demand. The thing is that when I buy a little fruit they go through it in a day. I buy a lot of fruit and it sits around. I absolutely hate throwing away food, but what can I do? No one wants the brown banana.

.

Here is a regular banana after several days with the Bluapple. It still looks fresh!

This is a banana without the Bluapple. As you can see time has not been kind to this guy!  After just a few days it doesn't look appetizing at all! What a difference! Which one do you want to eat?

The Bluapple comes in a package of two. Refill packs are available also.

When you visit the website you can also watch a clip from  the tv show The Drs. featuring a segment about Bluapple. You can also get all the info on how this product works as well as ordering info,
So now that you have seen just how great this product is you know you want one! How would you like to win your own? Enter the rafflecopter below for your chance to win your own! There will be 20 winners!

Smart Pack gummy Vitamins

Smart Pack Gummy Vitamins, A review


My latest product to review is Smart Pack Gummy vitamins. I received a box of individual packets of their adult gummy vitamins. I personally never remember to take a multi vitamin. I always tried while I was pregnant, but most of them taste so bad I was unable to take them every day. I was very excited for these because as a rule I love gummy anything!

First, let me tell you a bit about the vitamins as per the box. They are shaped like bears and come in five different flavors. Strawberry, Orange, Pineapple, Tea, and Lemon.This is helpful because each flavor is a different type of vitamin. The strawberry is calcium. The orange is DHA/EPA Omega-3. The pineapple is vitamin D3. Tea is for energy, vitamins B6 and B12. Finally the lemon is a multi vitamin.It has ten different vitamins and minerals.

The box also says that they contain fish, specifically tuna. This is important for anyone with food allergies or anyone that may be a vegetarian.

The vitamins come in packs of one each of the five different gummies.  I tried each one individually and they are all good. I will say that in my opinion the lemon does have a bit of a "fishy" flavor, though not enough to keep me from enjoying the vitamin.

You can see all of the different bears in the picture above. See the pink one? This little one doesn't have a name. You can name this one! Submit your name idea for a chance to win something 'beary" cool! The Grand Prize Winner will receive a year's supply of children's or adult's gummy vitamins, a $50 giftcard to Build-a-Bear, and a new i-Phone 5! Wow!

Costume Express Review and Giveaway

  


                                                           


Recently I had the opportunity to review two costumes from Costume Express. I chose the Sock Monkey and the Meerkat.

Here is my 14 month old son John in his Sock Monkey costume. He looks adorable! The costume is a size 12-18 months and fit him very well! It came with the bodysuit and hat.

Just for fun I decided to try the Meerkat costume on my 3 year old son Jackson. To my surprise it actually fit him!

This costume is made incredibly well! It is an Animal Planet brand. The head piece is quilted and looked more like a good quality winter hat. The body suit is lined and has "feet". It seemed to be very comfortable. I can't promise this costume in the 12-18 month size would fit other 3 year olds, but it is a good size. This costume could easily be kept and used for daily dress up play.
Costume Express has a huge selection of costumes for all ages. They also have very competitive prices! I highly recommend checking them out!

Costume Express is giving away 2 prizes!! That means 2 winners! 1 winner will receive a $100 costume code, and 1 winner will receive a $50 costume code! With their great prices and selection this giveaway is perfect for everyone!! Enter using the RaffleCopter below!

FunBites Review and Giveaway

I recently received a Heart FunBites to review. I was very excited to try this with my picky eater Jackson. Out of five children he is my challenge. Food appearance is very important to him. I decided to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and let him have a go at it.

As you will see it was easy enough that he could do this with minimal help from me. You can also tell by the look on his face that he was very proud of himself.
 I think this is a great product and I know we will get a lot of use out of it. The sizes cut will also work for my one year old as he is learning how to feed himself.

Starting out

I have several family members and friends with blogs. They all have suggested I make one for myself, so here goes.
I am a proud Navy wife and mother of five. My husband and I have been married since February 23, 2008. I have a fifteen year old son James, 12 year old son Joseph, 11 year old daughter Sabrina, 3 year old son Jackson, and 1 year old son John Maverick.
As you can guess my days are pretty crazy and very busy.
We just moved to Virginia from Illinois. This is our second official move with the Navy. My husband is in his thirteenth year enlisted. It is not an easy life, but I love it.
We attend a very nice church and we are all very involved with it, It has been a great way for us to all come together.
Our interests are very wide ranging. We all love movies, games, and cooking. My children have been in the kitchen with me since birth.
That is my life in a nutshell. There are so many more details and daily excitements that I look forward to sharing with my blog in the future,
Thanks for reading!
