Extraordinary Baby Gifts from IncrediBundles

I received complimentary products to provide this review. All opinions are my own.

I have mentioned once or twice that I know quite a few people who are expecting. I am always looking for unique shower gifts that are also very useful. So when I was contacted to check out Incredibundles, I was very excited. I have heard of them for a while now, but haven't had the chance to try them. They have so many awesome bundles to choose from; Book Bundle, Year of Toys, Year of Diapers, Sleep Bundles, and more. They also have an option for you to create your own bundle, which is what I decided to do.

 
I chose to get items that I felt were classic and must haves. Here's what I chose to get:

Introducing SnuggyBaby + Cloth Diaper Giveaway Hop, Ends 7/4


Welcome to the "Summer Cloth Diaper" Giveaway Hop hosted by Heather from 
Mommy's Favorite Things and Michelle from Mama's Baby Cupcakes. This is the 5th Annual "Summer Cloth Diaper" giveaway hop. Each blog has cloth diaper friendly items and has a minimum prize package of $25 per winner and after visiting my giveaway, make sure you use the linky below to take a look at the other blogs to see what they have to offer for you!
I am so excited to introduce a company to you that makes stylish products to make your life easier.




Snuggy Baby makes Ring Slings, Stretchy Wraps, Doll Slings, Cloth Diapers, and Wet Bags. SnuggyBaby Cloth diapers have a unique patent pending feature that allows them to adjust to really fit babies 8-35 lbs. They adjust the waist, rise AND WIDTH of the diaper which allows the legs to be small enough to fit newborns and still grow large enough to fit late potty trainers. It really is a one size diaper where you don’t have to buy the newborn size until your baby grows into the diaper or a second set of diapers because your baby outgrew the ones that fit him as a newborn.
And of course, all of the Snuggy Baby products come in lots of fun prints.

Save On Pampers With A High Value Coupon In This Sunday’s Paper! #PampersSavings

This post and giveaway were made possible by iConnect and Pampers. I was compensated for my participation in this campaign, but all opinions are 100% mine.
My youngest is in diapers and honestly I can’t wait until he is in undies! We just started the potty training process and he isn't as eager as I would like. But that's okay, no pressure. I use to coupon and still do for baby products like diapers and wipes! I have been a huge fan of the Pampers brand since my daughter was an infant and on May 29, 2016 there will be a high value coupon you can use in grocery and discount stores where baby products are sold.

Emojis for Mom - Momoji Keyboard by Luvs App + Giveaway

This review and giveaway was made possible by Connect Influencer Management and Luvs. I was compensated for my participation in this campaign, but all opinions are 100% mine.

Have you ever been send a text and you are swiping through your emojis, then you keep swiping and swiping because you realize the one you want just isn't there. As a mom, I have this issue a LOT! Sometimes you just don't want to text it out, but you need to give a visual somehow. That's where the Momoji Keyboard by Luvs comes in. With this app, you can easily express all the emotions that come with real life parenting.

 
Peanut is going though stages of almost being a two year old. I have no idea how to describe that to people. He is still a baby in so many ways, but almost a toddler. Not quite at the "Terrible Two" phase yet, but he has his moments. That's why I am loving the The Momoji Keyboard by Luvs which is available for download on the Apple Store or Google Play.

Capture the Joy of Movement with Huggies



Since my sister-in-law has become a stay-at-home mom with her second born, I have been going and visiting her more. It's nice to have another SAHMom to talk to during the day and she really is like my own sister. My son and youngest niece are nine months apart in age. Making her nine months old. Now that they are both mobile, anytime we can get them together it is interesting to say the least. 
Watching my children and their cousins play together, is truly a joy. My niece is so cute, she thinks she is as big as everyone else and is always getting into everything. She climbs on everything and has even already started taking steps, that's how active she is.  She wiggles and she squirms, but my sister-in-law's number one concern is making sure her diaper stays on and keeps her dry.

Pampers NEW Cruisers Review + $75 BRU Gift Card Giveaway #Ready2POP

This post is sponsored by P&G. All opinions are my own.
 
Did you know that Pampers has updated their Cruisers? Pampers' Cruisers also feature Sesame Street® character designs and include wide, stretchy sides to provide their best fit yet! The 3-channel absorbent core was developed with parents’ feedback in mind & represents 4 years of research.


They are a little big because I was sent a size 5 which isn't what my little man normally wears. He usually wears a size four and only because he is a heavy wetter. He still had no accidents even though they were a little on the large size for him.

Staying Dry on a Budget with Kidgets Diapers

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Family Dollar.

Peanut is walking, talking, and a hand full at times. He gets into everything! We still use disposable diapers when we are on the go and at night. But I don't want to break the bank when buying diapers. He has always been a heavy wetter (especially at night), so finding a quality diaper that can meet my needs without breaking the bank is very important to me.


We recently had the opportunity to test out Kidgets diapers that are found at Family Dollar. We have been using them for about a week or so now.

Keeping My Baby Ultra Dry at Night

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Huggies®. All opinions are 100% mine.

Peanut is almost on the verge of walking. He is SO close, but he just doesn't quite have the balance yet. But that doesn't mean he doesn't manage to get into everything and boy is that kid FAST! He has also always been a heavy wetter, so finding a quality diaper that will meet both of his needs is a high priority. We have been testing out Huggies® Snug & Dry Ultra Diapers available only at Walmart for a few days now. Not only is Peanut very active during the day, but he is an extremely roly-poly sleeper at night.
 
Huggies Snug and Dry Ultra Diapers Review
Huggies® Snug and Dry Ultra Diapers not only locks away wetness better with the unique quilted inner liner, but they are very soft as well. The tabs seem longer to wrap around him more snuggly too. The Trusted Leak Lock System with quick-absorbing layers has been lasting all night, so no more mid-night diaper changes for this mama!

Have a Leak Free Holiday with Luvs + Giveaway

This review and giveaway was made possible by Double Duty Divas and Luvs. I was compensated for my participation in this campaign, but all opinions are 100% mine.

Friday we went and saw Santa. How embarrassing would it have been if Peanut's diaper had leaked all over Santa! Poor thing would have been on the naughty list for sure! ;)

No tears, but both kiddos were a little intimidated.
That's where Luvs comes in. Luvs diapers is a trusted name in baby care and they know that the holiday season is full of stressful moments, but they don't want diaper leaks be one of them. This holiday, Luvs wants everyone to celebrate a Leak-Free Holiday.

Awesome Blossom Cloth Diaper Review {Merry #FluffMas Giveaway Hop, Ends 12/1}

I received a complimentary Awesome Blossom Cloth Diaper to provide this review. All opinions are my own.
 
When I was contact by Awesome Blossom to review one of their new prints, I was pretty excited. I don't have a very big stash so we do a combo between sposies and cloth. When I got the email, they described themselves as "a WAHM company striving to make the world a better place one less landfill diaper at a time". I just love that. I received an Awesome Blossom Cloth Diaper in Elephants print to review.
 
Doesn't he look super cute in it. :D

Walgreen's Well Beginnings Baby Products Review #MomsMeet

I received complimentary Walgreen's Well Beginnings baby products as part of a campaign through Moms Meet to facilitate this review. All opinions are my own.


When I received the opportunity to try out Walgreen's Well Beginnings baby products through Moms Meet, I was very excited. I have heard wonderful things from moms on Instagram. Plus I love trying out new baby products with my family. I received a jumbo pack of size 4 Well Beginnings diapers, 72 ct sensitive wipes, oral electrolyte drink, baby wash, and 2 $5 off Well Beginnings formula coupons (not featured in picture above).

Seventh Generation Baby Review {Win a 6-Month Supply of SeventhGeneration's Free & Clear Diapers, Ends 7/1}

I received the following products complimentary from Seventh Generation through Modern Mom. All opinions are my own.

 
 
Last month we received Seventh Generation Diapers and Wipes to try out on Peanut. I have heard such wonderful things about this company, but haven't had the opportunity to test them out. My daughter had such a terrible time with disposables because of all the chemicals, so I was VERY excited to try out their toxic free baby products.

A Letter to My 1st Time Mom Pregnant Self

I received a similar prize pack from P&G in order to share this giveaway. All opinions are my own.

Dear First Time Mom Pregnant Self,

      You think you know everything because you were a Nanny for five years and worked at a day care before that. But 24/7/365 with no pay check is a COMPLETELY different story. First of all, don't sweat the small stuff. If your daughter wants to sleep with every stuffed thing in the entire house, count your blessings that at least she's willing to sleep. Nurse every two hours until your milk comes in. Pumping sucks literally, but it can help too. Don't worry about bed sharing some nights. Or even most nights. It won't last forever and one day you'll miss it. Pacifiers are your friend. Get the dog trained BEFORE the baby is born. Make time for your husband, make sure to find ways to include him, and make him be included whether he wants to or not - that means making him change diapers. He will thank you later. Breastfeeding is hard. There will be ups and downs during that entire first year, but you can do it. Take a bath with the baby because at least you'll kind of get one too. Do at least a load of laundry a day, but don't sweat it if you miss a day because babies don't keep. Make sure the car seat's chest clip is at arm pit level. Don't let others pressure you to do something that your mommy instincts are against. Stock up on diapers before hand, not when you run out and have to use a shirt. Wipe warmers are pointless and waste wipes. Pampers Swaddlers are awesome because they have the color-changing wetness indicator that makes it easy for you (and Hubby) to tell when it's time to change a diaper, they are one of the few that won't break your little one out (this was my experience, yours may differ), they are Pampers' softest diaper, the #1 choice among hospitals, and Pampers has their wonderful Gifts to Grow program.

Yes my boy uses a pink tummy time mat. :)


I loved putting Sweet Pea in Pampers Swaddlers and although she was a little baby, I was sad when she grew out of them. And Peanut is 14.4 lbs at 3 1/2 months old and will now get to experience Pampers Swaddlers longer because they are now available up to size 5 at Babies “R” Us! Pampers Swaddlers give your baby comfort and protection they’ll love for even longer. With up to 12 hours of overnight protection, Swaddlers help you make your baby as comfortable as possible. PLUS you can save some money by buying  Swaddlers Super Economy Pack and Economy Plus Pack which are now available.

Enter to #win a $150 Babies-R-Us Gift Card & a 64 ct. of Pampers wipes! Ends 7/8
