Achieving My Total Wellness Goals with Nature Made

This post was sponsored by Nature Made® as a part of a Blog Blast for Influence Central.

Staying on track with your wellness goals can be hard, especially if you don't see any visible signs or the scale moving. Being a mom can be stressful, but that doesn't mean I don't have non-scale victories that are helping me achieve my total wellness goals. There are many ways that I have noticed that I am working towards my wellness goals. I have noticed that I have increased energy which means I have been able to get more done around the house and exercise more.


 I have also been taking Nature Made VitaMelts Vitamin B12 that I bought at Walmart. Vitamin B12 can help increase energy and Nature Made is the nation’s #1 best-selling brand for quality vitamins, minerals and supplements* to help support nutritional gaps. Walmart was a great place to purchase my Nature Made vitamins because they have everyday low prices and I don't have to wait for a sale.

Change Up Your Health Routine

This post was sponsored by Nature Made® as a part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central.

Do you remember back in January when I made all of those resolutions? Did you make any? How have you been sticking to yours? Well, I am hitting a funk of sorts. I don't know whether it is the pollen or my lack of energy, but I have been slipping back into some old habits.


 My main resolution I have been lacking on is my decision to get my health on track. I felt like I was bored. So here are my healthy habits that I am doing to get me out of my slump. And even if you didn't make any health resolutions, just because it is March doesn't mean you can't start thinking about healthy habits!

Common Childhood Allergies to Watch Out For

This is a sponsored guest post.
If you’ve noticed that your child is coughing and sneezing a lot, often complains of a poorly tummy, always seems to break out in sore rashes and spots, or often can’t see for watery eyes, they may be one of the unlucky 1 in 13 to suffer from a food allergy. Unfortunately, the most common childhood allergies also tend to be things that can be found in abundance around the average home, and you may not even realize the allergy exists until the symptoms are already there. If the allergy is particularly severe, you may find yourself shocked if you aren't already in the know.

Our First ER Visit

So on Friday, we went to the park as a family because the Hubby was off of work. Peanut fell and when I picked him up, blood was pouring out of his mouth. When he finally let us have a peak, it looked like a chunk of his tongue was missing. Both Hubby and I agreed, we needed to go to the ER. 

Called ahead and they were rude on the phone. That should have been my first clue. Peanut was crying, blood kept pouring out the whole way there.
 
 

Protecting Against the Sun with Blue Lizard Sunscreen


Did you know that snow and ice actually reflect the sun so you are hit with UV rays twice? Did you know that even on cloudy days you are exposed to the sun?


This  is why it is so important to still wear sunscreen even in the colder winter months. When you wouldn't normally think about sunscreen. I was recently sent different sunscreen products from Blue Lizard. I have heard about their products for a while now and even received a sample in the Sun & Fun Box from 16 Minute Club. I was excited to try what else they had to offer.

Making New Year Resolution Progress with Progresso + Giveaway



I have always tried making New Year resolutions that would stick. And it seems great and really easy at first because you are motivated, but then by week three of the new year you are back to old habits. That's why I have decided to make smaller goals for myself this year, instead of traditional "resolutions". Easy to set, so I won't be weighed down by the heavy obstacle.

My 2016 New Year Goals:

When Children Need Extra Vitamins
 
As your children grow up, you need to make sure they’re getting the vitamins and minerals they need to develop healthy and strong bodies and minds. Indeed, there’s a wealth of information dedicated to the subject of children’s nutrition. Knowing where and when to get the necessary vitamins for children who need extra minerals is something parents should learn, in order to give their kids the best chance in life as they can.

Rainbow Light Power Sours Review + Coupon

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

It's that time of year! Sweaters, boots, and the occasional cold. Yuck, but it's just part of it. I like to give my family multi-vitamins to help boost their immune systems. I recently received Rainbow Light Power Sours Multivitamin Gummies to review with my family. Even my hubby is taking them. And they are all loving them.
 
 
Rainbow Light vitamins are made with organic, non-GMO ingredients, which is something that I have been actively trying to select as options for myself and my family. Another thing that I like about Rainbow Light is that they use 100% up cycled plastic for their bottles, which means they keep over 10 million plastic bottles out of our landfills and waste systems!

Uses of Coconut Oil for Baby

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

I was recently introduced to coconut oil by my sister-in-law as a treatment for diaper rash and then I started doing a little research and found that there are SO MANY uses of coconut oil for natural remedies. I recently had the opportunity to review some and so I decided to share the many uses I have found.
