Nanny to Mommy

I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Amazon Studios. I received a product sample to facilitate my review and promotional item to thank me for participating.

I personally believe television can be used as a great educational tool. I believe it isn't used properly that is why there is a negative stigma about it. Your child's television time should be limited and monitored. Let them watch educational shows were they learn something, whether it be the alphabet or sharing. You should talk to your children afterwards about what they've just seen and make sure they are taking what they should away from it. I understand this isn't always practical, but if you can't be there with your child, like if you are making dinner or breastfeeding a baby, you can put on something you know has a goal of developing creative thinking in children.

"Our Born Smart Newborn diaper is an organic AIO diaper that fits most babies 6-16lbs. The interior of the diaper boasts 3 layers of organic cotton sewn in to the diaper and an additional 4 layer snap-in insert (included). The unique design allows for easy cleaning and quick drying, with enough absorbency to grow with your newborn. This diaper also has one rise setting, an umbilical notch, and a hidden pocket under the lining to add additional absorbency if needed."

We used ours for our first family pictures when my son was only a week old. He weighed 7 pounds 3 ounces at birth and didn't lose any weight in the hospital, so he probably had gained a few ounces by this point. The diaper fit a wonderfully and looked so adorable on him. Here are some of the shots where you can see it. (Photos by Dawn Black Photography.)

You can purchase Smart Bottoms Cloth Diapers on Amazon or directly from their site! My little man isn't so little anymore and he out grew his beautiful newborn diaper quickly. But I love the beautiful blue and that we were able to cloth diaper from the very beginning. The snaps make everything super easy to make sure the fit is perfect.

Have you heard of The Baby Box Co.? The Baby Box Co. is inspired by the 75 year old tradition in Finland. The state provides expectant mothers a box of essentials that are known as a “starter kit”. Research has shown that once the boxes were introduced in Finland, infant mortality rates plummeted. The Baby Box Co. has taken the concept of the “starter kit” box and brought it to the United States in a unique and exciting way! Baby Boxes are an essential tool that can make life easier for new moms! You get all the basics that you'll need delivered right to your door, so you don't have to stress. The boxes contain onesies, hats, bibs, pacifiers, swaddle blankets, baby shampoo/body wash, and more. They've spent countless hours researching what the best brands and products are for infants so that you don't have to!

Kind of disappointed in myself on this trip. I was distracted at check out and they were out of some of the items I really wanted/needed. Plus my printer was having connection issues so I didn't get all of the high value coupons from Coupons.com before they were gone. So not my best after all that planning. :(

Anyways here is what I got. Please remember between the two stores I go they double coupons, do half price BOGO, & accept Target/Ingles/Kroger as competitors.
