Adventures at Dragon*Con 2015 #BehindTheBlogger

My family and I went to Dragon*Con over Labor Day weekend. If you don't know what Dragon*Con is, it's the Southeast's largest sci-fi, fantasy, and gaming convention. This made my 10th year going. This was the first year that we got our own hotel room (didn't share with friends), brought the kids, and were able to go the whole weekend. It starts on Friday and ends on Monday, but most people get there on Thursday (like we did).

Thursday with Storm Troopers. Friday with The Pirate Fairy and Rapunzel.
 
I babywore a LOT. Thank goodness for my LILLEbaby. I got a lot of comments about it. Some just admired how cute he was, some said how hard it must be to bring kids to con, and then there were just random comments. I enjoyed it though. It was a great way to carry him around and he would get so excited when he saw me start putting the carrier on. It was really cute.

Yes, those are Star Wars suck pads. :D
 
Dragon*Con has changed a lot since we have had children.

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.

Brian the Pekingese Pajamas Review {#ApparelForFall Giveaway ends 9/21}

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

Before I had my son, I was able to work with Brian the Pekingese on a pajama review and I am so excited that they have let me review them again because how cute are these to in coordinating pajamas?!
 
 
I loved the concept of how Brian the Pekinese plush was created, here's the story:
"One day, my mom and dad came home from the hospital with a little baby boy. I had never seen a person that small before. And it sure cried a lot. At bedtime, he seemed to like having me in the room next to his crib. He was relaxed, and so was I. That is when my parents got the idea for Brian the Pekingese® pajamas and plush toys.

Excited for Vacation with the SUKKIRi Baby Ring Sling

I love baby wearing. I love having my hands free, but still snuggle my baby close when they need it. But none of my carriers are really able to go in water. And at the beach or by the pool, being having hands free would be awesome. That's why I was so excited when I received the SUKKIRi Baby Ring Sling to review. We enjoyed using it for most of the summer, but I'm really excited to use it when we go to the beach over fall break in less than two weeks!

Baby Days at Sam's Club

This is a sponsored post. All opinions are my own.
 
When I go shopping, I am all about saving money. Recently I had the opportunity to check out Sam's Club for all their baby savings. During the month of September, Sam's Clubs across the country will be celebrating Baby Month. Caring for your baby and your budget is easy at Sam's Club by saving on big packs for your little one everyday. I love the idea of bulk shopping, especially on diapers, wipes, and other essentials for baby because that's means you won't have to worry about another shopping trip for at least a little while.
 
 
My whole family shops at Sam's Club for baby products on a regular basis. It's where my mother-in-law bought my niece her Sophie the Giraffe and all of the grand children most of their clothes. Sam's Club was my sister-in-law's first stop after they were on the way home from the hospital with their second children to stock up on diapers and wipes.
