Getting Ready for Baby {Ingenuity Washable Playard Review}
Saturday, March 1, 2014
I received the below product from Ingenuity complimentary to provide this review.
As always all opinions are 100% my own.
I had a playard or "pack-n-play" with my daughter. I watched my friend's little girl for almost two years and until I insisted she bring her playard, her daughter slept in ours. We took it on our first two family vacations and to the lake SweetPea's first summer. I had two issues with this playard, it had a TON of extra pieces that didn't fit into the carry bag and it was a pain to clean. That's why I was excited to receive Ingenuity's Washable Playard to review. Every fabric that baby touches is 100% washable! PLUS with so many things that are NOT gender neutral out on the market and with us not finding out the gender of baby number two before delivery (yes we are still team green), it is nice to find that the Marlo fashion is a truly neutral color scheme.
Assembly wasn't very hard at all. There weren't a lot of pieces to keep track of either. Which made assembly with a three year old a lot easier. Of course SweetPea insisted on helping and then wanted to put her babies in it as soon as everything was put together.
This has to be my favorite feature. The fact that is 100% washable so even the fabric on the mat comes off easily and can be thrown in the washer! Between my friend's little girl and SweetPea, there were tons of little stains from random bodily fluids on our old one that as much as I tried to get them off, they are still visible. My other favorite feature is the One Less Step™ feature which lets you fold the playard without removing the bassinet. With my old one, you had to take everything apart and it didn't fit into the bag unless you did.
Here's a picture of some more zippers where you can take all the fabric off. And the fact that it is all 100% MACHINE washable fabrics zip off in under five minutes to help remove airborne allergens, dust, dirt and more with ease which makes my life so much easier! So when we go to the lake this spring/summer, I won't have to worry pollen (we are allergic), sand, or dirt staying in it for weeks.
It has a ton of storage like other their other playards (my old one didn't have storage), comes with a Just Right Height changing table which is raised to help make diaper changes comfortable and pivots out of the way when not in use, so diaper changes are a breeze. We have stairs in our house and with all of the diaper changes that newborns need, I like having everything downstairs in an organized spot. The removable Dream Centre features soft fabrics with breathable mesh and an overhead toy bar with two plush toys which will make nap times so much easier as well.
It includes a very cute owl toy bar that pivots to make it easy for baby to view. It also has a Soothing Sounds Station™ features five melodies and three nature sounds that even my three year old loves. It has wheels which offer simple maneuverability that my old playard didn't have either.
Also make sure to follow Ingenuity on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, and YouTube for more info on new products and fun giveaways!
I can't wait for peanut to get here. We have about three more weeks until we get to meet our precious little bundle and I feel so blessed with all the amazing products like Ingenuity's Washable Playard to help make our transition from a family of three to a family of FOUR so much easier.

***UPDATE 10/3/14***
We are bringing this to Florida. TWO things I noticed.
1. The bassinet part is kind of hard to take off.
2. I wish the organizer could come off separately instead of with the whole bottom half, so I could keep it filled when traveling and just wash it if need be.

Bringing Home Baby: Preparing an Older Sibling
Friday, February 28, 2014
Wow. This pregnancy is going by so fast. I am 37 weeks pregnant today (full term) and tomorrow is the first day of the month I'm due! There are some great articles about how to prepare your older child for a new sibling. Some of my favorites are from fellow bloggers. I have been trying multiple techniques to prepare SweetPea. I want a non-medicated birth this time around, but my true fear is after the baby is here and how my big baby is going to react. Here are a few great reads that I have compiled since I have no experience with this one. :)

I love the idea of giving her a hospital gift bag from the baby at the hospital. So I decided to make SweetPea one. I found a ton of cute ideas online and took many from those I found on Pinterest. Here is what is in our bag:
Twigtale Personalized Storybook - Big Sister Lizzie {Review}
CafePress.com Big Sister Shirt {Review of CafePress}
Nuby Squid Squirter {Nuby Reviews} - I received a shipment for being a Nuby Mommy blogger for the new baby, but wanted to make sure I got something for SweetPea too. This goes hand in hand with getting them a gift when the baby gets a gift so they don't feel left out at showers and such. PLUS, a bath toy for her Aunite's house since she doesn't have any!
Little Cosmetics Pretend Makeup {Review} - something to play with at Auntie's house
Work books, coloring book, and crayons for hospital
Flash cards for hospital
Kandoo Hand Wash - to wash those hands so many times!
Sidewalk Chalk - so she (again) has some toys to play with at Auntie's house.
How did you prepare your children for a new baby?
