Woombie Air and Mox Mittens Review and Giveaway


The Woombie Air is one of the coolest swaddles I've ever seen.  It was designed by a nurse with both safety and comfort in mind. It's perfect for all seasons and allows for proper ventilation.  So no matter what season your baby is born in, the Woombie Air will come in handy.   Heat can easily escape allowing for your baby's body temperature to be properly regulated.  The Woombie Air Swaddle is easy to use and safer than swaddling with a traditional blanket.  

I have always swaddled my babies and I truly believe that it has helped keep them calm and relaxed after coming into this crazy world.  The Woombie Air Swaddle is just going to make my job that much easier.  I plan on using this little gem from my moment my little man is home from the hospital.  


Mox Mittens retail for $14.  They are available in several colors and sizes that range from newborn to 36 months.  These are definitely going to come in handy once my little one makes his arrival.  Clipping their little fingers nails can sometimes just make them sharp.  These Mox Mittens are a great way to keep your baby from scratching himself.  I love that they are long which will make it more difficult for your little one to wiggle them off like a traditional mitten.  

Now for your chance to win a Woombie Air and a set of Mox Mittens!!!

Giveaway!! Baby Journey's Comfy Cozy Tub & Towel Warmer: A Little Luxury For Our Little Ones



Baby Journey's Promise to you:
"Our innovative products offer safe and insightful solutions to make everyday parenting easier so you can focus on what matters most...your baby"


The Comfy Cozy Tub & Towel Warmer set is the perfect gift for every new mom.  This tub grows with baby.  The sling cradles newborns and the extra large tub will accommodate your child up to 2 years old.  The detachable legs adjust the height of the tub so you can reach baby easily.  

The towel warmer is a little bit of added luxury that can be used for the entire family.  It can warm a full sized towel in 10 minutes.  It also warms hooded baby towels, onesies, and blankets safely.  It is also equipped with auto shut off, so that is one less thing a new mommy or daddy has to remember.  




As a mother, I have had many tubs.  I had a sling tub to bath my newborn in when they couldn't be submerged in water.  I had a regular baby tub and when my son's out grew that, I had a tub that was inflatable.  This set eliminates the need for multiple tubs and as it grows with baby, mommy's are happy  they don't need to make additional purchases.  

I love this tub! Now that I am expecting another little man in just a few months, I won't need to pull out an additional tub for him.  I can simply use the sling to bathe the newborn and retract it when it's Declan's (my one year old) turn.  When there is so much baby gear everywhere after a new baby comes home, an item that can be used on two of my kids is awesome.  Anything that can make my life easier, I greatly appreciate.  This has already been an amazing tub and Declan loves it.  I can't wait to use it with our newest addition in just 10 weeks!

The Baby Journey Comfy Cozy Tub & Towel Warmer set make the perfect baby shower gift and can be purchased at Babies R' Us, Buy Buy Baby, and Baby Depot.  

But here is your chance to win this for yourself or as a gift for someone you know who is expecting or trying to conceive.

Juppy Baby Walker: Help Your Baby Walk Without Hurting Your Back

Don't break your back to help your baby walk, let the Juppy Baby Walker do the work. 



To be honest, when I first saw this a few months I thought it was gimmicky and something that was totally unnecessary to purchase.  Fast forward to now, I'm 7 1/2 months pregnant and my 12 month old still needs help walking.  Bending over is no longer as easy as it once was and my back hurts twice as quickly.  

The Juppy Baby Walker is like a harness for baby, helping to teach them balance while building their confidence in walking.  It has 2 straps that adjusts for heights between 4'11 and 6'11.  The straps have plush hand grips to insure your comfort while helping baby walk.

For me, the Juppy Baby Walker has been amazing.  It has helped Declan walk, while easing my discomfort that caused me additional lower back pain.  While it's not something we pull out all the time.  We have been using the Juppy around the house and walking to the mail box.  He loves it and you can tell he feels like a big boy and he's proud of himself.  


Thank you so much for reading and checking out my thoughts on the Juppy!

Boba Family: Boba Carrier 3G Review and Giveaway

*Disclaimer:  I did receive a Boba Family Baby Carrier  for purposes of this review.  I did not receive any monetary compensation.  All thoughts and opinions are 100% my own.  My loyalty is to my readers and always will be. 


I have long understood the importance of baby wearing.  With my first son, I did it purely for bonding, and that on it's own was an amazing experience.  When my second son came along, he had collic.  It was suggested to me by his pediatrician that wearing him in a baby carrier or wrap would help to soothe him and keep him calm.  Since I would have tried anything, I started the journey of baby wearing and I was amazing.  I would wear him around the house and suddenly I was able to get dishes, laundry, and vacuuming done.  When I started wearing him out in public, I was able to take my time shopping and get more things accomplished.  He was relaxed and in what I called "his happy place"

I recently received the Boba Carrier 3G and think it's amazing.  

My thoughts:
It was really hard for me to choose a color because Boba Family had so many great color choices.  But I ultimately went with the Glacier.  I like the fact that it was gender neutral and that my husband would enjoy the color as well.  He doesn't particularly like to wear patterns.  

(Glacier shown below, image coursety of Boba Family)


The Boba 3G Carrier fit like a dream.  It was so easy to strap on and get my 11 month old into.  He enjoyed sitting so close and loved the effortless piggy back ride.  I was extremely comfortable using the Boba 3G to carry Declan around.  I have tried other carriers in the past that felt awkward and lacked support. This was a pleasure to  use for both me and my little man.  The padded straps fit my shoulders perfectly and didn't dig into my skin. 

I found that adjusting the straps was extremely easy, which was a huge bonus considering my husband and I will switch back and forth.   The rear clip is military grade, so I know it was going to keep my little man safe.  This will fit moms and dads from 5'0 to 6'3.  I'm 5'1 and it fits great.  

The Boba 3G is all about accommodating a toddler but I should mention that it will also accommodate a newborn without an insert.  There is a detachable hood, which I haven't used yet but it will come in handy when I'm nursing and on the go.  

The carrier does have 3 pockets but they are a bit small.  But you can fit a debit or credit card and a small set of keys.  The pockets aren't perfect but they work.  It also comes with detachable foot straps but my son's legs don't fit into them just yet.  

Overall, I have loved the Boba Carrier 3G and recommend it to other parents looking for a soft carrier for their baby or toddler.  

I have to apologize for the lack of personal photos, but I am currently 6 months pregnant.  I will be doing a future post with new baby on baby wearing.

Tweedlebug Boutique: The Most Adorable Hospital Hats For Babies

Tweedlebug hospital hats are quite possibly one of the cutest things I have seen for a newborn.  Show your new bundle of joy off in style with these precious hats.



Tweedlebug Boutique hospital hats are your traditional style hospital hats with a little added style.  They are individually handcrafted in the USA, so each hat is unique.  Which is exactly what all of our little angels deserve.  What makes these hats ten times more special is that they were invented by a mommy for her daughter and now she is sharing her incredible idea with us all.


This hat has the same look at your traditional hospital hat but with an added bow and pink ribbon detail.  This is the perfect way to show off your new baby girl from the moment she is born.



This hat is blue and white stripes and couldn't be more perfect for welcoming your little boy.  Since most hospitals have the same hat that they use for boys and girls, the Gavin hat is sure to make your little boy stand out.  


These hats are a great gift idea for newly expectant moms.  I know I can not wait to see my new little guy wearing the adorable Gavin hat.  Tweedlebug Boutique offers ten different styles of hats, to check them out and purchase one for yourself or a friend please click here.

Thank you guys so much for reading!
