Day 4

Moms

Meet Gussy.  Gussy sews.  Gussy sews ruffles.  I heart her ruffles big time!  

These bags by Gussy Sews are so cute and pretty unique.  They would make great totes, diaper bags or purses.  I don’t know about you but I love supporting small businesses selling handmade items. I also like the idea that I can have something that not many other people are carrying around.  I recently went to the Relevant Conference where I got to see some of these great Gussy Sews bags in person and now I can’t wait to get one of my own.

note: if you want to order a Gussy Sews Bag for Christmas do so by 12/3 because that is their Christmas order deadline.

Babies

I think this Hug and Hide Owl Activity Toy by Skip Hop is super cute and tons of fun for a little one!  The owl’s wings open to reveal a baby owl that you can hide in the mommy’s pocket, a mirror and 2 teethers.  For ages 3 months+.  $18 at Amazon.com.

 Kids

 
We love the playground balls from Crocodile Creek They have great designs like ballerinas and ladybugs for girls or the fire truck and dinosaurs for boys.  They come in two sizes, 5″ and 7″.  The 5″ balls are great for smaller kids with little hands while the 7″ size is good for any age.  These balls are textured so they are easy to grip and they bounce well. They are made of rubber and contain no PVC, latex or vinyl.  The 5″ balls sell for about $6.50 & the 7″ for about $10.

Gift Guide Day 3

Welcome to day 3 of the Mommy Kudos Gift Guide.  In case you missed it, check out the previous days here and be sure to enter the giveaway to win a $25 Amazon gift certificate from day 1.

Day 3

Moms
Moms if you haven’t tried Mama Mio products you are in for a treat. I recently got to try the Mama Mio OMega Body Buff and I have a new favorite body scrub!  This stuff smells A-MAZING and gently scrubs your skin to reveal super soft skin.  It is even gentle enough for your face.

Mama Mio has products for face and body including many specialty products like Boob Tube (for firming up), Shrink To Fit (cellulite cream), Get Waisted (body shaper), and Goodbye Stretch Marks. They have some great sets for pregnancy and new moms too! Every Mama Mio product is paraben free, petroleum free, phthalates free, sodium laureth and sodium lauryl sulphate free, colourant free, synthetic fragrance free and xenoestrogen free.  Even their fragrances are natural.

Babies

California Baby is my very favorite baby shampoo, body wash and bubble bath brand.  Their products are safe and natural.  There’s none of the yucky stuff in them that isn’t good for babies skin and, get this, their bubble bath comes with a bubble wand!  How much fun is it to blow bubbles to baby when they are in the bath? Of course, the fun isn’t limited to babies; my little kids love this too and can blow their own bubbles in the bath.

 Kids

My tween and teen girls love Sparklehearts for Girls. I did a review for them about a year ago and we have been purchasing each of their products ever since.  As a mom, I love that they are natural and made from organic ingredients and they get my girls squeaky clean and smelling sweet.  My girls like them because they feel pampered when using them. All of the products smell wonderful.  The sparkle in the lotion is a nice touch.

The gift set ($13.99) makes a great gift or you can give the individual products as stocking stuffers.

Stay tuned for a Sparklehearts for Girls Giveaway later today for a chance to win a set of each of the Sparklehearts for girls products.

Disclosure: I previously received both Mama Mio Body Buff and Sparklehearts for Girls Body Wash for free to review.  My opinions are my own.  I have included some affiliate links in this post to help support Mommy Kudos.  Thank you!

Making Memories and Taking Time Off

by
 My 6 hanging out by a big tree

Did you notice that I lost steam and ended my gift guide early?  Well, it isn’t so much that I lost steam but that blogging is a lot of work and when you add 6 kids into the mix it can get a bit crazy (especially this time of year).  I would far rather enjoy this season than stress about posts not going up.  So I decided to end it a bit early.  We’ll see how long it is before I commit to 30 days of anything again without having the posts done well in advance (Although I do have a series up my sleeve for the new year that I am currently working on…).

I decided to take the whole month of December off of blogging to make time for the truly important things in life.  I will be busy cuddling little ones (and hopefully big kids too), reading,  tickle parties, cookie baking and memory making.  I will be sharing some posts from the archives while I am away.

I pray you have a lovely Christmastime full of love, joy and peace.  I will be back in time to wish you a Happy New Year.  In the meantime, you can connect with me on Twitter, Facebook or send me an email. I would love to hear from you!

You can see all of the Mommy Kudos Gift Guide items here.  If you need some inspiration there are some really great gift ideas for moms, babies and kids each day.  Also be on the lookout for my Ultimate Stocking Stuffer List (updated from the archives).

Blessings to you and yours!!
