Day 5

Moms

 I have been seeing Kelly Moore Bags everywhere online lately and I have to confess: I want one.  Specifically I want the Libby Bag in sapphire (shown above). 



Just in case you haven’t heard about Kelly Moore Bags I’ll tell you a little more about them. If you are a photographer (or just like to carry your camera around everywhere), and have a plain Jane camera bag, you will fall in love with these bags.  They look like purses and have dividers in them to keep your camera equipment safe. They are water-resistant and have a fully adjustable strap.  There are also plenty of pockets and compartments for the other things you need to carry with you on a daily basis.  So now you can always be prepared with your camera by your side (looking mighty cute) and everything else you need too.  These bags range from $159 to $249 and you can get them at KellyMooreBag.com.



Babies



I think BabyLegs are pretty genius.  They make diaper changes really easy since there is nothing to pull off and on, they protect little knees when babies are crawling, and they make potty training easy (once again, no pulling pants on and off taking up valuable time). Of course those are some of the practical reasons.  The best thing about them is they are supper cute!  There are so many designs to choose from.



Kids
My kids absolutely love the highly entertaining What’s In The Bible DVDs.  I love them because these DVDs tell the real storries that are in the Bible. They were created by Phil Vischer who was also creator of Veggie Tales and they are equally as funny, creative and entertaining.

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.

SparkleHearts For Girls Full Size Set Giveaway

My girls and I are big fans of Sparklehearts for girls.  They had me at their fun, girly packaging that promises natural and organic ingredients.  Let’s face it, most girls like pretty, flowery, girly embellishments and Sparklehearts does a great job of delivering just that.  Lots of natural and organic products are a bit boring for girls because they often cannot compete with the eye candy of other products that are full of icky stuff. Sparklehearts, however, is safe for your skin and very appealing to the eye. Sparklehearts products do not contain any artificial colors, parabens, phthalates, or sulfates and the sweet scents they use are natural.

The scents are as sweet as the bottles promise. My girls love that Sparklehearts are just for them and I’ve noticed slightly more frequent showers once we started using it.

I also love to give Sparklehearts for Girls as gifts.  In fact I am going to be filling my girls stockings with them this year.

To purchase Sparklehearts Natural Beauty For Girls products you can visit their website. They have a great gift set for $13.99.  Or you can purchase the body lotion, body wash, shampoo, conditioner & detangler separately.

Enter with Rafflecopter for a chance to WIN a set of each of the Sparklehearts for girls full size products.  If you are reading this in email or on a mobile device you will need to go to the main site to see the entry form below.

Gift Guide Day 3

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.

Cars 2 has just come out and this movie was a big hit with my kids ages 5 all the way up to 12.  Both my girls and my son enjoyed.  In fact, I have been asked repeatedly when it was coming out on DVD.  I was hoping to make it a Christmas gift but may not make it that long since my son now knows it is out.
