That led us to Crazy Cups. Crazy Cups believes in offering a wide (HUGE) variety of flavors and doesn’t forget about those who need to stick with the decaf version.

Thank you to Mebak for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own.

For Valentine’s Day, I decided to get my husband a massage gun. He has a physically demanding job that can take its toll on his body. He doesn’t make a habit of complaining, I can tell by the way he moves that he is feeling a little beat up. I thought a massage gun would be a nice way to show him that I appreciate all of his hard work.

Thank you to Masami for sending me product in exchange for review purposes. All opinions are my own. 

I have always looked up to those who use a “no-poo” method for their hair. My hair is on the thinner side and whenever I tried to go no-poo, the detox period seemed to never end and I was met with an incredibly itchy irritated scalp that was beyond a manageable grease level. So instead I decide to use natural shampoos and so often my hair is clean, but I long for the salon feel of my hair.

You’ve most likely heard of weighted blankets, but you might be wondering what the purpose of sleeping with one is. I had heard they could help with stress and sensory issues and who couldn’t use a little help dealing with stress? Something you might not know about weighted blankets is that they provide deep touch pressure stimulation.

Thank you goes to Loog for sending me product in exchange for review purposes. All opinions are my own. 

My son has been pretty interested in music from a very young age. I’m not sure if his love for music is due to his dad always playing music around him or if it’s just passed on through his genetics. We tried a violin class when he was younger and while he really enjoyed it we didn’t know anything about violin which made practicing with him more difficult.

While stuck in Covid-19 quarantine, my daughters and I have been doing a lot of baking. One of our go-to’s baking treats is chocolate chip cookies. We had a keto chocolate chip cookie recipe we liked, but we didn’t love it. We played around with the recipe making minor changes until we came up with what we feel is the best keto chocolate chip cookie recipe.

Ingredients:
4 TBS melted butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg
1/4 tsp apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup Lakanto Powdered Munk Fruit
1 1/2 cup super-fine almond flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup Lily’s Chocolate Chips

Directions: Preheat your oven to 350°.

From the time I had my first baby 8 years ago I was always making sure that the product I used on him were natural. I started with Pampers sensitive brand and when I found something more natural I kept switching. For the first year I used water wipes with my youngest. On Amazon I could get Water Wipes for about $.22 per wipe, now that doesn’t sound like a lot but when you add them up it got to be pretty pricey per month specially with three kiddos using them for number two visits!

Thank you to Krankz for providing me with product in exchange for review purposes. All opinions are my own. 

My husband spends a lot of time interacting with music, from making it to listening to it. As most know high quality microphones are needed to record music but it’s just as important to be able to really hear and feel the beats you’re laying down while recording as well.

In the past when making music my husband used to just use the computers speakers, and while they will do the job they don’t do it nearly as well as the Krankz headphones I recently received.

I always thought I had thinner hair. It wasn’t until recently when I said that to my hair stylist that she said I actually had finer hair but a lot of it. Which doesn’t really make it thin hair. Either way I have a few tricks up my sleeve that I use to make my hair look more full and thick!

Tip 1
Use an eyeshadow similar to your hair color to fill in your hair line.

So maybe some of you know, maybe some don’t but I recently became a business owner! It sounds so weird even saying it, well typing it here. Starting a business is something I never imagined myself doing and honestly just because it was something I’d never done before. I was afraid to do something wrong the whole time and still am! But I realized having supportive friends who had already owned their own business has been crucial and I thought not everyone has this so I would share 4 tips to starting a business that I felt crucial.

My mom always went out of her way to make birthdays special when I was growing up. I never got to have a birthday during school because it was always spring break. My family always made sure to go the extra mile to make sure I knew how important I was on that day of celebration. I have continued that tradition within my own family and have added onto it as well! Here are the extra special things we do in our house to make our three kids feel special on their day.

My husband and I try to practice as much minimalism as possible. We are nowhere near perfection and we still have more things than we’d like to, but like everything else in life minimalism is a journey for us. We feel it’s really important to teach our kids a more minimalist lifestyle at a young age and keep it in our conversation often especially around holidays and birthdays. So how do we do that?

Every year before each major gift holiday, whether that’s a birthday or Christmas we go through all of our toys bins thoroughly and get rid of all the toys that might be broken, the toys that are never played with or toys with missing forever pieces.

Thank you to Bogs for providing me with product in exchange for review. All opinions are my own. 

My kiddos may or may not have a deep love for their winter boots. I mean really when you’re wearing Bogs boots what’s not to love? My kids love that their winter boots also double as fall and spring rain boots that are perfect for mud puddle jumping and splashing.

This year I opted for a more winter style boot for my kids aged 8 and 5 as I knew that they would be out in the actual snow more often and for longer periods of time than in previous years.

I’ve always been the type of person to need only what is practical. I follow this motto when it comes to my style and fashion choices as well. When I had my first child I carried a diaper bag along only for as long as I really had to and just kept all my important cards, money and necessities in my pocket or inside my car.

Great Danes are such absolutely beautiful dogs. Their size is so well coupled with their gentle nature. Unfortunately often times it’s that amazing size that can potentially lead to their death. Because Danes are so big and have such deep chests they often times uffer from bloat. Bloat occurs when the stomach flips and twists and results in the restricted circulation of the digestive organs and eventually the death of those organs if not treated soon enough.

Continue reading Four Tips to Prevent Bloat in Great Danes at Emily Reviews.

We did a lot of research before deciding on getting a Great Dane. Given that we wanted to add to our already exhausting family we knew the breed we chose had to be family friendly. Here’s all the reasons why a Great Dane fits the perfect family dog role!

Great for apartment living.
Now I don’t personally live in an apartment but my house as I’ve discussed before is small. Great Danes aren’t high energy dogs so they do great in smaller spaces with only so much as a walk a day.

Thank you to Back to The Roots for providing me with product in exchange for review purposes. All opinions belong to me. 

As my kids grew I always found it important to discuss with them where the food on their plate came from. When we were eating meat, it was explained and when we ate eggs we explained where they came from as well. When we switched to a whole food plant based vegan diet some of that explaining went out the window.

Thank you to Koyah for providing me with product in exchange for review. All opinions are my own.

When my family switched to a whole food plant based diet a lot of our meals didn’t look as familiar as they used to. I find myself often trying to make meals that look familiar or use familiar ingredients to help our children transition even easier. One way to make foods more exciting and familiar is to use colors.

My husband has always been a huge fan of music. Not only does my husband love to listen to music but he also loves to create it. When I met him ten years ago he was a pretty avid guitar player.

When I had my first baby seven years ago, I was so excited to decorate the baby room. We lived in an apartment at the time so decor was quite limited. I wasn’t allowed to paint or hang shelves. We lived in a two bedroom apartment with my mom at the time so the idea of a whole room dedicated to baby furniture, accessories and decor wasn’t really an option either.

It has been a while since an update with me and my little family! Little Link is doing amazing, almost a year old now believe it or not. He is standing and walking with furniture support. He is eating or rather I should say trying lots of foods. We practice baby led weaning which entails waiting for baby to truly be ready for real whole foods like steamed broccoli, carrots and more. I love following this method as I never have to mess with puree’s or baby food in general.

My husband and I have been floor sleeping for about two months. I first found out and considered floor sleeping after reading articles regarding the incredibly toxic materials most mattress are made out of. Not only are these chemicals toxic for your health but they are also non bonded. Non bonded chemicals mean that every time you touch or bump or move on the mattress these toxic chemicals are released into your breathing air.

I love to DIY. I really love to DIY things with a practical use. I have so many bras from pre-pregnancy that are adorable and cute and lacey. Seeing those cute bras over and over and then comparing them to my current nursing bras can be a  bummer sometimes, especially when I know that I’ll be nursing for a minimum of another year. So I decided that I would convert all those cute bras to nursing bras!

My family lives in a relatively smaller home. All five (six if you count the dog) share about 780 finished square feet. When you share that tight of a space you have to get pretty creative in every aspect of your home from storage to sleeping arrangements and everything in between. My two oldest kids share a bedroom and there are times when that space is just too small for the both of them.

My husband was a kid who’s parents were able to take him out skiing as a child. He was able to ski slopes, snow tube down hills and so much more winter fun. As one of four siblings he often had to wear hand me downs from his older sisters. While this worked he never had any snow gear that felt like his style.

I personally love gettin new shower products to use, before I understood the amount of toxic chemicals within a typical drug store body care product, I just bought whatever read well on the label as well as whatever won me over in scent.

My son has loved robots for a long time, where that love came from I can’t quite place. I do however remember some of the first robots he enjoyed weren’t really toys, more drawings or cartoon versions he seen. That grew into a paper robot book that let you assemble the bots and read a short story about their fictional purpose, life and personality.

As you guys know my family recently adapted a whole food plant based diet. I have had a bit of a struggle with finding recipes the kids want to devour, that is until I created this recipe.

I quickly found that this recipe was tasty, but messy given you eat it with your fingers like nachos.

In the spirit of quieting those worries here are my top five unschooling mantras.
