Making Babies Book and 3-DVD Set Review and #Giveaway US/Can (9/2)
Everybody knows that being healthy before, during, and after pregnancy is super important both for mom and baby. I tried my best (even now that my baby is a little older, I still try to be as healthy as I can) but there are so many resources out there and so much conflicting information it can be overwhelming. When I was contacted to review Making Babies: Fertility, Pregnancy and Birth the Natural Way, I was thrilled! This is the resource I'd been looking for since before I was pregnant.

MOMables Easy and Fresh School Lunch Menus Review and 3-Month Subscription #Giveaway WW (8/24)
August is here and it's time to start planning ahead for the school year that will begin shortly. Gathering school supplies, buying new clothes, making sure your child is ready takes a lot of time and effort. One thing that you might not be thinking about right now is lunches! It's so easy when you're busy to simply get pre-made lunches and pre-packaged snacks for your child.

Brookiellen Designs Diaper Cover/Swim Diaper Review and #Giveaway US/CAN (8/23)
Every parent who uses cloth diapers knows that one of the perks of cloth diapering (other than the eco-friendly and health factors) is that they come in SO MANY colors and prints.

Crazy, you think? Look at these diaper covers from Brookiellen Read more [...]

Plus I'm also thinking long term: when we have another baby, we'll be able to reuse them again. So, I've been looking and looking for a company that I could trust and then I found Living Textiles Baby!
I was quite surprised to find out that Living Textiles Baby was established in 1963 because I only knew them Read more [...]
*Update* MommyLicious Maternity Nursing Top Review and #Giveaway US/Canada (8/17)
I really enjoyed being pregnant. The whole experience, although not always easy, was exciting and and sort of magic. Seeing my body change and imagining the little being in my belly was surreal. What was also surreal was how quickly my body changed. I think I wasn't quite ready for it and even less ready for the sad selection of maternity and nursing clothing options available. It was difficult to find cute outfits that complimented my shape and my personality, not hide it under shapeless clothes.
