Protect Your Mobile Devices with Otterbox

November 23, 2013 by Jenni 407 Comments

We pay a lot of money for our mobile devices so it only makes sense to keep them protected from drops, bumps, scratches and everything else under the sun. We have hardwood floors through our home and little man loves to play with our phones and tablets. I can’t let him carry them off unattended because if he drops them on the floor without a case on, it would be the death of my phone or iPad. I mean, I would cry and would hold a burial service and everything.

otterbox logo

Otterbox is well known for their cases for mobile devices. They have several styles and lines of cases for many different brand phones/devices. Their prices are also very good when you consider the protection you get out of it. They’re almost bullet proof. Okay, not really…but you get the idea. Otterbox are a great type of “insurance” for your devices so I definitely recommend buying them as gifts this Christmas!! Especially for your kiddos who tend to drop things easily!

preserver otterbox iphone case

They recently sent me a case for my iPhone from their new Preserver line. I love the Primrose color it came in…I’m just a “pink” girl. One thing I really enjoy about the case is that there isn’t a flap over the camera lens like my other case had. I used to have to pull the plastic cover off the lens before I’d take a picture — now I don’t have to do that. The phone is completely covered…every square inch of it so it’s super duper protected! Love it.

 

reflex otterbox case for ipad

They also sent me an iPad case from their Reflex series. This is a nice case for someone who likes the lighter weight cases. It’s not cumbersome to carry or use, and it’s really easy to install. Keep in mind, with this case, you might want to buy a screen protector because this one doesn’t have one installed with the case. It covers the backside of the iPad and has a front cover that you remove when you’re ready to use it. You can also use the front side when removed, as a stand to work upright.

We’re excited to announce that we’ll be giving away (2) Otterbox cases for a lucky reader. One for their phone and one for their tablet. WhooHoo!!! Our Holiday Gift Guide and Giveaway event will be going live on Black Friday so stay tuned!

Use Energizer Flameless Wax Candles for a Safer Alternative to Regular Candles

November 23, 2013 by Jenni 1,409 Comments

I love to fill my home with yummy smelling candles – but candles that burn are not a safe alternative for those who have pets and kids. You think you’ve got the burning candle pushed back out of the way, but still yet…kids have sticky fingers and it’s like they’ve got those Mr. Gatchet go go extendo arms!! Remember him? Yeah…so I’ve been more in favor of the flameless candles over the last few years.

14711091_Alt02_201309040722

Energizer has a gorgeous line of flameless wax candles that run by battery and are scented. Included in the line are pillar style candles that are 3×4″ and also 3×6″. Not to mention the votives and the tealights. The burn time is approximately 150 hours for the pillars and about 75 hours for the small tealights which is decent!! That’s a lot longer than a real tealight burns for…those babies are gone in NO time! I love the flameless candles and I know all of my friends and family do too. Because they’re not expensive at all, they make great gifts!

Energizer Flameless Wax Candles can help create the perfect holiday ambiance in your home, as well as the gift.  Energizer Flameless Wax Candles have the realistic flicker of a traditional candle, but without the worries of open flames, soot or dripping wax – so safe around pets, window treatments and kids.  These are perfect for everything from home decorating and tablescapes, to stocking stuffers and hostess gifts.  These candles come in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors and are a great decorating alternative.

They’re available at Target.com and you can also find them here on Amazon! We’re happy to be partnering with Energizer this holiday season and we’ll be giving away some of these pretty flameless candles during our Holiday Gift Guide and Giveaway event! The shindig kicks off on Black Friday so stay tuned!!

Corolle Creates Sweet Imaginative Play with Baby Dolls and Stroller

November 22, 2013 by Jenni 1,807 Comments

I was a little girl once, many moons ago, and I remember all of my little baby dolls. I remember how I fed them and rocked them and put them to sleep. They went everywhere with me and I loved having tea parties with them! There is so much imaginative play for little girls with dolls and Corolle is a company that I love! They have some of the sweetest little baby dolls and real life like baby strollers.

I was just recently introduced to a company called Lundby, a Swedish company, who makes awesome doll houses!!

The windows can be opened and get this —  all the rooms are prepared for electricity!! YES! You can add an electric pack to turn all the lights on in the joint!

lundby

What I love about Lundby is the craftmanship in their houses and the furniture. A lot of thought went into the creative aspect and building process. I know any little girl would love to have one of these doll houses. Hours and hours of playing, rearranging furniture and decorating!

Britax Car Seat

Keep Your Kids Safe with Britax Car Seats

November 22, 2013 by Jenni 612 Comments

I don’t think there is any cargo more precious than our kids! Don’t you agree? We’ve owned a few different car seats over the years and I really thought that many of the ones on the market were considered “safe”. They are for the most part, don’t get me wrong…but I really suggest doing your homework. I don’t know how many times I’ve read of certain models being recalled for one reason or another.

Britax Car Seat

 

britax car seat pink flowers

After doing a lot of research, we decided that the last seat we were going to buy was the Britax Pinnacle 90. There are many reasons why we chose this seat. I love that it can change from the harness to the “booster” type seat with the regular seat belt since our little man is getting bigger. It has the ClickTight installation system and I love love love the side impact cushion technology. None of the other car seats we had were built like that.

There are just so many different styles that Britax offers and there are so many features for each one. You can visit their site to find the seat that suits your needs best. They even tell you when your child is ready to transition to a booster seat. I have to admit that when I pick little man up from school, it makes me uncomfortable when I see kids much smaller than he is just jumping in the front seat and putting on a seatbelt. It’s just not as safe as it used to be years and years ago when I was smaller. There are just too many distractions for people driving now a’days. Cell phones for instance. Back when I was small there weren’t distractions like that. People just got in cars and drove!

britax

You can find the Britax Pinnacle 90 Car Seat here on Amazon priced around $257 with free shipping. This seat will last a LONG time and will be the last one you’ll need to buy. There are a few different color/pattern choices too! We’re really excited to announce that we’ll be giving away a Britax Pinnacle 90 car seat (winner choose pattern) very soon! Stay tuned for more details about the giveaway and our 2013 Holiday Gift Guide!

Shark sonic duo

Hate to Mop? Check out the Shark Sonic Duo Hard Floor and Carpet Cleaner

November 22, 2013 by Jenni 209 Comments

We have hardwood floors in our whole house. There is only one room that is carpeted and that’s our son’s room, but there is hardwood under that so we can pull the carpet back up anytime. We only had the carpet laid for his safety and comfort when he was born (first time mommy, give me a break! haha).

Shark sonic duo

Anyway, the household job I hate more than anything is mopping. I hate it. So when I was given the opportunity to try the new Shark Sonic Duo Hard Floor and Carpet cleaner, I was like HELLOOOO – uhh, YEAH!! Boy, am I in love with this machine. I have a Shark Navigator vacuum and I love it so I knew that I’d love this new machine too. I’ve owned Shark products for several years.

shark sonic duo bottom with pads

As soon as the box arrived, I put it to work. The Shark Sonic Duo has pads that attach to the bottom and when you turn it on, that baby vibrates so fast that it actually scrubs 1000 times per minute. Uhh, I’m pretty sure I physically can’t scrub back and forth 1000 times in one minute. That’s the beauty of this machine! That’s over 16 powerful scrubs every second!

The Sonic machine removes the stuck on dirt and grime on your floors and carpet BUT it requires almost zero effort on your part. The machine has Airglide Manueverability. That’s what makes it do all the hard work, so fast! So you can imagine why I love this thing! After just one use, my hardwood floors looked cleaner and brighter. It also does an excellent job on small area rugs.

Shark Sonic Duo Pads

The pads that come with the Shark Sonic Duo are machine washable so no more having to wring out those nasty mop heads and no more disposable pads to buy!! The cleaning solutions are very affordable and they last quite awhile. The one thing that I really like about it is that they’re non toxic and safe to use around kids and pets! You just take the old bottle out and replace it with the new one.

Using the Shark Sonic Duo is very comfortable. As mentioned, with the airglide technology, the machine really moves by itself. You just have to hold the handle. The handle does swivel so it reaches well under nooks and crannies. We are very excited because we’ll be giving one of these systems to one lucky reader! Stay tuned for our 2013 Holiday Gift Guide, more info. about that soon!

The Shark Sonic Duo is priced around $219 with Free Shipping here on Amazon right now! It’s totally worth the price tag to save your arms, shoulders and time mopping the floors and cleaning carpets the “old fashioned” way. 🙂

Steiff elephant

Beautiful Baby Toys and Plush Animals from Steiff

November 22, 2013 by Jenni 845 Comments

Don’t forget about the babies this Christmas! Steiff is a German company that specializes in beautiful baby toys and plush animals. From gorgeous teddy bears to baby clothing and alot in between. The story behind the Steiff company is a sweet one. It all began with Margarete Steiff, a young woman whose dreams started with a pin cushion in the shape of an elephant and a lot of determination. Her company started in 1880 and has been going strong ever since. Now Steiff products are available in other countries, including the USA!

Steiff Baby Toys

Steiff creates their beautiful baby toys and plush animals with the highest grade of materials and they follow strict guidelines and inspection. They have several different lines, some even including Mohair. They even have some cute character items like Wizard of Oz and Charlie Brown.

Steiff Turtle Baby ToysClick here for Little Circus Turtle products on Amazon

They sent me a couple of their Little Circus items and they are super duper cute!! I got a Little Circus Turtle and a Little Circus Elephant! I’m really excited about the elephant because that was the animal that Margarete Steiff loved and held dear to her heart! These make perfect gifts for baby this Christmas or any time of year. Consider adding them to a baby shower basket, even! Momma will fall in love with them and so will baby. They’re so soft, plush and cuddly!

I know that the prices are a little higher for the Steiff  baby toys and plush animals, compared to what you’d normally pay for a stuffed animal but you have to consider the craftmanship behind it. Some things, especially items that baby will be loving on, kissing and sleeping with, are priceless. These are the great ones that will become an heirloom. They last a lifetime and your kids can pass them on to their kids. Don’t worry…some of their products are machine washable, which is perfect for babies! Each item description on their site will tell you if they’re machine washable or not.

Click Here to shop Steiff baby toys on Amazon!

I am officially in love with Steiff and their products. I love their love of toys and plush animals!! I’m also very excited to announce that Steiff is participating in our 2013 Holiday Gift Guide and we’ll be giving away one Little Circus Turtle and Elephant!! Please stay tuned, we’ll be sharing more about that very soon!

Safe, Stylish and Affordable Bedroom Sets for Kids from Delta Children

November 21, 2013 by Jenni 534 Comments

I love to decorate and I’m always re-arranging furniture in my house. Same goes for my son’s bedroom. He’s a little older now so he’s transitioned out of a couple of different beds and I’m always keeping my eyes out for great deals on bedroom sets. I have tons of nephews and nieces and several of them have kids of their own so I’m always looking for great deals on bedroom sets.

delta children

I found these really awesome bedroom in a box sets that Delta Children makes. They have the “fun” themes like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Princess Sofia, and Disney Cars just to name a few. They specialize in beds and other toddler furniture as well as nursery sets. When I was at a conference earlier this year, I was able to check out some of Delta’s products. They really focus a lot of their attention on the safety aspects of their products. For instance…they leave a lip open in their toy boxes so that if kids accidentally get inside one of them they can still breathe. You won’t believe how many times my own have been found asleep inside their toy boxes. It happens!

Besides all the safety factors, I also love the durability of their furniture. It’s easy to wash – cause you know how dirty toddler furniture can get – and I love the look. They’re just fun furniture products that the kiddos instantly fall in love with. I’m excited because Delta Children is participating in our 2013 Holiday Gift Guide and Giveaway event and we’ll be giving away a Full Room in a box!! Stay tuned for more information about that soon!

November 9, 2013 by Jenni 1,020 Comments

One of my son’s most favorite books EVER is his personalized book from I See Me! He just loves that it has his name ON the book and IN the book too.

Flips Audio

Amazing Sound with Flips Audio Headphones

November 9, 2013 by Jenni 594 Comments

Finding a great set of headphones can be a difficult challenge. I have found a set that I love…called Flips Audio! These are not your ordinary set of headphones. The cool thing about these is that they’re headphones and speakers all in one. Turn them in for regular headphones and turn them out for rocking speakers!

Flips Audio

I love the style of these. I don’t do well with ear buds. I never could find a set that fit in my ears good so I really REALLY like these Flips Adio headphones. You can choose from either white ones or black ones. They fold up and fit in a sweet little case too. These are USB chargeable headphones and the charge lasts for quite some time. I use them everyday while I work online because I love to listen to music while I work…helps keep me focused. 🙂

The headphone sound quality is amazing!! When they’re in speaker mode, the sound quality is just as awesome! I turn on my favorite playlist and turn them on to speaker mode when I clean. I can hear the music all over the house when it’s playing. These are a great gift idea for anyone on your list who loves music!! You can find these here on Amazon for $119 and FREE shipping!! Keep an eye out…we’ll be giving a set of these away for our 2013 Holiday Gift Guide and Giveaway event!!

Logitech Keyboard Folio

Tech Geek Gift Idea – Logitech Keyboard Folio for iPads

November 9, 2013 by Jenni 135 Comments

I spend a lot of time online from both my laptop and my mobile devices. I really enjoy working from my iPad because it’s not as restrictive as my laptop is but I really wanted to find a nice wireless keyboard. Logitech offers a really cool Keyboard Folio for iPads that fits the bill, plus it’s in it’s own case.

The Logitech Keyboard Folio is perfect for anyone. It’s also a great option for kids and teens who use iPads to do their homework. The keyboard helps them be more efficient. It’s easy to use straight out of the box. You just put the iPad into the folio and turn it on, using the Bluetooth Logitech keyboard on your device.

The keyboard features EasyType keys for comfortable typing plus iPad shortcut keys. You just open it to wake it up and close it for sleep mode. Magnets hold the iPad in typing mode and keeps the folio closed…or use it in the browsing mode. I love the functionality of it. It’s very easy to use and the keyboard is the perfect size. I’ve had some others that were super small and I was always making mistakes. Here are some other great points about the Logitech Keyboard Folio:

Logitech Keyboard Folio

  • Protective Keyboard Folio for iPad 2, 3rd and 4th generation: Full wraparound protection for both the front and back of your iPad
  • Integrated EasyType Bluetooth keyboard: Full-size keys give you the feel and comfort of a traditional typing experience for your iPad
  • Striking style: Designed to perfectly complement iPad with a choice of rich colors and fabrics to match your personal style
  • Convenient magnetic stand and closure: Holds your iPad at the ideal angle for typing; keeps the Folio closed when you are on the go; auto wakes/sleeps your iPad when opened/closed
  • Long-lasting rechargeable power: Get up to three months of power on a full charge. Includes USB charging cable for easy recharging while you type (*Based on average use of two hours per day)

If your kids have been asking for a bluetooth keyboard for their iPads, this is one I’d highly recommend because it comes with the case too.  You can find the Logitech Keyboard folio here on Amazon for around $99 with free shipping. The one I have is black but they have several other colors as well. They have lots of great reviews! Stay tuned — we’re promoting this item in our 2013 Holiday Gift Guide! We’ll be giving one away around Black Friday so keep a look out!!
