W/W - Firetruck!

Broxton LOVES firetrucks.
Like, absolutely LOVES them!

Good thing for me, a friend of mine is a firefighter!
That being said...
Last time we went to my hometown, I promised him we would go see a firetruck.
That was the big lead up that week.

Broxton was super good, because he knew he would get to go...
That Saturday morning, we headed to the fire-station.
My friend, Christy came out to meet us.

She took Broxton up in the firetruck and showed him how they turn the lights on.
THEN, she let him pull the string which made the loud horn sound!!!
He was excited to see it all, but I think he was more excited to just stand and look at it all!
I think he was most excited to just get to see it, although he did like hearing the sirens and the horn!!!
After they looked inside the truck, Christy even let him put on a fire-hat!!!
(Thank goodness it was a cool one, since we quickly noticed the UGA sticker!! GO DAWGS!)
After that, we made sure to get a picture so that we have proof that MOMMY got the cool points that day!!!
Oh, we even got to go inside!
In there, we saw where they all sleep..
They even have their own kitchens where they have family style meals together!
While we were there, we also got to see them studying...
Broxton loved that he got to see them "in school!"

Great day at the fire-station!!!!
Thanks Christy!!!!

    My brother-in-law is a firefighter, but my sister hasn't taken the boy's for a very long time. I'll have to get on her about that.

PowerMat - Review and Giveaway

Image
Please let me go ahead and just say... I think/KNOW that the PowerMat will be one of the HOTTEST items this year! Have you heard of this? I mean, seriously! This is Awesome and I am using that since I can not think of any other way to explain it... (Are there really words that would explain something this cool?!) Okay, let me just cut to the heart of it... The PowerMat is just that... A MAT full of POWER! It is a little bit longer than an average book... Thinner than a cell phone. It looks like a skateboard (in my opinion.) and it charges 3 different technological gadgets at once! Do you know what that means? You NO LONGER need 3 cords, no more messy tangles... Just one cord to plug the mat in and you are done!!!! I was sent the PowerMat for review and I am so very impressed! The PowerMat can charge 3 different items... Marc and I have blackberries... (They can now BOTH charge on here AT THE SAME TIME!) We also have several IPods ... The docking station for the IPod can charge my

Fire Fly Toothbrushes - #giveaway

Image
Is it a hassle to get your younger kids to brush their teeth? Broxton loves it and asks throughout the day if he can go and brush his... Now that he has a new toothbrush!!! We were sent a couple toothbrushes from Fire Fly Toothbrushes and I just love the concept! With Fire Fly, they light up! You just press the button and they light up for a solid minute. What we do here is a little system. First, Broxton brushes his teeth for the first minute. (just a teeny bit of toothpaste) Then, I brush the next minute (once again, minimal toothpaste.) Finally, he gets to brush them a final minute (no toothpaste.) The system is working and his teeth are clean! During the day, when he wants to brush them.. He can, but with no toothpaste. He really just likes the way it lights up. Doesn't hurt that the toothbrush is a hot wheels car!!! He also has one to leave at my parents house.. It is a snoopy one and lights up blue! Talk about a cool item to show the grandparents!!! Not only c

Momma Must Have - Exergen Temporal Thermometer- Review and Giveaway

Image
As we all know, it can sometimes be a bit difficult to take the temperature of a sick child. Hey, some adults are known to be big babies... The longer they have to wait, the fussier they become. Well, with the Exergen Temporal Scanner ... Wait is something that can be eliminated! Why do I say that? Just because the wait is merely 2 seconds! During that time, you will already be finished a gift giveaway blog hop, exergen temporal scanner, mom must have, R nd moving on to something else. I really like the ease of the Exergen Thermometer. It has a soft tip on it that you gently swipe across the forehead of your "patient." There are two things that make this stand out compared to others that I have used. One - If you are sweating, you can place it behind your ear to get your temperature. Two - There is a light on both sides to show you that it is on. I like that, as I sometimes worry if it is on or not... You know how I can be! First, remove the protective cap... Turn it on...
