As a blogger, I am at my computer off and on throughout the day.
Nothing is worse than sitting there with a chill...
Well, now I don't have to worry about it!
I have been able to review the USB Heated Shawl/Blanket!

I love it!!!
We were sent one in blue for review.
I plugged it in and a little bit later, I could feel a bit of warmth.
Now, personally, I wished it would have gotten hotter...
(But, I said the same thing about our electric blanket... I have determined that I want it to possibly burn my skin or something, as I was wanting HEAT and Marc was saying it was on! But anyways, back to the blanket....)

The USB heated blanket comes with 2 USB cords.
1 cord for low warmth, 2 for a higher warmth.
I also wish it was a bit bigger, but that is because I am greedy!
Ha ha!!!
It is a shawl/lap blanket and it is the perfect size, but once I felt the softness of the blanket, I wanted it to wrap up in!!!
I plugged it in while I was at the computer and used it both ways.
I really like that they have a button and loop on it for use as a shawl.
(Surprisingly, the heat hits right in the upper part of my back, behind my neck and it in turn made my whole body warm!)
Then, when I used it as a lap blanket, it was comfy, but as I said... I wanted it for all over, not just my lap! :)
After I was finished at the computer, I placed it on Marc's feet (he ALWAYS has cold feet!) and he started with this huge grin talking about how nice and warm it felt!
I guess we both won in that situation!!!!

    I used to have an office job, YEARS ago, and this would have been perfect!!! The office was always freezing and I would have loved to have this heated USB blanket for warmth!

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...
