Around Kids? You Need The Kid Dictionary!

If you are one that loves to laugh, (and who doesn't?)  You will find yourself cracking up when flipping through The Kid Dictionary by Eric Ruhalter.

We were sent a copy for review and I admit it, I was literally laughing out loud at some of his words..  
You see, Eric took situations that those around kids are all way to familiar with and made up words to go with them.  
The first word in the "dictionary" is FEELABUSTER.  Definition:  To pat down your toddler before she leaves a play date at someone else'e house to make sure she isn't stealing any toys.  
Ha ha... No, we have not had to deal with that yet... But I can only imagine... That right there was the opening, so I knew it was going to be good...

Has your child ever been "FULLISH?"  I know Broxton has on more than one occasion... 
What is FULLISH?  Oh, it is "too full to eat more carrots, yet fully prepared to consume an ice cream sundae!"  Come on, you know your kids have done that at least once, right?

Soon enough, we will be letting Broxton play sports... and I am sure I will have a "FILTHLETE" as in  " a child who goes out of his way to make sure his sports uniform gets as dirty as possible."  I just feel that in my bones that he will be that kid!  

As you can see, it is quite entertaining..
I am thinking that this would be a great pick me up gift to a friend...
It would also be a great gift idea for a friend expecting... be it the mom or the dad... 
It would also make a great "CONGRATS" gift to a friend that just got a job in a nursery or preschool!
I loved reading it and have picked it up on more than one occasion to get a quick laugh..
It is a little over 200 pages, so I hope that Eric makes another book soon!

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...
