I will admit it... I totally judge books by their cover...
I hate that about me, but it is true... 
I received Princess Cupcake Jones and the Missing Tutu... for review.
I thought it was adorable and a great book for a little girl...
(Told you, judging the cover..)

So, then I read it... 
It was ADORABLE!!!!
Talk about loving a book!!!
I finished reading it and Broxton finally decided to stroll over to see what I was doing and he quickly asked me what was going on in the book.
I told him I would read it to him later, but it was a great book about a little Princess that did not do such a great job of cleaning up behind her...   and in the process, she lost her things.. but they were never LOST... they were just where she had left them and she did not remember where it was, since it was not in the place that it was supposed to be... 
That is a common theme around here... 
Except that this mama is a bit OCD... so even when he does "clean up" his toys, I go behind him and sort into the correct bins that things belong in!!!!

I loved this book and although it was about a Princess, I thought it was a great book for kids of both genders! Another great thing?  Well, two great things...
One.. this Princess played in the dirt looking at bugs and what not... 
and Two... it was an African American family..
The author actually wrote this book because of the limited amount of books available with African American characters!!!

Love it...   and I bet our house (as well as Cupcake Jones')  isn't the only one that has things "lost" because certain people don't put them back where they go!!!!

    Hahaha, I used to be that mama who 'cleaned up' after the clean up. Now if they clean it, I'm just thankful and leave it alone. :)

    This sounds like a nice book!

    My daughter would love this book. She loves cupcakes and she just started taking ballet.

    My daughter would love this book because she just started taking ballet and I know the title would intrigue her.

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

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...
