When we first bought our house I was so excited to decorate! We had always rented and all the homes we rented at said we could not put anything, including nails into the walls! When our home was finally built and ready to decorated I realized being a first time homeowner could be mush more expensive than I had ever imagined. Just buying trash cans was expensive- cost us a little under 250.00! Add that to all the blinds, curtains and everything else we had never had to buy before and we quickly spent a ton! I had a pretty strict budget for home decor already, and unexpected things (like the darn trash … [Read more...]
Teething Bling Patterned Pendants
February 4, 2012 by 3 Comments
Emmitt is by far the worst teether we have ever had. It seems like nothing can soothe him when his teeth hurt. He has 7 teeth so far and they keep coming in, one by one. I swear he is just trying to torture me! I have a lot of jewelry that I am dying to wear- but he puts everything in his mouth so none of my jewelry is safe around my neck, where Emmitt's hands creep when he nurses. Teething Bling makes the perfect solution to my problem! Teething Bling is 'teethable' jewelry. Each pendant is made from a commonly-used, medical-grade, food-safe silicone. It's the same material found in many … [Read more...]
Mimijumi
February 3, 2012 by 5 Comments
Emmitt and I just hit the 11 month mark of nursing! I am very proud of both him and I! Recently I decided to start giving Emmitt water with a bit of juice and since my boobs do not produce water or juice I need a bottle to put them in, but Emmitt is quite picky and nothing is like mommy! The design of the mimijumi bottle is based on the psychological dynamics of feeding items as transitional objects. The benefits of breastfeeding are well known, but breastfeeding is not always practical in today's society, and as I stated earlier- try as I might I can not produce apple juice! Created with input … [Read more...]
Boon Gnaw: The Multi-Purpose Teething Teether
February 3, 2012 by 7 Comments
Here at Real Mom Reviews we love Boon Products! So when Emmitt started teething and nothing helped- I checked out Boon! I saw the Gnaw and could not for the life of me figure out how it worked. Once I got the Gnaw out of the package and was able to really examine it I realized how amazing it was. The one end clips on to your child (or stroller) and the other end is a Chinese finger trap that will hold on tight to what ever you put in it. We normally stick an ice cube in there and Emmitt will chew, suck and 'gnaw' on the trap until the ice cube is gone. He gets wet when he does this, but the relief … [Read more...]
