Windex All In One Outdoors Review and Giveaway

THE REVIEW:

I have said it before and I will say it again- I don't like to clean. I have so much going on in my life at all times that cleaning sometimes gets put on the back burner. Anything that can make it easier for me to clean will always peak my interest. When I was given the chance to review Windex Outdoors All in One I was pretty excited.



It is a new glass cleaning tool that provides a faster, easier way to clean outdoor windows. It is pretty amazing- it can reach up to 11 feet so that you can safely and easily tackle tough outdoor dirt without using a ladder and you can clean 20 windows with a single pad (but you can get refills when you need it). And it is super easy to use- all you do is spray the outside window and cleaning pad with the garden hose, wipe the window with the cleaning pad and then rinse the window with the garden hose. No need to get on a ladder and hand dry your windows. Because it is Windex, you know that there will be no streaks or spotting.

We absolutely loved it- it was absolutely fool-proof. I now have clean windows and it was actually easy. I won't say that I liked cleaning the windows, but I will say that I did not mind (and that is a big deal for me).

Do you want to try it yourself? One lucky winner will receive one starter kit.

Another update

Sara and I are feeling better but my mom had to have emergency surgery today. She is fine but in the intensive care in the hospital in a medically induced sleep right now (hopefully she will be able to get up tomorrow). So I will be back to posting reviews and giveaways and winners soon (I hope). Thanks for sticking around

We went to the circus last night!

Remember this post where I talked about the circus discounts? Well my mom, dad, sister and I took Sara Rose to the circus last night. It was AWESOME! We had such a great time.



I am part of the Feld Family Activator program as a mom influencer (sounds fancy, right?) and was able to get to meet some of the performers before the show and then we got to go to the pre-show and THEN we were all able to go and watch the circus. The show was amazing, the staff was amazing, it was amazing to get to meet some of the MomCentral team. I can't even tell you how great it was. Here are a couple pics of Sara with some of the cast members (she would not pose for a pic, but would stand near them).





We took Sara to go and see a circus a year or so ago and it did not even compare to this. The performances were absolutely breath-taking, from the animals, to the acrobats, to the clowns, to the motorcycle riding high-wire act.




From their facebook page:
Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® proudly presents Over The Top, an all-new live entertainment extravaganza featuring the ultimate tug of war between Ringmaster Chuck Wagner and clown eccentric Tom Dougherty over a magical top hat that controls the circus. When the Ringmaster dons the hat he conjures stupendous spectacles for his circus like the stunt riding Royal Cossack Cavalry while the clown uses the hat to summon silly and whimsical acts for his circus such as a cavalry of goats riding on ponies in a Barnyard Bonanza. They continue to top one another until the Ringmaster and clown realize that the magic of the circus is not in the hat but in the hearts of everyone. The show culminates in an amazing display of gigantic glowing rainforest flowers surrounding Chinese acrobats swinging on vines and propelling through the air. Over the Top is two circuses in one providing excitement for the whole family.

Audiences will see nearly 100 animals including flying dogs, Asian Elephants that skip, hop, and groove, miniature horses, llamas, pigs, and even a performing porcupine. In a daring feat, the courageous Daniel Raffo stands eye to eye with a pack of powerful Bengal tigers. Circus celebrities help rev-up the motorcycle madness featuring one cycle on a high wire and seven speeding riders in a Globe of Steel. Extraordinary aerial acts fill the arena sky with a rare double-decker trapeze and the Bombastic Bouncers who combine gigantic inner tubes and awe-inspiring acrobatics in a high-energy performance never before seen in America. And with the audience's participation, this circus really goes Over The Top!

Baby Human Play and Learn Spoon Review

Sara is able to use spoons but she sometimes will still turn it over before she gets it to her mouth. We just received a Play and Learn Spoon by Baby Human. It is so fun! Sara loves it. She likes the feel of it, and is able to use it so easily. She also loves the colors. We actually have to wash it while she is sleeping because when she sees us put it in the dishwasher, she will get upset and want her "pretty poon".

I love it because it is BPA, phthalate and lead-free. I also love how flexible it is and that the curved handle aligns the spoon with her mouth.

The Play and Learn Spoon is designed to help your baby transition to a real spoon. As children transition from milk to food, they also become familiar with the feel and hand-eye coordination associated with using a spoon.

When children start to use their new skills to feed themselves, they have refined the tracking motion from plate to mouth, reducing frustration and increasing eating success!

The Play and Learn Spoon is made of durable rubber so it is safe to use as well as tough enough to keep up with busy toddler play. The unique handle, dual-headed design and lateral guards make self-feeding easy and safe.

Thanks to Family Review Network for the chance to try out this great spoon.

My Natural Toy Review

We just received a plush owl from My Natural. My Natural is a new line of toys from Hosung Companies. The toys in the My Natural line are all-natural soft plush characters, as gentle on the environment as they are to the touch. They are available for immediate purchase at Target. I love that it is so soft and environmentally friendly. Sara loves that it looks like the owl from her favorite TV show (totally a coincidence).



We also received the new Baby Ben from miYim's Fairytale Collection. miYim is another line of Hosung Companies. This toy line will be available come spring and can be found at specialty stores. Baby Ben the frog is made from certified organic cotton and is soft with embroidered details. He's also colored with all natural plants and minerals, and his overalls are made from natural hemp. Baby Ben comes in a recycled cardboard gift box that can be reused for just about anything from recipes to photos.

Thanks to Role Mommy for the chance to review these great toys.

Certain Dri Solid Review and Giveaway

THE REVIEW:

You all know that I am a busy mommy. I am always on the go. And I really need a anti-perspirant that will work all day no matter what. Whether I am at the office, running errands, or playing with Sara Rose, it has to work great all the time.

I was recently sent new Certain Dri Solid. I was a little nervous about the review since the last anti-perspirant that I used actually stopped working for me! It was pretty horrible to be at work and realize that I was stinky. Totally embarrassing. I was really pleased with the results. It worked great, and kept me from being stinky.



When I did a little research I found out that Certain Dri Anti-Perspirant has been the leading, dermatologist- recommended product for treating excessive underarm perspiration for more than three decades. It is the strongest available over-the-counter without a prescription for the control of excessive underarm sweating for up to 72 hours with each application! Clinical studies show that Certain Dri Anti-Perspirant products are more than twice as effective as the leading anti-perspirant brand in keeping underarms dry for up to 72 hours.

Certain Dri Solid was created specifically to complete the line of Certain Dri antiperspirant products for those who want the same 72-hour protection from excessive underarm perspiration in a solid application. The product is specially-formulated to provide everyday, all-day dryness for those who suffer from excessive underarm perspiration. Certain Dri® Solid Anti-Perspirant contains 25% aluminum sesquichlorohydrate (Anhydrous). It is the only over-the-counter antiperspirant with this ingredient, which is more effective than the aluminum zirconium formula found in over-the-counter solid antiperspirants that are labeled “clinical strength.”

Would you like to win one Certain Dri Solid Anti-Perspirant for yourself?

The product line includes:
* Nature's Source Natural Glass & Surface Cleaner by Windex

I was able to review Nature's Source Natural Bathroom Cleaner by Scrubbing Bubbles. I have always loved the Scrubbing Bubbles Cleaners so I was very excited to find out that they now have a natural cleaning line.

I actually like it better than the original Scrubbing Bubbles! It is awesome! I can not believe how well it works! It is mild enough that I was able to use it without gloves and has a nice mild scent. It just did a spectacular job. I am very impressed.

One lucky winner is going to win a bottle of Nature's Source Cleaner.
