Oompa Toys Wooden Oval Roller & Pop Up Roller

Now that baby can move and play with toys I was excited to review two toys from Oompa Toys. Here is what I received.

Both of these toys are for ages 3 months+. So far baby is 3 months old and he loves these. Here is their Oval roller and it retails for $9.99.

Our Oval Roller is asymmetrically shaped causing it to wiggle as it rolls away from baby. Little ones will be enticed to crawl to the toy as they push it away. For added excitement, wooden cubes in the center make a gentle rattling sound. We love that this toy is made of eco-friendly rubber wood and is finished with pigment extract from flowers and leaves.

I LOVE these. They are made Of Eco-Friendly Rubberwood, Accented With Pigments Derived From Flowers And Plants.

Here is their Pop Up Roller which retails for $9.99.

This wooden baby toy is wonderful for little ones who are just starting to reach and grasp. As this toy rolls, the colorful wooden pieces pop-out creating a visually exciting event for baby! As our Pop Up Roller rolls away, baby is encouraged to crawl towards it. This toy is made from rubberwood and is colored with pigment extracts from flowers and leaves.

One lucky TTGG follower will be winning both of these toys!

Crunchy Momma Love Teething Pad and Cloth Pad

Now that we have a baby I have always wanted to baby wear and I do. Now that he is 3 months and moving a lot better I really wanted to try the teething pads for the carrier. I found a great mom she is the owner of Crunchy Momma Love and she made me a set quickly and we have been using them ever since. She also added a cloth pad that she makes here is what I tried.

The cloth pad was a nice surprise when I opened the package and how did she know that I LOVE owls? It is made out of 4 layers of flannel in the base of the pad and the outer is two layers. Here is the top.

And the back.

She has many fabric choices to choose from. For the teething pads I choose these.

They are very nice and the sewing is great. I really love the pattern. Here is how they look on your carrier. It is made with a cotton exterior and a denser, more absorbent cotton interior. Yes even dads wear babies and my husband loves it.

Baby Comfy Nose Nasal Aspirator - A Better Snot Sucker

When having a little baby they always have a runny nose and lots of boogers. I have been seeing a lot of facebook photos of the nose suckers with mold growing inside. I am glad that I have found Baby Comfy Nose Nasal Aspirator.

The Baby ComfyNose nasal aspirator uses parent-powered suction, which provides astonishingly effective mucus removal for your child's congested nose. The patented tissue filtration system is superior to foam rubber filters and no filters to buy. The nylon mesh drawstring pouch allows the aspirator to hygienically dry after washing. Do not use air-tight plastic containers for storage as this creates conditions for harmful viral and bacterial growth. Use the open mesh pouch for convenient storage at home or in the diaper bag. Three color choices keeps aspirators separate- ideal for siblings and multiples. The suction power is limited only by the suction you can draw. Always safe for parent and child because you are in control of the suction being generated. Significantly more effective than standard bulb and battery-powered nasal aspirators. Dishwasher Safe. BPA and phthalate free. Safety nose-tip designed so that it can not be inserted too deeply. You have found the most effective nasal aspirator available on the market today.

It is easy to put together and even easier to use! You know that it is working because you can see inside the piece. You just wash it out in the sink and use it again. No more mold!!!

Preemie clothes for NICU Tamiko preemie clothes

Being a foster parent out first baby that we were placed with was only 5lbs 6oz at almost 2 weeks old. I am excited that I found out about Preemie clothes for NICU by Tamiko.

Tamiko clothes for premature babies - NICU-approved

The Tamiko brand is a high quality clothing line for premature & newborn babies.

All garments have easy access for NICU equipment, with tiny holes for tubes and wires. The clothes can be fully opened on front, to enable easier dressing, with minimum disturbance for the preemie baby.
To the right, you can read about what parents and NICU nurses have to say about the Tamiko clothes, and to shop, visit Where to Buy.

The clothes are specially created for preemie's in NICUs. 

NICU staff have said these clothes will actually make their job easier, because tubes and wires can easily be adjusted and there is no need to thread through sleeves or legs.
The fabric has been specially selected to be as comfortable as possible for the tiny babies. The fabric is high in quality and natural, with soft seams for preemie‘s extra sensitive skin.

The smallest clothes fit micro preemies and the biggest size is regular newborn size.

The clothes are amazingly soft and the colors are unisex; sandshell and blue, and striped pattern in green and violet, plus the cutest lion print you've ever seen!

NICU-friendly clothes

Here you can see how the romper fits when the oxygen saturation monitor is used in the NICU. This white romper is a fitting-sample and the tiny boy was helping out with the creation.
He's wearing the small preemie size and weighs 4 lbs. Both his length and weight mean he's starting to fit the regular preemie size. After all, he's a "big" boy, 6 weeks old there :)

 

 

 

 

Hopefully we will get a little girl to put this on soon!

Peppy Parents 4Moms Cleanwater infant bath tub

Peppy Parents is a online store and they have many different things including strollers and diaper bags. I choose to review their 4Moms Cleanwater infant bath tub. I love 4Moms products and I was very excited to try the bath tub out. I have seen a lot of videos on it and I am glad to try it out for myself. Here is how the box looks.

Here is all of the pieces come in the box. They packed the box very well and it was not damaged in the shipping process like most of my packages are.

4Moms is an innovative company that looks for what can really benefit parents and new babies.

The Cleanwater tub has a continuous freshwater flow design - with a temperature gauge to avoid burns or chills - that lets dirty and soapy water drain out while rinsing your baby's delicate skin with clean water. Use the Cleanwater tub from birth to 6 months.

 

Color-coded digital thermometer makes it easy to set the perfect temperature for baby’s sensitive skin

Cleanwater Reservoir holds fresh water for rinsing

Rinse cup included

Fits most single and double basin sinks

I would recommend this for a little bit older babies. Mine is 3 months and he can not hold up his body and he was leaning a lot in the tub and the water was near his ears. We have to be careful where we position it in our sink when I first tired it I had it to close to the front and when I added him in the water rose a lot and started to come out of the drain hole and it went all over the floor. So make sure it is set to drain the sink.

Ordering from Preppy Parents was so easy and any purchase over $49 ships free. This came from UPS and It came so quick! Their customer service is great and they respond to emails very fast. They have some super cute diaper bags that are on my list since it seems that I am a diaper bag collector.

You can sign up for a baby registry on their website as well.

Buzzworthy Baby Giveaway

Welcome to the Buzzworthy Baby Giveaway! 

Hosted By: Mami's 3 Little Monkeys

Co-Hosted By:   Luker Family Tales

 Buzzworthy Baby formerly known as Baby Art was started by Kris O'Neill in 1986, in a tiny back room of her home in Cadillac, MI. She loved the idea of a fun, colorful and personalized baby gift that people could hang in their baby's nursery. She had the unique idea to integrate information about every newborn into a colorful and versatile collage. She started out by giving the prints away as gifts to friends and family member with new babies. The word of her colorful and intricate designs quickly spread and she started to sell them to the families in her area and even those further away. In 1994, she was faced with a tough decision, to continue to run a business or be more involved as a mother to her two sons, Kyle and Devin. She of course closed up her shop until the day the company could be reawakened, 18 years later when one of Kris's sons decided to rock the cradle. Devin was intrigued by how many people had cherished his mother's artwork so he rechristened the business side of what he began to call "Buzzworth Baby".

Buzzworthy Baby offers beautiful framed ($189ARV) and canvas wall art ($129ARV) for every baby's nursery or even for children's rooms. These prints come full of color, adorable images and personalized with all of the important details such as: baby's name, birth weight, birth time and date, siblings, parents and other personal information that should and can be preserved forever in a pictorial homage of the family's special day!

Flat Iron Experts Babyliss Nano Titanium Ultra Thin Flat Iron

Now if you know me I love hair. I can not leave the house without my hair looking nice. I am excited to share with you Flat Iron Experts. I have blogged a lot for them in the past and their products are always A+ here. Today I will be sharing with you their 1" Babyliss Nano Titanium Ultra Thin Flat Iron / Hair Straightener and their KQC Shine Spray as well as their Iron holder with suction cups as in the photo.

Babyliss Ultra Thin Flat Iron features a built-in ionic generator and recessed LED electronic temperature controls. This tool performs up to 40% faster than many straightening irons available today. Nano Titanium is an exception conductor of heat. It maintains stability in ultra-high temperatures and emits negative ions in their most beneficial form for faster straightening, locking in the hair's own natural moisture. The BaByliss PRO Nano Titanium Ultra Thin Straightener yields maximum far-infrared heat, penetrating the hair from within for gentle straightening without damaging your hair.

Ceramic Technology: Babyliss Ceramic Flat Iron's plates are able to distribute heat across the entire surface evenly, retains heat more efficiently, and eliminates damaging hot spots. Ceramic plates radiates far-infrared heat to preserve more moisture within the hair shaft and causes less damage to the hair cuticle. It also emits negative ions, which eliminate static electricity and deliver shinier and sleeker results.

Nano Titanium Technology : provides lightweight strength, has a super hard, smooth surface for snag free styling and even heat distribution. Titanium plates is also an exceptional conductor of hear that emits negative ions and far infrared heat.

Nano Technology : Kills bacteria while styling, maintains healthy-looking hair

Negative Ion Technology: Negative ions are atoms that can stop the growth of bacteria, fungi, etc., resulting in healthier hair and scalp. Negative ion energy is powerful enough to break apart clusters of water molecules. The smaller water molecules penetrate into the hair shaft by slipping between the cuticles, adding plumpness/volume to hair. The bombardment of negative ions also closes the hair cuticle, which is very good for the health and appearance of the hair

Far Infrared Heat : Far Infrared (FIR) rays are electro-magnetic waves of energy, totally invisible to the naked eye, capable of penetrating deep into the human body, including the hair shaft. It therefore dries the hair from the inside out. The result is that more moisture remains in the hair shaft and there is less damage to the hair.

Here is my before look in the summer I like my hair to air dry and it dries poofy and all wavy and crazy. I can never leave the house like this.

This is the after using the Babyliss Nano Titanium Ultra Thin Flat Iron.

 My hair is smooth and very nice and I really like it. I love that it heats up super fast and that is great for me being a mom on the go. I do not have a lot of time to spend so it really cuts down on getting ready time. I also used their KQC Thermal Shine Spray in the photo above.

KQC Thermal Shine Spray (142g) is an ion enriched polishing complex formulated for superior heat protection and ultra gloss hair shine. Lightweight, non-greasy micro mist spray that eliminates frizz, softens and polishes hair without build up. Designed for all hair types. Use with flat iron, curling iron or hair dryers.

KQC Thermal Shine spray is great for all hair types.  Whether your hair is normal, oily or dry, you can prevent infrared heat damage resulting in split-ends, frizz, and so forth.  This is also a great way to help detangle your hair as the thermal shines pray allows for easy & smooth comb-through.
I always keep my flair iron in their Flat Iron Experts Iron Holder.

Flat Iron Experts Iron Holder has suction cups to grip onto smooth glossy surfaces, such as a glass table for increased stability & safety.

 

Ah Goo Baby Grab-and-Go Bag

Ah Goo Baby is a company that I recently found by accident online and I am glad that I did. They have a lot of different items on their site such as Change the Plush pag, Grab and go bag, Kneekers, Stroller blanket and more. Today I will be sharing with you their Grab and Go bag. I choose the Kiwi color and It is so pretty.

Features:

1. Outer flap zippered pocket with mini pocket for credit cards and change .

2. Gusseted side velcro pocket for quick access to your mobile phone and keys, while insulated to fit various sized bottles and sippy cups.

3. Expandable lower waterproof compartment that is anideal location for the Ah Goo Baby® Plush Pad®, a second set of clothes, or doubles as a wet section for soiled garments.

4. Zippered see-through mesh pocket for lotions, sanitizer, Ah Goo Baby® Pacifier Pouches or other small items.

5. An adjustable (32 to 52 inch), cushioned shoulder strap and stroller rings to make attaching it to
the stroller a breeze.

6. A second gusseted side pocket, insulated for bottles or sippy cups.

7. An anti-microbial interior lining that can be fully pulled out for easy cleaning and crumb drains in the back pocket of the bag.

8. Ample interior space to carry essentials, including two easy access mesh pockets for the Ah Goo Baby® Travel Wipes Case and an Ah Goo Baby® Diaper Pouch.

The Grab & Go bag is approximately 12 inches wide (when looking at the bag from left to right) by 10 inches tall (when looking at the bag, from top to bottom of the bag), and 5 inches deep (when looking at the bag, from the front to the back of the bag). This does not include the gusseted side pockets which will stretch out to fit most bottles and sippy cups (or mobile phone). 

There are also pockets in the back of the bag and inside the top flap. Note that the top flap zippered pocket has an additional inner zippered pocket for change/credit cards.  Similarly, there is a meshed pocket inside the lower bag compartment zippered flap. 

The lower compartment, if empty, collapses allowing the full depth of the bag for the top compartment. If clothing or a plush pad is inserted into the lower compartment, it will float the bottom of the bag upward up to approximately 4 inches tall from the bottom of the bag, leaving approximately 6 inches for the top compartment.

We love this bag and it has now became my husbands bag as he has taken it over. He likes that you can wear it cross body and it is so compact and holds everything to keep hours worth of bottles and diapers. We really like using this bag when we go to the farmers market since it is so busy everyone bumps into you. In the back it has room enough to hold a changing pad, wet bag and wipes holder. It can hold 2-3 AIO diapers and 2-3 bottles. I also had diaper cream, a bib, onesie and a extra outfit. I would say that this is a pretty awesome bag! It comes in 7 other colors I let my son pick the color of this one. 

This bag Is a great quality and I LOVE it.
