  • Rub a Dub Dub! Daddy’s Health & Skin Care! GIVEAWAY!

    This Giveaway Is Closed Check the sidebar at the right for my $50 Your Way Giveaway. Daddy and Company appears to be gone. HOWEVER! I found The Honest Company for all your infant’s bath time needs. If you’ve been around my blog, you know, I’m a HUGE fan of Daddy ‘n Company. I’m excited to share with you my thoughts on some of Daddy ‘n Company’s new products from their Health & Skin Care line. Started out that the Pop-Pop had bath wash to try. The Grandkids got wind of the word BUBBLE and that was the end of the Pop-Pops involvement. The Health & Skin Care products from Daddy & Company were developed by Daddy Nickell, pharmacist and daddy of SEVEN!! The products were specifically designed for dads. But, trust me, the kids LOVE them! I LOVE them!! They are gentle, eco-friendly, free of harmful chemicals, and most importantly, safe for you and your children. First, packaging. These are the…

  • Send a Baby! Cutest Little Bear!! GIVEAWAY!!

    I had every intention of giving this adorable Send A Baby bear to a friend with a newborn daughter. Yea….. that’s not gonna happen. I wanted pictures of Alice holding this adorable brown bear decked out in a pink and white t-shirt and pink hat, with “Welcome Little One” on the t-shirt. Alice took one look at this bear and her face lit UP!!! From the second it hit her little hands, this bear has been her constant companion!! She sleeps with the bear, the bear runs errands with us. It was a fight and a half trying to convince Alice that the bear couldn’t go to to art class with her!! She LOVES THIS BEAR!!! This is a newborn gift that will be treasured FOR a LONG time!!! Trust Alice and me!! Extra perk this little bear’s clothes are part of the bear and don’t come off. I say this is an extra perk because Alice is in a ‘every single doll…

  • Baby Magic!! Soft Cotton and Blooms Review

    Is there anything better than snuggling up with a baby after a bath? It’s the perfect way to wind down your day. It’s the start of the bedtime routine. We love bath time!! Alice will play in the bathtub until she is a prune and the water is ice cold!! Since Alice is going to be in the bathtub that long it’s really important that what we use on her skin is GENTLE!!! We found it with Baby Magic!! This is a made-in-the-USA product. Baby Magic has been around forever!! Since the 1950’s! Baby Magic never uses harsh chemicals like 1,4-dioxane or quaternium-15 ingredients. Alice is only two and the most important thing we want is a product that is gentle and effective. I don’t want anything that is going to sting her eyes if she accidentally gets soap in her eyes. I also don’t want anything that dries her skin out. I demand gentle!! Then I get greedy, I…

  • Are ya KIDDIN’ ME!??!!?

    Woke up with a migraine. Had to cancel my date with my Grandson Eli. Noise BAD…. light BAD… Baby Alice was sooo great though she took a nice long nap with me….. no crying all day….. She was SUCH a GOOD girl…. so what does her Nonnie do in return?? Locked her in the car. Yup yup!! Had to get gas before I give Baby Alice back to her mom. So being THE greatest Nonnie EVER… I saw a shady looking grandmotherly looking woman standing on the sidewalk…… of course I believe she knows that the cutest 6 month old baby is in the backseat so I locked the door. (I know these things I watch CSI!!) I insert the nozzle and realize I haven’t pushed the button as I pass the door it ever so gently clicks with the frame of the car. #)#@&$*&^ )#$&(@^#^&^@ @)(&$&N(%&# 47#^ )%&@^!!!!! OHHHH YEA that sucker is locked. @#)$&**(@&#@& %)#&%*#&$ @)$*#$^ A…

  • Chubby Cheeks!

    Ohhhhh somebody found her thumb today! LOOK AT THAT FACE!!!! Is that not one of the sweetest faces ever!?!? If walls could talk, my blog would whisper, “It wasn’t me.”Because somehow, somewhere between coffee refills and letting the dog out, the Ghost of Peanut Butter and Whine keeps sneaking in and removing pictures and videos. I don’t delete them. I would remember that. I am a responsible adult who double-checks things. And yet… photos vanish. Videos evaporate. Blog posts wake up looking underdressed, like they forgot their pants. Cue dramatic music. After the fifth “Where did that image go?” moment, I decided to stop fighting the paranormal and use it as an opportunity. If the ghost insists on rearranging my content, then I’m going to roll up my sleeves and improve my SEO score while I’m at it. Because if I’m re-uploading images anyway, they might as well have proper file names, alt text, and sizes that don’t make Google sigh…
