Little Monsters Diaper

Press Sample

Little Monsters Diapers are a line of pocket cloth diapers that was started by a stay at home Mom who got fed up with her little boy getting rashes from disposable diapers.  This line of cloth diapers stems from her desire to offer quality cloth diapers that are cute, high quality, and eco-friendly.  Little Monsters Cloth Diapers are the originator of embroidery on the back of the pocket diaper, and their designs are adorable and their animal appliques include a bunny, a giraffe, a dinosaur, and several more. They also have several monster appliques and even have a crown , and big sunflower, and strawberries.

Little Monsters recently sent me their pink one size Bunny Moon pocket diaper for review.  Of course, the little carrot on it made it too precious to pass up!

Little Monsters Diaper

The body of the diaper is petal pink PUL that is soft to touch. The inner layer is polyester microfleece, which is great for wicking moisture away from baby’s bum. It comes with a one triple layer microfiber insert for stuffing in the pocket.  This diaper has goldenrod colored snaps on it with  a four snap rise and crossover waist tabs for baby’s with bitty bums. With a weight range of 9-35 pounds, it is one of the roomier cloth diapers I now have in my stash. Little Monsters Pink Bunny Diaper

I had to wait until Little Miss hit the 9lb mark to use this one on the smallest rise setting. While the included microfiber insert is thinner than the other microfiber inserts in my stash, it worked for us since Little Miss isn’t a heavy wetter yet.  I will either double stuff or use a different insert once she starts really soaking her diapers.

I can’t wait to use this diaper on her next Easter season.  :D

Little Monsters Diapers retail for $22.99-$99 each.  They also have a Monster Package of five diapers that typically retails for $114.95 and is reduced to $69.99.  That’s just $14 a diaper.

Joovy Black Room2 Playard

Press Sample

With summer fast approaching, and vacation plans getting under way, I couldn’t  help but start to panic a bit when I realized my Aunt no longer had the playard she had loaned to us when Mister and Sister were younger.  What on earth were we going to do?  In my research for a new playard, I landed on the Joovy site and absolutely fell in love with the Black Room2 Playard.

Joovy Room2 Set Up

I like the Black Joovy Room2 Playard for many reasons.  It’s black, which means it will coordinate with anything and is timeless (no outdated prints in two years for us!). It has 10 feet of floor space, making it roomy, which means it will last a long time.  Since it is so roomy, it can accomodate play gym mats, which means I can put the gym mat in the playard and keep an active baby occupied while Mommy cleans around her.  The mesh sides are like huge windows, so baby doesn’t feel like she’s been sentenced to baby jail because she can still SEE Mommy while Mommy cleans around her. It also allows big Sister to keep a watchful eye on baby while she’s sleeping.

Joovy Room 2 Assembled

The sturdy floorboard sits low to the ground, so it is stable.  It is easy to fold and is compact once folded, making it easy to pack in the van.  It is made of the high quality 600D material which means it is durable, and it will last a long time.

The Joovy Room2 Playard comes with one Room² fitted mattress sheet, and additional sheets can be purchased.  The sheets are made to allow the hook/loop straps of the floorboard to pass through, so the floor board can be secured appropriately.

The Joovy Room2 is definitely going to get a lot of mileage from us!

Where to Buy: You can purchase the Joovy Room2 at http://www.joovy.com/

Mamas & Papas Review and Giveaway

Press Sample

Have you shopped Mamas & Papas yet?  They have a line of high quality, innovative family friendly baby products that are both functional AND pleasing to the eye!  mamas & papas logoTake the Baby Snug, for example, that they recently sent me for review.  It is two stage seat that provides stability and support for baby while baby is still learning to sit up.  It SO cute and it has won the PTPA Seal of Approval.

We received the green Baby Snug and as soon as I took it out of the box, Sister wanted to check it out.

Baby Snug Green

I can’t believe her bum fit in the seat.  LOL. My intention was to use Cookie to test it out, since he’s closer to the size of a 3 month old, which is about the age most babies can support their own head.  It has a wide base, giving it stability.  The seat insert, which is soft and can easily be cleaned, can be removed (as shown above) to allow it to grow with your little one.  It also has a removable tray (as shown below) that is a perfect place for a toy or two.  Baby Snug

The seat is extremely lightweight, weighing in at just for pounds, which makes it perfectly portable.  Whether indoors, or outside, this seat will help baby sit up while you sit down!  For safety sake, the Baby Snug should never be used on uneven or raised services, and baby should not be left unattended while the Baby Snug is in use.

Baby Snug with & without tray

Of course, I will have to convince the preschoolers to get out of it before I can put Little Miss in it.  Good thing I have a few months!

Mamas & Papas offers a wide variety of baby gear, from bouncers and toys to strollers and slings, and their products are available at Babies R Us, Toys R Us, on Amazon and online at Mamas & Papas.  Learn more about Mamas and Papas on Facebook. Mamas & Papas would like to give one lucky reader a Tummy Time Activity Toy to help baby learn to love tummy time.  Enter below.

Pink and Brown Crib Bedding plus Giveaway

Press Sample

When Hubs and I were trying to decide how to decorate the nursery, Hubs wanted modern crib bedding.  He wasn’t picky about colors, but he wanted it to have a modern vibe to it.  I spent what felt like an eternity pouring over crib bedding online.  Then I found a pink and brown baby bedding set by JoJo Designs that I adored.  When I showed it to Hubs, he said, “That’s the one.”

We like JoJo Designs and have their Deco Dot Bedding Set for Sister.  I briefly thought about getting the matching crib set for Little Miss, but decided to hold off, because by the time she is old enough to have an opinion AND they share a room, they may have different tastes.  So, pink and brown it is.

pink and brown crib bedding

JoJo Crib Bedding

SO. Pretty! This 9 piece crib set came with a crib comforter that is designed with a pink and brown damask print in the center and an espresso brown border with pink satin ribbon trim.  The crib bumper is in the same materials and the design is the same on both sides, so it is reversible, and it ties on the top and bottom.  The set includes two window valances, a crib skirt, a 100% cotton espresso brown fitted crib sheet, a diaper stacker, a “toy bag” that has 4 pockets, and a decorative pillow.

I have the toy bag tied onto the end of the changing table right now (foot end) so I can put a couple rattles or what not in there for easy reach when I need to occupy Little Miss during a diaper change.  I haven’t quite figured out what to do with the matching bumper pads, since new the expanded set of guidelines released by the American Academy of Pediatrics, on safe sleep and SIDS prevention for babies, recommends against the use of crib bumper pads in infants’ cribs.  With Mister, we had to use the crib bumper pads because of his skin.  With Sister, we skipped them, and she did just fine.

So, what creative ideas do you have for me on how I can use the crib bumper pads?

Pacifiers with Zazzle

Press Sample

When Mister was a baby, he never would take a pacifier.  Sister couldn’t get enough of hers.  Since I don’t know, yet, whether Little Miss will fall in love with the paci like Sister did, or detest it like Mister did, I thought I better stock up (just in case).  I found some adorable BooginHead Custom Pacifiers on Zazzle and just had to have a few.

BooginHead pacifiers are made with a silicone orthodontic nipple and are designed to exceed all safety standards AND look good, because safe doesn’t have to be boring! These custom pacifiers come are available in a 0-6 months or 6+ months size and are 100% BPA, PVC, and Phthalate free.

I ordered the Mute Button, the Pull to Sound Alarm, and a pink Chevron with Zebra bow pacifier.

Zazzle Pacifiers

So cute.  When they arrived, there was a minor defect on the print of the Pull to Sound Alarm Pull to Sound Alarm Pacifier from Zazzlepacifier.  No problem.  I simply notified Zazzle of the problem, and they cued another one for shipment.  I love it when a company stands behind their product and replaces it even for a minor flaw!

The replacement arrived quickly, and was flawless (never mind the bad lighting)!

Pull to Sound Alarm Pacifier

Zazzle also carries an assortment of Baby Shower Invitations and Birth Announcements that are ta die for cute!  I’ll be looking at them more closely once Little Miss arrives!  Zazzle would like to offer one lucky TBC reader one Pull to Sound Alarm Pacifier of their own!
