BABY SHOWER ITEMS

Remember how I recently posted that more babies are born in the month of August than any other month? It's still true. So that means lady readers might be invited to some baby showers in the coming months. What do you buy as a present? Here are some ideas:

#1 Baby Gift Set - Plush Chihuahua

So you were invited to a party and you don't have time to shop and wrap a gift (or you just need a totally cute, hassle-free present full of baby shower items). Well, this is your solution. This baby set includes a plush and snuggle webkinz dog, yellow terrycloth baby bib (with "Mommy's little Angel" embroidered on it), and a yellow and white 30"x30" plush baby blanket and it comes with a green gift bag (with a picture of an expecting mother wearing a pink dress on the bag and matching attached card) and yellow tissue paper. #babyshoweritems

#2 Mamaway Baby Sling

The Mamaway ring sling is an all-around baby carrier that is perfect for your newborn babe. It is made of 100% cotton fabric that provides full support once tightened. You can position your baby whichever way is most comfortable or convenient: upright or lying down, in front, on your hip or behind your back so you can have hands-free cuddles or be able to do things while keeping your baby close. This can also be used to cover baby for feeding so mama and baby can bond with some privacy. It weighs 14.4 oz and is machine washable so it is super easy to care for this product. It is also easy to store in it's own little attached pocket. You will be so happy with this purchase.

#3 Berlando Baby Blanket

This blanket is perfect for baby boy. It comes in a blue, grey, and white chevron print on one side and plain white on the other. It is 32x26 inches and is made of 100% microfiber polyester. Every baby needs a good pinky blanket to use in the stroller, to swaddle, cuddle, use when travel, or just carry everywhere. This is super high quality, soft, and snuggly. (I secretly want one in my size). It is also machine washable!! #berlando

#4 Baby Car Seat Cover & Bandana Drool Bib Gift Set

This car seat cover is super stylish. It is stretchy and fits most carseat and even be used as a nursing, shopping cart,and high chair covers. You can protect baby from the weather or just have a little privacy. It comes with a drawstring carrying bag and a bonus set of bandana style drool bibs. The bibs are made of 100% soft cotton and are adjustable (with snaps) to fit a neck circumstance from 35 cm to 40 cm. It comes in super cute packaging that is ready to be given as a gift. 

#5 Pack N Play Placard Sheets

This crib sheet set from Ziggy Baby is made from 100% jersey knit and so soft and cuddly. Since they are jersey knit, they are lightweight and breathable as well. The sheets fit a standard play-yard mat or mattress up to 4 inches. They have deep 5" pockets for a secure fit (the official measurements are 24 x 38 x 5 inches). You get two sheets with your purchase so you have a back up when one is dirty. If one does get dirty (baby accidents do happen), they are machine washable so clean up is simple. They are gender neutral in grey and white and come in cute polka dot and chevron designs. In my opinion, they are simple yet stylish. The Ziggy Baby company offers a fabulous satisfaction guarantee if you aren't satisfied with your purchase (but I am sure you will be) and I love a company that gives great customer support. #ziggybaby

#6 The BEST Baby Sling Carrier

This baby sling carrier can be worn on both the front and back (as baby gets bigger - up to 35 lbs). It has a cute floral embroidered pattern on the front that is stylish and unisex pattern. It has padded straps similar to a backpack that makes it comfortable to wear. It is made of cotton so it is machine washable and cozy for baby to sit in it. It is extremely stable when baby is inside when it is tied around. Baby-wearing is super important for bonding with baby and parent.

#7 Revelae Kids Cozy Blanket Pouches

If you have a wiggly sleeper, then this pouch from #RevelaeKids is for you! This is like a cuddly (100% soft polyester) baby blanket made into a pouch. It has a elastic to stay on baby with plenty of room for baby to still move their legs. The purpose of this pouch is to make sure baby stays warm and comfortable during their naps. It is super cozy and fabulous. I wish I could order one in my size! It comes in a few sizes and colors. 

#8 Baby Car Mirror & Safety Bundle

This bundle is perfect. It comes in a nice box with:

1. Yes baby car mirror - made with shatter proof glass, a secure strap system to hold it in place, convex mirror, and pivot joint that let's you angle it so you can have a perfect view of baby in the back seat.

2. Cute pink baby fork and spoon set. They are made of silicone and have a unique color changing technology that changes with the food's temperature.

3. Reflective "Baby on Board" sign that sticks with a suction cup to the car window. 

4. Access to a digital guide (The Aftermath of Acid vs Alkaline - PH - The Ignored Secret to Your Baby's Health!).

5. 5 year 100% satisfaction warranty on the mirror. I love when a company will back their products and ensure quality! #YesBaby

HEALTHY TOOLS

Spring is here! What does that mean? In Utah, it means crazy, unpredictable weather, but it also means swimsuit weather is coming soon. For some of us, that means we need to get in shape.

Zenwise Labs makes an Advanced Green Tea Extract that contains a specialized blend of Green Tea and Vitamin C. Green Tea extract has been shown to assist in weight loss, lower the risk of heart disease, and lower cholesterol without making you feel shaky or jittery. By adding Vitamin C, you can increase the antioxidant effects and boost your immune system. All of their products are all-natural, made in the USA, and GMP certified so you don't have to worry about the quality of the ingredients you are putting into your body.

 Since I know you'll love that Zenwise Labs product so much, I will tell you about two other products they have available as well. Pictured above is a pre-workout that will give you the energy you need to boost your workouts, runs, or various physical activity. It will give you that extra boost to help you work a little harder. Some of the unique ingredients include L Arginine, L Ornithine, and L Citrulline, which have been shown to increase nitric oxide levels, support muscular energy, and delay fatigue.

This Hair Growth product has Biotin and 27 high-quality ingredients that are designed to help revitalize and nourish your hair. It is allergen-friendly, meaning it contains absolutely NO gluten, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, soybeans, eggs, or fish so it is great for everyone. Zenwise Labs offer a 100% no-hassle manufacturer guarantee for all their products. This means if you do not get the results that you were looking for, simply let them know and they will provide you with a full refund. I love when companies stand by their products.

Another necessary thing I recommend for staying healthy is stretching. Sometimes tightness in your muscles can interfere with your sleep and stretching those muscles can only do so much. That's when you need a foam roller. This one from Rolling With It is 36 inches long and 6 inches around which is a perfect length for full back therapy to eliminate pain and improve mobility and flexibility.

It doesn't matter your weight or level of physical expertise, this foam roller will work for you.

Possibly THE most important new tool for me this season is this 

Treat My Feet Electronic (Battery Operated) Foot File & Callus Remover

 This device is easy to use, battery operated (just 2 AA batteries), and will change your life forever. It will look like you spent tons of money at the spa on your pedicure after just one use. It takes just a few minutes and you can do it in the privacy of your own home.

The kit comes with the device, an extra roller, cleaning brush, and instructions. You will not regret purchasing this -- in fact, you might want to buy one for yourself and one to give away as a gift! #treatmyfeet

#ReverseYourRoutine

TRESemme has come out with a new conditioner you use first and shampoo that you use second. It sounds crazy, right?! But it is fabulous! It will leave you hair smooth and polished but still full of bounce. You must add this to your make your hair more beauty-full.

I received these products at a discounted price in return for my honest opinion.

ALISON'S HIP HOP HOORAY PARTY

Alison from The Alison Show throws super fun parties in Utah County. This one had a 90's hip-hop theme and was called Alison's Hip Hop Hooray. 

So I grabbed some gal pals, gold hoops/chains, some pretty tacky denim/street gear and we partied like it was 1990-something!

 All of Alison's parties include sweet photo opportunities, 

amazing swag,

tons of fun,

a throne of awesomeness,

plenty of Alison,

and some great booty shaking!

See you at the next party.

I had the opportunity to spend a few days in Idaho.

I hopped on a super sketchy greyhound bus and a few hours later I was in Boise.

Boise is actually a super charming city.

It's full of creative food (including fries),

fun buildings, entertainment,

graffiti art,

places to hike with great views,

summer Saturday markets outside the capitol building, 

and so much more.

So if you're looking for a super fabulous quick getaway, consider exploring Idaho.
