CooperVision Giveaway

 ****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.Products were Provided by CooperVision for the Giveaway free of charge****

My vision is important for me to keep up on having two small children, I want to always have up to date check ups to keep my vision the best it can be. Having two kids means a lot of running around,goofing around & a lot of day to day activities which lead to my glasses being knocked off. I also admit that I have fallen asleep with them on which doesn't help they need to be replaced, instead of glasses I have been thinking about getting contacts. When I go in for my next exam I am going to see if they carry CooperVision contacts,their website offers a free trial pair with printed coupon. If my local office doesn't carry CooperVision then I plan on buying them through their website, contacts are easy to use & more convenient than glasses.

Phoenix Comi-Con



It has always been a goal of mine to attend a Comi-Con, but let me tell you I wasn't as prepared as I should have been. First always remember to head to big events early it always helps you beat the traffic & beat the crowd plus it is always nice to get a head start on the day. The Phoenix Comi-con was beyond packed two escalators stopped working due to the sheer mass of people, the only thing I don't like about big events is people tend to push & shove when they are wanting to get somewhere.



After getting our passes & heading into the main hall things cleared out a bit and there were dozens of shops/booths to check out. There were both from big sellers and from local artists along with all the booths for the visiting TV starts,Comic book writers & more some were freely out & about for everyone to chat with and others had set times for signing autographs & for photo ops all scheduled times were posted at their assigned booths which made it easy to plan your day the info was also available on their website. Next year I will have to remember to bring more cash than I had on hand, Photo OPS cost anywhere from $20-$80 depending on who you are taking a photo with & autographs are $30 each. Needless to say I didn't get any photos or autographs instead I explored the store booths we found quite a few goodies that my husband & I liked. If you are looking for a certain character I would suggest going to day one or day two otherwise the more popular character items such as paintings,sketches,ect sell out fast. There were tons of creative & exciting costumes everything from Flash Gordon to Batman & The Joker. I plan to attend again next year,having better knowledge of how everything works I will be much more prepared for next years event and I will be dressing up as well. While we were there we bought an awesome painting of Night Crawler which I will share with you in a separate post.

                          

I found there was a nice mixture of guests who were attending this years Phoenix Comi-Con, some of the guests included Laurie Holden,Chandler Riggs,& Micheal Rooker from The Walking Dead, Sam Witwer from Being Human to Dean Cain who has played Superman & hosted Ripley's believe it or not. I look forward to seeing who attends next year & next year I have set a goal of trying to attend both the Phoenix Comi-con & the San Diego Comi-con.

Nuby Baby Spoon Reivew!



My son is growing up faster than I could have imagined, He is only five months old but he has never been in that "Newborn/Infant" stage. The first week of his life he was a sweet innocent infant then about a week after we arrived home everything changed he wanted to be independent. He has been growing fast both with height & weight he is also ahead of the game when it comes to getting around all over the living room,lifting himself up,standing & more which he has been doing since he was about three months old.

One of the things he Loves to do is eat, He loves trying new foods & will try to steal any food that you yourself are trying to eat. I am excited to share my experience with Feeding Spoons by Nuby. You might be thinking, "What's the big deal? All baby spoons are the same" that is where you would be wrong my friend. When my daughter was a baby I always hated her baby spoons they were too short & I disliked that the spoon itself was plastic covered but the handle was metal. The Feeding spoons are perfect they are long & all plastic, Each package comes in an assortment of colors. I am an odd ball but sometimes I like pairing the color of the spoon to the food that my son will be eating for that meal.

The spoons are easy for both myself & my son to hold onto, I enjoy the amount of food that can be held by this spoon because it creates the perfect bite for my son. This set of baby feeding spoons can be purchased at www.buybabydirect.com,Amazon,TJ Maxx,Tuesday Morning, & www.idealbaby.com ****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used.
