Janiebee Review & Giveaway!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.The products mentioned below have been provided by Janiebee for the review & giveaway free of charge.****

My son is four, he is at the stage where he doesn't need to take a nap every single day but naps can still be useful when he is being extra cranky due to going to bed late the night before. During the week I work a full time job and he stays in the care of a relative while I work, it is a bit of a pain to get him to nap anywhere but home so I wanted to test out a nap mat to see if it would help. Janiebee is a company that sells comfortable quilted nap mats, I was drawn to them because they offer several mink mats. My son is obsessed with soft blankets and pillows so I figured getting a mink nap mat would be a huge hit with him and boy was I right.





For my review I selected the "Samuel nap mat" which is a mat that has a Navy Mat top/bottom with a Platinum blanket and pillowcase it also includes Red ties straps and name plate with navy thread. The mat measures 21" wide and 53" long which is the perfect length, the blanket is just slightly wider than the mat by about two maybe three inches. The mat itself is padded and a pillow is included, the mat is completely washable and the pillow is removable for when you wash it. My son uses this nap mat for everything, he insists on it being on his bed at night and in the morning when it is time to go for the day so I can work it gets rolled up and brought with us so I've washed this a few times and it is still soft as can be and looks brand new.

The mat has a carry strap which makes it easy to transport when it is rolled up, above you can see how my son enjoys carrying this he thinks of it as his soft backpack and has rolled stuff animals up in it to go along on the journey. This mat has helped improve naps both in the house and out because he wants to lay on the soft blanket and mat. I adore this mat and I am so happy my son enjoys it as well. Along with mink mats Janiebee sells a number of other material mats, backpacks, lunch sacks and more. The nap mats can be purchased for $119.99 or you can get a promo mat for $89, or you can enter below for your chance to win your own nap mat of choice.

Mama Lee's Bakery Review!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.The products mentioned below have been provided by Mama Lee's for the review free of charge.****

Macarons seem to have become quite popular over the last year or so and I can see why because they are quite adorable and come in a wide range of fun colors and flavors. Up until a few months ago I had never tried a macaron until my step-dad bought some and let everyone try them, I thought they were good but I knew they had to taste better being consumed within a few days of them being baked. Mama Lee's Bakery is a small business based out of  Atlanta, Georgia and her products can be bought online via their Etsy shop. Store owner Mama Lee sells vegan macarons, doughnuts, brownies and tarts. Pssst she also sells Mickey Mouse shaped macarons!!!!





Mama Lee's agreed to work together on a product review of some of her macarons, she offers fourteen delicious sounding flavors, I couldn't decide which sounded best so I told her to surprise me. When I received my package everything was boxed up beautifully, they came in a small white bakery box with string tied around it and everything was placed into the box with pink tissue paper.What flavor did I receive? I received Birthday cake complete with sprinkles in the filling. The macarons were a tiffany blue color and had sprinkle filling inside, each one was baked perfectly it had a nice crunch on the outside and was soft/chewy on the inside they were quite delicious. Each one had just the right amount of filling, there wasn't so much that it ruined the crunch to chew ratio and it wasn't so little you weren't able to taste it. My only complaint? How quickly they get devoured when several people are eating them, I wish I had more! I also wanted to mention that these are Gluten free, dairy free, egg free--totally vegan and wanted to let you know they are made in a kitchen which contains tree nuts, peanuts, soy, and/or wheat so if you have allergies that is something to be aware of. You can purchase a dozen for $25 plus shipping which is a really great price for macarons.

Honeysuckle & Lime Etsy Shop Review!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.The products mentioned below have been provided by Honeysuckle & Lime for the review free of charge.****

We were extremely lucky when we found our home, it has a small room when you first walk in which could be considered a den or secondary living room, we use this room as the kids playroom/TV room. The only issue with it being the kids room means there isn't a lot of room for furniture because they have plenty of toys and bookshelves that take up room so I am always on the look out for small yet comfortable furniture for their room. At the moment they only have one of those kids metal table/chair sets so I wanted to get something more welcoming and soft on their bottoms.





A great shop on Etsy called Honeysuckle & Lime sells an assortment of bean bag sacks, bags, and more. We had a set of bean bag chairs once upon a time ago which were store bought but they were complete garbage and started ripping apart after a month of use causing beans to go everywhere so I was excited these were made from a canvas type fabric that is thick yet soft. Each one is handmade with love by shop owner Ari. The thing that stands out the most with these bean bag covers is that she created them so they are double sacks, it has an inner bag which holds all of the beans and an outter bag which sits around the inner giving it double protection so no beans can escape. The inner bag can be opened or closed using a paper clip as shown above.

 The bean bag covers ship from Australia so depending on where you are the covers might take several days to reach you but they are well worth the wait. You can request a customized bag with your child's name on it (Note; I have removed my children's names aside from first initial from the photos above) and you can request the logo on your child's bag be their favorite color. The covers also come in different sizes depending on your child's age, I received one of the larger sizes and my kids love it. As you can see from the photo above my son often likes to kick back and watch TV on his bean bag chair or take a nap on it. When purchasing a bean bag cover please note that it is just that a cover, you will not receive the beans that go inside these will need to be purchased separately. I found large bags at Joann's each bag was $24.99 but you can print out a coupon for 50% off on item which will help cut costs down, each cover took two bags. The covers are washable you can remove the inner bag from the outter or you can hand wipe them off with a rag. The materials used are sturdy and feel like they will last for several years, I am very happy with this product! The shop is currently on vacation until July 10th but be sure to stop by and check out everything she has to offer, she makes high quality kids products.

Power Perch Review!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.The products mentioned below have been provided by Power Perch for the review free of charge.****

Every single home has some kind of electronic that has to be charged at one point during the day, whether it is a phone or a tablet you don't want to just lay it on the floor in case someone steps on it but if there isn't a shelf or something near to set it on what are you to do? Power Perch is the answer!

I think this little shelf is a pretty neat idea that can help keep cords from getting tangled and trampled on. We have a spot in our living room where there is typically a tablet and phone charging at once but it is in a spot where we don't have a table so everything is just sitting on the floor. This Power Perch is nice because I can set the tablet or phone on top and have the cords running through the small hole you see above to help keep the cords from getting tangled and it will prevent anyone from tripping on the cords. Power Perch is sold in single packs, twin packs,triple packs and four packs plus they offer two different sizes. You can purchase them directly from their website or you can buy them on Amazon. Installing this took about two minutes and was quite simple.

Sleeping Baby Giveaway & Review!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.The products mentioned below have been provided by Sleeping Baby for the review & giveaway free of charge.****

I enjoy being comfortable while I am sleeping, if I am too hot during the summer or too cold during the winter it is difficult to fall asleep and I know it is the same way for my kids. I enjoy looking for sleep ware that helps keep them comfortable to give them a good nights sleep. A company called Sleeping Baby sells an assortment of fun and functional onesies and pajamas for infants, babies and toddlers. For a recent review I was sent a Little Monster Flying Squirrel Pajama set in a 4T/5T. They are made from a stretchy and breathable fabric that is perfect for kids to help keep their body temperature regulated.





My son is just outside of the 5T size range but I figured I would try these out anyways and if they didn't fit my godson is much younger than my son. When they arrived I was a little shocked at how big they were and knew right away they would in fact fit my son, they were tall enough I laughed with my fiance that I could probably wear them.The design of the pajamas are unique, they have extra material under the arms and along the sides towards the legs. If you were to stand with your arms and legs spread out it would give you the appearance of being a flying squirrel or sugar glider. The wrists and ankles of these are tighter to the body to give them a perfect fit feeling while the rest is a bit loose which gives you a good nights sleep. One of my favorite parts of this PJ set is that the neck area has extra material for the zipper to tuck into so the zipper doesn't rub on your childs neck or cause irritation. They are zippered PJ's and do not have a back flap for the bathroom so your child will need to pull them mostly off before being able to use the bathroom. Each pair of flying squirrel Pj's sells for $36.95 each and come in an assortment of designs for both boys and girls. They also sell nap mats and other kid friendly products.



Prize Alert:
One lucky winner is going to receive their own pair of Flying Squirrel PJs for either a boy or a girl.

Luv & Emma's Dry Pets Review & Giveaway!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.The products mentioned below have been provided by Luv & Emma for the review & giveaway free of charge.****

Ferrets can be pretty messy and our male Starlord seems to be a dirt magnet so we give them baths every few days, since they are pretty small and their fur can hold a lot of water we like to make sure they are completely dry when they get out of the tub. When you are trying to wrangle to ferrets into towels it can be a little bit of a pain without any help but the new towel we received from Luv & Emma's helps make things a bit easier because their pet towels have a hole in them so you can hang it on a door knob to make reaching them easier. I have a closet right next to where the bath tub is so it is nice to have this towel hanging right where I can reach it and still keep an eye on the ferrets.





This pet towel comes in two sizes, the Luv & Emma's Dry Pets which is 21"x17" and the Luv & Emma's Dry Pets Plus which is 36"x26". The larger size has a door handle hole on each side so that you can double it up and not have the towel dragging on the floor. The handle hole makes this easy to use in the bathroom or to keep next to your backdoor so you can dry your pets off as they are coming into the house. They use an absorbent microfiber fabric to create their towels and it really does help dry the ferrets off faster than the regular bath towel we were using before and the ferrets seem more comfortable in this towel, it is the perfect size to wrap them up into a little bundle to dry them off with. The towel is machine washable which will make it easy to clean and dry for reusing again. The original cost $12.95 + Shipping and the plus is $15.95 + shipping. This product is great for dogs, ferrets, etc.

Prize Alert:
One lucky reader is going to win their own Luv & Emma's Dry Pets 21"x17" towel.
