Baby Brezza One Step Baby Food Maker

If there is one product I could recommend to a mother with a baby at the age of exploring foods it would be the Baby Brezza.  You can buy one for  $99.99.  It will easily pay its self off in no time and can be used again with future children for even more savings.  Most brand name jarred baby food run for .60 – $1 + per jar depending on size, stage, and brand.  As your child gets more into eating solids you will find yourself buying many jars of different foods and going through them just as fast.  The Baby Brezza is simple to use and doesn’t take long to whip up something quick, healthy and fresh for your child.  You can use all the foods that you would normally eat and buy.  Make sure that you start with age appropriate foods and wait a week before introducing new foods just like with jarred foods.  It came with a bunch of recipe cards also to help start you out.

It really is a one step baby food maker. You can steam or steam & blend foods. Simply prepare your fruit, vegetable even meats and place it in. You set your time that it needs to cook and once that is done it blends the food to be smooth and easy for your young one to eat. You can freeze the leftovers in cube trays and defrost with your Baby Brezza when needed. I really like mine and even use it when wanting to make a quick applesauce for my oldest. I’ve gone down the route of steaming the veggies, fruits, etc on the stove and than putting in the blender, but I prefer my Baby breeza since it saves me time and I only need to use it. I’ve also used jarred baby foods with my oldest when he was younger, but much prefer making my own baby food and that’s just what I did for my youngest. He turns his head to any jarred food, but will happily try any fresh food placed in front of him. From my observations fresh made baby food smells & even has a better taste.
It doesn’t take up much room on the counter. It has suction cups on the bottom so, it doesn’t slip around. Simple to clean. It’s a 5/5 rating in my eyes and will be used for any future children.

mama mio Goodbye Stretch Marks


Being a mother of 2 I didn’t get away Stretch mark free.  I thought I did after my first, but once my second came I got stretch marks on my hips and stomach.  I know that their isn’t any miracle cream that will make stretch marks go away 100% over night, but thanks to mama mio you can help them fade up to 70%  and be smoother.  It works on both new and old stretch marks and is completely safe while pregnant or breastfeeding.  The results do not show up over night and took a few weeks for me to notice it working, but it’s safe to say that they have faded some and seem a lot smoother and level with the rest of my skin.  It’s recommended that you apply Goodbye Stretch Marks 3 times a day for 12 weeks.

mama mio Goodbye Stretch Marks comes in a 100mL (3.4oz) pump style bottle.  When the cream first comes out you will see that it is a thicker cream and white.  It rubs into the skin easily and leaves a nice fresh scent that isn’t over powering.  It left my skin feeling silky smooth and not greasy.  The cream is Paraben, Petrolatum & colourant free.

If I knew about mama mio products back when I was pregnant I would have given them a try.  They offer many different products that can be used while pregnant that can help you avoid stretch marks which include creams, oils, body butters.  They don’t stop at just pregnancy skincare though they have a product line that has something for all your troubled areas face, waist, legs, bust, neck, etc.  You can purchase them in singles or in kits that include all you need.  The kits would be great for any mother or mother to be to receive.

Dr Beckmann Stain Devils #5

I recently tried out Dr Beckmann Stain Devil stain removers.  I decided to tackle the hardest stain I’ve encountered.  The wall beside my oven seems to get it pretty bad when I  decide to fry something or make a sauce.  Even with my best efforts to protect the wall sometimes some cooking oils splash on the wall.  In the past I have found these stains to be pretty hard to get out.  So when I saw a stain remover that is targeted for “Fat and cooking oils” I knew it was something I had to put to the test.  Step 1 place a cloth below and apply the product to the effected area.  Let the product sit for 10-15 minutes.  Than use a dry cloth and work from the outside in.  Repeat is necessary.  I found it did  help loosen up the oils and made it easier to remove.

They don’t stop at just Cooking oils and grease.  They have a full selection of 9 other stain removers for everything you can think of.  Plus some for laundry that can help with color run or mixing colors  while washing.  You can now find Dr Beckmann Stain Devils in Walmart Super Centers in Canada.  This was the first time I have heard of them, but glad I did because in life you also run across a stain that is stubborn to remove and it’s nice knowing that Dr Beckmann has the right solution to make the job easier.

Sidral Mundet {Apple Flavored Soft Drinks} Review

 

I recently got the chance to try out Sidral Mundet.  Before that I had never heard of it, but it is a company that has been busy since 1902 in Mexico making amazing drinks. Sidral Mundet is an apple flavored soft drink that comes in Original and my favorite Green Apple.  It comes packaged in a 12oz glass bottle and is refreshing and sweet.    It comes from natural flavors and contains no artificial flavors.  Mexican Mothers have used it as a home remedy when their children had upset stomachs to help provide hydration.  It’s a popular brand in Mexico, but you can find it in other places.  Check out Facebook to find the Store Locator and try it out for yourself.

Weight Watchers Scales by Conair Review & Giveaway



I was given the opportunity to try out the Glass Body Analysis Scale by Conair.  It can help you track your body fat, body water, bone mass and BMI.  When loosing weight it’s nice to be able to keep track of everything and be able to keep all your information in one spot.  The scale can hold up to 4 users information.

Features I really like

Large 1.9″ LCD Screen.  It’s lite up with a back light blue screen and it has 2 lines to display all your information on.

Bio Impedance Analysis.  Keep track of 4 users body fat, body water, bone mass and BMI.

The design is really nice and slim.  This isn’t a scale you will want to be hiding.  It’s made with Safety Tempered glass and Stainless steel.  It can hold up to 400lbs/180kgs.  Simple switch on the bottom to switch from lbs to kgs.  Tap the glass with your foot and your scale is ready to go.

It takes your measurements in 0.1lb/50g increments to give you an accurate reading.  Remember when you measure yourself it’s best to check your weight at the same time of the day as weight tends to change throughout the day.  It’s recommended to do it first thing in the morning when weight is the lowest.

I’ve been using it for the last week and I’m happy with it.  It’s going to be a very useful tool while keeping track of my weight loss.  It was even able to get an accurate reading with my 3 year old who can never stand still for long.  It takes a few steps to get your personal data all set up, but than your ready to go.  The scale also comes with a 10 year warranty.  You can purchase The Weight Watchers Scales by Conair Nationwide or online at http://www.conair-store.com
