SEPTEMBER FAVORITES!!!

I am so excited for this month's favorites post!

I love that we are getting so close to the holidays because all of this amazing stuff is showing up in my emails, Facebook, and Pinterest feeds.

Let's jump right in!

J Crew Inspired Ombre Statement Bubble Necklace by CoziBear Boutique

How beautiful is this? I love how pretty this necklace is! I'm not a huge fan of the ombre trend, but for some reason this just makes me smile. It comes in three other colors... greens, blues and purples.

Fold over elastic 5/8th inch by Sunshine Shop Supply

Have you seen those cute hair elastics that people are selling? They are so cute, but really? I'm not going to pay $10 for 5 of them when I can buy a whole yard for $0.50 and make them myself. And I can get the exact colors I want. Right now they even have Halloween styles!

So fun, right?

Scrubbing Bubbles

I've been a fan of Scrubbing Bubbles since they came out. I mean seriously... you spray, let it sit for a couple of minutes and then just wipe off. It makes bathroom cleaning so much easier! I not only use this in my bathroom, but I also use it to clean off my baseboards. Just spray, wait a minute and wipe! It doesn't remove the paint! I buy the 4 pack at Costco for around $12, but I usually wait until I have the coupon for $2 off.

Baby Blue Herringbone Personalized Tie Bodysuit & Wood Button Leg Warmers Set by Chic Couture Boutique

As a mom of two boys, I know how important it is to share with moms of boys cute boys clothing because it really is few and far in between! This site has the cutest little boy clothes! They also do the T-shirts for older boys with the sew on tie. I love this look!

Reversible Batman & Robin Superhero & Mask by Just Kid'n Designs

My oldest has just come to that age where he knows what Halloween is, fascinated with Santa Claus and gets excited to see fireworks! It's an exciting time at our house! He's also come to learn about superheroes and in our house Batman reigns supreme. These cute capes and mask are right up his alley! And they are on his Christmas list!

And don't worry! They've got your little girl covered too!

Adorable!

AUGUST FAVORITES!!!

You guys! 

I had so much fun showing you my favorite things last month that I had to do it this month too!!!

Ok, here is the mom in me!

My two top favorites are centered on my kids.

1. AVA the Elephant Thermometer Stickers

My little guys hate, Hate, HATE getting their temperature taken! This is genius my friends! Stick it on their head and it works for 24 hours. My boys love elephants, so this is their most favorite thing! They are latex free, hypoallergenic and a must have for the upcoming cold and flu season!

2. AVA Talking Medicine Dispenser

 While checking out the thermometer stickers, check out this clever tool too! Not only is it a cute medicine dispenser, but it talks. "One, two, three... Open wide. Good Job!" It definitely makes it easier! And my boys love it!

3. Wonderful Bracelet

I love these bracelets. I actually have a few. My husband got them for my birthday last year. The girl who makes them is incredibly sweet. She's in China, so be prepared to wait about 3-4 weeks for your order. There are so many different styles and colors, you are bound to find something you like. If not, you could customize it.

4. On the Go Fun and Snack Tray

I have two of these, one for each of my boys. They make traveling so much easier. My family lives 3 hours away and this really helps make the ride a little more tolerable. We attach it to my boys seats and they are usually good half the way down playing with puzzles and cars and dinosaurs. The other half is then enjoyed while watching a movie.

5. Oldies Classic T

It saddens me to think that in 20 years, kids won't know what this means.

Here are few of my other favorites from Skreened.

You can also create your own.  They do tanks, tees and hoodies.

What are some of your favorites?

What should I try? If I like it, I may feature it here. So, please share your favorites!

MY FAVORITES!!!

I thought I'd do a post today on some of my most favorite things. 

I've never done this kind of post, but I want to start. So, we will see how this post goes.

I've compiled my top 5 favorite things right now.

1. Gourmet Grammarian Dish Set from Modcloth

I have an unhealthy habit of correcting others grammar habits. Now don't get me wrong, I make the occasional error. We all do. I'm talking about the guy who constantly uses the wrong "there" or the girl who doesn't know the difference between "then" and "than". I can only let it slide for so long before I snap!

These would make a lovely addition to my home!

2. Mace Gun by oBaz

I think every girl should be protected with a can of mace and this is definitely an awesome way to store and use it. This pink mace gun is a fully-loaded self-defense tool holding a canister of pepper spray. It emits a powerful stream of OC formula up to 20 ft in length. The trigger also activates a LED light that will ensure you hit a target. It also included a water practice cartridge.

3. Stretch by Infantino

My little guys prefer the cheap strollers you can find at Wal-mart. But I don't for one major reason... no place to store my stuff. These are amazing! The Stretch is the first stroller storage product designed exclusively for umbrella strollers. The unique flex material and tension fit design ensures a secure, no-slip fit every time. Easy-on and easy-off attachment gets you rolling in a snap. With insulated drink holders and multiple storage pockets for you and baby, you’ll have everything you need within reach. Just attach and go! 

4. Extender Slip Lace from Modest Closet

I'm definitely more of a modest kind of gal. I always have been. However, the modest clothing is not always the cutest, luckily this site has such cute clothing. Most of all it helps me to take my skirts and dresses that are a little too short for my taste, and make them more appropriate for those PTA and Girl Scout meetings.

5. Total Repair 5 Damage Erasing Balm by L'Oreal

You guys! My hair has never felt so amazing! The erasing balm is specially formulated for damaged, over processed and chemically treated hair. This intense luxurious reconstructing balm repairs: split ends, weak, rough, dull and dehydrated hair. It is said to repair up to 1 year of damage in 1 use! Boy oh boy, it sure does! Try it, trust me! It will help!

Let me know what you think!
