Shop Pink Blush

Dress c/o Shop Pink Blush

Ever since becoming a mom getting out and shopping has become a task. Well more like non existent at that. Online shopping has become more of a staple around here with two littles that just don't enjoy it as much as mama. Thanks to Shop Pink Blush for being one of the cutest women's online boutiques. They have cute dresses for women, maternity and to my surprise non maternity as well. Ive followed them for a while and had no idea they had trendy clothes for all women. 

Shop Pink Blush has clothes for everyone and every season, like this dress that is perfect for spring. I wore it as a tunic but I can tell with this weather starting to heat up and feel more like summer, Ill be paring it with some sandals for a comfortable yet put together look. 

Check them out for an easy trendy online shopping experience. 

Also follow along on IG for a chance to win shop credit this next week

Nuby Stainless Steel Food Jar

Kids and meal time is super rough around here. Parents of toddlers you fee me? Both my kids use to be such great eaters, but around 2 yrs old something just switched and they've been the pickiest ever since. I've tried hiding veggies in other foods and the whole shebang but the only thing that has seemed to work for us has been variety and consistency. 

My kids LOVE to snack and when offered smaller portions of a variety of foods they seem to eat better. They have options and it makes them feel like they are in charge. Little do they know! 

These Nuby jars have given us the ability to offer some of our favorite snacks while out and about in this AZ heat. The double walled stainless steal has helped keep foods cold and without the pesky sweating. We also love the hidden top compartment where we can keep dryer snacks hidden and the folding travel spoon for the number one favorite snack- yogurt!

These jars are great for travel keeping cold up to 7 hours and warm up to 6 hours.

If you've ever wanted to try some of these Nuby products lucky for you 

Babies R Us Mega-licious Mealtime sale is now through March 30th.

I was offered these products in collaboration with The Nuby Parent Blogger program but all thoughts and opinions are my own. 

Bath Time Fun With Nuby

Bath time is a definite favorite in our house! The kids have fun, they get clean, and for mama it means bedtime is nearing and thats my favorite time of day.

Nuby has been a favorite of ours for sometime now and these recent additions to their collection don't disappoint. 

Starting with the Hot Safe Bath Duck- the letters turn white if the bath water is hot. We haven't ever used a bath thermometer, usually just by touch. Lately daddies touch is a little hotter than our liking so the kids have had fun checking on it.

These Bath Links have been the highlight of bath time. Teaching coordination as they link them together across the tub. The best part for these guys is the squirting animals that come with them. 

I mean who doesn't want to have that kind of fun to end their day.

Both toys can be found at amazon

Review: Freshly Picked

Alright guys, we are not new to this gig!

These tiny little guys right here are the cutest little things EVER!!

This house definitely knows the name Freshly Picked. My little miss wore them as soon as we could get them on her feet and now at almost 3yrs old she's still sporting them. Durable and oh so cute right!?

One of the reasons I chose and will continue to choose them for a first shoe is the little imprint the little babes foot leaves behind. Perfect for the memory box, a little memory of just how little they once were. 

If you want to see why so many people (including me) get so excited about these adorable moccasins, head over to my Instagram account and enter to win a pair of your own!

Happy Labor Day, relax and enjoy your family!

Potty Training Struggle

We have been doing so well! So whats the problem?

My little miss has been doing the whole peeing in the potty thing for sometime now. Always goes when we put her on and will run to the potty if not in a pull-up and has to go poop. Yep I said it, no shame in the poop game! 

We've been doing pull ups only at nap time and bedtime, sometimes she even wakes up dry. She is just so unpredictable. Ill have her go pee right before leaving somewhere and she will have to go not even 30 minutes later, without warning she will just GO. What the what right? 

Having more than one kid you know that life doesn't always stop and make things easy on you. So one thing Ive found to help us through this bootcamp time is a potty in the car. 

We have been loving this Nuby potty seat. The non-skid seat makes back seat storage easy, and the removable basin helps ease of clean up. 

Some days allow for us to be home majority of the time, but others we are out and about all day. With my little guy we could pull over and he'd pee on some rocks. I know, it's what little boys do right? But with this little lady that's not possible, enter the car potty. 

Ive also packed wipes, plastic bags, and extra clothes for the just in case times. 

Im hoping we are about to enter into the more predictable stage her soon and we can be breathe again. If anyone has any tips on what worked for them please do share.

If you would like to try out the potty seat you can find it here:

Search Has Ended

We have been trying out new "no spill" sippy cups for sometime now. Never truly finding one that fits our needs or actually does what it claims. I believe the search has ended! Recently gifted a feeding set to test out from re-play and we were most excited to try the no spill cup. Both babes like to have water when going to bed and we have our morning hangs in my room most mornings. We have all too often ended with puddles on the mattress or what seemed like a leaked diaper when it was from the cups we were using. These cups passed the nap time test and are just too cute to look at, not to mention made from recycled material!

We'll be testing out the rest of the set and already shopping for more of the cute colors! If you want to win a set of your own head over to my Instagram account @brittpapke for details. 

Shop re-play to see their story and shop the products!

Kindergarten

School is now in full swing over here, we are on week 3. I still cannot believe I have a Kindergartener and we are all still getting used to the schedule. 

We have a lot of juggling we have to do between everyones schedules and that I work outside of the house part time. I wanted to share one thing that has not only made back to school easy, but fun for us!

These little labels have been a lifesaver. Mabel's Labels sent us the little kid combo pack to test out and help kick start our year. Although little man did not have much that needed labeling, what did you can believe we stuck these cute little guys to.

Backpack labeled, tag stuck on lunch box, water bottle and our new bento boxes too. Im majorly impressed with the durability and how well they stick. We have run the water bottles and bento boxes through the dish washer multiple times and no sign of peeling yet. 

Take a look at their site there are so many cute customizable options.

We are sold!!

Nuby Review: Busy Sipper 2 Stage Cup

Little mans new favorite cup to use!! 

This 2 stage cup has won his heart over simply because of the "cool" features.

Mind you he's four (almost 5 ahhh) so simply just being a cup isn't enough. 

This cup comes with 2 interchangeable tops-

- a soft no spill spout

- free flow pop up sipper

We obviously use the second stage. 

He loves the belt clip, cause lets just face it who doesn't want there cup hanging off there pants. At four years old anything that makes him feel like a power ranger or police man is a plus in his book. 

Seeing how he chooses this cup most often, on school days my mommy heart is happy he has the hygienic travel cover so germs aren't mingling.

Check out those Spiderman fingers there people- told you he felt cool with it. 

Available at Walmart

Hey All! Hope everyone is geared up and ready for Easter weekend!! It's Spring and yet in Arizona we don't play around and go straight into Summer!

We need to stay hydrated here and what better way with toddlers than a straw cup that is no spill might I add! Mommy's favorite feature!! It's got such a cute design and the flip top keeps the straw clean- keeps those germs away! 

The soft silicone straw makes it easier for little ones to transition. 

Little Miss loves her cup and even works the flip top herself.

Such a great cup for on the go drinking and storing in the diaper bag! 

Some other features:

We recently received our first animal necklace from her shop. I could not be more impressed by the quality in her product. 

I was surprised and excited to see that the clasp is magnetic and completely safe for the littles. Of course she thought of it all.
