Review & Giveaway - ReUsies

Congrats to @punkinmama !!

When I received my 2 samples of ReUsies ALL kinds of ideas ran through my head!! It's a mini pouch that is 100% cotton lined with leak-resistant nylon and are secured with Velcro® closures. It takes place of plastic sandwich/snack bags and is not only environmentally friendly, but it's just a trendy looking bag!! I thought, snacks, Legos® , crayons, first aid baggie, the possibilities are endless!!

Little J loves the smaller snacksize packet has been dedicated it to a few Lego's® for when we go out to eat, or for in the car. The larger ReUsies packet has been used for snacks, snack packs, and even juice packs! This has saved us from using plastic throw away snack bags for weeks now, and I love that they're easy to clean and look quite snazzy too!!

Review & Giveaway - MolliCoolz Shakers

Congrats to Julie@momspective!!

This giveaway is now closed!

When our box of MolliCoolz Shakers arrived at our door on dry ice to review, I'm not sure who was more excited, me or my husband.... or my kids. HA. In THAT order!! We were both excited about a product that was simple to use and offered us the ability to add skim milk or 1% milk to make a "lower fat" milkshake. It's by no means fat free, but we did our best and WOW we loved them!!

MolliCoolz Shakers are so easy to use that even my 3yo got involved in the shakin!! You just pour in your milk, add in any extras that you want and in seconds you have a creamy yummy treat. For vanilla you can add a splash of orange juice to make it like an orange creamsicle shake, you can add chunks of berries or even oreo cookies or candies just like your favorites at places like Sonic or Dairy Queen.

The consistency and texture of the shake is pretty good for something you're making in seconds. It's neat how these little beads of icecream burst in with the milk while shaking and create this smooth and delightful treat. MolliCoolz Shakers come in 4 yummy flavors, Chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry and Cookies n' Cream. HERE is the nutritional information and website direct link for MolliCoolz Shakers.


The kind people over at MolliCoolz are offering one of my readers a free 4 pack of yumminess all for checking out their site and coming back here to comment about why you think MolliCoolz Shakers would be awesome at your house.

Wordless Wednesday - It's a Mystery

Random Tuesday Thoughts - Brown Peter, Goose, and Acne

• My 3 yo is obsessed with his junk, and I hear the word penis at least 100 times per day... no exaggeration.


• We were in the car (whole family) and the oldest kid and the hubs and I started talking about names, and how they appear in the phone book... and how I have ran across some interesting names with the work I do from home. For example, there's a person named Rainey Never (not joking) so I wondered if their parents thought in advance that in the phone book that'll appear "never rainey"???? Then the hubs suggested Peter Brown, and Dick Trickle.... it was on from there.... laughter and chaos.


• Recently bought and watched the Disney movie "Earth" with the family, and we all really dig it. We've watched it 3 x's already. HA.


• My face has the acne of a 12 yo boy for whatever reason right now and I'm not diggin it.


• I still cry when Goose dies on Top Gun. Even though I know he's going to die, when he's going to die, and how sad I'll feel - I still watch the movie. I realize that Goose is a part played by Anthony Edwards, and that Anthony E is just fine.... but dayum-it Goose you break my heart....


• Labor Day was awesome, awesome weather, awesome family time, and awesome food.

• Speaking of Labor Day... wonder how many mommys had babies on the day officially named Labor Day?? Not that it has anything to do with the actual day, but just sayin....

Later random peeps! Go visit Keely and get your random on.

Mostly Wordless Wednesday - There's a skink in my toilet

Yes - that actually is a skink...and our 10 you was a bit shocked to find a critter in his toilet. I will quote him *rushes out of bathroom with pants at ankles* "theres a lizard in my toilet, and I may have pee'd on myself."
