REVIEW: Little Looster

Asa (#3) just turned two.

You know what that means-

he's taking off his diaper and pooing on the floor.

(What?! you're 2 year old doesn't do that?? hmmm. weird.)

So, I guess whether I'm ready or not:

Potty Training-

Here We Come!

This kid is stubborn.

 And he can't talk yet, which makes things more difficult.

 (I guess he figures his siblings who are never quiet will communicate for him forever.)

So when I found this awesome step called the Little Looster, I knew he'd be intrigued and I had to have it.

When it arrived, my 4 year old daughter immediately ran it to the toilet and tried it out. She LOVES IT. and I didn't get it for her...

My 5 year old son uses it too.

(though I kind of wish he wouldn't for #1 [splash factor]-if you know what I'm saying...)

It is made to stay in front of the toilet so you don't have to move it. I leave it, but it does require a little skill, it isn't ideal-but it's worth it not to have to touch it. ha.

My husband moves it, but just because he didn't get the memo that there are places he could stick his feet. Maybe he doesn't anymore...

I don't know- I'll have to spy later...

jk.

This "Little Looster Booster" (as we like to call it), is very sturdy and it really does help the kids.

They actually do feel a bit more steady and confident.

I feel better about Asa not falling in too.

(because if it could happen to anyone, it would be him)

He looks like a pro,

Check him out:

Don't be fooled-we've got a long road ahead of us, but I'm confident this awesome step will help.

GIVEAWAY & REVIEW: Hawaii Medical GumDrop Pacifier Bundle [CLOSED]

I have had four babies, which means I've tried lots of pacifiers. ;)

My #3 was the pickiest by far.

He loved the Soothie which they gave me at the hospital, but I had ONE PACIFIER.

I asked all of my friends if they had any old Soothies to donate to the cause,

b/c I couldn't find them anywhere.

(It was before they started selling them in stores)

Then, I got online and found a Hawaii Medical GumDrop Pacifier.

Exactly what I needed but better!

Check it out:

I've also lost a lot of pacifiers, in their bundle they offer a cheeper keeper clip-which does it's job.

Practical and simple, I'm not going to argue about that ;)

Also in the bundle is a CuddleSquare, which I really like.

It helps by comforting the baby

(I put it on the side of their faces while they are sucking on the pacifier and it calms them right down...weird)

and it makes the pacifier easy to find-Bonus.:)

Fun Fact: GumDrops sold in stores are not the ones used in hospitals these are the originals. Only distributed by Sandbox Baby.

They are also just about to launch a new personalized pacifier clip coming out this month.

I just love how you can still see her little nose with the same benefits of the Soothie.

She loves her GumDrop and CuddleSquare!

These three products make my life better and easier, by having a way to soothe my baby and having a way to keep it close at all times :)

REVIEW: Pediped Shoes

I do not put shoes on my babies. I think its pointless and kinda dumb. I get tired of carrying around the weight of my chubby babies, so the less I can pile on them the better. No extra fluff here please. thank you.

However, when they are starting to stand and take steps, I feel its necessary. (though i here there is a barefoot movement going on...)

The rubber soles don't cut it for me. The heels? forget it.

So on a hunt I went...

I tried several versions of soft soled shoes, but my think babies have thick feet!! Nothing seemed to work.

Until I was introduced to Pedipeds!

They fit fat feet. (say that fast-its fun)

They dont add extra weight to an already heavy baby.

They are durable!

They are made of quality materials.

And they are freaking adorable!

If I were a collector w/ a collection shelf, it wouldn't be full of pointless trinkets, it'd be full of cute AND useful pedipeds!

This were my first loves. I bought them for my daughters 1st Birthday and never looked back. I bought several used pairs on eBay. and they were the staples until she no longer could fit into the soft-soled sizes.

Then, for my third baby, I bought a few pairs of these (some in brown too)

And he wore them until his foot was too big for soft soled.

I look forward to shopping for new ones for my new baby girl :)

I've never tried the Flex kind for bigger kids, but I can tell you for sure that I LOVE these bad boys.

And hopefully someday I can get my bigger kids into some of those Flex shoes, they are super stylish too.

They make it possible to put a shoe on a fat foot and it is hard for babies to kick off, so they stay on! Making my life easier and both mine and my child's like better.

They are also super comfortable from what I can tell.

BUSY MOMMY LIKES!
