Pregnant, Breastfeeding or Trying to Conceive, You’ll Want To Try the nourished babe App-Giveaway

February 8, 2018 by Kathryn Leave a Comment

Being pregnant again after so many years since my last baby was an interesting experience. Having “been there, done that” before, I had a pretty good idea of how I wanted pregnancy to go. I took my prenatal vitamin, along with an Omega-3 supplement, religiously. I indulged in prenatal massages. I tried my best to stay flexible with light yoga a few times a week.

But with two older boys in the house, a husband with an inconsistent schedule and the inevitable cravings of pregnancy, I had a surprisingly hard time making sure I was eating a healthy diet! Unlike my other two pregnancies, I had intense sugar cravings when carrying Cormac. And heartburn often had me skipping meals as well. [Read more…]

Add Affordable New Looks to Your Wardrobe with Top Tier Style

October 26, 2017 by Kathryn Leave a Comment

Fall is one of my favourite times to try new fashions. While shorts and sundresses are fun too, the cooler temperatures actually add a bit more versatility to my wardrobe. But with back-to-school expenses and extra-curricular activities to pay for, I don’t want to spend a fortune on clothing either!

That’s where Top Tier Style comes in. The company offers trendy fashions at great prices so I can update my look affordably. This year, Top Tier Style offered to send me a dress and a pair of sunglasses to review. I knew at once that the Strap V-Neck Split Beach Summer Dress and the Black Lens Vintage Steampunk Sunglasses would be the perfect new additions to my wardrobe. [Read more…]

May 25, 2017 by Kathryn 27 Comments

Is there anything better than a bite of creamy, dreamy, melt-in-your-mouth milk chocolate? I don’t think so, and when I decide to indulge in a treat, chocolate is usually my first choice. So, when I find a new way to enjoy my favourite flavour, I can’t wait to dig in.

And this summer, there’s a perfect way to do that…new Hershey’s Chocolate Pudding cups! Recently I received some of this decadent refrigerated chocolate pudding to test out for myself and I couldn’t wait to try it.

Discover the New ATTITUDE Sensitive Skin Care Collection at Special Low Prices Right Now-Giveaway

February 8, 2017 by Kathryn 166 Comments

I’ve always been a big fan of natural products in the house, whether I’m looking for safe and effective cleaning products or bath and body care for my boys. So, when I discovered ATTITUDE last year, I fell in love. The company’s philosophy is simple: parents deserve high-quality products with worry-free ingredients for their families. I’m especially fond of the company’s sun care collection since I don’t care for commercial sunscreen. The mineral-based sun care did a great job of protecting my boys on our Caribbean cruise last year!

But for infants or children that have sensitive skin, even ATTITUDE’s worry-free ingredient lineup may not be enough. Which is why the company has introduced its brand-new ATTITUDE Sensitive Skin Care collection! Boasting products both for babies and families, this new line has been tested in an independent laboratory and received EWG verification and the National Eczema Association seal of acceptance. The addition of up to 3% colloidal oatmeal in the products helps soothe and protect the sensitive skin of babies, children and adults! [Read more…]

The De’Longhi Coffee, Espresso and Cappuccino Combination Machine is One Machine that Does it All-Giveaway

December 17, 2016 by Kathryn 179 Comments

One of the very few downsides of loving coffee as much as I do is that I tend to have way too many different devices for brewing that perfect cup. From single-serve machines to drip brewers and everything in between, my love of fancy coffee drinks means I’m either constantly moving different brewers in and out of my cupboard or I’m losing all my counter space to multiple appliances.

But just in time for holiday entertaining, De’Longhi has come to my rescue with a brand-new solution that lets me brew all my favourite drinks with one space-saving device! The De’Longhi BCO330T Combination Machine is a combination drip brewer and espresso/cappuccino machine that lets me choose between brewing a pot of coffee, whipping up a restaurant-worthy gourmet beverage or both, any time I like!

The Peas & Love collection is one of my personal favourites at Bunnies By The Bay, and this quilt is a great example of why. The colours are perfectly suited for both boys and girls, and the adorable bunnies and vegetables that adorn each piece add subtle brightness to a nursery. But as much as little ones will love looking at the designs on this blanket, they’ll love cuddling up with it even more! The soft velour and plush faux fur make it so warm and snuggly that parents may just wish they could borrow it too! [Read more…]

November 1, 2016 by Kathryn 129 Comments

This past summer, I had the chance to travel to sunny Los Angeles with eOne Films and attend an exclusive premiere of the hit comedy Bad Moms. The movie hit all the right notes in showing off the fun, frustration and outright hilarity of being a mom, and I laughed to tears more than once as I watched.

October 18, 2016 by Kathryn 70 Comments

If there’s one thing that almost every one of my friends and family members know about me, it’s that I love to read. And because of that, I’m a big believer in the importance of literacy. I’ve been reading to my boys every night since they were babies and both of them love to read on their own as well. That’s why I love the concept behind Marmalade Books.

This brand new Canadian-based company offers a monthly subscription box of age-appropriate books chosen for their quality and entertainment value to help build a generation of readers. Available in customized boxes for three different reading levels, there’s a Marmalade Books box for kids of all ages!
