Sophie Bag Review

  Most of you know I am a mom of 4. My last little bundle was a girl so of course I had no girlie things. In the process of looking for a diaper bag (why is there so many choices I will never understand), I wasn't sure if I wanted the traditional bag, the shoulder bag or the back pack style of bag. What I did know is that I wanted something that was going to hold her items and possibly a change of clothes for my 4 year old (you never know what he gets into). Let me introduce you to the Sophie Bag. This bag is going to be the last diaper bag you buy. It is equipped with the traditional bag, the shoulder bag and the back pack bag, plus more.

Gift Guide: Organic Aromas

With living in Ohio sickness seems to enter the home in the Fall and doesn't leave until Spring when we can open the windows and get outside. This drives me crazy to say the least especially with having a baby in the home that is more prone to getting sick. With having kids in school and Mr Anderson working in a big office things seem to travel in with everyone. I do a lot of natural cleaners in my home and love them and have been wanting to start using more essential oils in my home. I love the idea of using the natural products to keep everyone healthy in the home. I know how well they work with cleaning as I have been able to keep a house full of people from getting strep several times by cleaning with essential oil mixes.

Gift Guide: Core Home Manna Growler

During the fall Bubba was running cross country so I was always filling up water bottles for him to take to practice and meets. The problem was his water was not staying cold long enough for him. When I received the Core Home Manna Growler Bubba instantly claimed it for his meets. I happily let him take it because he not only had cold water but he could share with his team mates who ran out of water.
