My Review
We got a chance to review the Cach Cach Precious Black Hat w/hot Pink Flower.
Adisyn loves this hat. She wears it everywhere. I love the way that it will fit an infant as well as a toddler. We tried it on the neighbor baby, (6 months) and it fit her as well.
The design is very adorable. It is strong, not shedding or coming lose. The flower is attached very well, not falling down or falling off.
We were shopping on Saturday for Adisyn’s Birthday, and we were asked a million times about where we got it. It is an attention getter. People notice a girl in a hat, it is so cute.
When Adisyn seen me open the package she ran over and said “Oh, pretty.” She immediately wanted it on. This is a child that DOES not like hats, bows, or hair ties. I was extremely surprised, but at the same time GLAD.
She cut her hair horribly short one day while I was washing dishes, and there wasn’t a way to fix it. She wouldn’t keep headbands or clips in very long. She was taking them off and throwing them on the floor.
I was lost for words until we got the hat. Now I can just slip it on her head when we go out, and nobody notices that she has the shortest hair EVER in the front. Thank you Little Fashion’s Boutique. =) Now her Birthday pictures aren’t going to be terrifying.
This shop has some of the cutest outfits I’ve seen all year. I definitely want to add some of these to Adisyn’s wardrobe.
I really like that stuff is so easy to find. Usually I search a website, and then Adam gets on the computer and X’s it out. Then I can never find the same item again. Here you can search by size, Brand, or whatever your specifically looking for (dresses, shoes, accessories…)
They have some beautiful Valentine’s Clothes. Such a great selection for all ages. They have brightly colored dresses if that is what you’re looking for, or they have lighter more feminine colors (like the one on the bottom right)
They just got a new shipment of 2012 Spring Arrival of Clothes, and they are all so adorable. From Babies to tweens- dress them all. These designs are so awesome. I wish I had all of these. They are all beautifully made, with the highest quality.
I also really like their selection of hair bows. Very wide selection of styles and colors. Would definitely find something for every outfit or child your looking for.

Zoobies Animal + Blanket
Disclosure: This product was provided for review purposes only, all opinions are honest.
About:
Zoobies, LLC was created by two young brothers who shared a common desire to invent something that was fun, innovative, and functional. The brothers came from a large family of nine children. They saw the need to consolidate things needed on trips, something that would make a mom’s life easier. Zoobies have been featured on The View as well as the Today Show.
My Review*
My 3 year old daughter goes Banana’s for any kind of stuffed animal. She will play with them day and night if you let her. She packs them around, covers them up, puts them to sleep. Acts like they’re crying.. the whole nine yards.
We were lucky enough to review a Blanket Pet. I chose to get Furbie the Feline because Adisyn loves Cats. It was extremely hard for me to choose though, because they had so many different animals.
When she seen me opening the Zoobies Pal, I thought she just might have a heart attack. I mean, how many stuffed animals come with their OWN blanket? Not many. She was in play pal heaven. She played with it until she fell asleep with it under her arm.
I was also in heaven, because the company most definitely had mom’s in mind when they were designing them. Less clutter comes with having a Zoobies Pal. A pillow, Blanket, and Pet all in one. The blanket is HUGE. I seriously didn’t think the blanket was that big. I thought it was going to be a small baby type of blanket for them to play with the animal.
I am seriously impressed with the blanket sizing. I loved how big it was. She can use it as her blanket, or put tons of her “babies” under them. It is VERY soft, made with polyester fleece. The blanket is big enough for a toddler to crawl under and sleep with. The blanket zips off the animal and is easy to do so. It is machine washable and dryable.
Not only does this blanket provide comfort and warmth to your little one, it also provides security. They feel safe wrapped in their own blanket at night, and drift off to sleep with their blanket and pet that are as soft as the clouds they dream of.
The pets are extremely soft and huggable. They are adorable. I love how Furbie the Feline came with a collar that has the Zoobie emblem on it. Adisyn
This is a great item for birthday’s, Christmas, or just a thank you for being good. This is an essential item for taking long trips, sleep overs, or just having something awesome to play with. It is only $35, and your getting a full size blanket, and the animal that also doubles as a pillow.
The head of the animal is stuffed with microbeads, so it moves around and is squishy to the touch. You can wash the animal also. It is preferred that you spot wash it with a warm washcloth, but you can also machine wash it in a delicate bag if needed.
In addition to Blanket Pets™, Zoobies® also has a wide selection of other high quality products such as Slumber Pets™, Blankie Babies™ and Storytime Pals™.
20% off any Zoobie product on www.zoobies.com with the coupon code "Parenthood".
Thanks, Jess

Lovable Labels Review & Giveaway #BdayBonanza
I have a label fetish, I admit it. If I could manage it, everything in my house would be labeled. I think it is such a great organizing solution, while keeping kids from fighting and me from losing stuff.
Most schools today ask that everything that is brought with kids to school be labeled with their names to avoid confusion and mix-ups. Whether it be jackets, backpacks, binders, lunch boxes, or notebooks.
If we lived in the olden days, we mom’s would have the problem of hand sewing all the names into clothing.. What a hassle that would be. We already have to get the kids to school fully clothed with no mismatching sock and shoes, with a backpack on, homework done, and lunch to eat.. Who has time to hand sew labels? Not me.
And not a lot of other people do, either.. That’s why lovable labels has become to go to site for labeling.. They have press and stick clothing dots that are washer, dryer, and bleach safe that come with 12 designs and 45 icons to choose from. They have iron on labels, shoe labels, and zipper tags.
They carry safety tags that let the kid’s medical history and vitals be known to others. This is in case they become lost or have an allergic reaction. This could be vital for your child’s life, should they need attention. These let you list your phone number, the kids’ name, and doctor.
They carry address labels, personalized books, Connect with me cards, and sweet notes to put in your kids’ lunch. These aren’t just regular labels and cards, you get a choice. They let you choose between 14 different designs, so you are getting what you want. The Connect with Me cards are a good thing to have on hand everyday. It let’s old friends, new friends, and your kids’ friends parents know how to contact you.
They also have tons of really cool labels for the home. Home office labels for your files and folders, Crafty Mom Labels, so you know where your yarn and scrapbooking supplies are, Pantry Labels, Wire labels, Spice labels, and more.
I received the Friendship pack of labels, which was awesome. I got the full pack for Aidan because he was in school. It came with 120 stickers. 30 Sticker Labels, 80 Slimline Labels, and 10 Fun Stickies.
These are off of the website, but you can see them much more clear than the pictures I took.
And my daughter Adisyn got the free pack with Aidan’s. Again the picture below is off of the website. I like for you to see the product closely. I would have scanned mine, but my printer has been on the fritz for awhile now.
I really liked these labels. They have enough stick on them to stick perfectly without peeling, yet not enough sticky that you think you may never get it off your fingertips, let alone on SOMETHING. They were just right. They went on without a hassle, and are adorable.
My kids loved the labels. Adisyn kept trying to get in them because she wanted to use them as “stickers” and “tattoo's” for her.
We got to choose from the icons below. So we got the football for Aidan and the butterfly for Adisyn. So these aren’t gender bias or age bias, you can find an icon for any age. Even if they are older, or you want to buy some for yourself, you can choose to get “no icon.”
With the Friendship pack, you can now get 40 free slimline stickers for a friend/relative when you purchase yours. You have to have their contact information on hand, and you can’t get money in exchange for the pack. It is only going on until the 28th.. SO you better get yours while you still can.
Disclosure: This is not a sponsored post. I didn’t receive compensation for writing this. I did receive products in exchange for an honest review.
Spend some time getting to know Lovable Labels by visiting their web-site, facebook and follow them on twitter. & you can call them to order.. 1-866-328-LOVE (5683).
Giveaway: The Giveaway will be part of Adisyn’s #Bday Bonanza

Natural House Review & Giveaway #BdayBonanza
About: The Natural House Cleaners use an eco-friendly probiotics cleaning method. This creates a beneficial, odor eating ecosystem to digest odors and to naturally drive them OUT from their source. They contain plant based ingredients so they are non-toxic, biodegradable, as well as better for the environment. Sinky and Flushy even break down and digest fats, grease, oil, and solid waste. This is ensuring you that your pipes, drains, and septic are running smoothing at all times without back-ups and clogs.
The cleaners continue to clean and consume grease, grime, germs, fat ,and oil until the next weekly treatment. You heard right- WEEKLY. Not daily cleaning of the toilet, sink, and trash. I mean, we have enough to do, right? No hard work, no sweat, tears, or hard to use tools. So easy and actually fun to use that Natural House earned the Retailer’s Choice Award at the 2011 National Hardware Show!
How:
So how exactly does probiotic household cleaners work?
- The surfaces in your house are like a garden. If you don’t seed with good plants, weeds will grow. You have the same choice with your household surfaces: sanitize for a moment with harsh chemicals leaving your surface open to recontamination or seed with probiotics to continuously weed out the bad micro-organisms.
- Traditional cleaners “clean” a surface for a moment in time; the second the rag is finished wiping the surface, that surface is almost instantly polluted once again with ambient dust, dirt, and micro-organisms.
- Natural House probiotics creates mini-ecosystem on a microbial level that produces enzymes which break down odors, dirt, fats, oil, grease, food scraps, waste and toilet paper products on a continuous basis between applications. This creates a natural, clean, balanced environment that is safe for even the most sensitive members of your natural house.
- The action is in the foam! When using your Natural House products be sure and let it foam first to release the cleaning agents before going to the next step on the package directions.
My Review
It’s sad to say on my part, but I have never used a “green” product to clean my house, other than dishwashing liquid. I always thought that unless you could smell the “chemicals”, it wasn’t clean enough. Oh boy, was I wrong. Not only was I hurting the environment by using the chemically induced cleaners, but natural products work even BETTER than I thought they might.
I was drawn to these products because of their names. I love the names Sinky, Trashy, and Flushy. They are just so catchy and “different” in a cleaning product. Wouldn’t you just love to leave this out in the open for people to see? What would they think or say? I can’t think about it without laughing. How could they have names like that and NOT be fun to use?
Flushy
The first product I used from the Natural House: Probiotic Cleaning Solutions line was Flushy. I wouldn’t have thought that a natural cleaner could do all the things that Flushy does. I always thought it needed chlorine to pass the “clean” test. I admit I was
You just drop it in and watch it foam, wait 5-10 seconds, and then scrub with a toilet brush. It helps to work on hard water stains and mineral deposits on and in the bowl.
It isn’t just a toilet bowl cleaner though, it is also a septic and drain cleaner. So your getting more than 1 product actually. The probiotics travel through your pipes and dissolve anything that may be clogging or stopping it up. It takes out
I had never even actually heard of a product that does THIS. I have heard of products that help AFTER you already have clogs and a stopped up septic system, but never anything to PREVENT it. Now I have. I’m not sure how I lived without it.
Now I am
Trashy
I am IMPRESSED to the fullest with Trashy. I have never had cleaning a trash can be so easy in my life. I used to take it in the bathroom, fill it up with hot water drop in some dishwashing liquid and scrub. Then dump the dirty water into the toilet, and then rinse and repeat. I hated this. Not only was cleaning the trash a hassle, but it SMELLED horribly. I had tried everything under the sun to try and rid the trash smells, and Notta- nothing. No results. I ended up buying a new trash can every year.
I have had some garbage bags leak and leave a mess in the trash. Let me tell you- it wasn’t such a pleasant site (or smell). I have to admit that when I am washing dishes I scrape the leftovers in the trash. Old food in the bottom of the trash can never be a good thing, right? Right. So when I used Flushy, I was immediately in LOVE.
I was seriously EXCITED to find something that not only took the smell away but made it easier on me to clean. What mom, wife, woman could argue with that? Just because cleaning NEEDS to be done, doesn’t mean I jump for joy when I have to do it. I already have 2 tornados as children who love to make messes for me to pick up.
All you do is spray Trashy in the sides and on the bottom of your trashcan and let it air dry before adding another garbage bag. Who knew cleaning could be so easy?
Sinky
This is also a “pillow” type little packet that you drop in the drain. You turn the hot water on for 5-10 seconds and watch it dissolve. Pretty cool way to wash all those oils, grease, and germs down without worrying about it. I haven’t had problems of back-ups, but with the rate that we drain hamburger meat and such- it was bound to become a problem at some point.
Sinky takes the old food and grease smell away immediately. All you smell is freshness and CLEAN. A sink? Yes. A clean smelling sink, without using bleach or other harsh products. I didn’t think it was possible. I also didn’t think it was possible that I would REMEMBER to put the packet in WEEKLY without writing a reminder to myself. Promise not to laugh, giggle, or choke a little on your spit? I found myself trying to put Sinky in before the week was over.
Was it because I liked watching them foam and dissolve? Was it that I KNEW my drain was clean? Was it because it was easy peasy and smelled AWESOME?
Find out for yourself.
Natural House wants to give 1 Made.By.Jess reader their own 30 day supply of ALL. Yes ALL. Flushy, Trashy, and Sinky. Wow.
So, on behalf of my daughter turning 3- and knowing that I have to plan a party, buy presents, write invitations, and get her something she doesn’t already have—as well as being around TONS of screaming, squealing kids> I give you Natural House. Keep your house clean without spending tons of time and hard work doing so, so you can have more time to yourself and your family. =)
