Disclosure: A gift card was received to purchase cards, no other compensation was received. All opinions are my own.

I love making holiday cards, it’s so fun to just add your personal touches and photos. I always do picture cards, since my family is so far away. They enjoy getting to see all the pictures and the kids always bring the cards to life.

HP and Walmart have teamed up to offer a variety of different photo gifts that can be ordered and picked up in store or shipped.
Our favorite thing about the items are most of them have characters you can feature. We made a photo book featuring cars, read about it here.

My kids wanted to do a Spongebob holiday card, since we really only put their pic on the card. I agreed.
This was the card and picture they choose.

I also made my son a HP birthday card since his Birthday is in December. He loved it as Cars is his favorite.

WE celebrated my sons 6th birthday this weekend, and it was s much fun. My son loves Disney’s Cars and Planes. The past 5 years we have always done a Cars theme, so this year we did Disney’s Planes.

I found Birthday In A Box, which comes with everything you need to throw a birthday party for your child. They have every character or theme you can think of.

The party set serves 8 people and features:

  • 16 Planes Napkins
  • 8 Planes cake plates
  • 8 Planes 9 oz cups
  • 1 Planes table cover
  • 1 set candles
  • 2 sets streamers
  • 8 forks/spoons/knives

Everything coordinated so well, and it looked great. We received orange and blue streamers which we hung around the house and matching Planes table cover and plates napkins cups etc.

The table cover looks like a runway, that was my sons favorite. He would use it as a runway for his toys. He would pretend they were on the Wings Around The Globe Race.

The plates and cups were small but perfect for small hands. I just can’t get over how well everything goes together, it was the cutest thing.

It’s Going To Be A Monster High Christmas

- brandy3 1 Comment

My kids have made their wish lists for Christmas this year. At the top of their list is of course Monster High, the popular new doll by Mattel. Both my daughters love them, and even my son has taken to playing with his sisters as long as it’s a boy doll. LOL!

The problem is that…… Well you will know if you have a Monster High fan in your house. They are really hard to find (the new ones). If you can’t find them in store, you can find them on Ebay or Amazon for hundreds of dollars over their retail price. It’s just ridiculous.

They are on the hunt for the new Hauntlywood dolls and of course the soon to be released Sloman Slo’ Mo.

It’s only going to get worse as more dolls will be released and become scarce.

Graco Little Lounger #Graco15ForMe #SP

- brandy3

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post on behalf Of Graco and Global Influence.

I was invited to a Graco Little Lounger event in my local area to demo the product. I was unable to attend but was able to see it in action at a friends house.

Unknown

The Graco Little Lounger is two products in one: a rocking seat and a vibrating lounger. In rocking seat mode, calm baby with the gentle back and forth motion of the rocking seat. Then, flip down the Rock Locks and the seat becomes a vibrating lounger with 2-speed vibration. The ingenious seat has multiple recline positions, so that it’s easy to find just the right position for baby’s comfort. When you’re not using it, Little Lounger folds compactly to store or travel, and a cute toy bar will keep baby occupied.

Some features:

  • 2-1 rocking seat-vibrating lounger
  • Rock Locks: Transform the rocker into a stationary vibrating lounger.
  • Multi-position recline makes it easy to keep baby comfortable.
  • Toy bar with two soft toys, keeps baby entertained.
  • 3 point baby harness, keeps your baby secure.

 

It gives mom’s those extra 15 minutes to relax or prep dinner. I wish this was around when my kids were younger, It would have been a life saver for me. My daughter never left my side when she was young. My husband was overseas and I had a baby carrier permanently attached to me.
The extra 15 minutes would have let me enjoy a bath or cook hot meal, that didn’t come out of the microwave.

What I love about this seat is that is has so many functions, and can adjust in so many ways to make your baby happy. the seat can lay back for when baby sleeps, or positioned up so baby can see what is going on and for those babies with acid reflux. There are 2 different vibration setting to sooth baby. My favorite part would be how easy it is to close up and take along. Perfect for any long trip or just to take on vacation. Can easily fit in your trunk of your car.

Graco Little Lounger is available at retailers nationwide for $79.99, depending on what pattern you want.
Caraway Fashion is exclusive to Babies R Us.
Astoria Fashion is exclusive to BuyBuy Baby.
Dakota and Elm Fashions are exclusive to Target.
