Learning Resources Buggy Balance Activity Kit Review
The girls have been back in school for about a month and they are loving it – although, at their new school, they do get more homework than before and that involves more time from all of us as the girls learn their new lessons and as their dad and I navigate helping them. In Miss LadyBug’s class, they have done a few lessons on weights focusing on heavier than, lighter than and equal to – so when we received the Buggy Balance Measurement Activity Kit from Learning Resources for review, the timing could not have been better!

Portable Bluetooth Speaker from Havit Brings Big Sound Anywhere
As the girls get older, they are definitely coming into their own when it comes to pretty much everything, especially music! They like to listen to their music when they are cleaning their rooms or just playing and I would prefer that they not use headphones or earbuds quite yet since they tend to turn up the sound. Wireless, Bluetooth speakers are a great option for this, especially if you can find one for an affordable price! Well, I found that with Havit! Havit offers different wireless, Bluetooth speaker options and they sent me this great portable, bar speaker in exchange for my honest opinion!
Get Organized on Vacation with Travel Packing Cubes!
We recently returned from an amazing trip to Branson, Missouri where we spent five days exploring the beaches, mountains, caves, waterparks, amusement parks, wineries and more! With such a vast array of events, we needed to bring a lot of different types of clothes and a lot of toiletries and accessories! Three girls in the house means that we have a lot of stuff and little space to pack it in – so when we received the Evatex Travel Packing Cubes for review, I knew we had a winner!
What did I think?
The Evatex Travel Packing Cubes come in four sizes and also come with a bonus shoe bag! These packing cubes fit nicely into one another (like nesting dolls!) for storage, and also stack well with on another when full. These packing cubes are sturdy, well-made and hold a ton! What I liked was that I could assign each person in the house, a packing cube based on their needs for toiletries. Of course, I had the biggest and was able to easily fit in my hair dryer, flat iron, makeup bag, shampoo, conditioner, toothbrush, toothpaste, lotions, face wash and a few other random items. Hubby received the next size and packed it full with this toiletries including his electric razor, body wash and some of his running accessories and then the girls received the last two sizes – one they filled with their bath products, hair things and lotions and the smallest one, they filled with their Littlest Pet Shop toys for ease of travel.
Mineral Eye Gel from Adovia Eliminates Puffy Under Eye Bags
I am finding that with being 30 for almost a year, the later nights are taking more and more of a toll on my face! Seriously, before I could stay up until midnight without an issue, but now if I do, I can expect bags under my eyes all day long! That is, until I started using Adovia mineral eye gel! This easy to use mineral eye gel features Dead Sea Minerals, Vitamin E and Aloe Vera to help soothe and condition my most delicate skin. I received the Adovia mineral eye gel in exchange for my honest opinion.
What did I think?
I have used many Adovia mineral products and have loved them as they feature many wonderful and natural ingredients. While the mineral eye gel does feature a lot of the same wonderful Dead Sea minerals and other fabulous natural ingredients (I love Jojoba and Sweet Almond!), there are a few ingredients that are on my “caution” list, so I recommend that you definitely always check labels and decide what you are comfortable with!
Mineral Based Serum from Adovia that will Lift and Firm Skin
Getting old – what a concept right? We finally get to the point in our lives where we are ready to really put ourselves out there and things start going South – literally! I recently noticed that my neck skin has been hanging slightly looser than usual, so I wanted to find a mineral-based beauty product that could give my skin a lift! I received the Adovia Mineral Lift Serum in exchange for my honest opinion.
