Arm & Hammer Washing Soda, not Baking Soda Review
Arm & Hammer Washing Soda, not Baking Soda Review
A great household cleaner is Washing Soda. Even though it is mostly known as a laundry booster, it can also be used for a variety of household chores.
I add this to my floor mopping liquid, use it as a laundry booster, and make a diy powder detergent with it. It works a lot like baking soda, only you can’t eat it and it’s more or less soap.
Here’s a link on 39 the uses there is for Washing Soda,…

Aveeno Baby Daily Moisturizing Lotion with Natural Colloidal Oatmeal Review
Aveeno Baby Daily Moisturizing Lotion with Natural Colloidal Oatmeal Review
Since Edmund started crawling, I noticed that the rug and wood floors sort of irritate his skin causing some minor baby eczema patches. The Aveeno Baby Daily Moisturizing Lotion with Natural Colloidal Oatmeal is a perfect moisturizer out of the bath. It’s unscented, not too creamy, and it helps eases the eczema. I even used it on myself in some spots and it’s helped clear my eczema as well.…

Fisher Price Silly Safari Swirlin' Surprise Elephant Review
Fisher Price Silly Safari Swirlin’ Surprise Elephant Review
I know that putting toys where they go is sort of a developmental leap. So we bought the Fisher Price Silly Safari Swirlin’ Surprise Elephant for Edmund to learn to this. He got the hang of it so quickly! I loved how he mastered this developmental leap at 7 months. Just a pointer, my husband had to adjust and sand down bits so that the balls don’t get stuck on the ramps, I don’t believe my aunt…

Olay All Day Moisturizer Review
Olay All Day Moisturizer Review
For a daytime lotion I use Olay All Day Moisturizer with SPF 15. I found this lotion quite hydrating for my skin during pregnancy.It’s a lightweight lotion with sunscreen protection, which is recommended by dermatologists to wear at least SPF 15 daily.
I love this product because it’s fairly cheap and the “unscented” kind doesn’t have a plastic smell to it like most unscented things tend to do.…

Cetaphil Baby Eczema Calming Wash Review
Cetaphil Baby Eczema Calming Wash Review
A really cool friend of mine works at a gerber/cetaphil distributing company and I was able to buy a lot of stuff for a huge discount. One thing she let me try was the Cetaphil Baby Eczema Calming Wash. I’m usually skeptical about products actually doing what hey say they’ll do, but I actually think this product works quite well.
Edmund doesn’t have crazy bad baby Eczema, but when he’s in new…

Cetaphil Rich Hydrating Night Cream Review
Cetaphil Rich Hydrating Night Cream Review
This is BY FAR my favorite stuff. I had been out for a few months and did ok, until winter came haha. Plus we also moved from Texas to New Jersey.
Breastfeeding took a toll on my skin. My skin became extremely dry, flakey and I felt so ugly! Hydrating didn’t do much alone. What helped along side hydrating was Cetaphil Rich Hydrating Night Cream. It has hyaluronic acid, which really helps to…

Fisher-Price Brilliant Basics Rock-a-Stack Stacking Toy Review
Fisher-Price Brilliant Basics Rock-a-Stack Stacking Toy Review
We just love stackable toys. They encourage thinking and are fun for babies to chew on! For now Edmund does not fully understand the concept of putting them in the exact order, but he does know how to put the rings on. This is a great developmental leap for him and this is a great toy for crawling infants to learn to achieve this leap. It’s very cheap and can be bought virtually everywhere. I’d…

Honest Wet Mopping Pads Review
Honest Wet Mopping Pads Review
My husband really wanted to buy a Swiffer but I wasn’t too happy about the chemicals in the mopping pads. I let him have his way for a little while, but he only cleaned the guest bathroom/cat bathroom with it. That is, until I discovered Honest Wet Mopping Pads. I’m not too crazy on the scent they have for these or the fact that they’re made in China, but I like how it’s derived from natural…

Fisher Price Laugh and Learn Around the Town Learning Table Review
Fisher Price Laugh and Learn Around the Town Learning Table Review
I’ve felt really guilty recently about being on my phone so much that I started to think about what developmental leaps I could be teaching or helping Edmund with. I thought about what my cousin had or did about Edmunds age and I remembered a play table she had that I liked. So I bought Edmund one. The Fisher Price Laugh and Learn Around the Town Learning Table is fun and has lots of different…

Honest Dish Soap in White Grapefruit Scent Review
Honest Dish Soap in White Grapefruit Scent Review
I adore Honest Dish Soap in White Grapefruit Scent. It receives a rating of “A” on ewg.org for healthy cleaning which is a thumbs up in my book! Cleaning products rated on ewg.org can receive anything from an A to an F and like in school, you really want an A. The White Grapefruit smells super lovely and I love the way my sons dishes squeak with cleanliness afterwards. It really leaves dishes…

Vodka Isn't Just for Drinkin'!
Vodka Isn’t Just for Drinkin’!
That’s right! You heard me! Vodka is a great household cleaning product. It has so many unknown uses. For instance, it’s a natural deodorizer. So you know how you’re not supposed to wash jeans that much, but they have that outdoor stench? What you do is hang it up and spray some vodka on it and the smell will evaporate along with the alcohol. I also use this to deodorize my furniture. Just make…

Vaseline 100% White Petroleum Review
Vaseline 100% White Petroleum Review
I know there is a lot of taboo about using plain petroleum jelly, but you can deny the efficiency of it. I loved our other products that we use for Edmund’s eczema, but sometimes, you just need to switch things around a bit. So I chose to use good old 100% Vaseline 100% White Petroleum Jelly, especially when he bled, this made a great protective barrier to aid in healing. It stayed on well and…

Bella Ceramic Electric Water Kettle Review
Bella Ceramic Electric Water Kettle Review
We use our Bella Electric Water Kettle DAILY. If you don’t have one of these yet, you need to get one. We are a biracial family with Vietnamese and English heritages. And no, my husband is DIRECTLY from England with an accent and all. Not the whole, “oh yeah I have Irish blood in me” junk, the real deal!! I’m not disrespecting your heritage by any means, I’m Vietnamese but I’ve never been there…
