CLOSED! Fun In the Sun Day 8 ~ SwitchFlops Giveaway (3 Winners)

<br /><center><a href="http://mom2mycrazy2.blogspot.com/"><img src="http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s1/aproffitt79/07_beach-4.jpg" /></a></center><br />

Here we go, after you enter here make sure you go over and check out Misadventures in Baby Raising and her amazing giveaways too!

I end this wonderful Fun in the Sun giveaway extravaganza with one of my favorite items … shoes! Oh shoes how I love you, your size doesn’t go up or down. Well this last pregnancy did go up ½ a size but hey I can handle that. Looking for a size 7 ½ is so much better of a size then my pant size. Well enough about that!

I was so excited when Switch Flops let me try a pair. They sent me over the Lulu in brown along with 2 strap to switch to (Brittany & Shawn). Amazing enough my husband is the shoe fanatic in our house, really he’s closet is packed. Which leaves me little space for my shoes, so let me tell you a shoe that allows me to switch it out making it look like more than one shoe and take up little space makes me smile wide. I know who the heck is the girl here?

Switch Flops comes in 3 comfortable soles to choose from with super cute names (Lily, Lulu & Taylor). They seriously are so comfortable and the cutest things I’ve ever tried. Who would have thought that I could love shoes that have the same Velcro I use for my son’s shoes? That is what I call an amazing product, Velcro on the top to make it easy to switch out your strap of the flip flop to match whatever outfit you’re wearing that day! Isn’t that that the smartest thing ever?

So if you are anything like me you put on one top then you try to find the pants you’ll wear for the day. You look everywhere can’t find them so you put on a different pair of course they don’t match the top you’re wearing. So you try on a different top, of course this one fits tight. So you switch it out to a different one, by this time you’re frustrated and sweaty! Remind you of one of your days? Sadly I have this one often while getting ready for work. This also could be the reason I have one pair of dress shoes I go to every day! Yes you know were I’m going here, Switch Flops are so easy to change out to match whatever top and bottom I finally decide on with little effort and no more sweat. Hey my deodorant can handle only so much tugging and pulling. Thank you Switch Flops for giving me one item that causes less frustration!

A little about this amazing company and my new hero who created Switch Flops:

Lindsay Phillips is the energetic inspiration and founding force behind SwitchFlops. Her footwear concept evolved from a high school art project—ceramic flip flops. Amazed by the response, Lindsay began designing functional flops with colorful straps, each adorned by a unique button. Her idea evolved when she realized that by using Velcro she could create one shoe with many straps–unlimited choices with minimal effort. This simple, yet brilliant innovation was the birth of SwitchFlops. Lindsay applied for a patent on her idea before she graduated high school.

WIN IT: THREE lucky readers will receive a pair of Switch Flops of their own! Mandatory go to Switch Flops website and tell me what set you would choose if you won!

I had ok I should say Cole had the opportunity to try out the most amazing Ethan Emb Blue Gingham with Whales. It was the nicest set Cole has ever worn. He just looked so darn adorable in it!

Cole wore this beautiful Bei Bambini to a birthday party this past weekend. Yes I was so proud that he kept it clean almost the whole time! But don't worry it was so easy to clean and came out looking brand new! YEAH I love when clothes can be beautiful and wash just as beautiful. Yes with boys it's the little things in life that make this mom so happy. Yes stick with those little things :).

Look I've learned Italian ... Ok just that Bei Bambini means "Beautiful Children". Doesn't that just melt your heart?

Ok so they might not always be cute themselves but the at least the clothing can be! I know but he's all mine :).

(CLOSED) Fun In the Sun Day 6 ~ Bummis Giveaway (1 Winner)

<br /><center><a href="http://mom2mycrazy2.blogspot.com/"><img src="http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s1/aproffitt79/07_beach-4.jpg" /></a></center><br />

Here we go, after you enter here make sure you go over and check out Misadventures in Baby Raising and her amazing giveaways too!

I had the pleasure to try out the cutest and wonderful diaper cover! I'm in love with Bummis Diaper Covers. Caden just thought he was to cool running around the lake front in his Bummis. He was the hit of the party everyone kept coming up and looking at his bum. He would just turn around give them a funny look and say "MINE". It was too flippin cute!

Talk about durable, yes that is Caden below playing in the sand box! It was so easy I just popped them in the wash (yes I wash every night, don't you) and out them came looking new!

Even if you don't use cloth diapers the Bummis Diaper Covers are perfect to cover diapers. So much easier and hello cost effective to use a Bummis Diaper Covers instead of those swimmer things. And you know this girl price first and of course Environment also. I love when those two worlds can come together :).

Some amazing things that I loved about Bummis I just had to share:

This version of the Bummi Original comes with an exterior layer of cotton
in fun prints. It has the same features as the Bummi Original, and comes in the same sizes, except that it is not available in NEWBORN.

The same care instructions apply to this diaper cover as apply to the Bummi Original. As well, we do not recommend this product for nighttime use, or for super heavy wetters. If the diaper is allowed to become very wet, eventually the
cotton exterior will absorb the moisture.

Some Great things about the company, really you'll be just as impressed as me:

Bummis was started by mothers using cloth diapers on their own babies. At that time, there was a serious lack of good quality, affordable diaper covers on the market. So we set out to fill that niche - designing products that would work on our own babies. Fifteen years later we are still a company owned by mothers! We have grown and changed a lot (as have our babies), but our focus is the same.

We believe that good quality, easy to use & affordable diaper covers make it easy to use cloth diapers. We encourage parents to use cloth diapers because of the many benefits to be had in terms of health, cost, and the environment.

Impressed aren't you! First off I love to find amazing products by moms, we are of course the best thinkers :). And their goals are exactly what I look for when I'm researching. With times tough I do even more research, I want the best bang for my buck, items that are good for my kids along with ones that actually work and of course I love to treat the Earth well! Bummis brought all my goals to me and I'm thrilled to share them with you also.

Bummis has generously offered one of my readers Bummis Swimmi Size M (15-22lbs) ~ See Picture (Right ---}) of the Swimmi you'll receive:

WIN IT: Mandatory got to Bummis website and tell me what other Product you would like!

(CLOSED) Fun in the Sun Day 2 ~ Skin MD Natural + SPF15 Giveaway (1 Winner)

<br /><center><a href="http://mom2mycrazy2.blogspot.com/"><img src="http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s1/aproffitt79/07_beach-4.jpg" /></a></center><br />

With Summer here and us being outside more and more we need all the protection we can get. As many of you know I have horrible skin and was super excited when Skin MD Natural let me do a review for them a while back. I was even more excited when they contacted me asking to do a giveaway. You know how I love to share, especially products that are amazing!

So a little recap of my review so you can learn more about Skin MD Natural and then on to the giveaway!

Review done previously:

A while back I was asked to review a bottle of Skin MD Natural. I was so excited, thank you grandmother, I inherited the worst skin and winter and season changes kill my hands. I have found that finding a good lotion that keeps my hands soft and ready for the elements is hard to find. Now believe me I'm on a mission to find the best, when I look into my future I don't like what I see. My future is my fathers hands that crack open and hurt terribly.

I'm happy to report that after using my bottle for over a month my hands are loving life! They are smooth and looking healthy! I love that you can rub it in and you don't have that greasy feel. I have another lotion I use and after putting it on I can't touch anything for at least 20 minutes with out fear of leaving my grease trail. Now I can wait the 20 minutes and just hope my boss is ok with me just hanging out! Or I can use a lotion that protects me skin with a Sunscreen SPF 15, that absorbs right on the spot.

Check it out yourself you can go on their website Skin MD Natural or you can even pick up a bottle yourself at your local drug store. I went on the Skin MD Natural website and entered my zip code and up came a list of stores! It's that easy!

What you think I wouldn't show pictures? Come on you better.

Before ~ Check out my hand!

So I grab for my bottle of

Skin MD Natural
Pour a little in your palm.
One application down.
My hand today!
Doesn't that look amazing.

WIN IT:

Mandatory got to Skin MD Natural website and entered your zip code and tell me where the closet store is. Yup that easy!

Today kicks off the start of Fun in the Sun Giveaway with my Gal Allie @ Misadventures in Baby Raising. I'm so excited just wait we have some amazing giveaways coming up!

On to my new friend in life Ouchies! I don't know about your house but my boys have not meet a wall or a cement floor they didn't like. Who knew ... ok I knew since I was klutz but man I hoped it wouldn't be passed on! But no such luck those poor boys have more bumps and bruises. Thankfully most of our accidents have been curred with a bandaid or on the rare case a sterie strip! Ok universe I'm big time knocking wood don't you dare curse me! I called uncle a week ago!

So the boys are so sick of different characters or of course the boring old baige ones. So when Ouchies gave me the opportunity to do a giveaway, I jumped at the chance. You should have heard Cole when he saw the super cool Ouchies! Yes he was over joyed to get the awesome tin of Teen-Age Boy Bands! So later on that night Cole comes running to me I'm bleeding (we have a rule no bandage unless blood ... yes I'm a mean mom). Check out the picture of the "Ouchie" he had! Yup you may need ZOOM in! He's so silly, but he LOVED the Ouchies so much! He picked out the Dragon Ouchies! Let me tell you when we got to school he ranright over to the teacher and had to show it off. I think he may have even used it as his show-n-tell that day!

Check out Ouchies they have 4 amazing styles to choose from. And for you celebrity stockers like me, check it out you may even see a few of them wearing them!!!

WIN IT: Ouchies has generously offered 2 tins to my AMAZING friends/readers!

I have:
