#ziggy baby has crib sheets too! They fit in my pack n play as well.





These jersey cotton sheets from Ziggy baby are ridiculously soft, just like the matching changing pad covers. These fit perfectly on to the crib mattress but, but they work really well on my pack and plays as well. I was in need of two sheets for my babysitting boys' pack and plays for when they have naptime at my house. They went on easy because the sheets have a lot of springy elastic all the way around so they gather up underneath and you can just tuck the tiny bit of remaining fabric under. I would only do this for babies ages one and up for my personal opinion. The mattress's I am using are aftermarket thicker padded ones but they also work on just the flat stock mattress as well. I am very pleased to have these in my house and think they would make excellent neutral baby shower gifts!

Ziggy Baby Changing Pad Covers




These Ziggy Baby changing pad covers are so soft! I just ordered the matching crib sheets as well! They fit perfect on my large contoured change pad. There is no slot for the safety straps but that is not a problem the straps just go around. These covers also make a perfect bassinet sheet! I put one on my Bugaboo Cameleons bassinet and it works pretty much perfect. My son is a toddler so diaper changes are not messy so I haven't needed to wash them yet, but I think they will just keep getting softer! Check them out on Amazon! They would be a great baby shower gift.

#backseatorganizer by Growing Sunshine



I received this product for the sole purpose of providing my honest and unbiased feedback.

Back Seat Organizer from Growing Sunshine
My kids are excited to have somewhere to store their treasures in the 3rd row of my SUV. I don't let them leave things in the car so I don't have pictures of it full, but my bigger kids have had no complaints! They put their small stuffed animals in there on their way to grandmas, or their coloring pads. Installation was very easy, you just clip it around and then hook the hooks through the seat bight. (It doesn't interfere with my car seat.) I like how that stabilizes it for my kids to get their things in and out, no flapping around! I only wish my car had adjustable headrests in the front so all my kids could have one for their stuff. I wouldn't put anything in there that might be a projectile in a crash. We just bought this SUV used and haven't detailed it yet, don't mind the dirty seats in the pictures!

Teethy Fruit Teethers by Baby Grips



I received this product for the sole purpose of this review.

I love how cute these are! My teething 1 year old took right to them! He is getting his last two canine incisors and he has not been having the best time with that! They wash up perfectly in the dishwasher, which is good because they attract lint a bit. I put one in the freezer but then my son thought it was a Popsicle so that might be best for younger babies! The little guy I babysit liked them but I couldn't get him to use it for a picture..boys will be boys! I really do recommend these, if they can hold up to my super chomper they are excellent quality! I received these for free/discounted deeply for the sole purpose of providing an honest and unbiased review, I was not compensated in any way, my thoughts are my own.

Vellostar Liquid Chalk Markers


I received these for the sole purpose of providing an honest review, and giving my personal feedback.
I give these markers 4 out of 5 stars. I really like that I can chose to use a blunt tip. They are a bit hard to wash off the stick on chalk boards I use that is why I gave them 4 out of 5, also they don't write well on bins like I was hoping. The slanted tip doesn't write smooth on a surface that is vertical like a wall, but it might be ok if you are using them horizontal like a chalk board painted table. The colors are nice and vivid, and go on pretty smooth!

MO+M Cotton Baby Carrier

I have been using this carrier almost daily. I am very active in the baby wearing "world", this carrier definitely deserves a look if you are looking into a carrier that is budget friendly and has the mesh option! My son is 20months old now and 26lbs as of his appointment 2 days ago. The seat of this baby carrier is not much larger than his diaper area so he is not knee to knee like it is recommended in children ages 2 and under. This is easily remedied by tying a scarf or large muslin blanket rolled up to support the legs to keep the pressure off their bottom/hips. This carrier is NOT a so called "crotch dangler" it is just not a toddler carrier, but can be used long into toddler-hood as long as you both are comfortable, and use the scarf trick if baby seems uncomfortable or has hip problems. I find the buckles to be easy to use, the straps are quite cushy and comfortable, if you have the straps or waist wrong your back will let you know after a few minutes, so be willing to do some adjustments before you throw in the towel if you are new to babywearing. The pocket is nice to have to keep my cell phone in. I LOVE that the hood is a soft cotton, it supports my sons head wonderfully while he is asleep or nursing. Nursing is very easy in this carrier, I just loosen the arm straps a bit so I can get into my shirt to give him access. The safety on the waist buckle is a very nice feature to have, my daughter loves to "help me" by unbuckling my waist buckle when I ask my toddler if hes ready to come out, this solves that problem. I am very excited about the mesh option! I love that the zip off panel just folds down into a waist pocket so you cant lose it or leave it at home. I have washed this carrier and it comes out looking brand new! This is great because it is the carrier I keep in my kitchen for when my toddler needs cuddles, but I don't want to cook in my other carriers. The only thing I would want to change about this carrier is that it had an adjustable seat to make it accommodate a toddler more comfortably, or that they made it in a toddler size separate!  But because I am reviewing this carrier and not doing a comparison of other carriers I am giving this baby carrier 5 out of 5 stars because it is a great budget baby carrier, Its sturdy, it has a mesh panel, and my son really enjoys it.
