I do believe that Lil’ Rinser is every parent’s answer to their children’s bathing issues! I know that you know what I mean when I say that my girls FIGHT when it’s time to wash their hair… “No Mommy! It’s in my ears!” “NOOoooo Mommy! My face!” I’m sure there have been plenty of other [...]

Leaps and bounds sent us the Dual Microwave Plate Holder to try out. Since I have twins, who are always hungry at the same time, this was perfect for us to try.
It’s very simple to use, and easy to clean! Place a plate of food in the microwave, put the holder above the plate, and set a second plate of food on top. Heat it up, and toss in the dishwasher when it gets dirty!
Both of your kids can eat together, so neither is whining or causing trouble while waiting for the other plate. Not only are you saving time with the Dual Plate Holder, but you’re also saving energy!
It’s a great little gadget! Now, why didn’t I think of that?!?!
The Leaps and Bounds Dual Microwave Plate Holder is only $5.95. Check it out!

It’s Halloween time!!!! At least, that’s what all the decorations in the store, and my girls are telling me! Do you have your costume ready??? I don’t! I’m still working on what the girls are going to dress up in as well.
I came across a website that has so many costumes, it’s hard to decide which one to get! Halloween Adventure is an awesome site!
I looked through just about all of the categories, and have been pleasantly surprised at what I’ve found! Many costume shops have plus size costumes, but they’re very frumpy and they only have a couple to choose from. Halloween Adventures Plus Size Costumes section is over 40 pages long, and the costumes there look like they’re very well made. They have some really cute costumes!
The girls are so excited about Trick or Treating this year, and they won’t stop talking about what they want to be this year. The funny thing is, it changes every time I ask them. They are really getting to the age where they can truly enjoy the “spirit” of the Holiday. I think looking around Halloween Adventure will give them some good options for costumes. What I’ll probably do is show them the site, and let them choose from the site!
I truly do recommend that you check out Halloween Adventure’s Halloween Costume Stores as soon as possible! If you don’t make it in time for this Halloween, buy now for next year!! You can never be too prepared!!!
Now, I just have to get all of this done before it’s too late to get it in time for Halloween!!
Need Plus Size Costumes or Children’s Costumes?

I found a new site today that I just HAD to bookmark! The party season has begun in my house, and everyone knows that I am such a stickler for throwing a fun party! Celebrations.com is an awesome website with part ideas for every possible occasion. October brings so much fun with my Sister in Law’s birthday, my Husband’s birthday, and Halloween.
I found so many awesome ideas for this year’s Halloween party, it’s going to be so hard to decide what to do! I’m definitely going to have a party that’s going to be fun for adults and kids alike. But what do you do that’s not too scary for the kids, and still not too corny for the adults? Pumpkin carving/painting contest!!! Celebrations.com has the best tips for carving and painting pumpkins!
How about an eco-friendly party?!?! They have ideas from making your own home made candy and treats, to your own home made costumes! They also have some cool ideas for decorations and Organic Halloween Cocktails! You know those paper tablecloths? Forget about those, and opt for black and orange bed sheets instead! If you’re super artsy craftsy, you can even take a couple and sew them into different designs, like a patchwork, or stripes or even a big orange jack o’ lantern in the center!!
Now, if you’re looking for ideas for an adults only party, check out the Halloween Party Games section!! They’ve got drinking games! 
I’m going to be using this site a lot in the next few months! I think I may have been inspired to throw a New Year’s Party too!!! Check it out!!!
Perfect Party Planning!

I had a couple of requests to check out the Primo Folding Potty Seat with Handles from Leaps and Bounds. Luckily they had them in stock, and they were able to send one to me. Thank you L&B!
I opened it up, and inside was a plastic bag and the potty seat all folded up. It was so small when it was folded. When I unfolded it, I was really surprised to see how sturdy it was. I knew this was something I had to take with us to the State Fair the next day.
It was perfect for keeping in the girls’ bag, and it worked out so well! How many times have you gone to the bathroom with your kiddos, and there are NO paper toilet seat covers? What about trying to use those toilet seat covers and they keep falling into the toilet? It’s just such a pain… especially when your little one seriously has to go NOW! What about germs? How many times have they torn, gotten wet with whatever was left on the toilet seat from a previous person? With this seat, you don’t have to worry about dealing with those thin, easy to tear or fall paper liners! This seat is thick plastic, with handles on it for your child to hold on to. You unfold it, your lil’ one uses it, and you fold it back up and put it in a plastic bag and seal it up. When you get home, you can wipe it down and there you go! It’s as simple as that!
My one and only complaint about it is that it seems like the center opening is a little small. The girls have been able to shift themselves to use it, but I’m always worried that they’ll be too far forward or back, and miss the potty. Maybe it’s just me.. Other than that, this item is pretty darn cool. I highly recommend buying this potty for your little one that is potty training! It will definitely be good to have on hand for those “I gotta go” moments while you’re out and about!
You can buy your Primo Folding Potty Seat with Handles from Leaps and Bounds for only $12.95!
