MD MOMS - #babyMustHaves #blogReview made by Pediatricians

I do it for baby Rowan!

Give baby's skin the healthiest start! Our reusable BPA-free, phthalate-free zip top bag is filled with full sizes of baby's indispensable daily basics: Gentle All-Over Clean Hair & Body Wash, Daily Skin Protection Moisturizing Balm, Soothing Bottom Relief Diaper Rash Cream and a travel pack of Gentle All-Over Clean Cleansing Towelettes. The perfect starter set or shower gift!
MD MOMS Baby Silk Baby Basics Starter Set includes:
Gentle All-Over Clean Hair & Body Wash (6.8 oz. / 200 ml)
Daily Skin Protection Moisturizing Balm (6.8 oz. / 200 ml)
Soothing Bottom Relief Diaper Rash Cream (3 oz. / 85 g)
Gentle All-Over Clean Cleansing Towelettes (12 ct)
-This set I received would be PERFECT for a baby shower or the expecting woman in your life. Or be a great hospital gift for the new mom, when you visit the new baby!  This set retails for 50 arv and is fabulous!!!!
I was trying to get pictures of the items when they arrived and Rowan was tripping trying to take them from me! He was so excited!!!

I gave him the wipes bc he was so determined! 

True Happy Baby loves his MD Mom set!
This cream is perfect and safe and I use it at every diaper change on his precious bottom!  We are loving it. If diaper rash cream is not your thing, then try their liquid baby powder instead.
These are great because you can use them on any part of the body and they are great for wiping messy food off baby to head out to do errand quickly, small enough to throw in the purse to travel with you. Did I mention they smell great, but light? They also have sunscreen wipes!
This after-bath lotion was my favorite because it makes Rowan so touchably soft! 
Conditions that their line can treat:

  • Dry Sensitive Skin
  • Eczema
  • Cradle Cap
  • Psoriasis
  • Treat and Prevent Diaper Rash

Haha @ Rowan in the background... I love this BabySilk line!

I think we found a winner!

He's so cute...but I love that I can trust these products as they are made by Doctors for their own babies. What a cute idea!

Founded in 2006, MD MOMS is the first, and only personal care line for babies developed by pediatrician-moms. MD MOMS products are clinically tested, hypoallergenic, naturally based and specifically formulated with the unique needs of a newborn and sensitive skin in mind.

The range includes, hair and body wash, moisturizers, wipes, diaper rash and cradle cap remedies as well as award-winning sunscreen. Products in the line that are suited for eczema prone skin have been recognized and Accepted by the National Eczema Association, a distinction that sets the brand apart from competitors in the premium baby skincare space.

Meanwhile in Alabama: A cause close to my heart.

First things first.
We all make mistakes and most of us have been in trouble with the law at some point in our lives for something. No one is perfect.
My beautiful fiance was locked up in August due to a traffic ticket he got years ago, and never paid. Granted he should have taken care of it. But it is really worth six months of his life because he didn't have the grand to take care of the fines?

Blount County Alabama This year. He was locked up and given 180 days when our son was six months old. He has missed him learning to crawl. Missed his first babbles, will miss his first Halloween, and probable Christmas too and quite possibly learning to walk, since Rowan is cruising along quite bravely and nicely now.
It's sad but there not much I can do, short of getting a lawyer, which I don't have the money myself for, since I am raising the baby; now- without help.
Plus + seems to me a risky gamble to put out 300-600+ for a lawyer for a CHANCE to get him out of jail. Seems the money would be better put on his fines. But so I've heard, even if the fine is paid in full, they have no plans to release him until FEB/MARCH NEXT YEAR.
Meanwhile his ex is writing him letters in jail, and if she keeps mentioning me & my child in them I'll be right there in jail alongside him...

I'm just saying.
Anyway- so when I saw this DOC short, it was a cause close to my heart that I thought I'd share.
Really pisses me off how money can buy you everything. I got even more mad this weekend when 20/20 aired their "Affluenza" defense special about a teen who killed 4 and injured 14 driving drunk and got a light slap on the wrist got out of all jail time and went to a ritzy "rehab" instead, simply because his parents are (billionaires?) or millionaires.

< / 3

Well, this place is old, it feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
Well it smells of cheap wine and cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams
I think your death it must be killin' me

BABY thats whats left of me, I dont have very far to fall






I had a wall built higher than soul can hope or mind can hide and then somehow you managed to find a crack in that hole. Now that wall has been reinforced and I never wish to be without it. I never want to love again if it hurts this much to lose it. The happiness of love is not worth this pain.
There was something in that building drawing me in, tempting me with something I could have only dared to dream of, a love so beautiful that it would take my breath away. And you did, I couldn’t breathe. I saw you and instantly my heart knew what it had waited so long for. I knew more about you in a few short months that I would about anyone else in a lifetime. I traced every part of you and memorized every curve, forever burned into my head.
It’s always funny to me, matters of the heart. My heart that still continues to beat even when it’s been shattered in pieces. My heart that still has the ability to love even after its love has been ripped from it. The heart can be torn and thrown around, ripped, and shredded, and yet it still remains, there in our chest, forever beating against our skin, reminding us that we are alive and that a broken heart kills you in a much different way than death. My heart breaking has brought unbearable sadness to my life. A love so great that separation from him breaks it even more. 
They say that the heart that loves withstands the test of time, but the heart that loves and loses only has the strength to withstand what is left in the bitterness that follows a heartbreak. 
My love, you have no idea how much I love you. No one on this earth has any idea how much. Every single love in this world is different and everyone loves differently. Never does the same love happen twice. Never will anyone love you the way I do, and for that, I am sorry. I did not chose this, and I would never chose for you to live the rest of your life with a mediocre love.

@PBJfoods #SAM + #charity: This Christmas consider helping others, such a small amount to you, can make such a BIG difference in the lives of others. #ad

Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) is the number one killer of children under five years of age. Nearly 20 million children around the world suffer from SAM.  In fact,  SAM kills 3.5 million children each year. That’s more than HIV, AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria combined.
 PB + J stands for peanut butter plus Jesus.
PB+J Foods Program Development Director Haley Hunsaker distributes PB+J fortified peanut butter paste to the parents of children suffering from Severe Acute Malnutrition in Malawi, Africa. One jar of the paste is a therapeutic food treatment that will provide all of the nutritional requirements for one child for one day.  PB+J Foods distributed nearly 16,000 pounds of the paste during it first seventeen months of operation, enough to save the lives of nearly 1,200 children (see more http://www.pbjfoods.org/animation)

In March 2012, 5 unique individuals from Orange County, California got together and pooled their personal time and money to fight SAM in undeveloped nations.  In just 17 months, the non-profit organization they created, PB+J Foods, saved the lives of nearly 1,200 children in Malawi, Africa, who were suffering from SAM.
In March 2012, Stan Smith recruited his friends Brian Hunsaker, Donna Wertz, Heather Premac, and Haley Hunsaker, to create PB+J Foods, Inc., a non-profit organization designed specifically to eradicate Severe Acute Malnutrition in underdeveloped nations, like Malawi.

“To beat SAM we were going to have to do more than what typical humanitarian organizations do to feed the hungry,” Smith explains.  “We had to develop a way locally manufacture Ready-to-Use-Therapeutic-Foods (RUTF), to distribute RUFTs to remote villages, to provide locals with medical treatment and health care education, and we had to create a localized, self-sustaining economy that could provide for its people on an on-going basis.”

            From April 2012 to August 2013, they did exactly that … with their own money, on their own time, and with a few contributions from friends.  During the seventeen month period, the five members of PB+J Foods traveled to Malawi, Africa multiple times and accomplished the following:
·         Partnered with Nkhoma Hospital to create a RUTF manufacturing plant, to establish RUTF distribution sites, and to develop and operate medical and SAM treatment clinics throughout the region;
·         Created an educational program to provide villagers with basic knowledge about food safety and storage, malnutrition management, hygiene and sanitation, family planning, HIV/AIDS prevention, childcare, nutrition, and agriculture;
·         Began the formation of a local farmers co-op, intended to have at least 800 members, in order to grow local ‘ground nuts’, one of the most valuable nuts in the world, with Opportunity International Bank of Malawi, Afri-Nut, and World Vision which provides a cash crop for the local farmers, creating economic growth, and a steady supply of nuts for the RUTF peanut paste.
  

PB+J Foods has an ambitious goal for 2014. It is now working to secure financial donations to expand its infrastructure to: manufacture and serve RUTFs to 11,000 children suffering from SAM; to provide medical treatment to 1,000 children at Nkhoma Hospital and area clinics; to increase employment at the local PB+J RUTF production facility; and, to sell locally produced RUTFs on the open market to create revenues that will enable the PB+J programs in Malawi to become self-sustaining and provide RUTF products at no charge to their patients.  Donations may be contributed at http://www.pbjfoods.org/animation or by calling 949-702-3187.  

PB+J Foods is a non-profit organization designed to eradicate Severe Acute Malnutrition in underdeveloped nations. Their programs provide specially fortified foods for children suffering from SAM, medical treatment, and health education to those in need. Moreover, the programs they have developed help build local self-sustaining economies that can eventually provide the necessities of a better life in the future.

Please consider contributing to this great cause. If ever there was a charity I feel proud to stand behind it is this one. Do the right thing this holiday season and give the gift that keeps giving. Life. Anything can help so donate now. Even as little as 1$, but I would hope you'd consider giving up a value meal or two and donate a little more. To help one child is 30$, a family is $100 and you can also donate $500 if your feeling extra generous.

@rafflecopter: #giveaway Lysol's Allergy Air Filters #spon #enterTOwin a YEARS supply of Lysol Air filters. #blogGiveaway

Anywhere modern that you live, will need air filters! But which ones are best? If you suffer from, or someone in your household suffers from allergies to dust, pet dander and more then you should check out these very efficient Lysol Air Filters which are recommended for allergies.  
The one thing I found ,most helpful about this brand and could appreciate the fact that they are widely found throughout the country, I found mine at Lowes last year on the last blog review I wrote for them!

I have a coupon code though, if you prefer to purchase online, it can be even more time-saving, and the The 20% off code is CASEY20.   My readers can purchase the filters through the following link:
http://www.filtration.com/brands/lysol

    :)
  • I wanted to also share with you that they currently have a Rafflecopter contest for a year’s supply of Lysol Air Filters that will run from November 18th- December 6th.  You will need to ‘like and share’ the Lysol Air Filters Facebook page to be entered into the contest.  The link for the Rafflecopter contest is: http://www.rafflecopter.com/rafl/display/2261920/. You can just click that link to open in a new tab/window if the widget is not showing up on my blog (below.).

You wouldn't want to use anything less than a quality air conditioner filter, especially since you have to breathe to live. What circulates air daily around your house should also serve a purpose of putting out clean air, and cleaning the air that is circulating, agree?

 That's why just any old air conditioner filter is no good!

My Review of this movie!

It's amazing how realistic the animation on Pixar films has become. I swear even movies with actual people in them weren't as realistic as cartoons can be today!

The movie starts out good, grabs you by the seat and takes you on a fun, fast paced story that shows you how Mike and Sully actually met and became friends.

This movie was sad, but leave it to Disney to get right to the bottom of your heart and tug on your heartstrings. My kids were completely captivated while watching this movie. I remember hearing it was coming out over a year ago- and being so SO excited. Monsters Inc is one of my favorite "non-princess" Disney films. Even though it is Pixar, it is also DISNEY-Pixar now.
Or maybe it was always. I have a throbbing headache that is about to turn into a migraine.
Somebody call a doctor- a nurse.. heck anybody!
I always thought, wow if they did a sequel to that movie- it would be awesome! SO naturally- I jumped at the chance to review this BlockBuster BluRay set for the girls.

Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan are an inseparable pair, but that wasn’t always the case. From the moment these two mismatched monsters met they couldn't stand each other. Disney’s “Monsters University” unlocks the door to how Mike and Sulley overcame their differences and became the best of friends.
Download Monstrous Halloween Activities
One of the early concept drawings of an early Mike in college was dated 2008, which goes to show you just how long this Monsters Inc prequel has actually been in development. It’s kind of amazing that we only learned that it would be a prequel story-line earlier this year. To give you an idea of the timeline, Ratatouille was just completed when they began concept work for this film — it was that long ago.

I also heard that Pixar toured actual college campuses to prepare for the story and animation for this movie! Little facts like that are so neat, ot to mention impressive that much work goes into a movie. It's the little details, things you would never think. But it makes sense.

Mom and Dad will love hearing familiar voices of John Goodman, Billy Crystal and Steve Buscemi! My kids kept talking about the movie for days, giggling at parts of it at breakfast the next day over waffles!

In college you meet many different interesting and sometimes strange characters, and MU is no different. There are all sorts of monsters; frat monsters, nerd monsters and goth monsters, as well as an assortment of Monster professors.

Facts about movie found on:"Slashfilm.com"



Well that concludes my review of this 3 disc set, BluRay, Standard Def, and Digital Copy of Monsters University by Disney Pixar, and if you can't tell.. we totally loved it!

If you take our word for it. Buy this movie now! I left links to purchase on Amazon, Walmart & Target!


Amazon: 24.99
Walmart:: 24.99
Target: $29.99


Also, if you are in some need of entertainment for yourself and the kiddies (either/or) Do be sure to check out the Monsters University website by typing into your browser, "   www.MonstersUniversity.com   "
Check out the site, it REALLY looks like a professional collegiate website, legit!
I even took a screenshot just in case y'all didn't believe me!

Underneath that pic, at the VERY bottom of this post, you'll fiind that boring disclosure, but you'll also find links to follow Monsters University on Social Networks, like Twitter and Facebook!

Thanks for reading my review of this movie!
