I have been using Parents Choice diapers on my daughter the majority of the time since she has been born and have only recently started having an issue with them. When my daughter was smaller if her diaper would leak it wasn't a problem cause we would up a size and she would be fine. But at 18 months we had to up her to size six which is the biggest size I see available in Walmart for Parents Choice diapers and they havent been working well at all. She has leaked out of three diapers in a little over a week. I decided to try a different brand and see if I had better luck so I picked up a box of Pampers Cruisers.
The box of 54 Pampers diapers I picked up in size 6 cost 22.97$ at Shoppers Drugmart and I have to say I have been wrong using the lower end brands. These diapers fit perfectly to my daughter's body and they are WAY MORE absorbent than the Parents Choice diapers. When she was wearing Parents Choice diapers it was obvious when she urinated cause the diaper was thin and you could see the urine and the diaper would droop. Since I started using Pampers her diaper no longer droops and I have to admit these diapers are so absorbent that I have even ended up changing her a few times when I don't even think she wet her diaper. The urine is so evenely distributed in the diaper that it doesn't feel heavy like it did with the Parents Choice. I also love that these diapers seem to have a baby powder scent to the!. It just smells like baby.
Since I have noticed how much better a higher end diaper is I won't be going back to using Parents Choice for my daughter or my upcoming baby. Admittedly Huggies were on sale this week and I can't wait to try them and compare them to Pampers. For those who have a very active baby that's always on the move I definitely recommend Pampers!

I have to say we had this for supper with a side of mashed potatoes and a pile of steamed vegetables and it was absolutely delicious. The crust was nice and flaky just the way a pie crust should be. The filling consisted of small squares of white meat chicken cubes, peas, carrots and mushrooms in a nice creamy bechamel sauce. My whole family thoroughly enjoyed it, and it was easy to make. All I had to do was put the pie in the oven for 60 minutes and supper was served. I will definitely be buying St Hubert's Chicken Pot Pie again! -

Argan oil is one of my favorite beauty products and one I use on a daily basis. I love how versatile it is. You can literally use it on your whole body head to toe. It can be used to condition nails, you can apply it to your hair to make it look healthier and shinier. I sometimes like to apply it like a deep hair treatment and leave it in overnight and wash and condition my hair as usual the following morning. I notice since I started doing this I have been getting less split ends.
Argan oil is also really great for the skin due to its antioxidants credits. Even though it's oily it absorbs quickly and doesn't leave my skin healthy, glowing and slightly plumped. I usually use a serum, my regular day/night cream and then apply argan oil overtop. This oil is even great for those with eczema. I wish I would have known about this when my son was younger and suffering with really bad eczema.
I am currently thirty-three weeks pregnant and also rub it on my belly, hips thighs and other areas that are prone to stretch marks and so far my stomach doesn't have a single stretch mark. Although this is an oil it absorbs quickly into the skin if you put the right amount.
The Majestic Pure Argan Oil is natural and pure as well as cold pressed which is what you want in an oil because once oils are introduced to heat it can reduce the efficacy of the product. Another great thing is it comes in an amber bottle which helps protect it against sunlight which may also reduce the efficacy of the product. I always keep my oils stored in a dark cool place.
The price for this product is great, especially considering it comes in a large 4 oz bottle and since a drop of two can go a long way a bottle of this size will last me months even though I use it daily. It comes with a regular top as well as the dropper top. Usually they come with one or the other.
I have got to say this oil is a great price and well worth the money, especially considering how many purposes it has. I only listed a few, if I were to list them all I would be here all night. This is a beauty product I would recommend to everyone especially if you're looking for natural beauty product. I absolutely love argan oil and it is still my favorite oil so far. For me it's definitely a must have.

Crab Tree & Evelyn Citron Honey & Coriander is a thin lotion. Although when I first apply it to my skin it feels somewhat moisturized it seems to evaporate fast and I need to apply it more frequently than I would have to most other lotions.
The scent is a light lemon smell which is not one I'm accustomed to in creams or lotions but more with dish detergent or laundry detergent. Although this lotion might be for some people it's not for me. Although lemon is a clean, fresh scent and some may like it, it's just not for me. I also prefer creams or body butters more than lotions as I find they are more deeply Moisturizing and hydrating my skin better.

A makeup mirror might not be a must have for everyone but if you have really bad lighting in your house like I do then its actually quite handy. I like that it's very light and extremely portable. It can be powered up by either 4 AAA batteries which are not included or can be charged with the USB cord that comes included or any other android changer you might have around the house.
The mirror itself is easy to assemble and use. You just attach the mirror to the base and turn the power switch on in the back and in the front their is a touch sensor button that turns on the 21 LED lights. I was afraid the lighting would be harsh but it's a soft white light that makes it easier for me to see when applying my makeup. There are two magnifying mirrors one is 2x and the other is 3x. I have a hard time seeing without my glasses so the 3x mirror works perfect for me.
This mirror has absolutely no distortion so there's clarity at every angle which is especially important when applying makeup. The rest of the mirror is made up of a smooth durable plastic. The mirror is thin and since it is a trifold mirror its very easy to fold.The only complaint I have with the Beetle Trifold Mirror is that I wish it came in black instead of white. I find black to look more stylish and chic and not to mention that white is always harder to keep clean. But since it's plastic it is easy to wipe clean. I just wipe it down with a damp cloth every once in a while.
So whether you have vision problems like myself and need this mirror for magnifying purposes or for bad lighting in your home ora just the need to see your face from all angles to apply your makeup then this mirror is for you. The stand swivels and rotates 180° or you can also remove it from the stand and lay it flat if that's your preference. It's easy to use but if you do run into any difficulties you can take a look at the users manual.

I am currently 32 weeks pregnant and I have got to say I absolutely love the Wingslove nursing bra. The material is so comfortable and shapes to your body. The outer part is made up of 93% nylon and 7% spandex and the inner part is made of 100% cotton.There's no underwire which is great beause now that I'm pregnant bras with underwire tend to be slightly uncomfortable and dig into my back and another thing that makes it so comfortable is the wide band on the back where it clasps. There are three clasps so you could don't have to worry about it coming undone. This is a nursing bra so the front part easily unclips and folds down so your baby can have full access to the breast.
The washing instructions are written on the inner tag. It's recommended that you hand wash only and then hang dry. There are removable breast pads to help conceal your nipples which you will want to remove and clean as well. This bra also comes with extenders which may be useful to some but I probably won't need to use them. I have to say this is my new favorite bra and I'm happy it will be useful for the remainder of my pregnancy as well as the duration of the time I will be breastfeeding my daughter. It's so comfortable I would even recommend it to those that are not pregnant or breastfeeding

I get the Eggo Plus Fibre for my son and daughter since it is a healthier option as my son is a health fanatic and my daughter is now 18 months so it's important to have as much healthy options as possible. These waffles are only 70 calories per two waffles which is great and they have so many added vitamins compared to the original waffles. The box says it all. It's a good source of fibre, they are made with whole grains and a source of 11 essential nutrients. These might not taste as sweet and nice as the originals but they are healthier and make a great breakfast when you are in a hurry. Just pop them in the toaster and when they pop put syrup or your topping of choice. My son tops it with peanut butter and banana and I usually just give my daughter with syrup. Sometimes you have to love an effortless breakfast. -

I am not a big waffle fan but about a month and a half ago we bought these at Walmart when we were doing groceries and my husband made me taste a bite and I have to say I was floored. They were absolutely delicious. They are nicely toasted on the outside and thick and fluffy on the inside. The description on the box says it all. The cinnamon flavor compliments the brown sugar taste although the cinnamon dominates the brown sugar. I can eat them with syrup or without. The pockets in the waffles are nice and deep allowing for copious amounts of butter and syrup to be stored thereby adding to the overall enjoyment of such a spectacular waffle. Since the first time we have purchased these the have become a must have every time we go grocery shopping. The only thing I wish is they sold bigger boxes cause I have only seen boxes of six at our local Walmart. I'm happy to say these are often on sale for less than 3$ a box. I usually buy a minimum of two boxes at a time. If you haven't tried these and you're a waffle lover I highly recommend you do. -

The Lumsing Kitchen Scale I purchased is black and has a tempered glass platform making it look sleek and fashionable. This makes it easy to clean with a soft tissue and glass cleaner. When you first turn it on you will notice the blue backlight which makes seeing the readings easier since then immediately are all in bold black.
The scale is simple and very easy to use. There's a power on button and another button to choose what unit you want to measure in. The choice is LG's, Fl oz, oz, g or ml. Make sure the reading is at 0 before placing what you want weighed on the scale. I weighed a cookie that we 50g and it came up once at exactly 50g but when I moved the scale it came up after as 52g. I can only assume that's because my floors are not level. But still pretty accurate.
Keep in mind you do have to remove the thermometer part beforehand the scale. The maximum weight of this scale is 5kg before tare. If the amount you are measuring is over that weight it will read EEEE. Another feature this scale has is if the batteries are low it will read "Lo" on the screen so then you know it's time to change them.
The removable thermometer depicts temperature, time , date & humidity and also an alarm clock. The set up is very easy as well. If you come across something you don't understand or can't figure out on your own the users manual is very informative and has all the information in regards to the scale as well as the thermometer. This is a great scale for someone that is in need of a kitchen scale that works well and won't break the bank.

Although my son and husband prefer Buckley's cough syrup when they are sick my preference is Advil Cold & Sinus. I love that you just need to swallow a tiny little pill rather than a bad tasting syrup to get rid of your cold symptoms. They are non-drowsy so they are safe to take if you are working or driving.
I rarely ever get sick which is great but years ago when I had a really bad cold I purchased Advil Cold and sinus and I have to say it worked well. I had body aches and was feeling chills and my nose was so congested. After taking this my body aches were reduced almost immediately and I was able to breathe so much better. I also found that my cold lasted less time than if I just let it run its course. I believe it was completely gone in three days. I always recommend advil cold and sinuses not anyone is sick. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I don't get sick for a long time but if I do Advil Cold And Sinus will be my first choice.
