Sunday Tid Bits

*Yesterday I read on Katies blog a new way to make bacon. I love me some bacon and I just so happen to have some in my fridge for Sunday breakfast. This new way worked great and so much easier than pan-grease splatter-clean up. Try this next time you make bacon!

*Our March for Babies team is moving right along. There is about 60 days to go and I'm working very hard. I am also a volunteer for The March of Dimes to help coordinate the walk. Lots of work but a great cause. If you are interested in making a donation please use the link on my  left sidebar. I am almost at my personal goal and our team goal has been set at $5000.

*We are in a winter wonderland with all the snow we got on Friday. I was really hoping to go right to Spring so I want it to melt fast!!! It's suppose to be 45+* today so maybe it will!

*I am obsessed with the gluten free bakery 45 min from my house. Yes I drive that far for gluten free goodness. Lots of treats from yesterdays trek and some yummy pita bread.

*I have been wanting a pair of gray jeans. I found these J Brand skinnies at Nordy of course. Thoughts?

 *B taking Sun morning naps on dad!

*B will be 18 months tomorrow. A year and a half! Such a big boy! He goes to the Dr on Saturday so I will post stats and pics.

Happy Sunday!

Happy Little Man!

Last night B was being silly with dad. Such a happy boy. And his new fireman jammies are so cute. Size 24mo already!

Seriously teeth, where the F are you?

I got teeth late. I was 13 months when I got my first. D was 6 months old. I expected B to teeth late but he is 17 months and NO teeth. NOT ONE!!! Seriously? I'm half convinced the kid is going through life toothless.

He'll have a fussy night and I get all excited, maybe a tooth? And nothing! I have been saying he is teething for a year and still my little man has a gummy grin! (which I do love)

He doesn't chew on toys which can delay teeth. Chewing helps kiddos pop teeth through. When he had his swallow study done last September we saw all his teeth in x-ray under the gums so I know they are there, they just want to stay there!

Anyone have kiddos who got teeth late?

B has his 18 months check up in two weeks and we can ask the pediatrician her thoughts. Until then we will teach B that chew toys are fun!!

Natural Product Review

I was contacted by Naturally Fresh and asked if I would be interested in doing a product review. Since going chemical free last month I am always looking for new products to try so I jumped at the chance to try them!

I was sent Naturally Fresh Deodorant Crystal, Spray Mist, and MoistStic lip balm.

I must say I am now a fan. Natural deodorant takes awhile to get used to but once you do you will love it too. I feel so much better that I'm not putting aluminum (found in traditional deodorant) on my skin right after I shave my under arms. The link between aluminum and breast cancer made me want to covert and I'm not going back.

I really like the Naturally Fresh products, they keep me dry and smelling great. The lip balm is amazing! I already ordered more for my night stand, diaper bag. It's the best lip balm I've ever tried. I love lip balm with peppermint oil. I feel like this balm actually moisturizes my lips and lasts for a few hours. It also comes in SPF for the summer.

If your looking to make a switch to some natural products, which I suggest all woman to do with there deodorant especially, try Naturally Fresh!
