Blumm box is HERE!!!!

Yay!!! So this came just as I was getting Jedidiah fixed up from his nap.( which was right after my wonderful Pedi:)
I have to say I was expecting a little more from there ad but  still it was fun.
This is what we got in out first 9month old box. 1) Two protein-packed Quinoa for toddlers or infants. For infants you add your milk, formula, or water. Toddlers  just sprinkle some on there food for a extra boost. We have not tried this yet we will tomorrow and I will let you know how that goes.
2)Luna Bar- this was for mommy.... so good but they should have given two because after one I wanted another. It was chocolate and coconut. If you do not like coconut you may not have like this but I thought it was good. Ok very GOOD!
 
3)Next  was a pack of Camilia teething drops. Homeopathic medicine. In all truthfulness I will not be using these. So they will go to another family. My loss on this.
4) Apple Park- this was cute. We got a little book that we got to read together about animals going to the park for a picnic. Then we opened the box to find a organic made monkey rattle. Jedidah liked this but was not his favorite. He liked the story time together but the toy it's self was not a big hit.


5)Was a Hello Baby book- a high contrast book. the book it's self was not to his liking he really did not even want to look at it. But being a 9 month old he did love that on the end of the book are some tabs he can teeth on. So this got a plus for teething tabs.
You can also see the monkey rattle in this photo:) 

So over all I am ok with this box. It did not make a really big impression on me. But they have a chance to redeem them selves since we are sign up for six months. So once I get the next box we will share once again what we got. If you want to get one for you baby I will post the info. in my next post tomorrow.

Have you ever tried any box things for kids what is your favorite one?                                                                             


Pedi so nice!!!


Ok I’m so happy to say that my husband took the morning off this morning and stayed home to help out around the house! SO with that I was able to go and take a shower this afternoon once all the littles where down then I did something crazy. I got out and decided to give myself a pedi.J 
 I very much am a bare foot type person so my feet really needed this to the point where I spent a good half hour scrubbing my feet and I still could have gone longer.
 


 
 After I did that I put those toe things on to help spread my toes a little.   Anyone ever have their feet feel like they are on fire once you place them on? I do and have yet to find a reason.
 
But my water for the foot soak was wonderful smelling even to this morning sick mama. I did some Epsom salt and the three drops of lavender and two drops of  wild orange. Yummy!  Nice and relaxing just what I needed and guess what as soon and I mean as soon as I dried my feet off and I really mean as soon (I did not even clean up water yet) Jedidiah woke up. But God is good and keep them all sleeping just long enough. That was a blessing to this mama. God is good

What do you like to put in your pedi  water?
