Got Woopra back on my computer! Now if only I could get one review done a week that would be SUPERFLY! I miss blogging so much.  What I’m able to type is so spacey that I wish I had more time to spend on one subject in each post.

So for those that are looking for reviews from a mom with two boys ages 4 and almost 3 please don’t hesitate to email me, caleenna at gmail dot com. I am able to check email mostly on the weekends so send it Friday and you will get a response by late Monday night.  Also from the time I receive the product or the time I receive confirmation of the review it will start the week of using the product, website or what have you.  Then on that last day I will compile on my notes and type up the review, it will sit for a day so that I may come back to it and reread it before posting.  I will also send you, the vendor, a link to the review so that you may do as you please with it.  I will have this posted on the PR page of my site as well so it will be in on spot at all times.

This will be my policy from now and until I can afford to have internet at my own home.  If you have any concerns or questions please email me at the above address.

In other news, my family has been sick the chills the aches you name it we are now starting to get over it but I just went to the doctor today and I have a slight case of bronchitis. Icky stuff I tell you.  The boys though seem to be doing alright and I’m sure they won’t get worse.

Gotta go home and call the parents of the child that I babysit and let them know that I now have antibiotics to help me get better.

Enjoy you Monday Night.

I’ve been asked to review the Personalized Name Pillows Ebook  from You Can Make This.com.  Let just say it was easy to read just like it was easy to read the tie and apron Ebooks I was sent.

They look really neat, and if and when I ever have the money and time to buy the materials you better believe I’d make one each for my two boys.  Of course I would let them pick out the fabric that want.

Connor would probably pick John Deere, Cars, Transformers, Spiderman, or something animals.  James would probably pick John Deere or SpongeBob.

For your chance to own your very own Ebook, which I’ve been given the chance to giveaway to TWO READERS.  Your main entry is to tell me how many you make and for who.  Second entry would be to tell me what those pillows might look like.

I have recently been brushing my teeth with Rembrandt’s Plus Fresh Mint toothpaste.  I’ve gotta hand it to’em the taste isn’t that bad and it does whiten your teeth. Now I’m not a coffee drinker so it worked within three days of using it along with the Whitening Strips.

Being a first time whitening strips user it was pretty funny talking with them on. My husband said, “Now I’m married to a football player.” LOL I’ve never worn teeth guards or had braces before that made me look a little different but that comes with wanting white teeth. I’m glad I was able to have the opportunity to try them.  I also think the strips could possibly be a bit thinner so they aren’t as bulky when you put them.  Like I said these were the first whitening strips ever that I have tried and may go back for more.

I also had the oppurtunity to try their Whitening Touch Up Pen. That is for when you are out and about when you need a quick touch up. I keep it in my purse just in case I need to take care of some spots.

My routine for using the strips was to brush my teeth, put the strips on, take a shower and do the rest of my morning routine until thirty minutes have passed.  For the strips you have to rinse your teeth for fifteen seconds with water place the top strip on your upper teeth and the bottom strip on your lower teeth after thirty minutes have passed you take the strips off and rinse out your mouth again.

Eyes Cream Shades is bringing in the New Year with a terrific new addition to its already popular collection.

My mother in law recently bought us WALL-E. We have watched it once so far and it’s pretty darn cute considering the things. It starts off showing you Earth covered in trash and WALL-E taking that trash and just building with it in these little squares. Then Eive comes into the picture, she searches this one area where WALL-E works to find some sort of plant life. Well once she puts the plant inside her storage compartment she doesn’t shut off but she no longer moves and waits for pick-up.

First a few images of the movie. First we meet WALL-E, the cute little robot who takes cubes of trash and has built buildings or at least something that resembles buildings to clean up the Earth from all the trash it had on it. Let me just say I hope we never get that bad because well we aren’t that far in space travel and all that to LIVE out in space. I know it’ll take probably thousands upon thousands of years but still there’s that technology thing that needs to be advanced.

So then we meet MISS newly polished EVE. These robots were made to come to Earth and just analyze anything in their path for plant life, once they find it they go back to the ship that they were shipped from. Now theses ships are really amazing… yet somewhat brainwashing the humans so they don’t find out the truth about why they never returned to Earth, the past SEVEN HUNDRED YEARS. HOLY MOLY! LOL So here’s EVE.

Now at first she doesn’t realize WALL-E and when she does she shoots at him. Those parts were a hoot. Poor WALL-E trying to figure out what she is, where she’s from and why she’s here. I’ll give WALL-E a thumbs up from being so darn cute and funny.

Well once they figure out each other are okay and not going to hurt each other, WALL-E show EVE his AWESOME stash of such said items, movies, ipod, memory cards, shoes, a lightbulb, and all other sorts of items. One item he threw out and kept it’s box.. A DIAMOND! LOL After WALL-E shows EVE the plant it’s like she goes into hibernation until her ship picks her back up. Well WALL-E didn’t like that and hitched a ride.

And from there they team to save Earth and let the humans come back home. It’s very cute, funny and adventurous. I laughed through the whole movie. There was one sad spot in hopes WALL-E would remember EVE

I recently had the pleasure of buying some NICE storage containers from Gordman’s. My brother had given me a nice gift card to that place and this past Sunday I had my chance to buy anything I wanted. This place had everything from clothing, womens, men, and childrens to bed and bath, and the sale they were having OH.MY.GOSH. I was in heaven.

Anyway the point of this is that Snapware is what these containers are called. I bought them from Gordman’s. I’m sure Walmart may carry them as well. So far they are the best kind of storage containers that I’ve had in a LONG TIME. These actually fit in my cabinets. If you have tupperware you’ll now the similar design to what I’m about to show for cereal or anything that you can pour out.

Snapware has all kinds of different storage containers. They range from food to household to craft to pet food and seasonal storage containers(which will come in handy come Christmas time).

The set that I have are called MODS, Modular Organized Durable Storage, from the site “food storage containers are 100% airtight and 100% watertight. The containers are designed with four easy to open and close latches that work together with the silicone seal to keep foods fresh and also to prevent liquids from leaking. The latches carry a lifetime guarantee.” So far they have prooven just that.

Here is what they look like in my cabinet:
All neat and stackable too. It’s so much better than what that looked like before. I will be sure to get more for the cereal.

HOW COOL IS THAT! Another company makes the flip top containers for cereal and actually fit in my cabinets!!! I will be making more purchases for those SOON!

So tell me what you use and what you do or do not like about what you use.

Have you ever been furstrated when reading books and having some flimsy bookmarker. Then once you’re done reading you lay it somewhere then you can’t find because it’s gone missing. Well NO MORE!

I am going to show you one of my wonderful gifts, but first a little background. My parents had gone to New Mexico to visit my grandparents, my mom’s parents and to see the Hot Air Balloon Festival. My mom saw this vendor out there that made these really cute bookmarks called the Book Button Magnetic Bookmarkers.

Now before I go any further, I’m not a big reader but a few friends of mine got me hooked on Twilight, am reading it for the second time because I now have my own COPIES. YAY!! LOVING IT! LOL

Anyway more about the Book Buttons. They have all kinds from hobbies to professions from sports to fantasy to gardening, and from gambling to military. OH and they have not left out the animal lovers. They also have culture bookmarkers.

Here are a few pictures of what my mom had given to me along with the link here.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, Enjoy.

This giveaway is sponsored by Dyanne Houlihan of CartStopper. You may see all pictures here including the HOW TO USE, which is very easy and fast.

I used it once already and I love it! The cartstopper kept my cart from moving with or without a child sitting in the cart. It’s very easy to assemble. Your car needs to be somewhat clean or the suction pad will lose it’s grip.

The part that goes through the cart is elastic and once it’s through all you do is turn it so that it goes acrossed the bars of the cart. There you have it you cart is attached to your car so you can have peace of mind while loading the shopping bags into your trunk.

Cart Stopper is a wonderful, inventive idea. An idea to keep your child safe. CartStopper is a simple product that helps prevent the cart from rolling away from you with your child still sitting in it. You can store in your purse, diaper bag, or one of the compartments in your car. Right now mine is being stored in the middle console. PREFECT FIT.

I will be using it every time I go to the store no matter if I have the boys with me or not.

Now on to your chance to win one of their three colors which is a light blue, red, or pink. Go to CartStopper, then come back here and let me know which color you would prefer.
