As a Tommee Tippee Mommee and ambassador for the brand, I am excited to let you know about a great new collection of brightly colored, Closer to Nature bottles. The Fiesta Fun Time Collection of Closer to Nature bottles combine the features you want with colors to make baby’s world a little brighter.
The limited edition set of six bottles is available now on Amazon.com. I just love the bright colors, the set is like a rainbow! The Closer To Nature bottles have a revolutionary nipple to mimic the breast’s natural flex, the compact shape of the bottle allow for more natural feeding and for baby to be closer to mom or dad, the slow flow nipple and easi- vent valve eliminate excess air flow, bottles are BPA free and easy to clean. Now you can turn feeding time into a party and color baby’s world with fun!
Closer To Nature Bottles Feature:
Revolutionary nipple developed with breastfeeding experts and moms to mimic the breast’s natural flex, stretch and movement, closer to nature bottles makes feeding time easier for mom and baby. The soft silicone nipple feels like skin, and gently elongates and flexes during feeding to mimic natural breastfeeding action.
The compact shape of Closer to Nature bottles allows baby to feed in a natural position and to be closer to mom or dad. The easy hold bottle can be held in 3 ways–cradled comfortably in the hand, gripped in the same way as a traditional wide neck bottle, or held from the base.
The slow flow nipple with a super sensitive valve eliminates excessive air flow, so little ones ingest more milk and less air.
Closer to Nature bottles and nipples are easy to clean and fill. They are microwave and dishwasher safe, yet light and easy to hold. The easy hold bottle is marked in millimetres and ounces and has a hygiene seal cap to keep germs out and drips in.
The soft silicone nipple feels like skin, and gently flexes during feeding to mimic natural breastfeeding action. The breast like shaped nipple allows baby to latch on easily and further supports the transition between bottle and
breast.
Happy National Painting Week! Are you working on any painting projects? You know I have a bunch in the works with all the home improvement we are doing. Next on the list for me is to pick the paint color for the new master bath and master bedroom projects. I will update when I make a decision but in the meantime check out Sherwin-Williams helpful tips, color ideas and projects at SWPaintingWeek.com.
We toyed with the idea of constructing our own recessed storage cabinets on the sides of the vanity, but the more we looked at components we would need and the work involved, especially given the amount of projects we still had to complete, it started to make sense to go with something finished. I did try, even went to Hobby Lobby and other stores for something that would work as a door but look like a nice piece of wall art on the wall concealing a medicine cabinet. In the end we went with The Concealed Cabinet because we can still make custom tweaks like add a power strip inside the cabinet, but the basics are done. The other great feature is that we can customize the door with a print, photograph, artwork from our children or whatever we like and we can change it as often as the mood strikes.
I am so excited to tell you and show you more on these great cabinets. We are going to take you through the entire installation process not only of the cabinets but of the entire master bath and master bedroom renovations. Feel free to share any ideas and tips you have or tell us about any projects you are working on. We chose the extra-large size and will have one on either end. So now the next decision is picking out the art to display on the door frame.
The other news is that the new whirlpool tub is being delivered on Wednesday. I have been holding off demo until then but it’s almost time to get the rest done and start rebuilding. I tell you I am so looking forward to a long relaxing soak in that tub. We are having some design brainstorming sessions regarding the freestanding tub filler and its placement.
My husband assures me all is good, but I have to tell you, I’m a bit stressed by some placement issues we have. I still need to make a decision on the vanity lighting. The bathroom has recessed lighting in most areas except by the vanity area. I have been looking at so many different styles of lighting and my brain is on overload.
I picked up a great mirror I want to use as an accent in the bathroom at Hobby Lobby the other day. It is huge, heavy, and gorgeous. It is nearly the same color as the vanity I refinished for my sewing table last year and I have decided to use that color as an accent color in the bathroom. I see that color everywhere and yet I am so stressed picking out towels and rugs. My daughter and I went to Home Goods a few days ago and I picked out some towels that I thought were in the same color family and bought them to hang on the towel bars that will be around the tub. When I found 3 rugs that also looked to be perfect I was ecstatic but a little perplexed.
I was so stressed if I had the right shade and then my daughter told me to chill out because there was a 30 day return policy if they weren’t. I get home and now, I don’t know if I am losing my mind or if the lighting in the store affected it, but they look more like a sea-foam greenish type blue than what I thought they were. Not sure what I am going to do yet, but I need to decide before my 30 days are up!

You could do pink and purple for a princess party, or use school colors for a sporting event, the possibilities are as vast as your imagination. To make this really neat and easy you can put the different batters in squeeze bottles and it makes filling the cupcake molds very easy. I did not do that because I was in a bit of rush and my cupcakes still turned out great.
Kimber Cakeware is sponsoring a give-away for my blog readers. We will be giving away 3 sets of these to 3 lucky winners. Each set contains 6 Batter Babies. So get ready to bake some cool cupcakes and your friends will be wondering how you did it. All you have to do is leave a comment on my Mommy Ramblings FB page ( http://www.facebook.com/pages/Mommy-Ramblings/142284565832382) of what you think would be the first combination you would bake if you won. That will get you one entry, you can earn another by visiting Kimber Cakeware on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Kimber-Cakeware/146735632016017?ref=ts) and liking their page and leaving me a comment that you did that on my Mommy Ramblings FB page (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Mommy-Ramblings/142284565832382).
