My Sibling/My Pal® For First Eucharist 18″ Girl Doll Review & Giveaway!!! First Holy Communion Doll!!!

Well, it is getting close to May believe it or not.  Many little Catholic boys and girls are preparing for their First Holy Communion. What a special day for them and their family!  Recently, I was given the opportunity to review a My Pal For First Eucharist 18″ Girl Doll.  First, let me tell you what a brilliant idea this is.  When my daughter was making her First Holy Communion, I wanted to get her a doll and I did, it is porcelain and lovely, but she definitely could not play with it.  My Pal has beautiful 18″ girl and boy dolls available in different hair, color and skin tones as well as different suit colors for the boy dolls and different dress styles for the girls.  I received my girl doll and she is just beautiful.  She comes dressed in her very best in preparation for her First Holy Communion Day. She has a white silk rose halo with a veil in the back, a beautiful detailed white communion dress, white underpants, white socks and shiny white mary jane shoes with little white bows on them.  Her limbs are vinyl and her body is soft and huggable.  Her long hair can be styled in a number of ways. She has eyes that close when she is laid down and beautiful features.  I can just imagine how excited a little girl would be to receive this doll on her Communion Day and how special it would be to her.  What a great gift for grandparents, Godparents, or parents to give the Communion child.  If you are looking for a special gift for a girl or boy making their First Holy Communion this spring, check out the My Pal Dolls for First Eucharist.  They also include a booklet where children can write a story about their sacrament and all the experiences they had which made the day so special.

The dolls are dressed and accessorized by teens and adults with disabilities who participate in the My Sibling/My Pal Work Experience Program.   The mission of  the My Sibling/My Pal Work Experience Program is to provide job sampling experiences for teens and young adults through their transition programs at school – they do not employ anyone.  Background:  Schools are mandated by federal law to provide transition (to adulthood & the workforce) services from the time a student is 14.  They (the schools) need companies who are willing to provide job “sampling” opportunities for their students in order to be able fulfill this educational mandate. No money changes hands.  The students do the work under the supervision of their teachers and/or job coaches, and My Sibling/My Pal picks up the finished product.  The benefit to these students is they learn how to work for a real company who produces and sells a real product – in other words, it’s not just practice.

Glamourmom® Nursing Bra Tummy Control Long Tank Review & $25 Gift Certificate Giveaway!!!

The Glamourmom® Nursing Bra Tummy Control Long Tank is the answer to a post-partum mother’s prayers! It is 3 in 1, a tank top, a nursing bra, and shape-wear! It is a bit of a challenge to get on and off, but the trouble is worth it! The extra inner layer is a stiff support panel that trims the tummy and waist and reduces post-partum “muffin top!” The shirt is comfortable without squeezing too much, it gives you support and control you need for the extra baby weight you might still have. It encourages proper posture during breastfeeding while supporting the lower back. With a full built-in bra, it also has easy to use, one-handed nursing bra clasps, and wide spaghetti straps with Memory Filler for extra support! It also has a light, breathable mesh layer to hold nursing pads in. I really loved this nursing bra tank, I felt so comfortable and supported, plus it is fashionable and long. You can wear it as an undershirt, or just wear it as your shirt and throw a shrug over top and you have a cute style. I wore it all day long and didn’t feel uncomfortable at all!

After the birth of her daughter in 2000, Line Rothman founded Glamourmom out of necessity when her search for a supportive, full tummy coverage nursing top came up empty. So was created the collection of nursing and maternity bras, tanks, sleepwear and more that Glamourmom is today! The cotton they use is manufactured in a way that incorporates environmentally conscious methods, reducing pollution from start to finish while still producing one of the highest quality cottons available today. “The Glamourmom brand offers the most fashionable pregnancy and nursing experience! With superior fit, quality and support, it’s easy to find the right style for you and your changing body.”

Discovery Trekking Outfitters, Ultra Fast-Dry Towel Review & Giveaway!!!

Almost spring folks, and we are going to be talking a lot about products that will help us get busy outside!  I recently had the chance to receive a Medium Ultra Fast-Dry Towel from Discovery Trekking Outfitters to review.  I chose the green because my four-year old is obsessed with green.  Featured in dozens of major magazine gear reviews such as Snews News, Backpacker Magazine, Practical Sailor, GearTrends.com, Camping Life, Boating Magazine, and Chicago Tribune Travel, Discovery Trekking’s towels have been getting a lot of publicity. The lightweight moisture-management fabric pulls the water from your skin. When the moisture reaches the outside of the fabric, it spreads out to many times its original surface area, enabling it to evaporate very quickly. For competitive swimmers, it’s a must! Being in and out of the pool, you need something that will dry you off, and then dry out very quickly. It’s made with a special technology that discourages bacterial growth so your towel won’t get that “smell” that cotton towels generate. This anti-microbial technology is virtually Permanent, it doesn’t wash out! It also boasts SPF sun protection anywhere from 15-40, depending on color (the darker the color, the higher the SPF). This fabric dries 3 times faster than cotton, yet it is so lightweight it looks almost sheer. Very soft against the skin, but it’s a hardworking fabric. The fabric in Discovery Trekking fast-dry towels utilizes Polygiene technology. This is a Silver Salt antimicrobial treatment that is extremely safe and effective.  Silver Salt is naturally present  in drinking water and soil, and does not have adverse effects on the environment. This process uses recycled silver…the equivalent of 2 silver rings is used to treat over 5000 towels.  Polygiene is Bluesign approved, the highest standard of safety recognition. These towels are so light and easy to pack that you can fit several in small spaces where even one large beach towel would have a hard time fitting.  We live on a lake so I use a lot of towels.  One thing I hate is if we are on vacation on the beach and we have wet towels that we have to put in the beach bags etc, they get everything wet and smelly.  These Ultra Fast-Dry Towels dry so fast you will not be left with a soggy mess that will fester in the bottom of your beach bag.  Great for camping, swimming, and other activities where you need a fast drying towel and want to pack light.  Available in lots of great colors, check these towels out.

Discovery Trekking Outfitters is sponsoring a giveaway on Mommy Ramblings.  One lucky blog reader will win a medium Ultra Fast-Dry Towel.  Thank you Discovery Trekking Outfitters for the review towel and for sponsoring this awesome giveaway on Mommy Ramblings!!!  Open to US and Canadian residents.

Classic U-Lace Customizing Lacing System Review & Giveaway!!!

I was recently contacted by U-Lace and asked if I wanted to receive some U-Laces and introduce them to my readers.  I love learning about and sharing new products with all of you, so I was game.  U-Laces allow for customization of the lacing of your sneakers.  Read more below about what they are and how they work.

A U-Lace is a modular 2-3/8” segment of elasticized lace made to span a single set of eyelets, providing you with virtually limitless ways to customize and configure the look of your sneakers. The segments possess 250% of stretch. They also are engineered with enough rebound to hold sneakers snugly on the feet.  The idea of U-Lace was born because the creator of the product saw lacing schemes in store windows that were impossible for consumers to recreate at home. He wanted to give the consumer – that means YOU – the ability to custom lace your kicks in millions of quick and easy combinations. U-Lace will work in nearly any sneaker with eyelets as long as the eyelets are at least 1/8” in diameter. Of course some of the sneakers we see today use loops vs. eyelets and U-lace will not work on those. The good news as that at least 90% of sneakers have eyelets. Installing U-Lace in some sneakers is easier than others but it’s still a snap. You simply pick the color you want and push the aglet thru the eyelet and pull from the other side. Once all the way thru the eyelet just give a tug to lock the aglet against the shoe. Repeat until the sneaker is fully laced.

U-Lace is sponsoring a giveaway on Mommy Ramblings.  One lucky blog reader will win 2 colors of their choice or one multi-pack of their choice.  Thank you U-Lace for the review laces and for sponsoring this great giveaway on Mommy Ramblings!!!  Added bonus is that you can use the code GetEmOutTheDoor and take 20% off your order.  Giveaway open to US residents.

The Candy Convertible iPad 2 Case combines the practicality of a flip folio with the soft trendiness of faux nubuck.

Shains Recycled Fashion Accessories Review and Giveaway!!!

 

I was recently sent a variety of Shains accessories to review. These rubber bracelets are very supple, comfy to wear and are easily adjustable. Each of the bracelets came with their own sets of elements which were mostly letters with a few pictures. With the bracelet cuff you have two rows in which to write your message, with so much space It can be fun coming up with things to “write” on it.

Even their hair elastics have an insert for an element! The pet collar is great because it is very adjustable, It fit on my small cat, but would still fit on a bigger cat, or small dog as well. I got some cute little pet related element tiles to accessorize with. The elements were very easy to pop in and out of the holes on the bracelets, and you can switch out the letters to make many different names, phrases and simple words that you might like on a bracelet! You can add picture elements to the bracelets along with your phrases as well,  the possibilities are endless.

Kids will love that they can switch the letters out every day to create a new style or note! Shains products are like the new age of letter bracelets for a young one with interests that change fast! I remember making bracelets when I was about 12 or 13, with the name of a band I liked, but after I lost interest in that band, I was stuck with a bracelet I didn’t want to wear anymore! With Shains I could have just popped the letters out and transformed my old bracelet into a talisman of my new obsession. With these cool bracelets and accessories, you can proudly show your support of a cause and look trendy while doing it!

Shains products are all about recycling. The bracelets and cuffs are made of recycled Thermoplastic Elastomer, a rubber, the elements are made of recycled Acrylonitrile Butadiene styrene, and their packaging is made of recycled papers, bags are polypropylene. Shains accessories are also recyclable when you are done with them! All of their products are tested and passed all US and European safety standards.

The Giveaway:

Shains is graciously sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings! Only lucky blog reader will win a Recycled Cuff with 100 elements!!! Thank you Shains for the fabulous review accessories and awesome giveaway!!!  Open to US residents.

Sound + Sleep Machine By Adaptive Sound Technologies Inc. Review & Giveaway!!!

Get a better night’s sleep, the natural way, with the Ecotones SOUND+SLEEP machine. For roughly the same amount you’d spend for a month’s supply of sleeping medication, SOUND+SLEEP provides high-quality, natural sound compositions to help you relax and treat your body to a night of deep, restorative sleep. Featuring upward-facing speakers for full-room, high-definition sound, SOUND+SLEEP delivers a rich audio experience and automatically adjusts to minimize the effect of background noises and other distractions.

SOUND+SLEEP offers 10 distinct sound profiles that are scientifically engineered to promote relaxation, deeper sleep, and a sense of renewal. Unlike other “white noise” sound machines, SOUND+SLEEP dynamically mixes together lengthy, naturally recorded, high-definition sounds eliminating repetition. The length of the recordings is important, but that is only part of it. SOUND+SLEEP “composes” the Sound Stories on the fly out of a library of high-definition sounds, so that the composition you listen to does not repeat.

Chill out to soothing sounds of the ocean, rain, brook, or a cascading waterfall with one-touch volume control. Or drift off to sleep listening to relaxing meadow, fireplace, city, or train sounds. SOUND+SLEEP also offers white, pink, and brown noise, and a meditation sound profile as other options.

SOUND+SLEEP is the only machine that has Adaptive Sound technology, automatically adjusting to detected background noise for uninterrupted peace and relaxation. This system continuously and automatically “listens” for ambient noise that can disrupt your calm state. Adaptive Sound technology responds to intrusive noises by remixing sound profiles and adjusting the volume to mask the noise without becoming disruptive itself.

SOUND+SLEEP has a compact, sleek design that fits on a bedside chair or table. Operation is easy, day or night, thanks to display lights that can be turned on or off and a four-level sleep timer for gradual turn-off in 30, 60, 90, or 120 minute increments. You can play the unit all night or use the timer. The all-night continuous play option lets you keep the soothing sounds going until you’re ready to get up. Three richness settings control a broad range of additional sounds for optimal sleep conditions.

Our Review:

I recently had the chance to review the SOUND+SLEEP and I was very impressed.  I have seen clocks and other units  with sounds before but they were very repetitive and annoying, like the same bird chirping over and over.  This unit is not like that, the sounds are realistic and definitely not repetitive.  There is a great selection of sounds and they really are very relaxing.  I love the crackling fire, and I know my niece would have just loved the city sounds when she came up to visit because she had a hard time sleeping without the familiar city sounds.  The white noise is great for babies who seem to sleep better and longer when they are hearing it.  It is a nice size and I like that the speaker is on top of the unit because it fills the whole room.  I find it is even relaxing to have it while working in an office and set it to the crackling fire or the babbling brook and it creates a very nice atmosphere to work in.  If you are looking to get a better nights sleep or for something to just put on to relax or meditate, then check out the SOUND+SLEEP.
