The Good Ole Frozen Grape

Tiny LOVES frozen peas, yes frozen. STRAIGHT-OUT-OF-THE-BAG-IN-HIS-MOUTH FROZEN! Tiny also loves grapes so I was thinking he would like them frozen but the grapes were NOT bite size so I decided to cut them up THEN freeze them!! HUGE HIT, Tiny and I BOTH love them!!!!! It is our new favorite treat and great to do with grapes when it is almost time to throw them out.
Don't forget to label the ziplock with the date!

A Bakers Dozen


Well, I have to admit I was THRILLED to find out that a Bakers Dozen is 13! Yes, THANK you McDonald's for teaching me something new!!! On my cheat day, we went to get a burger and when I was ordering I saw their new promotion for their fresh baked cookies! I thought I would get a couple. When I was ordering I discovered I could get a Bakers Dozen (13) for $3.99. UMMMM $3.99 YES PLEASE. Ok these are awesome. The Hubs is NOT a big McD's fan but he had to admit (4 cookies later) that the cookies were a-ma-zing! Tiny has had his hand in the cookie box 1 to many times, they are ALL gone!!! I hear I need to try their oatmeal. I will keep yall posted. Alright, head to McDonald's Drive Thru and get yourself a cute box of their yummy chocolate chip cookies!!! Y-U-M!

AVA the Elephant

{picture via Ava the Elephant website}


Ava the Elephant is our new BFF! I was sent this darling medicine dispenser to test and review and we are in LOVE. You can find miss Ava at your local CVS for about $10. She is AWESOME. Tiny loves to play with her even when it is NOT medicine time!


How does she work you ask? SO easy!


-Fill the dropper with the amount of meds your darling needs

-Place the dropper it the "trunk" of Ava

-Press the button
-Ava will say "1, 2, 3 Open Wide! Good Job!"
-Place her trunk in your darlings mouth

-Squeeze the dropper top
-All DONE!!!
***When using her for the 1st time before placing the medicine dropper in the trunk let your darling "play" with Ava so he will understand what she does!

Yall, this is such a neat item and is now a MUST have in our medicine cabinet!! When Tiny sees her he yells, "1,2,3 GOOD JOB!" it is SO cute!!! So head to your local CVS and pick one up today!

Miss Ava makes medicine time so fun and SO easy!

A School Art Tip

Are you tired of all the papers that are sent home from school? I AM, and Tiny does NOT like me to throw anything away but we HAVE too! Not sure what show I saw this on BUT I LOVE this idea. TAKE A PICTURE of your muffins work, then print the photos and put them in a picture album for that year! Cool huh?

A FUN Sippy Bottle!

I found these FUN Tummy Tickler sippy juice bottles at HEB for about $2.00. They have different fun tops. We got the Thomas the Tr@in and B@b the Builder! BUT they have all sorts of good characters! I thought these would be fun for a play date or even party favors. On Tuesdays I try to always take James a "treat" Mommy guilt when I pick him up from Mother's Day Out and he gets WAY excited when he sees a new sippy bottle on in his chair! The cool part is that you can take the figure off the top and wash it ALL (on the top shelf)and reuse this FUN sippy bottle.
*The juice is NOT that great so now I just pour it out and fill it with something else.
Alright, head on out and grab these cute Tummy Tickler sippy bottles from HEB or other store that carry them! Happy Tuesday!

Finger Paint!


Tiny NOW loves to finger paint!!! The 1st time we tried it he was NOT a fan because it was messy! He still does not like the mess but starting to enjoy it! He will start with one finger to warm up then all of them and has a BLAST. He just yells, "Paint, Paint, Paint" or "Bluuuuuuuee"!

I am in LOVE with the Crayola new finger paint. It NOW comes in cool squirt containers and washes up great! I found ours at Target for about $5.00. It is SO fun and with this heat it is a wonderful INDOOR activity!

For the Lunch Box


I still have a VERY picky eater on my hands SO thinking about lunches for MDO is STRESSING me out! Weeks leading up to MDO we will be testing out items to put in his lunch besides, hot dogs, corn dogs, and grilled cheese, the ONLY foods I know he will eat! Healthy huh????

I want to send yogurt and cheese BUT concerned about the MESS and he will not eat cheese unless it is melted or mixed in eggs.
SO, what to do???
I came across Dan-o-nino the Dairy Snack! James LOVES them! They are little and thick and he is able feed himself and NOT make much of a mess!!! Dan-o-ninos have 2Xs the calcium of milk and Vitamin D!
The Dan-o-nino's WILL be in his MDO lunch and my NEW Mommies Favorite Find!! Yippee!

Any ideas for picky eaters let me know!

THE Time Out Stool

I decided to make Tiny his own cute Time Out Stool.Yall this WORKS! We have used it twice tonight with a timer set for 1 minute (a minute for how old) and he sat there, not so happy, but he did it. I am thinking about making them for Tiny Bit More, we will see! I bought the stool at Target for about $15.00 and painted it during nap time! Let me know if you think people would buy it!

Sitting in Time Out

This is NOT fun anymore!

Tadoodles Crayon Buddies

Tiny thinks these are the coolest toys EVER! We are now doing craft time once a day and these are just perfect for his little hands that HATES to get messy!! He will sit and color for about 15min, smile and concentrate the entire time!! It is SO cute. Crayola is so awesome! You can find these in most stores for about $7.00




***Craft tips***
1.Tape the paper down to the table
2.Wet Wipe clean up the stray marks in a jiffy!
3.Because we are crafting daily, I keep all his crayons, stamps, paper, tape, etc. in a CUTE bowl in the center of the table. This also reminds me to do craft time.

For my Non Milk Drinker!

The dr. to me today that Tiny is too Tiny and needs MORE milk. I tried to explain that he HATES milk. My dad told me to go get him some Horizon Vanilla Milk. And what do ya know he LOVES it. And of course my Child would only like the milk that is $1 (on sale) for 1 milk box worth! But hey maybe this will help him put on some weight!

I am thinking Horizon needs to hire him for a milk campaign. He is pretty cute if I do say so my self!
