Sweet Dreams: Nuby Bedlite Buddies Review {Video Demonstration}

As a brand ambassador for Nuby, I receive free products. The opinions are my own.

The Nuby Bedlite Buddies make excellent companions to assist children in getting to sleep. I found it a little humorous and quite heartwarming seeing my one year old interact with his little buddy. We were both awake and sitting up in the bed. He was playing with my iPad, and I sat there with our newborn hoping he'd soon tire out and hand it over. I handed him his Bedlite Buddy and he set the iPad aside to tend to his little music buddy. I thought it was so sweet that he'd give that kind of attention to a toy and put a game aside.

Encouragement, Frustration, Patience, Success: Potty Training Time Again

As a brand ambassador for Nuby i've received product to facilitate this review.

Having two diapered babies in front of me reminds me of times past. I've been here, done this before. Problem is that diapers are expensive. Since these two don't pee and poop in sync, the diaper changing just seems to go on and on. I decided we'd go ahead and take a shot at potty training our older baby. He's a year and just about eight months, which for me would otherwise be young to start, but he sometimes lets us know when he's pooped in his diaper, which is a good indicator that I can give potty training a shot.

Babies have a way of bringing joy to our lives. Waiting for that first smile and every one after is something I look forward to. They just have a way of lifting me, it seems no matter how down I may be feeling. Then there are the other milestones we look forward to as baby grows and matures; reaching, grabbing, crawling and walking just to name a few.

Dial Kids Body Wash Review and $1000 Sweepstakes Info!!

*I was provided a review sample in exchange for this post. No further compensation was received and the opinions are mine.


One of the first things I did when I received this Dial Body and Hair wash for kids was take a good whiff. Ahh peach. I knew it had to be peach before I read the scent on the label. With a smile, I had a couple of my children who were around smell it as well. One thing we knew from there is that we all agreed that it was pleasant smelling. When I bathed my 1 year old with it, I personally thought it left a nice smell. When he passed by my daughter later in the day, she complimented that his hair smelled good. I proudly remembered that i'd used this Dial Kids body wash during his shower earlier.
