Our friend and favorite independent Usborne consultant Jennifer McLaughlin gifted us three amazing books for my review.

There are so many reasons why I love Usborne books. They are educational, exciting, and engaging books. The illustrations are beautiful and they captured Henry's attention as soon as he opened the cute packaging Jennifer wrapped them in. My husband and I read to Henry everyday and find it so important. Here is a quote that I love by an Usborne book mark "Reading aloud builds a child's "want" to read." That is so true and I love seeing my child's face light up every time we read!
Another reason why I love Usborne books is all their categories on their website! It includes Top Sellers, New Titles, Collections, Age Level, Lift-The-Flap, Activities, Spanish Titles and so much more! When I chose Henry's wishlist I found that the Age Level was my favorite. Those three titles are perfect for toddlers!
Lastly I wanted to talk about the 50% off Replacement Policy for Usborne Books!
Isn't that amazing?! No one else does that!


Now some adorable pictures of my sweet reader! I set up a blanket in our backyard and his new Usbone books and Henry loved it so much!

Suave products have always been my favorites. I hadn't tried their body washes until recently. I purchased my Suave Body washes at one of my favorite places to shop at; Target. I absolutely love every scent and I currently smell like Ocean Breeze. That scent takes me back to all my beach trips to Florida growing up. The California beaches are too cold for me to swim in, I got spoiled living by Florida.
My second favorite scent is Cocoa Butter and Shea creamy body wash. I love how it feels on my skin and it reminds me of a pampering day at the spa. I found my favorite Suave body washes by taking this quiz on their website: Suave Body Wash Quiz
After taking the quiz you will receive a 75 cent rebate with Ibotta to save even more money! If you know me personally you know how much I love to save money and love a good bargain! Plus Suave has the best quality for the price.
Lastly my third favorite scent is the Almond Verbena creamy wash. It feels rejuvenating on my dry summer skin. My legs and whole body feel so soft. For this stay at home mom Suave body washes make me feel pampered and refreshed. I feel more energy and motivation for my busy day with my toddler after taking a shower. There is definitely a scent for every occasion. For date night I would recommend Cocoa Butter and Shea. I also smell amazing all day which my husband loves. Happy wife equals a happy life. I would love to know which scent the quiz chose for you! Let me know in the comments. I cannot wait to try the rest of the scents.

Hello Friends,
We love toys in this house and Henry can play with them for hours. Grapple was sweet to send us one of their red Grapples to review. Our boy adores apples and as soon as I opened it he was so happy! This toy is amazing! I tested it out on our high chair and I could barely get it off. I had to use all my muscles and finally got it off. I wish I had this toy when Henry was in his throwing phase. Henry is almost two and is getting his two year old molars and loves chewing. The Grapple is made with food grade silicone and is strong enough to withstand his teeth. This mama also loves that it's BPA free. You can attach your favorite baby toys to it! The Grapple is the perfect toy to take to your favorite restaurant, for your high chair and your stroller. It's under $20 and the cutest toy to buy for a baby shower!

Thank you to Grapple TM for sending us this toy for our honest review.

Happy almost Fourth of July! It is one of my favorite holidays! What a special day to remember everyone who served, and currently serves for our Country. I also love all the traditions we have with my family. We watch the fireworks at the beach, snuggle together under blankets ( it's cold in California beaches), and then we roast marshmallows and make s'mores. One of my favorite desserts!

Now let's talk about this dress I am wearing?! The Amelia Crochet dress is perfect to wear on the Fourth of July, on a date, to church, or even to change into for a getaway dress after your wedding. It is so beautiful and the details are amazing. The crochet is the perfect touch to the dress! I love the fit of the dress, and it is not see through. I am wearing a small/medium but if you want a looser fit the medium/large would also work! You need to add this staple in your closet! it's modest, classy and will never go out of style. I paired the Amelia Crochet dress with their tan platform sandal for a dressy look. Those sandals are so comfortable and give me an added boost. I am a petite mom at 5'3 and half and I love platforms! You also need to check out all the new arrivals at My Sister's Closet Boutique before they sell out!
