Have your tried "Huggies Little Movers"?

Have you tried Huggies new slip on diapers?  I was so excited to try out these new diapers.  I went to the Huggies website to see "which type of squarmy baby" I have.  You can check out Huggies website to see what squirmy baby you have too.  Well,  I have what their website calls the "Wee Whirligig" it says that he spins, twirls and moves his bottom any way that he can so that he does not have to have his diaper changed.  Yep, they are right that is exactly what Little Man does at each diaper change.

When you chick on the squirmy name generator not only can you see what type of squirmy baby you have but you can also print a coupon for $2.00 off any one package of Huggies little movers Slip-On diapers.   I printed my coupon and purchased my box of Huggies Little Movers Slip-on Diapers.

Here is what Little Man and I thought of  Huggies Little Movers Slip-on Diapers.
The diapers are easy to slip on and easy to slip off too.  If you desire to have them lay down for a change they do have tabs on the sides to remove the diaper.   The   Huggies Little Movers Slip-on Diapers also have the leak lock system that keeps the diaper free from leaks. They also move with him, which is important too.

 Little Man loves his new "big kid" underwear.  I like them because it make it so much easier to change his diaper.  All I have to do it catch him, slip the old one off and the new one on.  It is so easy for me to do.

Purex UltraPacks review

A few years ago I visiting my sister and her new husband.  I had no clean clothes, and needed to do laundry.  I asked her if I could do my laundry while she was at work, and she said "sure". She showed me where the laundray detergent was located and she left for work.  I seprated my clothes, put them into the washer,  added the right amount of laundry detergent, and turned on the washer machine.  About 20 minuits later, I heard a loud thud.  I ran to the laundry room to see what made the noise.  I had left the laundry detergent on top of the washer and when it started to spin, the bottle of liquid detergent had fallen off and spilled all over the carpet.  I was mortified and unsure how to clean up the mess.  Every time I tried to clean up the liquid detergent with water, bubbles formed.  It took me so almost five hours to clean up the mess.  I am not even sure if I ever told my sister about this, and I don't remember how I explained why I used so much laundry detergent.

Purex came up with the perfect solution for people like me,Purex® UltraPacks™.  I only wish they had come up with this product before I visited my sister. (LOL)

So what are Purex® UltraPacks™?

 New Purex UltraPacks are pre-dosed liquid detergent packets containing powerful 2x concentrated liquid detergent.  These little packs are full of Purex's powerful Triple Action liquid formula. The new and improved Triple Action formula delivers even better on Purex’s promise to leave your clothes bright, white, and clean. My white clothes are whiter, my colored clothes are more vibrant, and I don't have stains left on my clothes. It’s Laundry Simplified.®

 

Purex UltraPacks can dissolve quickly in hot, warm or cold water making them ideal for all types of laundry.Purex UltraPacks are also formulated and safe for all machines, including high-efficiency (HE).

I think Purex UltraPacks  are going to revolunize the way we do laundry.  Now I do not have to worry about spilling my liquid detergent.  There is also no messy drip of liquid detergent dripping down the bottle making a mess on my cabinets. No more measuring or spilling.  Now all you have to do is just drop the little packet into the washer and push start (see direction on package).  Our family loves anything that will save us time and money, and Ultra Packs do both.  I have changed the way I do laundry, and you can too.

 Coming soon in mid February, Purex will be offering a FREE sample of Purex UltraPacks.  I will let you know when, in a future post.

Giveaway of Jockey sports bra and Purex Crystals

In my last blog I told you I am trying to get into shape by fast pace walking every day.  There is one thing that you should have to be a good fast pace walker, a comfortable sport's bra.  I know we don't like to talk about our unmentionables, that why they are called unmentionables.  But ladies, lets be honest, we need some support.  Not having the right sport bra fit can be uncomfortable and can lead to serious back problems.  Not all Sport bras are created equal. So how do you know which sport bra to buy?  First you much find a brand that you can trust and one that has stood the test of time.

Jockey has been a trusted brand for men, women and children for many years.  Now they have come out the a Tech Terry Performance Sports Bra.  There are many benefits to Tech Terry Performance Sports Bra.  One of it benefits is it has a moisture-wicking to helps keep you cool and dry.  It  also has a soft bottom band for comfortable support and a breathable mesh panel .  There is even a convenient key pocket, to hide your keys during your workouts.

Me, fast pace walking in my Jockey sports bra.

  I was selected to try Jockey®’s sports bra  Tech Terry Performance Sports Bra in black.  When I first tried it on, I thought it was a little to tight, but at least it kept everything in its place.  I would recommend make sure you order a size larger, they seem to run small.   Other than that, I cannot imagine running anywhere with out my Jockey Tech Terry Performance Sports Bra.  It soaked up all my sweat and left me feeling dry and cool.

After you where your sports bra, you have to wash it, but washing it can be damaging to the fabric.   If you wash your sports bra in regular liquid softeners that use oils to soften it can harms the bra’s moisture wicking ability.  I use Purex Crystals, they are 92% natural crystals that infuse long-lasting freshness into the fabric fibers of clothing – without harming garments (like liquid softener products that use oils to soften).

Additionally, Purex Crystals work to create a continuous long-lasting freshness, eliminating that all-too-common odor that gets embedded in workout clothing.  I also love the smell of their new Purex Crystals tropical splash scent; it leaves my clothes smelling like tropical bliss for weeks .  Purex Crystals come with a measuring cup and you add the crystals directly to the drum at the begining of the cycle so you don't have to wait until you hear the rinse cycle (see direction).  It is so easy to do, Little Man can help me.

Now what you have been waiting for...

It's a New year and I am losing weight?

So it's a new year, 2012, and now it is finally time for me to lose weight.  I know it's such a cliche to say you want to lose weight at the begining of a new year.  I am not making a "new years resolution", that is just not for me.  I guess it is just having a blog with photographs makes it really hard to not see the weight creeping up on me.

This is me 6 months ago trying to workout with Little Man.
I have gained some weight since then.

It is a little sad when your "fat" jeans are getting too tight to button.  I just don't have the heart to ask my hubby if we can budget in a shopping spree for me to get some new clothes that fit, because I cannot seem to control myself when it come to food.  It is so embarrassing to admit.

Now this is a photo taken of me yesterday.  Yes, my work out clothes are a little tight too, but I have to start somewhere.  

I wish I knew someone that lived close to where I live and was in the same situation as me.  I would love to have a friend that could keep me accountable; but since we live in the country, I am going to use my other blogs to hold myself accountable. ( my other blog: http://nowamomof3islosingweight.blogspot.com/)

If there is anyone out there that would like to be my cyber-walking-buddy?  click here.

What is one way you make sure you get a workout everyday?

Purex Triple Action Laundry Detergent: Review

As a wife and mom of three kids, laundry can be an all consuming task.  I feel like we are always doing laundry.  I sometimes feel like the piles and piles of laundry never end.   I have tried many different brand of laundry detergent, but only one fits our family and budget, Purex.  Purex is affordable; nearly half the price of other leading brands. Purex is a great product at a great value and switching to Purex as really lighten the load of our budget (no pun intended).

I switched to Purex laundry detergent almost a year ago, and could not be happier. As a purex insider, I receive a bottle of Purex Triple Action to try.   As a avid Purex brand user, it was no suprise that Purex Triple Action leaves my clothes white, bright and clean. 

The new and improved Triple Action formula delivers even better on Purex’s promise to leave your clothes bright, white, and clean.   With my two youngest spilling; either on me or on themselves, it can be hard to find a laundry detergent that will get rid of all different stains. The new Purex Triple Action leverages the best parts of there current formula, combined with new additions, to deliver great cleaning plus improved brightening power.  My white clothes are whiter, my colored clothes are more vibrant, and I don't have stains left on my clothes.

Just like all of Purex’s current detergents their new Triple Action has been formulated to work in both traditional and High Efficiency (HE) washers. Purex will work with both top and side loading washer machines.

Since my family has sentive skin we chose Pure Triple Action Free and Clear.  Purex free and clear has a fresh clean scent without the heavy perfume smell because it contains no perfumes or dyes.  It is ideal for people with sentitive skin.  I like Purex free and clear l because it leaves my laundry smelling fresh and clean. 

 I hightly reconment making the switch to Purex laundry detergent.  I know my family and I are glad we made the switch.
