Graze Box Review

So there is a new subscription box called the Graze box.  It's meant to let you "graze" your way through healthy snacks.  The first box is free and then it is $5.00 per week after that.  You get one box a week with 4 little snacks in it.

When you open the box!  Super cute!

They send 4 little snacks a week.  This weeks picks were tutti frutti, Olive and Rosemary Bruschetta,
Mississippi BBQ Pistachios and Chocolate Orange Granola.
You can go to your profile and pick and choose the kind of snacks you want to receive.

The open box when it was empty!  It is SUCH a cute box!  I love it!

The box cost $5.00.
So far the snacks have been pretty good, but I don't think I will continue the supscription.

Bluum Baby Box Review (January)

We have been subscribing to Bluum Baby for about 6 months now.  :)  Some of the boxes have been FANTASTIC!  Some not so much.  But I guess that is what happens when you subscribe to monthly boxes, right? 

In the past they have had smaller boxes with "deluxe" samples and 1 or 2 full size items in each box.  Now (as of February) they have moved up to bigger boxes with more full sized items in it.  I will review our February box when we get it.  :)  But...  (there is always a but!) now the price has gone up!  I believe it was about $15 a box, and now it's gone up to $25 a box!  So that is a little draw back...  I liked getting the box for $15 because it was a cheaper little fun box to get.  :)

So anyways, lets get to the goodies!  :)

This is the small box that they have been using.  :)

This is what the "Tummy Time" box looked like when we opened it. 
The little note that they include in the box.  It's all about tummy time and how important it is.  This is the 4 month old box.


First item out of the box.  A keep-it-kleen binky!  Jack has one of these already and doesn't really like it... 
But it will make a good regift!  :)

Next out was the Triple Paste medicated ointment for diaper rash.  We have used this in the past and it's awesome! 
Excited for a full sized bottle!

Next was and Angel Dear monkey stick rattle.  Jack liked this!  :)  Plus there is a 20% off coupon code with it.

And last but totally not least, Honest Wipes!  I have been REALLY WANTING to try these wipes and
am SUPER excited to recieve these!  :) :) :)  Can't wait to use them!

Total box worth: $18.08 
Over all this box was a good box.  I am excited about the wipes and Jack liked the rattle.  :)

February Ecocentric Mom Baby Box (Review)

This is my first review of an Ecocentric Mom Baby Box!  February is our first box.  And let me tell you, so far it's a great experience!

This is the box that all the goodies came in! 


This is what the box looked like when you opened it... Sorry that it's sideways! I can't get it to turn! :/
 

Inside there were 2 cards with descriptions on them...  One with all of the items in the box, the other was a little card about eco-living.
 
First out were these dish soaps!  5 samples of Life Tree Citrus Dish Soap!  All in a cute little bag.  I am sort of obsessed with natural/organic dish soap, mush to the dismay of Rick, so I am really excited about this!
www.lotusbrandsmall.com

Out next were these lotion samples for baby.  Lafes Natural Baby Lotion.  They look cool....  But I tend to not use lotion on the littles....  :/  But cool to give as a gift!  www.lafes.com

Now THIS is something that I am really excited about trying!  IN LOVE With Bodycare Baby Love Soothing Salve!  I am crazy about diaper rash creams...  And this one looks GREAT!  I can't wait to try it out on the littles tush!  :)
www.inlovewithbodycare.com

Next was an Athena Greek Yogurt Bar in blueberry.  I am not so into "bars", but I think Rick will enjoy this!
www.myathenabar.com

Now comes 2 gift cards! 
A $20.00 one to Blue Green Organix.  I am not so into this...  So I don't think I will be using it.
www.bluegreenorganix.com
And one from Ringley for $10.00.  I might have ordered from this company....  But not interested in ordering right now.
www.ringley.ca
So I will not be using either gift card from this box.  :/
This is a little Goulibeur French Shortbread.  It's really cute and looks yummy....  But I think Eli will steal it before I get it! :)
www.bretongourmet.com
 
Next out was Green Alligator Bubble Bath!  This will be used right away!  The littles LOVE bubbles in their bath so this was a great item!!  :) :)
www.celadonroad.com
 
This was another AWESOME item...  So awesome that little used it right away and now it's MIA!  lol.
 It's a Family Bedrock Siliconies Diamond Bangle.  We got one in yellow and Jack has been chewing on it NON-STOP!  Love it!!!
www.familybedrock.com
 

In total the whole box (including gift cards) was worth: $86.33
I paid: $21 for the whole box!

Overall, it was totally worth it!  We will really enjoy the chew bangle, the rash cream and the bubble bath!  I am very impressed with this box so far and can't wait till next month!  :)

Valentine's Day craft time!

This Valentine's Day we decided to Pintrest-it-up and make a cute craft!  :)

From the bottom of my heart,
to the tips of my toes,
I Love You!

The pink that Eli wanted to use didn't really show up on the red paper, but you can still see his feet prints.  Jack loved having his feet painted!  :)
