Reebok ZQuick Electrify Sneakers Review

I am not a girly girl.  I do not own 600 pairs of shoes (I think I own 6!!) Don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't want to be girly, it just costs a lot of money, and I rather spend my money on my kids.  You know how it is, Mommy always comes last (which is fine by me!!) 

One thing I do make sure I get myself is a really good pair of sneakers.  I wear sneakers ALL the time (chasing two kids,) so I need shoes that are comfy, and will withstand all the abuse I put them through (Trips to Disney!!)

I used to buy discount sneakers (you know the ones that cost $10.)  They may be cheap in price, but they are also cheap in quality.  I would be lucky if I got a couple months out of them.  I once bought a pair and the first time I wore them, I broke the heal end.  My sneakers were flapping in the breeze!!!

Over the last handful of years, I have been getting myself Reeboks.  They have some awesome styles, and the shoes last!!  This is a picture of sneakers I have had for two years now.  They are just like new (except for the dirt,) and it's two years later after a lot of use, and three Disney trips!!  You can see the original review here.  

This year I got to try the ZQuick Electrify sneakers.  I switched it up color wise and got myself some pretty cool electric blue/green ones!!!

Inspired by Z-Rated tires, this running shoe's unique geometry and midsole foam deliver sports car handling for your feet, while the evolved NanoWeb upper technology makes sure you're buckled up tight for a breathable and breathtaking ride.

No-sew upper and bootie fit system for comfort with NanoWeb tech for locked-in support

Low-cut for mobility with Injection molded EVA midsole for lightweight cushioning

Inspired by sports car tires, the Z-rated midsole geometry is designed for improved handling and traction

Gas fueled Carbonated Foam for a light, cushioned and responsive ride

Underfoot grooves let the midsole to flex and expand for extra ground contact and a smooth ride


CRTek rubber only in high wear areas for lightweight durability

These sneakers are extremely comfortable, breath easily, and actually make me want to run!!  I was at my sons school the other day for 3 hours of non stop standing.  No pain!!!  

The padding in the bottom gives your feet much needed support, and even the tops of the sneakers inside are soft and comfortable.

Reebok sneakers are made from quality materials, and as I showed above, are meant to last!!

Right now almost everything at Reebok.com is 30% off, including these beauties!!  Perfect time to get yourself, or others a long lasting treat!!

Belli Skin Care Review And ~~Giveaway~~

Belli ® delivers trusted skin care solutions that pamper and protect without known harmful chemicals so you can expect beautiful skin and enjoy peace of mind during any stage of your life: pregnancy, motherhood and beyond.

Belli Skicnare is a company that obsesses more than most about the purity and safety of its ingredient.  Belli’s facial and body care products were originally formulated for expecting or nursing mothers, so they undergo intensive screening to make sure no ingredients have any links whatsoever to birth defects or other problems of pregnancy.   Naturally that also makes them great for anyone who prizes peace-of-mind and glowing, healthy skin.  Every ingredient in every Belli product is teratology screened, or studied for even the remotest links to problems of pregnancy or birth defects.  All of the products are also allergy tested, free of parabens, BPA, phthalates and artificial dyes.  And new tubes and airless pumps are also BPA and phthalate-free.   Bellis is the purist’s purist, and that’s great news for anyone who likes to know exactly what ingredients their skin may absorb.   Belli proves that pure luxury can exist in skin care;  the products are as pampering and delightful to use as they are safe and effective.   The company offers facial and body moisturizing products, acne-fighting products and more, cleansers, exfoliators and more, all with purity and efficacy as their foundation.   To see the selection, please visit www.belliskincare.com,

Being a mother of two boys, my poor body has gone through a lot.  Both of my boys were premature, and I had and still have a ton of medical issues because of my pregnancies.

Even though I am old, I still have teenage issues like acne if I use certain products.  My skin just does not like certain chemicals.

Belli skincare sent me their Pure & Pampered Body Wash and All Day Moisture Body Lotion to try.  I was very excited to give these a try.  Belli's products are allergy free, and dermatologist tested, so I was hoping they could help me.

I have used both for a couple weeks, and am very happy with the results.  First they both smell terrific.  I was afraid they would have a more medicinal scent to them, but no, the Body Wash smells like Lavender (one of my favorite scents) and the Body lotion smells like Lemon!!  

Since I have been using the body wash, I have not had any breakouts!!  My skin is soft, and feels clean (which to me is the most important part)

The body lotion has been a huge blessing too.  This time of year my hands are now winterized (dry, cracked and very painful.)  Using the Body Lotion has cut that down by more then 1/2 of what it was last year at this time!!  That is a huge relief for me!!  

Belli carries a wide variety of products for all women from pregnancy to old age like me!!  Their products would make terrific gifts for any women on your shopping list!!

Right now they have a terrific promotion going on where you buy 3 get 1 free!!  Just use promo code: Buy3Get1

How would you like to win some products??  The good folks at Belli are giving one lucky reader a bottle of Pure & Pampered Body Wash and All Day Moisture Body Lotion!!

Smithsonian Young Explorer And Discover Products Review And ~~Giveaway~~

**All opinions expressed are 100% my own.  I was not compensated for this post.  I was given the below items for review.**

Now that my boys are getting older, they are more interested in how things work, and all things Science.  I feel really silly when they ask me questions that I can't remember the answer too.  I have been out of school for a long time!!

If your kids are as inquisitive as mine, then I have just the thing.

Smithsonian Discover: Space-

Take a spectacular journey into the farthest reaches of space with the Smithsonian. This engaging and informative guide to the galaxy, the planets, and the universe brings the incredible experience of a visit to the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum into the pages of a fun and fantastic book. Smithsonian Discover: Space is organized as a virtual trip through outer space, starting at the edges of the expanding universe, continuing into the spiral Milky Way galaxy, then arriving in our solar system to explore each planet in turn.


And when kids are done gallivanting around the galaxy, there are 12 solar system fact cards, a large double-sided poster, and glow-in-the-dark stars and planets to turn their rooms into a sparkling space scene. So get ready—the Smithsonian is about to take you out of this world to discover the spectacular science of the universe!

This is a book packed with fun!! Included is a ton of information about the Universe, Solar System and Space Exploration, with fun stickers, posters, and fact cards to help with a more visual approach to learning.  

My boys love that the stickers are glow in the dark.  Now they can see all the stars day and night!!

If your children love airplanes, Smithsonian Discover: Flight, is a great book packed with everything about flight.  The history of how we started flying, to some of the newest technology behind being in the sky!!

Smithsonian Discover: Flight brings the awe-inspiring experience of the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum right into the pages of a book. This authoritative guide to the history and science of flight answers all the questions that kids will ask (and that parents may not be able to answer), like “What makes a plane stay in the air?” “What’s a sonic boom?” and “How do astronauts go to the bathroom in space?” Arranged into three sections, Balloons in the Air, Machines in the Sky, and Starships in Space, Smithsonian Discover: Flight chronicles the history and evolution of flight in way meant to inspire future aviators and astronauts.

This unique title also delivers hands-on activities like you would find at the Smithsonian. Bound right into the book are 12 fact cards on the coolest aircraft, a large double-sided poster, and 9 paper airplanes in three designs (a historic glider, a military jet, and a space shuttle) with easy-to-follow folding instructions. Altogether, Smithsonian Discover: Flight offers kids a chance to take off on a trip to the Smithsonian without ever leaving their seats.


You can learn all about Hot Air Balloons, to Airplanes, to even ships that take you to the stars.  The book also comes with a poster, 12 fact cards, and 9 fun to make paper airplanes!!  We copied the designs on separate paper, so the boys can make them over and over again!!

Both books are full of vibrant colors, are great reference manuals, and are perfect for those little learning minds!!

If your children love puzzles, here are two that we really enjoy.

Young Explorers Oceans-

Get ready to go under the sea with the Smithsonian—and experience life beneath the waves. Smithsonian Young Explorers: Oceans provides the perfect introduction for kids 6 and up to our undiscovered underwater world. The lively and fun fact book covers the science of ocean movement, pollution, and fascinating facts on marine life. From profiles on the Pacific, to waves and tsunamis, kids will love to learn about the basics of the ocean.

And of course, all the cutest sea creatures (sea otters and dolphins!) and the fiercest (great white sharks and poisonous jellyfish!) and all their ocean friends are covered in detail for young ocean explorers.

Once young explorers get their feet wet in the world’s oceans, they can continue their education by assembling the included floor puzzle of colorful marine life. The puzzle and poster give kids extra opportunities to learn about the ocean and engage them in the sciences. And once kids are ready to dive in headfirst, the book, puzzle, and map all tuck neatly into a snap-shut suitcase, ready to embark on a journey on the high seas.

130 piece puzzle set with a beautiful ocean scene.  Sharks, Dolphins, Nemo!!  The puzzle comes in a sturdy case with a handle, and a 32 page fact book with information about our oceans, how waves work, and all sorts of sea creatures.  While the kids have fun with building the puzzle, they are also learning!!

You can also check out the Young Explorers Dinosaurs puzzle.  

Get ready to go back in time with the Smithsonian—and experience life among the dinosaurs. Smithsonian Young Explorers: Dinosaurs provides the perfect introduction for kids 6 and up to the fascinating world of dinosaurs. The playful and informative fact book teaches kids how we learn about dinosaurs, how they are classified, and which dinosaurs ruled the land millions of years ago. Read about the mighty T. rex and the chicken-sized Compsognathus. Learn how scientists solved the mystery of the plates of the Stegosaurus. And find out which animals descended from dinosaurs surround us today.

Once young explorers have become paleontologists-in-training, they can continue their education by assembling the included dinosaur floor puzzle. The colorful puzzle and poster give kids extra opportunities to learn about the different dinosaurs and engage them in the sciences. And once kids are ready to go on the hunt for their own dinosaur bones, the book, puzzle, and map all tuck neatly into a snap-shut suitcase, ready to uncover the new greatest dinosaur that ever lived.

Another fun colorful picture to build, with some pretty cool looking dinosaurs!!  The T-Rex and pterodactyls are Ben Jr's favorite dinosaurs, and they are center stage in this puzzle.  It comes with the hard case with handle, and a 32 page fact book all about dinosaurs.  This is sure to be a ton of fun for your little dinosaur lovers!!

Smithsonian has lots of other fun books, puzzles and even model sets, to help kids learn while they have fun!!  

I am very happy to give away all four items above (two books, and two puzzles) to one lucky reader, thanks to Smithsonian and Silver Dolphin Books.

Enter below using the rafflecopter form, and good luck!!

HICKIES is a no-tie shoelace replacement, designed for an active lifestyle.

Whether you are simply looking to upgrade your sneakers or looking to add some more pop to your workout outfits, they offer an unbeatable combination of fit, function and fashion.

Stance Festive Socks

We made a list and checked it twice to make sure the Holiday Holwup was as totally tacky as the sweaters that inspired it. On top of our signature buttery soft combed cotton we piled on the presents: red lurex ornaments are knit right in to put some jingle in your jaunt. It’s the gift that keeps on giving. 

Sip your way to a healthy baby with all natural, delicious Bump Water.

Healthy babies start with healthy women. Before you even have a baby in your arms or a bump in your belly, folic acid works hard to give your baby the best start possible. Getting enough folic acid is critical to healthy development and this bottle-for-your-bump is full of it. So take a sip and a big sigh of relief; we’ve got your folic acid—and a bunch of other baby-nourishing vitamins—covered.

Skullcandy Crusher Headphones Review

**All opinions expressed are 100% my own.  I was not compensated for this post.  I was given a pair of headphones for review purposes.**

With the Holiday's here, travel will soon be in full swing  Everyone is gathering their must haves to make that journey to Grandma's!!  In this house, when we travel long distances, we need headphones.  Both boys can then listen to the TV's in the car, and I (the driver) don't have too!!    I prefer listening to the radio, and all the Christmas music!!  I am not a big fan of just listening to a movie, I rather be watching it too!!

I was offered a chance to review Skullcandys Crusher headphones.  These headphones boast that they sound just like you are at a concert.  Well I just had to try that theory out!!

Crusher brings the sound and feeling that you get from sitting front row at a concert. The headphone’s design features a slider to control the bass and customize your music. Dual ear cup articulation and premium materials deliver long-lasting comfort.  The Skullcandy Crusher headphones supply amazing, rich sound to keep travelers entertained for hours and fold up tight for easy storage

OK, first and foremost I have to say, that oh my word yes, you hear things as clear as if you are at a live concert!!  The sound quality is just plain amazing!!  

I also love, love, love the fact that the headphones collapse, for easy carrying around.  

I really can not express how awesome these headphones are!!  You truly have to experience them for yourself to feel not just hear the music!!  It actually radiates through your whole body.  I listened to the Tran Siberian Orchestra Christmas Eve Sarajevo and wow.  That song is powerful on it's own, but with the head phones, wow.  Just plain wow!!!

Originally I was going to give these to Ben Jr for Xmas, but I think I may just keep them for myself!!
