Painting!


Emily got a new set of paints, paper, and other artsy things for her birthday this year. They have had a blast! 


Emily likes to paint a lot of flowers and rainbows lately. 


Ethan looked like he was painting a bunch of squiggles but he told me they were whales. He's been really into whales lately?

Review and Giveaway: Dial Kids Body Wash


This is probably my favorite promotion from Purex Insiders so far, new Dial Kids Body and Hair Wash! 

I reviewed the versions for 2+ and 6+ and they were both great. 


Peachy Clean is for ages 2+ and it smells amazing, amazing enough that I would actually use it myself! Ethan really likes it and calls it the whale soap because it has a little whale on it.

Watery Melon and Berry Cool are for ages 6+. We reviewed Watery Melon. I really like how gentle these body washes are. They get the kids clean and moisturize their skin. It works really well on Emily's hair too, it leaves it very soft and smells sweet.

Dial Kids Body Wash is tear free, hypoallergenic, no artificial dyes or added parabens, and it's Ph balanced.

I would highly recommend these body washes for kids. They are definitely worth the money, and I'm giving away FOUR coupons for a free bottle! Enter below :) Ends 4/24

The Dial brand provided me with a sample of Dial Kids Body and Hair Wash in exchange for a product review. However, all of the opinions expressed here are my own.

Potty Training... Again.


I have been trying to work on potty training with Ethan for a few months now. A few times we've come close but then he loses interest or downright refuses to go. 

Tuesday I overheard the kids talking about playing soccer. I took them to the park a few weeks ago with a new soccer ball... they have been hooked ever since. EVERYTHING is about soccer! I told Emily that we would try to get her on a team this year and Ethan got jealous. He wanted to play soccer "like a big boy".

Hmmm....


We worked a deal. I told him that he can't go to school or play soccer like a big boy unless he stops wearing diapers. He said 'okay' and showed me his awesome kick for the rest of the night.

My game plan this time around is to stick with a chart (he has been talking about his new soccer chart a lot) and mostly use stickers. One sticker for #1 and two for #2. Pretty simple, right?

Instead of giving him candy or something else for every little tinkle, he gets to choose a prize from the reward jar for every 5 stickers.


(Stay tuned for another post about what goes in the reward jar and exactly how rewards are given out)

So far, he has been doing better than before but our schedule has been hectic. It's really hard to potty train when you aren't home at all during the day. I'm planning to go at it again the next week I have him, and hopefully at that point I can keep him focused better. I'm ready to get this over with ;)


What are YOUR potty training tips?
