Nuby IcyBite Teether Review

Picture of IcyBite™ Teether
The Nuby IcyBite Teether is filled with a special PurICE gel that actually stays longer colder than other teethers that are filled with water. This teether is designed to be placed in the refridgerator and than offered to baby. Channing loved the coldness of this teether against his gums.


This teether has multiple textures on the surface and is offered in several different colors.


Channing was able to hold onto this teether but not quite as well as the Nuby Silicone Teether! I wish that Nuby offered this item in a handy reusable case (similar to the Nuby Silicone Teether). I don't like the idea of sitting it in the refrigerator and then handing it to baby. I tried to fit this teether in the Nuby Silicone Teether case but it was slightly too big!
(Filled with PurICE Gel)

Nuby Jiggle Giggle Teether Review




The Nuby Jiggle Giggle™ vibrating teether is an absolutley adorable teether. The back end of this teether vibrates as baby chomps down on the end of it. This feature is designed to help increase the circulation in baby's gums which can reduce the swelling and relieve sore gums. This teether also has other surfaces that have multiple textures that soothe baby's gums.
Jiggle Giggle Vibrating Teether
The design is easy to hold but is slightly heavier than some of the other teethers that we have for Channing. At first, Channing wasn't able to bite down hard enough to make the end of the teether vibrate. He quickly learned that with the right amount of pressure he could make the teether vibrate by himself! This teether is made of bright colors and is BPA free. I love that the battery can be replaced easily on the back of this teether.

Head over to Kohls.com to purchase one for you baby!

Nuby Silicone Teether Review!

Picture of Silicone Teether

The Nuby Silicone Teether comes in several different fun shapes and pastel colors. This teether is BPA free and is gentle on babies sore gums. Channing also really likes this teether. It is easy for him to hold on to and you can tell that it really relives those terribly sore gums of his. Of all of the teethers we have for Channing, this is defiantly the softest and most flexible one which makes me think that it is easy on the gums for those babies in the early stages of teething. It has many different textures for baby to explore.

(Channing enjoying his Nuby Silicone Teether!)


I LOVE that this teether comes with a handy case to keep it nice and clean in between uses.

The Nuby Silicone Teether can be purchased from  BuyBabyDirect.com for 5.99
This teether can also be found at Walmart, Target, Babies R Us, Amazon.com & Diapers.com

Dr. Seuss' The Lorax REVIEW!

Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax on DVD

AUGUST 7th 2012

Plus Get Three Never-Before-Seen Mini Movies Available only on

DR. SEUSS’ THE LORAX will arrive on Blu-ray™ 3D Combo Pack and Blu-ray™ Combo Pack
 (both sets featuring DVD, Digital Copy and UltraViolet™)
on August 7, 2012 from Universal Studios Home Entertainment


 Recently I was sent a copy of The Lorax DVD for the purpose of this review. My husband and I were very excited to watch this movie because it had been a childhood favorite of ours and my husband is in the tree business so this movie is right up his alley.

The Lorax is an adorable movie that has a great story behind all of the fantastic graphics and fun colors. The story is based around a young boy who is willing to do anything to win over the love of his crush. In order to win her over, he goes on a journey and is introduced to the "Once-ler" who tells him the story of the Lorax. This story teaches the valuable lesson that those who are greedy never truly win in the end. The Lorax was my favorite character. He is a bit grumpy but ever so charming.

The Lorax kept my attention the whole way through with the fun story line and the lovely bright colors throughout the movie. I laughed out loud during several of the scenes. I loved being able to recognize several of the characters voices. There are a lot of big names in this movie including, Zac Efron, Betty White, Taylor Swift, Danny DeVito and many more.  I thought that Danny DeVito did a great job with the voice of the Lorax!

I would love to see this film in 3D beacuse of the beautiful colors and awesome graphics. Even in the 2D version, I wanted to reach out and touch the trees because they look very real and soft.

Get Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax on DVD August 7th 2012!

This is a film that the whole family is sure to love!

Dr. Seuss’The Lorax is thethird feature created by Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment (DespicableMe, Hop).

Nuby Flower Dumbbell Teether Review

Picture of Flower Dumbbell Teether
BPA FREE

Channing is already in the early stages of teething at 11 weeks old. Nuby sent us several teethers to try out and this is Channing's favorite! The Flower Dumbbell Teether is the perfect size and shape for him to be able to grasp a hold of and easily get it up to his mouth to chew on.


 On one end the teether has flower type petals that crinkle and the other end has three different textured sides that are filled with  PurICE Gel. The PurICE Gel stays cooler longer than water to really help relive sore gums.


The Flower Dumbbell Teether can be purchased at Buybabydirect.com for $4.99. I've also seen this product at our local Target stores!

BRING HOME THE #1 ANIMATED FILM OF THE YEAR FROM THE CREATORS OF DESPICABLE ME AND THE IMAGINATION OF DR. SEUSS!

DR. SEUSS’ THE LORAX

AUGUST 7, 2012

Plus Get Three Never-Before-Seen Mini Movies Available only on
Blu-ray™ Combo Packs for the Ultimate Experience

Universal City, California, June 5, 2012 – The colorful and captivating world of Dr. Seuss bursts onto the screen as never before on August 7, 2012 in the hilarious and captivating adventure, Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax from Universal Studios Home Entertainment.  Available on Blu-ray™ 3D Combo Pack and Blu-ray™ Combo Pack -- both featuring DVD, Digital Copy and UltraViolet™ so you can watch it anytime, anywhere -- Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax is non-stop family fun that includes three delightfully entertaining mini movies not shown in theaters,available only on the Blu-ray™ Combo Packs.  The film will also be available on DVD and Digital Download.   To view a trailer of the new mini movies, visit http://youtu.be/3DXU1348PHg

Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax transports viewers into a fantastical landscape imagined by Dr. Seuss and vividly brought to life by Chris Meledandri and his acclaimed filmmaking team at Illumination Entertainment (Despicable Me). Directed by Chris Renaud (Despicable Me) from a screenplay adapted by Ken Daurio and Cinco Paul (Despicable Me, HOP, Horton Hears a Who) from the 1971 children’s classic, the film is an imaginative journey that begins in the town of Thneedville, where a boy searches for the one thing he knows will win the heart of his dream girl. But in order find it, he must discover the story of the Lorax, the often grumpy but loveable protector  of Truffula Valley, in an exciting adventure filled with comedy and heart that USA Today’s Claudia Puig calls, “The right blend of funny, silly, and sweet.”

Danny DeVito (“It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” Twins, L.A. Confidential) lends his unmistakable voice to the Lorax, the remarkable creature who “speaks for the trees,” with Ed Helms (The Hangover, The Hangover Part II, “The Office”) as his enigmatic nemesis, the Once-ler. The all-star cast also includes Zac Efron (High School Musical, The Lucky One, 17 Again) as Ted, an idealistic 12-year-old searching for the Lorax; Grammy® Award winner Taylor Swift (Valentine’s Day) as Audrey, the girl of Ted’s dreams; Rob Riggle (The Hangover, Big Miracle) as the villainous O’Hare; Jenny Slate (Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked, “SNL”) as Ted’s protective mother; and five-time Emmy® Award winner Betty White (The Proposal, “Hot in Cleveland”) as Ted’s wise Grammy Norma.

One of the best-selling children’s book authors of all time, Theodor “Dr. Seuss”
Geisel created more than 40 cherished books that have been published in 95 countries and 17 different languages, selling more than half a billion books worldwide. The Lorax, which Geisel named his favorite work, is included on the “Educator’s All Time Top 20 List of Children’s Books.”

Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax Combo Packs contain a Blu-ray™, DVD and a Digital Copy of the film compatible with iTunes®, iPad®, iPhone®, iPod™, Android (or select online retailers), as well as UltraViolet™.  UltraViolet™ is the revolutionary new way for consumers to collect movies and TV shows in the cloud to instantly stream and download to computers, tablets and smart phones. Consumers can now truly enjoy their movies anytime, anywhere on the platform of their choice.
