Crazy Dog and NachoMamaTees t-shirts Review and Giveaway!!

If you like funny t-shirts then you have to check out CrazyDogtshirts.com and NachoMamaTees.com! They have a great selection of shirts with great quotes from t.v. and movies. I was drawn to them because of their selection of t-shirts with quotes and images from The Office! It's one of my husband's favorite shows... so I thought this would be a great gift to give him for Father's Day! I knew he would get a chuckle and wear the shirt proudly!!

I contacted the company and they were fabulous! They sent me a shirt for review and offered to do a giveaway for my readers! I chose the shirt that says "Assistant to the Regional Manager." The shirt is great! It's a nice quality and goes through the wash with no problems. I ordered a large.. but looking back I should have gone with an x-large... but it still fits him pretty well.

You really need to head over to these two sites and check out the funny shirts! And they are totally affordable! These shirts would make great gifts for any occasion! They have shirts for men, women and kids (and even dogs)!!

GIVEAWAY: One Lucky Reader will win a shirt of their choice from CrazyDogtshirts.com or NachoMamaTees.com!!

Lady Out of Carolina makes amazingly beautiful pillow case dresses for little girls. She offers some of the most unique and stunning patterns that I have seen! She even offers some matching dresses for your little girl and their dolls!

Lady Out of Carolina was kind enough to send me one of her masterpieces for review on my blog. It took me the longest time to pick out the pattern that I would like. There are so many beautiful ones to choose from!! I finally decided on the Leanika and am so pleased with my decision!

Vacationing with a 1 Year Old.....

So things have been pretty quiet here on Momma Drama! That's because this past week we were on vacation... so I limited my blogging activity. This was a much needed vacation... but now I feel like I need a vacation from my vacation.....

Every summer we spend a week in Cape May, NJ. Last summer we went with our newborn.... but we brought my parents. Ahhh, that was key! We were able to go out to a couple of nice dinners and spend some time at the beach while our little one stayed with Grandma and Grandpa.

Well this summer we went... just the three of us. We decided to do a hotel instead of renting a house because then you don't have to lug sheets and towels and all that stuff. So we thought we would be traveling much lighter.... WRONG! By the time we got the pack n play, stroller, play yard, sun dome, pool float, beach toys and her bag of adorable outfits in the car there was no room for all my shoes! So I sacrificed and only brought three pairs of shoes.

Well, we survived the vacation and really had a nice time. But it was definitely a different experience. We didn't get much relaxing in as we were "on duty" all the time. Even at lunch and dinner my food often got cold as I cut up hers and got her settled. I guess I have to get used to this new life style! But I wouldn't change a thing because she had so much fun splashing in the pool and playing in the sand!!

So here is my next goal. I would LOVE to fly to Florida to see my grandparents. They have only met my daughter once because they came to us. But they're in their 80's so coming to us isn't very easy for them. Does anyone have any tips on traveling with a 1 year old on planes? What are the must bring and the "you think you need but you don't" items??


**I will be back full force this week with all new reviews and giveaways! But don't forget all the Birthday Celebration Giveaways are ending this weekend!!!**

Tooth Tissues Review

Dental care is very important... at every age. I was so concerned with starting my daughter off right that I was asking my dentist what to do before she even had any teeth!

My dentist was a wealth of information and stressed the importance of baby teeth. Many people believe in the theory that baby teeth fall out anyway so what's the big deal. That's not my philosophy or my dentists. He actually recommended that I start using Tooth Tissues on my daughter's gums even before she got teeth, and then continuing until I was comfortable using a baby tooth brush.

I contacted Tooth Tissues to see if I could give their product a try and review it for all my wonderful readers. The company was kind enough to send me a package for my review. Here is a little information from their website:

Tooth Tissues are disposable textured dental wipes specially designed to help remove plaque from your baby and toddler’s teeth and gums. Tooth Tissues are perfect for busy new parents eager to get their child off to a healthy start. Formulated with xylitol – a natural cavity fighter, use Tooth Tissues with confidence because they are 99% natural, fluoride and paraben-free.

I feel very comfortable using Tooth Tissues with my daughter. I have ventured into the world of baby tooth brushes and tooth paste but my daughter is.... less than tolerable. So the Tooth Tissues have been great! They are easy to use and she deals with it pretty well. I have more control with the tissue than with the brush, so I feel like I am doing a more thorough job. We will continue to practice with the brush, as she will have to get used to it. But I love the convenience and ease of use that comes with the Tooth Tissues.

Check out their website to see where you can purchase Tooth Tissues. You can also check out their blog and Facebook page! 

Baby Sew Pretty Review

Another fabulous Etsy find! Baby Sew Pretty is an amazing shop that offers an adorable selection of handmade items for babies, toddlers and children.  I came across this shop and absolutely fell in love with her style and the types of fabrics she uses. The shop is full of color and each item is so unique! She offers everything from dresses to shoes to tutus and bibs. She even has an adorable selection of outfits for boys... which is sometimes hard to find!! And the best part is that all of her items are affordable!

Baby Sew Pretty was kind enough to send me a beautiful dress for review. This print is beautiful and the fabric is nice and light for this hot summer ahead. I put it on my daughter and melted. She looked so beautiful.

You can tell that every item she makes is made with love and great attention. This dress is of high quality and done very professionally. Each seam is perfect and the details are amazing. The flower on the front is so unique and just adds so much to the pattern.

Lori, from Baby Sew Pretty, is such a joy to work with! She has passed along a little about her and her shop:

I have been sewing and crafting for many years.  I have made outfits for my kids, and my friends kids and was often told that I should sell my handmade items.  When I was recently laid off, and my daughter was due to give me my first grandchild, I decided to put my time at home to good use 

and opened BabySewPretty.etsy.com.  

I am very excited about all the positive feedback I have received about my clothing from my customers.  I recently decided to expand my shop and include items for boys.  

They need cute clothes too!   

Every item in my shop is made with special attention to detail.  

I offer adorable, fun, handmade boutique quality clothing and other items for babies, toddlers, and children and all at affordable prices.  

I also do custom orders.  If you have a special event coming up and need matching outfits, I can do that.  If you see something in my shop, but need it in a different size, or perhaps a different fabric, I can do that too.  

My turn around time is usually around 48 hours.  

If you would like to be on her mailing list you can e-mail your information to babysewpretty@gmail.com

I highly recommend that you check out her fabulous selection. I love that she offers such unique patterns and designs at prices you can afford. And I just have to share one of my favorite patterns of hers.... check it out here!!
