Eenamaria Bags


I have decided that I love bags. I have started making my own, and I just can't seem to have enough. When I had the opportunity to review an eenamaria bag through the Family Review Network, I jumped on it!

I decided to go with the Workin' Weekend Baby Tote. I figured I could always use a big bag that would be great as a diaper bag or to just use as a big purse. I even saw this bag listed on another site as a laptop bag. That is perfect for the laptop I just got for my birthday! Now I have a bright cute bag I can use to tote that thing around, like to BlogHer this summer! I'll be the stylish one with the vinyl bag.

Here's a little more about the creator of the bags: "Sarah Morgan is the creator and designer of eenamaria handbags, offering a fresh, edgy new collection that really makes a statement. eenamaria offers every type of bag from small weekend clutches to large, functional travel totes that can fit all of your travel or business needs! And with bright colors and bold designs these bags are not only practical, but exciting and fun. Sarah has truly made herself; someone to watch out for. Not only has she been nominated twice for the Fashion Group International's 'Rising Star Award', but she will be airing her new line on QVC this March. With her placement on QVC, Sarah hopes to share her new collection with women, such as those who read blogs, who are modern, confident and strong women on-the-go. Sarah hopes to inspire and empower any woman who wears her bag – creating bold looks that represent an attitude and lifestyle that is full of passion and adventure."


This bag is bright and colorful, and you can't help get noticed with it. It is patent vinyl on the outside, and a bright red on the inside. Very modern and super fun. It has a big inside pocket, then two large zippered pockets on each side of the main compartment. It also has two cup pockets on either end of the bag, perfect for holding my water bottle, and my daughter's cup. As you can see in the picture, it's the perfect size. It's big enough to hold everything, but not so big you feel like you're carting around everything including the kitchen sink!

Sarah Morgan and eenamaria bags debuted on QVC last Friday, and will be on again this Thursday, the 26th at either 2pm or 8pm. Be sure to check it out!

I give these bags a thumbs up!

Some Winners

I have some winners to announce today. Now, if only Mom Central would hurry up and announce their winner for the Electrolux Washer/Dryer! I'm patiently waiting to hear if I won a contest myself.

1. Honest Baby Giveaway: This winner was picked by Honest Baby themselves, and they liked the story from Tiff Snedaker:
As for a non-perfect parent moment - I used to work nights. It was before I had my 2nd. I would come home from work and get maybe an hour or two of sleep. This basically meant I was a walking zombie. I remember dozing off on the couch and giving my two year old at the time a box of cereal and turning on a cartoon for him to watch. 10 minutes later, I woke up and noticed something all over Chandler's face. He was saying...."mmmmm....lemmy! (Yummy) He had gotten into a box of chocolates that I had bought the day before and had eaten more than half of them. There were about 30 in the box to begin with. Needless to say he had an upset tummy the next few hours and I felt awful. I know he enjoyed it at the time though...lol. Word to the wise - don't fall asleep with your two year old roaming your apartment!

2. Nature's Source Giveaway: #40 Nickolay said... I follow you

3. Shoo Shoos Giveaway: Momma said... I love the ones with the lion! If my son had them he would probably never stop growling at his feet!! lol

4. You Can Make This Giveaway: YZgirl4 said... I would love to make the personalized pillows! They would make a great gift!

Congrats everyone! You have 48 hours to contact me, or I will draw a new winner.

Baby Human Play and Learn Spoon


My daughter loves to feed herself. Only she usually ends up making a mess, or she used to gag herself all the time from pushing the spoon too far back. Thanks to the Family Review Network, we had the opportunity to try out the Baby Human Play and Learn Spoon.

Can I tell you how much we love these spoons? They are made with a flexible rubber that my daughter loves to chew on. She always likes to chew on her spoons before, but I always felt a little weird letting her chew on her metal or plastic spoons. I have no problem letting her play with this spoon. I know she won't poke her eye out with it if she falls.

We're also a huge fan of the mouth guard. It stops my daughter from gagging herself. And, the arched handle makes it easier to get the food from the plate to the mouth, so there's not as much of a mess.

One of my absolute favorite features, however, is the fact that it is double sided, so it can be used left or right handed. My daughter favors the right, but she still uses her left hand all the time. This spoon allows her to switch back and forth easily. Whoever invented these spoons is a genius! I highly recommend them to anyone who has a kid who is learning to self feed.
