Popsicle Mold by Gikbay - Product Review

Product Review GikBay Popsicle Molds Ice Pop Maker Repeat Use Durable BPA-Free plastic Oval Ice Pop Mold ,Set of 6 by GikBay We have really been enjoying these great popsicle molds!  #Popsiclemolds We make our own greek yogurt and it works perfectly for making yogurt popsicles. The molds are easy for me to make the pops in, and easier for the children to enjoy. Even the youngest member of our family enjoys the great shape of the handle. As a mom, I know each ingredient that goes into these and that gives me piece of mind knowing I'm feeding my kiddos a healthy snack free of artificial colors and sweeteners. I also can feel good knowing I'm not wasting anything or adding to a landfill with unnecessary waste. I received this product at a reduced rate in exchange for my honest review. The thoughts and opinions expressed are solely my own. Product Link -  http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DKLVN1U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&keywords=popsicle+molds+toddler

Cloth Diapers - What We Do!

I've met all sorts of people lately and lots of them are asking the same question(s), so I thought I'd get it all out here. Seriously, the woman at the post office even asked me to explain cloth diapering! I'm super excited about all the interest and hope this post is helpful. Feel free to ask questions in the comments, or email me directly: iamagemcrystal@gmail.com Funny thing about cloth diapers is the perception they're more difficult to use. "Boy Crystal you're taking on a lot with cloth, are you sure you have the time?". Honestly friends, I use cloth because I don't have time. I don't have time to shower, get dressed, pack up 4 children, drive into town, unpack 4 children, push a shopping cart around a store, purchase diapers and wipes, drive home, unpack children and diapers, etc... I USE CLOTH DIAPERS BECAUSE I'M LAZY AND LIKE TO USE MY SPARE TIME NAPPING AND READING! kid you not!!! Disclaimer: We've tried a lot of different thin...

Placenta What? Encapsulation?

A few weeks before Breccan was born (nearly a year ago), I learned about Placenta Encapsulation. I was pretty grossed out and dismissed it as something 'other people' do. I wouldn't judge someone who did it and I don't necessarily think it's good or back, but I just didn't think it was for me. Here I am a year later and I have become a much "crunchier" parent and somehow I now know more "crunchy" parents who have said things like: I did it and I'd do it again It's totally awesome I'm a doula and I offer encapsulation services to my clients So the wheels are turning once again.
