May Cravebox: A Closer Look & Review!

May Cravebox:
A Taste Of The Tropics
Pink Divider Clip Art

Lipton Tea & Honey To Go Packets
This low calorie iced tea mix contains only 5 calories and is available in six flavors. The packet I was sent in my Cravebox was the Mango Pineapple Iced Green Tea Mix. Before receiving the sample I had already tried this flavor and absolutely love it. The Mango Pineapple flavor is a refreshing blend of mango, pineapple, green tea, and honey. It has the right amount of sweetness from the honey and a citrus blend to quench your thirst. I really love the to go packets because you can keep them in your purse or car. They make it easy to create your own drink to go whether it is in a water bottle or you want to liven up your glass of water at a restaurant. I am looking forward to trying the other flavors since this one is so addicting!

 Guylian Original Belgian Chocolate Sea Shells
These were yummy but did not last very long when they arrived. My three year old loved that they were shaped like sea shells! Within seconds of removing the wrapping two were missing and somebody around here had chocolate covered fingers! The outside of the chocolates are marbled with milk, white, and dark Belgian chocolate. On the inside they are filled with a sweet roasted hazelnut praline truffle chocolate. The sea shell shapes are so pretty, it makes you not even want to take a bite. One of these will satisfy any sweet tooth. 

Tree Hut Coconut Lime Shea Sugar Body Scrub

The first thing I noticed before I even opened the body scrub up was the scent. I love anything Coconut Lime! It reminds me of the Summer time and sipping on tropical cocktails. This sugar scrub is infused with coconut oil and lime extract giving it a sweet fruity scent and boy does it smell good. I first used this on my hands in the sink to see how it felt and they were so soft afterwards. The scrub is fine grained and very gentle on the skin. It also leaves the perfect amount of moisture and fragrance behind. This will be in my shower for a long time! 

Skintersection Intense Repair Cream

This intense repair cream treats, moisturizes, soothes, and helps to heal dry cracked skin. It’s a rich formula that creates a barrier on your skin locking in any moisture. It can be used on your hands, feet, elbows, and any place on your body you may have severe dry spots. The first person I immediately thought of when i used this was my mom. My mom is a nurse and always complaining how dry her hands are from constant washing and disinfecting at work. Luckily, I had an empty makeup jar that I was able to scoop half of the product into and pass on to her to try as well. So far, she loves it and so do i! I have been using the Skintersection Cream as a substitute for lotion everyday since my Cravebox arrived. I love that it keeps my skin soft and smooth without leaving a greasy residue behind. It is also fragrance free so if you need to re-apply you do not have to worry about any over powering scents lingering. 

Sunsweet Plum Amazins

Plum Amazins are tiny pieces of dried diced plums containing less calories than raisins and cranberries. I have never been a fan of dried plums or prunes. There is something about the texture and taste that turns me off completely! Don’t get me wrong, i love whole plums but i just can’t get myself to eat a prune. I guess I am not a huge dried fruit fan in general. BUT my daughter on the other hand seems to really enjoy them. When I first opened my Cravebox this was the first thing she went for. She overlooked the chocolates and wanted to taste these first. I like that they are tiny and bite size. The cute individual packs are a nice size to put in her lunchbox and also make a good topping for cereal or oatmeal. 
Pink Divider Clip Art
For the most part I was happy with the May Cravebox. Even though I may have not been able to get the most use out of all the items, I always know someone else that will enjoy them when I can’t. The retail value of this box was well over $10 and the two full sized skincare/body products alone make it worth the small fee. Subscription programs are my weakness and i love getting full size products in the mail to try! This is my first “official” Cravebox since being accepted into their membership program and I am looking forward to seeing what they have in store. Keep ’em coming Cravebox!

What To Expect When You’re Expecting Giveaway!

A look at love through the eyes of five interconnected couples experiencing the thrills and surprises of having a baby, and ultimately coming to understand the universal truth that no matter what you plan for, life doesn’t always deliver what’s expected.

This movie was beyond funny and gave you a look into the lives of expecting parents in a variety of situations. I really enjoyed it and the “What To Expect..” series is a must for new parents and existing. The books really do contain everything you need to know through your parenting journey!
What to Expect When You’re Expecting, 4th Edition
Announcing a brand new, cover-to-cover revision of America’s pregnancy bible. What to Expect When You’re Expecting is a perennial New York Times bestseller and one of USA Today‘s 25 most influential books of the past 25 years. It’s read by more than 90% of pregnant women who read a pregnancy book–the most iconic, must-have book for parents-to-be, with over 14.5 million copies in print.
Now comes the Fourth Edition, a new book for a new generation of expectant moms–featuring a new look, a fresh perspective, and a friendlier-than-ever voice. It’s filled with the most up-to-date information reflecting not only what’s new in pregnancy, but what’s relevant to pregnant women. Heidi Murkoff has rewritten every section of the book, answering dozens of new questions and including loads of new asked-for material, such as a detailed week-by-week fetal development section in each of the monthly chapters, an expanded chapter on pre-conception, and a brand new one on carrying multiples. More comprehensive, reassuring, and empathetic than ever, the Fourth Edition incorporates the most recent developments in obstetrics and addresses the most current lifestyle trends (from tattooing and belly piercing to Botox and aromatherapy). There’s more than ever on pregnancy matters practical (including an expanded section on workplace concerns), physical (with more symptoms, more solutions), emotional (more advice on riding the mood roller coaster), nutritional (from low-carb to vegan, from junk food–dependent to caffeine-addicted), and sexual (what’s hot and what’s not in pregnant lovemaking), as well as much more support for that very important partner in parenting, the dad-to-be.
Overflowing with tips, helpful hints, and humor (a pregnant woman’s best friend), this new edition is more accessible and easier to use than ever before. It’s everything parents-to-be have come to expect from What to Expect… only better.

Everything new parents need to know about the care (and feeding) of an infant, from the authors of What to Expect® When You’re Expecting. Covers monthly growth and development, feeding for every age and stage, sleep strategies that really work.

Filled with the most practical tips (how to give a bath, decode your baby’s crying, what to buy for baby, and when to return to work) and the most up-to-date medical advice (the latest on vaccines, vitamins, illnesses, SIDS, safety, and more).

Reassuring Answers to Hundreds of Questions, including:

  • What’s the best kind of car seat for my newborn?
  • How do I know if my baby’s getting enough to eat?
  • How can I tell if my baby is really sick? When should I call the doctor?
  • Should I sign my baby up for classes?
  • Should I be worried that my baby isn’t crawling yet?
  • How do I cope with my colicky baby?

The only book on infant care to address the physical as well as the emotional needs of the entire family.

What to Expect the Second Year: From 12 to 24 Months
Heidi Murkoff’s What to Expect has delivered again. Announcing the arrival of a brand-new member of the What to Expect family: What to Expect the Second Year. The essential sequel to What to Expect the First Year, with 9.7 million copies in print, What to Expect the Second Year picks up the action at baby’s first birthday, and takes parents through what can only be called “the wonder year”—12 jam-packed (and jam-smeared) months of memorable milestones (from first steps to first words, first scribbles to first friends), lightning-speed learning, endless explorations driven by insatiable curiosity. Not to mention a year of challenges, both for toddlers and the parents who love them, but don’t always love their behaviors (picky eating, negativity, separation anxiety, bedtime battles, biting, and tantrums).
Comprehensive, reassuring, empathetic, realistic, and practical, What to Expect the Second Year is filled with solutions, strategies, and plenty of parental pep talks. It helps parents decode the fascinating, complicated, sometimes maddening, always adorable little person last year’s baby has become.

From the first birthday to the second, this must-have book covers everything parents need to know in an easy-to-access, topic-by-topic format, with chapters on growth, feeding, sleeping, behaviors of every conceivable kind, discipline (including teaching right from wrong), and keeping a toddler healthy and safe as he or she takes on the world. There’s a developmental time line of the second year plus special “milestone” boxes throughout that help parents keep track of their toddler’s development. Thinking of traveling with tot in tow? There’s a chapter for that, too.

Prize Pack bonus includes the What to Expect When You’re Expecting Soundtrack and a $25 Fandango Gift Certificate to send you and your choice of guests to the movies!
Giveaway ends June 9 at 11:59PM EST. Open to the US residents only; must be 18 years of age or older to enter.

Toodie’s Homemade Stepping Stone

This kit was purchased at ACMoore craft store and contained everything needed to make one stepping stone. Toodie loves to be outside and is always playing in the backyard picking flowers, observing nature, and chasing bugs. She was excited to make her own yard decoration that she could appreciate everyday!

Toodie added water very slowly to the mixture and stirred until it was a thick batter to be poured inside the square mold.

The kit came with a bag of chunky glitter to spread across the surface. This would make the stone sparkle in the sun. Toodie sprinkled it on, more generously in some areas than others. Then it was time to make her tiny hand print in the squishy mud. 

After we imprinted the stone with Toodie’s hand print it was mommy’s turn to carve her name with a popsicle stick. On to the decorating next..

Toodie enjoyed decorating her stepping stone with crystals and colorful rocks.

After all of the jewels and rocks were in place, it was time to let it bake in the sun.

We let it sit for 24 hours to dry completely and then cleaned the surface gently with a damp toothbrush. This removed all of the dust and extra particles stuck to the stone. 


After a little TLC we found a spot for it in the yard. 
With it being very rainy and wet here lately, it adds a little bit of color and sparkle to the damp rocks underneath.
