Status Message: praying for sparkles family
About Me: HI! I am a 28 year old new mother to a 4.5 month old precious baby boy. He is the light of my life. I am married to a wonderful husband and father. I am a LVN at a mental hospital where I have worked for 8 years. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, camping, 4 wheeler riding, jet skiing.
Since we are taught not to use a microwave to heat baby bottles or baby food I decided to get a bottle warmer. I only looked at and purchased this one. This was the only one at the store and I didn't need anything real fancy. The looks alone caught my eye just because purple is my favorite color. After you put the bottle or jar of baby food into the warmer you fill t...
Of course I managed to find myself in over my head with credit card debt. I viewed a commercial on the television for a debt management consolidation program. The company was stationed out of California. I was hesitant at first but I knew I wasn't getting anywhere on my own. I gave them a call one evening and was set up right then with their program. This ...
I live in a small 2 bedroom, 1 bath well insulated brick home. We have a propane space heater that I am scared to leave on while we are not at home. Since I recently had a precious baby boy I did not want us coming home to a cold house. So we purchased this safe ceramic heater. It is approximately 1.5 feet long, 2.5 feet tall, and 10 inches wide. The heater do...
I had plans to be able to breastfeed my baby when he arrived. However, I knew there was a big possibility that I would not be able to. I also knew that there was a big possibility that he would have tummy troubles like his daddy. I prayed that didn't happen. I prayed that I was able to breastfeed him. I guess it just wasn't meant to be. After I was un...

"A must have for a newborninfant!"
When I found out I was pregnant I knew I would need a swing. I have always heard how handy they were. It required some online and in-store research. Then I found this swing. It caught my eye right away with the bright and vibrant colors. After we purchased it my husband was anxious to get it put together. It didn't take as long as what he was expectin...
I must say I could not live without this. This monitor has really saved my sanity. I actually believe it has also diagnosed my son with sleep apnea and saved his life. I was very skeptical of it actually working at first. I was really suprised when it did.This monitor detects the movement and sound of the infant. There is a sensor pad that requires being placed und...
As a nurse I am familar with many alcohol hand gels. They are used to effectively kill the germs on your hands or other areas if applied there. I started purchasing this brand when my son was born so that when people came to visit they could quickly wash their hands with this before touching or holding my newborn baby. The bottle I have is a 10oz bottle of the "origi...
When I became pregnant I wanted to find a bottle that would reduce gas in my future newborn baby. Then all the media started talking about the BPA chemicals in baby bottles. I researched and found that the playtex drop ins were not suppost to have that chemical in them and they were designed to reduce gas and colic in babies. These particular bottles have plastic liners that d...

"Gripe Water"
I was told by many mothers that I would need a bottle of gripe water for when my son arrived. Gripe water is a herbal supplement that is given for gas and upset stomach, hiccups, and colic. I got the 4oz original bottle that came with a syringe. It is a liquid that is made with ginger extract and fennel extract. Those are the 2 main ingredients. It r...
I have been dealing with seborrheic dermatitis for too long now. I have tried multiple dandruff shampoo's which seem to work for a while. It takes them several applications and then they stop working. I have frequently looked at the Nizoral shampoo but was skeptical of purchasing it due to it being $9.00 for a 4 ounce bottle an not sure if it would work or if I was wasting...
Our local news station does a program every week called "As seen on TV". They take a product that advertised on television and try it out there in the newsroom on camera. Then they rate whether they believed the product done it's job or not. When they gave the Downy Wrinkle Releaser a "Yes" I knew right then it would be in my buggy the next trip to the ...
When we found out that we were expecting I knew I needed somewhere to store the babies clothes. Since I was using the closet in the nursery we would need to purchase something where I could hang his clothes. We purchased this armoire offline and had it sent to the nearest Wal-Mart so we didn't have to pay for shipping. It took my husband and I approximately 30 minutes to as...

"What To Expect When You're Expecting"
As most any new mother I was very excited and very nervous when I found out I was pregnant. Since I was already at risk for a miscarraige it made me that more nervous. Some ladies suggested finding reading material and to knowledge myself about the pregnancy in general. I found this book at Wal-Mart, flipped through it and decided this would be my first book to read. The...
I just recently decided to buy a new vehicle due to the gas prices steadily rising. I wanted to purchase a Toyota Prius Hybrid. I done all my research. I was ready and excited to get a Prius. Little did I know they are few and far between in Texas. There are hundreds of people on the waiting list for them. I went to the Toyota dealership looking for a prius.&...
When my son became to big for his newborn bathtub I began putting him into the family big tub. I was always scared of him slipping and hitting his head on the tub. So I searched for something that would make me feel more at ease and would increase the safety in the bathtub. After looking at several inflatable tubs I decided to purchase this one because it wasn't oversized....
V-bottom 2000 GS Bombardier Sea Doo. It is 106 inches long, 46 inches wide, holds 482 lbs and has a 15 gallon gas tank. This is an awesome jet ski. It is a 2 seater marroon and white. This watercraft is not one of the fancy ones with the digital display. It only has a start and stop button and a gas gauge. For me that is all I needed. It will run ...

"Dr. Browns Bottles "
These bottles are designed with an airflow vent system to help reduce gas and colic. I purchased the 3 pack standard or "skinny" 8oz bottles. There are also wide neck or what I call short and fat bottles. I have been told that some babies are able to grip and hold the short/fat bottles easier than they are able to hold the standard bottles. All I...
