Happy Birthday to Me!!

So part of the reason we're out of town is to have one last little vacation before baby Isaac gets here! But also to celebrate my birthday, which is today! I've been so blessed with an amazing 24 years and I'm so excited to see what's in store for this next year and the years to come! Hope you'll continue to follow me through this journey I call life!

Dandelion Earth Friendly Goods Plush Toy Review and Giveaway!

Dandelion Earth Friendly Goods is a family owned business focused on families like yours and mine! Dandelion offers products that are safer for your baby and safer for the environment, which gives you as a parent great peace of mind!

I was given the opportunity to review a 10" Plush Monkey for Noah like the one above! This little monkey is so soft and cuddly and the perfect size for a toddler! Noah was super excited when I gave him the plush monkey! He has a sock monkey that he sleeps with at night and nap times and so he calls this monkey his "Baby Monkey" since its a bit smaller than the sock monkey he has. Well now, he sleeps with BOTH the sock monkey and baby monkey! He loves baby monkey!

Baby Monkey recently was a lifesaver in our home! Noah stayed with my mom one night and when my mom brought him home she forgot his sock monkey! My mom lives an hour away!! I freaked out! His sock monkey is his lovey! I mean he's never slept without it since he was 4 months old! So you can see why I was super worried! So at bedtime I tried not to even mention monkey to him, but of course he asked for him. So I said, "we left it at Nanas, how about I get baby monkey?". And he was perfectly ok with that and slept all night long! I was so relieved! And from that night since he's slept with both the sock monkey and the "baby monkey".

I love Dandelion Earth-Friendly Goods store! There products are made of organic, natural, and recycled materials and parents and baby's alike love them! They have products for every day needs, as well as great gifts for the kiddos in your life!

Pretzel Crisps® Review!

Who doesn't love a yummy snack that's portable and healthy?! I'm a huge chip lover. I could eat chips all the time! All day long! Seriously! But I know chips aren't very good for me. All that salt and greasiness...so bad! Which is why I am so excited to have discovered Pretzel Crisps®. 

About Pretzel Crisps®


- Great alternative to potato chips!
- 110 calories per serving and no fat!
- Does not contain trans or saturated fat!
- Tons of great flavors!
- Zip top bags keep them fresh and make them easy to take anywhere!
- Great with any toppings!


I received a few different flavors of Pretzel Crisps® to review! My favorite is probably the Original or the Sesame flavors. My hubby's favorite are the Buffalo Wing flavor. He's a big fan of spicy! Noah likes them all! These are such great snacks! They are great for at home when your watching tv or just have the munchies and they are great snacks for taking out to the park or to a friends for a playdate!  I love anything with a zip lock top because then the food lasts so much longer! I never have to worry about my Pretzel Crisps® going stale! These are one of the best tasting and healthiest snacks I've ever had!

Our Growing Garden

Well hi there. I'm Kristin. I'm wife to hubs and first time mommy to my little Jibbler, otherwise known as James. I started this blog back in January 2009 to document my trying to conceive journey. I have a Catahoula named Oscar and a calico kitty named Bunny. I breastfeed. I babywear. I cloth diaper. I like to make my own baby food. I guess you can call me a crunchy mama. I love to read. Lonesome Dove and Outlander are my favorites. I love peanut butter. Bring me Reese's and you have a ticket to lifetime love from me. I have a degree in Biology. I'm a Christian. I love the feeling of putting on brand new, never worn socks. I love sniffing the lemony fresh steam from the dishwasher. Is that weird? Anyway, I recently had an epiphany. I am working on making my life what I want it to be because this.is.it. We have ONE chance to create our family, our outlook, the world around us.

EMI Yoshi Review!

Ever hosted a party or event and wanted to use plastic but didn't want the cheap look of plastic utensils? Well I have a solution for you!  "EMI Yoshi products are high quality, disposable or reusable plastic plates, cups, bowl and serving ware." They are not only stronger and more durable than your typical plastic products but they are also super stylish!

I received the Square Waves 5oz bowls, like the ones above, in both black and white, to review. These bowls are so cute and stylish! But even better than that, they are super durable! Not only are they perfect for serving at parties or events, but they are the perfect size bowl for toddler snacks! That's what I have been using them for ever since I received them! They work great for cereal treats, goldfish, and even pudding or ice cream! And they are so sturdy I would consider them toddler-proof! Even if your kiddo likes to bang things when they eat, these bowls will hold up to the torture! I love it!

Check out some more of their chic and stylish products that can be used for any occasion!

I am in love with EMI Yoshi products because they are affordable, durable, washable, and so cute and stylish!!
