Genius! Where have you been my whole life?!

Yes, I am a sucker for a new and interesting product.  But, when I came across The Buggy Bubble (www.buggybubble.com) I was amazed at this invention and certainly wasn’t prepared to be bombarded by complete strangers practically begging me to buy it right off of me.

It is an all-in-one protective infant car seat cover.  It slips comfortably over your car seat and provides just the right amount of air circulation along with protection from the elements.  It is certified as 50+UPF and covers over 98% of the sun’s harmful rays.  The cover is also water resistant so you are basically covered with all types of weather.

 Not only is it functional it is practical and just looks really cool.

Everywhere I went people would stop me to ask where they could buy this product and even offered me some money to take mine right off of the bucket.

There is a zipper in the front that makes easy access to your child so that the whole Bubble doesn’t need to be removed, which is great because you don’t have to worry about waking your baby.  The pop up structured frame makes it a snap to open and close.

My favorite part of it is that it doesn’t blow in my sons face like some of the other shields - which truthfully does not make a walk all that enjoyable.  It is really the perfect all in one protective sheild for your car seat. 

I love my Buggy Bubble and suggest that you run, don’t walk to pick up your Bubble today.

It’s my Party and I’ll Have The Best Time if I want to…

Orange Dot 

So, my son just turned two :(

I guess he’s growing up and there is nothing I can do about it! 

Planning his party was a no-brainer.  I had been to Orange Dot (www.orangedotinc.com) a few months ago and knew right than and there that it would be the perfect spot.  And it certainly was.

Having 27 children and about 50 adults doesn’t give you too many options that can acomodate that many people.  Orange Dot, being over 3000 square feet offered up more than enough room.

The staff were amazing.  They were helpful from the minute we got there.   Setting up the food, plates, party hats and just ensuring everything that we needed to organize was taken care of was such a treat for Mom and Dad.  It’s nice to feel as though you can take some time to sit back and watch your child and interact with them at their party. 

The room was set up wonderfully for a birthday party.  There were balls, nets, a jumping castle, riding toys, blocks, gymnastic activities, books, houses -you name it, there was something for everyone.

Before I knew it, lunch time had arrived and once again the staff made it so easy and enjoyable for me that I was actually able to sit down and enjoy some pizza with my son.  I didn’t have to lift a finger.  I had brought matches and a knife for the cake, but they were all prepared with the essentials that I didn’t even have to take them out of my diaper bag.  One less thing to worry about.

All of the kids had a wonderful time, and the parents were equally impressed.

Most importantly, the Birthday Boy had a blast and really, that’s all that mattered to us.

Check out their website for classes or to book your birthday party - your child will thank you for it!
