Getting in Shape (Part 3) - Jogging Stroller
Hi! My name is Alicia and I will be your giant hypocrite for the evening! :D
I hate to sound like “that” person
who dives head first into things too quickly (although I kind of am) and I
DEFINITELY don’t want to sound like I have a surplus of money to spend at my
leisure because that’s far from the truth, BUT…we kind of splurged on a “new to
us” jogging stroller. Me. With a jogging stroller. Me, who always scoffed at
them back in the day. Yep.

Getting in Shape (Part 2) - Jogging Apps
Welcome back! If you read part 1,
you read about wanting to get in better shape before having another baby has
really kicked my butt in gear to get serious about losing weight. I have
already cut way back on pop and pasta in the past several months and love going
hiking, but something more needs to be done; something more “drastic” and
regular. While I do get an excellent workout from hiking up and down “mountains”
with Myka on my back at least once a week, that’s not exactly going to help me
out for the rest of the week.
Splash Math Giveaway
Splash Math Giveaway Hosted by Pea of Sweetness
Sponsored by Splash Math
Co-Hosted by Getting Green with Baby
Splash Math has now launched their website as well as an updated app that syncs with their website so your children's progress and rewards will be the same on both platforms! Splash Math uses an Adaptive Algorithm that finds a child's true grade level with Splash Score. With this, a child can learn at his/her own pace. Unlimited questions from hundreds of skills across Grades 1 through 5 ensure that there are no gaps left in elementary math skills! It is fun and engaging, so kids WANT to practice their Math!
Math was definitely my least favorite and worst subject in school. I didn't do terrible, but a program like this would have been really helpful and probably would have gotten me more interested in math! This would be a great program to use in a home school setting and to help out public school students alike!

Just Natural Organic Care Giveaway
Welcome to the Just Natural Organic Care Giveaway!
*~ 3 products of your choice! ~*
Hosted by: Savory Savings
Sponsored by: Just Natural Organic Care
As a society, we are seemingly more worried about what we put into our bodies – you see a bigger push for stores and even restaurants to offer organic, all-natural and gluten-free foods, but I wonder, does that same desire for chemical-free living extend to our body care products as well? Pick up any bottle of “mainstream” shampoo and you may find yourself face to face with a list of ingredients that you cannot pronounce, or that contain harsh agents such as parabens, alcohol, and sulfates, just to name a few. If we demand all-natural products for the inside, we should do the same for the outside!
Just Natural Organic Care offers a full line of hair and skin products made from organic ingredients, as well as being free of sulfates, parabens, alcohol and gluten! In addition to that, they are also vegan and cruelty-free! Krista over at Savory Savings had the chance to try out Just Natural Organic Care’s psoriasis line of haircare products including the shampoo, conditioner, vinegar rinse and body soap! Be sure to check out her full review as she shares about softer hair and an itch-free scalp for the whole family!
As most of you know, we strive to find all natural and/or organic bath and body products as much as possible at our house. I would love to try some of these products out for that reason, but would especially love to see how the psoriasis hair care would work for my husband!
Would you like to win three products of your choice from Just Natural Organic Care? Enter with the Giveaway Tool below! This giveaway is open to US residents only, ages 18 and older. The giveaway will run from November 13, 2013 through November 27, 2013 at 11 PM CST.

No More BLT Weekly Updates (BLT)
If you’ve read any of my BLT (Baby
Learning Time) posts in the past, you may have noticed I used to try to do
weekly updates at first. You may have also noticed that I did about 3 or 4 of
those updates and stopped. Lol For anyone might be wondering what happened to
them, here is a little update on updates. (hee hee)

With dry skin and eczema running high during the winter months, it is important to take good care of your skin. This is even more so, for those with moderate to severe eczema that flares easily. Krista over at Savory Savings recently had the chance to check out The Eczema Company - your new one stop shop for all things itchy skin related! She reviewed the "On The Spot" eczema stick balm and loved how easy it was to apply (even kids can do it!) and that it was not greasy! This product is great for chapped cheeks from wind, dry/cracked knees and elbows and little patches of stubborn dry skin. Be sure to check out the full review on Savory Savings!If you would like to protect your skin from becoming dry and itchy, or would like to heal it, check out this Eczema Healing Set giveaway! Valued at nearly $40 this set includes On The Spot, a honey skin cream, and an olive oil soap! This would make a beautiful gift or fantastic addition to your daily beauty routine to ensure healthy and smooth skin.
I am definitely going to have to check this out for my husband. His skin isn't as bad as it used to be, but he still seems to go through spells where it flairs up.
