Repax Reusable Grocery/Shopping Bags #giveaway
Going green is on everyone’s mind, even the mass merchandisers. Companies like Target are offering cents off for every reusable bag you bring in for shopping.

Save money and the environment. Repax Bags are cute, stylish reusable bags that fold up super tiny so they are easily stored. They come four to a bag, and each one is a ...
Fitness Friday – Fighting Depression
My Progress for last week was wonderful and with the small amount of movements I’ve been feeling better. I had my follow up with my doctor and I’ve been released. So I can do more movement and get my life back to normal. I took the kids for one to three walks every day rain or shine and I hate the rain I really do. I’ve been depressed because of the rain. I need some sunshine so I’m going to spend a few weeks in Texas. It’s rained for 15 days straight. I’ve ...

Toothpaste Stages and when is it time to change
When talking to my stepmother about brushing my children’s teeth she told me that they didn’t brush our teeth until we lost our baby teeth. Hmm. That wasn’t the advice I was looking for when I needed to know what to do about my kids teeth. So we have deferred to the professionals here.
As a baby you are supposed to wash their gums. To do this you can use a wash cloth or buy a gum massager that you can place on your thumb or index finger and you can clean their gums. You can continue to do this until they reach the ability to spit. Or you can start using stages toothbrushes and toothpaste.
Colgate sent me some toothpaste and toothbrushes to try out. They didn’t need to because Colgate already is our favorite brand of toothpaste that we use regularly. On our kids we haven’t purchased in fluoride toothpaste yet. That is why we are going to donate the supplies that Colgate sent to us. The supplies that they sent to us where Dora the Explorer, loved by both my daughter and my son. We have purchased the Dora toothbrushes before, but since we have to replace them every three months, I sometimes purchase what’s cheapest, so right now we have Darby from my friends Tigger and Pooh which is another brand. Sorry Colgate, I’m one of those shoppers that purchase what’s on sale.
For years, Dora the Explorer™ has taken kids on countless journeys, helping them overcome obstacles and solve problems on the way to a common goal. Now, in celebration of a decade of Dora, kids can explore a new challenge – discovering the path to healthy smiles with Dora the Explorer™ Toothpaste and an assortment of Toothbrushes from Colgate®.
Specially designed for kids ages 2 and up, the Dora the Explorer™ Anti-Cavity Fluoride Toothpaste in a Mild Bubble Fruit® flavor is clinically proven to defend against cavities while strengthening and protecting developing teeth. Plus, the Dora Toothbrushes featuring soft bristles and non-slip cushioned handles are available in two styles – one specially designed for kids with developing teeth, and the other featuring a small “battery-operated” rotating head that cleans teeth and gently sweeps away plaque. The combination of the Dora the Explorer™ Anti-Cavity Fluoride Toothpaste and Toothbrushes will encourage brushing and have both kids and moms singing, “We Did It! ¡Lo hicimos!”
The Dora the Explorer™ Toothpaste ($2.79) and Toothbrushes ($2.49 – $5.99) are available online (www.colgate.com/kids) or at major retailers across the country.
We have been using toothpaste that is considered to be pre-brushing stage. It has no fluoride but has some flavor that helps encourage brushing. From there as they learn how to spit the Dentist has recommended that we move over to fluoride toothpaste.
Then we will also move them over to an electric spinning brush because our dentist has also recommended that an electric toothbrush will help keep their teeth cleaner. The spinning action removes more plaque than hand brushing.
One final note from me, we love adding things like toothbrushes to stockings. It makes them quite happy to receive a character toothbrush. So it’s easy to buy a necessity and include it in Christmas fun.
Colgate is also wanting to provide one of my readers with a package of goodies.
(close to a 15 – 20 value depending on if you receive an electric toothbrush or not)

Who wants toothpaste I do I do.
November 16, 2009 · Filed Under personal · 7 CommentsWhat mother can say anything to something so musical as this.
It was time for bedtime a few nights ago and while we were walking up the stairs she started singing.
“Who Wants Toothpaste” and responded to her own question.
“I do I do”
It was a perfect mommy moment and I was so glad that daddy was there to hear it to.
We have struggled for so long with teeth time, even though she had this one good night we still struggle. I just know that some nights she’s going to want to brush. So I look forward to those nights.
