Mindy's Mayhem Reviews and More

While we don't have any kids yet, we do have lots of little ones in our lives. Little ones that we have in our vehicles a lot. Installing and switching car seats around all the time can be annoying and take a lot of time. I was so excited when  Ride Safer wanted to collaborate together. They sent me one of their ride safer gen 5 as well as their delightful booster seats. One of the little ones that I drive around the most is my 8 year old cousin. She is old enough know for a backless booster and with the Ride Safer Gen5 she actually doesn't need to use the booster. But, for picture and review purposes, we had her use both.                                                                       I was nervous that this was going to be hard to install... It was easier than any car seat I've ever installed before. For her height and weight, I simply had to attach the back hook to the car seat hook behind the seat. She got into the harness like a backpack and buckled hers

You guys know I am obsessed with  Glasstic Water Bottles. We have a few of these that are always in our fridge and I tell everyone about them. They sent me over another water bottle as well as some of their holiday wraps to go with and you guys, they are so stinking cute.                                                                           My favorite is by far the gingerbread wrap that I put in the water bottle. I have been using this and bringing it everywhere with me and I have received SO many compliments on it. I love that I can personalize my water bottle with the changing holidays or just as I want.  I love these shatterproof bottles. My husband never used to be water bottle guy until these were introduced into our lives. Now he brings his to work every single day. Make sure you head to their site and check out their bottles and all of their adorable wraps! Disclosure: I received one or more products for the exchange for my honest opinion. I only re

It's time for another  Little Poppy Co.   review.                                                                           You guys know how much I love Little Poppy Co's bow subscription service. This months bows scream Christmas and I am obsessed! The forest green bow is so dang cute and matches most Christmas outfits for little ones. I also love the velvet caramel color bow. It's so unique but so dang cute! I always love getting my little pink package in the mail every month. I look forward to it. If you have a little one in your life, or know someone who is about to have a baby. I highly recommend this! Disclosure: I received one or more products for the exchange for my honest opinion.

You guys know that I am obsessed with  LULAROE . Especially their holiday lines! They sent me over some of their Christmas goodies to review for you guys and I am in love!                                                                         Lularoe is known for their leggings. They are incredibly soft, and they fit perfectly. These Reindeer holiday leggings make me so happy. For those of you that don't know, Christmas is my absolute favorite holiday. I love the decorations, the music, movies, the festive clothes. EVERYTHING! When I saw these, I was so happy. These are the perfect Christmas leggings and I cant wait to rock these. I love that Lularoe has Christmas clothes that are for cold and warm climates. This short sleeve shirtis so simple and cute. This pairs well with most outfits and adds the perfect little touch of Christmas. When I first opened this I thought it was a blanket. Its actually a sweater. It doesn't have a zipper but it does open up

It's time for another  God's Glory Box review. The monthly box for Christians. As you guys know, I am obsessed with this subscription service!                                                                   This box came with a sugar scrub that smells like cotton candy, a CD, a necklace that says believe, a Christmas ornament, a downloadable book, and a super cute bible verse.

Zimpli Kids sent me over lava blast red gelli baff, goo blue slime baff, and swamp green gelli play.                                                                                 While I don't have any bath pics, trust me that these things are amazing. I am sure you can all attest that you wouldn't want pics of your little ones in the bath on the internet. All of these give endless amounts of fun! I find these great for rainy days or for days when it's too cold or gross out outside. I like to make these baths into a scavenger hunt. I hide little toys in the water (gelli and slime) and see how fast they can find them.  Slime is super popular right now. Everything that is slime related, all kids love! I did the gelli baff with my cousin and she thought was "the coolest bath ever".  If you know any little one, they will love to get one of these for Christmas!  Disclosure: I received one or more products for the exchange for my honest opinion.

 It's time for another  God's Glory Box review!                                                                       This months Box was so cute! It came with a bible verse card (have these all over my house tucked into corners of mirrors and windows. I love the positive reminders here and there), a book, a tote bag, a shirt (not pictured) and a downloadable book. I say this every month but I truly mean it. God's Glory Box is an amazing gift option for people. You can pick how many boxes to gift to someone and who doesn't love some happy mail.

I am so excited to be reviewing these awesome earrings from  Rogers and Holland . My family are big lovers of Rogers and Holland. My engagement ring and wedding band are from their as is my husbands wedding ring.  They have the best jewelry around and the customer service is phenomenal.                                                                         Rogers And Holland was so kind and sent me over these super cute Mickey and Minnie earrings to review for you guys.

Everything from Rogers and Holland are exceptionally made!  There is still time to head to your local store to pick out the perfect gift for you loved one for Christmas! Disclosure: I received o

For those of you who have been following our infertility journey, we adopted 2 embryos back in April. Unfortunately that transfer failed. We have since moved on to IVF with frozen donor sperm. Whitney Williams the Author of this book reached out to me and asked if I would be interested in reviewing her book. Of course I jumped at the opportunity. I am so incredibly happy that Whitney trusted me to review her book and that she took a chance and reached out to me. This book is amazing. I've only been in communication a few times with Whitney, but just from the few times, I can tell you that she is one of the most genuine and kind hearted people out there. From her kind hand written personalized note included with the book, to her sweet messages about her book. People like Whitney deserve recognition.                                                               This book tells a story about Mr. and Mrs. Baker. They so badly want to start a family and every time the

Anyone else gummy candy lovers? I haven't tried a gummy I haven't liked. But, I am picky with the ones that I am willing to spend money on.  Happy Yummies have the best tasting gummies and they have quickly become my favorite gummies on the market.                                                                   How cute is the packaging? A bear package for gummy bears. It's so cute! Happy Yummies has 14 normal flavored bears and they have extra special flavors as well. My bag included some giant bears which were pink and white champagne flavored. I was skeptical because I don't like champagne, but these were surprisingly delicious. My favorite flavors were watermelon and pineapple but there wasn't a flavor I didn't like. Happy Yummies is the perfect stocking stuffer for the gummy lover in your life!  Disclosure: I received one or more products for the exchange for my honest opinion.

I have always loved journaling, especially the older I get. In fact, I wrote a letter every day for 2 years to my husband. It's really cool looking back on things from years ago. Trips we went on, stupid disagreements we had, the day he proposed to me. It's all written down. There is something really special about being able to look back and read exactly how I felt on special days.                                                                                 When given the opportunity to review one of  Sohospark's   journals, I couldn't pass it up! It comes in this very nice, sturdy box with their logo on the front. They have a few different designs to pick from and I picked this adorable heart design. This is my favorite journal I have ever had, and I've had a TON! The inside is a basic lined paper notebook. Each design has a story behind it, making these journals all the more special. I plan on using this journal to write down our j

Flybar sent me this Pogo stick to review for you guys, and you guys will love this!                                                                       This Flybar Pogo stick is from ages 5 and up and for 40-80 pounds. I will say, this really works best in that weight range. My cousin who is in the proper age range, but weighs under 40 pounds, had a hard time bouncing well on this. So beware of that. Other than really having to be in the weight range, this is an awesome toy. I remember pogoing for hours when I was a kid. I was so good. HAHA. I didn't think they made these anymore so when Flybar offered this to review, I jumped (pun intended) on it!  If you know a little one who loves to jump and needs to burn off some energy, I highly recommend getting them a pogo stick!

Misty Mate sent me over one of their mist pro 3's to review for you guys.                                                                                 1st, the packaging is so nice. It comes in a foam box which protects the mister.  The 2nd green line you see is the max line. This mister holds 3oz of water. Once full, you twist and pull down on the pump handle to pressurize the mister. Once their is tension on the pump handle, you put the pump back in and lock it into place. Then your mister is ready to use.  This is the top. This is what you remove to fill the mister. I wish I had this over this past summer, and for every Mexico vacation I've taken. My husband and I went to a zoo this summer with my in laws and I swear it was the hottest day of the year. This would have been so amazing to have. Being able to mist your face when your hot, feels so dang good.  This is also so nice when you have little ones. Little ones never seem to kno

It's time for my November  Nadine West review.                                                                     Your goodies always come in these adorable, perfectly wrapped pink packages.  This feather necklace is right up my alley. It's silver and gold which I've been loving lately. I never used to wear gold but when I pair it with silver, I really like it! How cute is this gold, copper, and silver bracelet. I have been rocking this ever since I got it. It matches all of my fall/early winter outfits and I am obsessed. This isn't my favorite but my mom loved it so I gave it her and she's been wearing it a ton lately. This silver floral and gold bracelet is small and it adds the perfect touch to any outfit. I have this same bracelet in silver and I love it so I was excited to get another one in gold.  This is my favorite piece from my package this month. It goes past my belt line and it the perfect fit. I never owned lo
