Nuby No-Spill Flip-it Cup Review

Image Map


 

No-Spillâ„¢ Flip-itâ„¢
Today I will be sharing the Nuby No-Spill Flip-it cup.





The No-Spill Flip-it cup is great. I love the bright colors and so does my son! The best part is the "Flip-top". It is great to be able to easily cover the straw without having to remember a cap. My son loves to flip it closed too. It is so easy he can do it himself! It is great to be able to flip the top and then stick it into the diaper bag pocket. I don't have to worry about it leaking in the bag, or it getting dirty. The cup is easy for my son to hold. Also the straw is soft so it doesn't bother his teeth. He is getting his 2 year molars in right now and it hasn't bothered them at all.

The Nuby No-Spill Flip-it Cup is Available at these retailers:

Spring Henna Workshop

I'm very excited to share this great Henna Workshop with my readers. I love Becca's work! She did my belly while I was pregnant with my daughter. I will be attending Becca's class in May to learn more about Henna. It is believed that if you have Henna done in the last weeks of your pregnancy it will help you have an easy labor, and ward off any evil spirits surrounding the birth.

Sunday Family Update + Announcement



Well another Sunday has come and gone. The weeks are flying by over here. My kids are growing and changing by the day! It is so cool watching them develop their own personality.

My daughter for sure has changed so much in the 6 months she has been with us. I can't believe a half of year has already went by since her birth. She is getting close to crawling already. I would say in the next month or so she will start. I can already tell as soon as she starts being mobile she won't stop just like her big brother.

My son has been doing a lot better with his jealousy issues. I try to take time every day to spend one on one time with him, and it has worked so well! I love how much he is growing and changing too. He is becoming so talkative. My son has been going through "calling me by my first name" thing again. Its actually pretty hilarious to hear him call me "Taya" instead of "mom".

Now for  my update and announcement. I want to spend more time writing about "Adventures". There is so many cool things to see and do in my area. I want to show my readers what fun and exciting things we do around here. I am also looking for local readers to add to this. If your interested in writing about your "Adventures" please email me! Or you can leave a comment below and I will get back to you.

I will continue to do reviews and occasional giveaway so that will not change. I will also be covering cloth diaper, breastfeeding, and babywearing information. I would love to continue teaching so I'll be working more on teaching material and resources for cloth diapers.

Till next time XOXO

Over the last few days I have been trying to get my laptop back up and running. I have got it going pretty good now. I have a lot of work to catch up on so please bear with me. I appreciate everyones patience!

I'll be working on some reviews and cloth diaper articles over the next few days. I'm hoping to get at least one of each done by tomorrow.

I'll be posting my Sunday Family Update as well tomorrow. I have some exciting news to share in tomorrow's post. I also have a giveaway going live Monday.
