I had a Christmas accident! The first one of the holiday season when I dropped a pair of scissors smack on my big toe…which in turn ripped off part of the toenail.

Lucky for me, I have these really cool retro Mickey Mouse Band-Aids to cover the nasty toe!

You should be able to find these at Target for around $2.75. Use a coupon to save even more! Would make a great stocking stuffer for those accident prone adults like me.

When I think of Gain, I think of laundry detergent. However, Gain also has dishwashing liquid that is available in three refreshing scents. No more boring dishwashing!

While, the new Gain scents don’t make dishwashing do themselves, it is does  make it more pleasant with the wonderful aromas.  Gain Dishwashing liquid comes in Original, Lavender, Citrus Splash, and Apple Mango Tango scents.

You can find more information on the new Gain Dishwashing Liquid at ILoveGain.com or on Facebook.

Sports Illustrated Kids: All Access is a must give book if you have a child who is a sports fan! This book gives you an inside look to sports stars, locker rooms, and more. It is a book that could keep a child’s interest with the pictures and get behind the scenes information.

Even as an adult, I think it is pretty cool to go inside the New York Mets locker room – and see the junk food they have on hand! You can even compare the size of your hand to Shaq’s on the very first place, which is HUGE.

This 48 page book will be released on October 26, 2010 (my birthday!) and it retails for $19.95. Amazon has a deal if you pre-order it right now for just $13.57.

Sofia was giddy with the new Moon Dough. I’ve read about it but we’ve never tried it. I’m sold on it now.

For one, it is much easier to clean up that other types of dough. It is dry so you can vacuum right up when your child is done playing with it. Secondly, it never dries out so you can play with it over and over again. It is also hypo-allergenic and wheat-free. Plus, just so much fun!

So while the older kids had their first day of school, Sofia wanted to get out the Moon Dough Barnyard Playset we were sent to try out.

You can create your own barnyard, fence, and hay bale with the molds included.

Crank, crank, crank. With the magical molding, you can created your own cow, pig, sheep, and horse.

Includes a farm based play mat.

One of the 3D animal creations.

Three colors of molding including blue, yellow, and white.

This provided quite a bit of fun for my daughter and as a mom I loved the quick clean up. Because these don’t dry out, I could have just used a plastic baggie to store the moon dough.

These fun interactive sets start at just $9.99 (Pizza Shop, Doghouse, Burger Shop) and moon dough refill packs start at $2.99 retail price and come in blue, green, white, orange, purple, red, pink, and yellow. The Moon Dough Barnyard shown above retails for $19.99 and can be found in major retailers in-stores and online at Amazon.com.

Last year, when I hosted my Suave Red Carpet style party, the guests were disappointed only because they had these fabulous hair dos and no place to go! This year, a few of us were attending a Gala for our local Boys & Girls Club, which was a perfect excuse to get our best “Suave Red Carpet” on including some fabulous hair styles.

I love the Suave Professionals line for the price and for the quality. In 2009, I even had my hair styled by stylist to the stars, Luke O’Conner. I’ve been a fan of the Suave line for quite awhile, which most of my long time readers know.

Suave has come up with some great new additions to the Suave Professional line. I’m absolutely LOVING the Rosemary Mint Shampoo and Conditioner. It tingles a bit while it cleans and conditions and the aroma is a great way to wake up in the morning or relax in the evening.  The Almond and Shea Butter also has such a great scent.  The conditioner gives me just the right amount of conditioning without being greasy, which is a must in my book.

The styling products are just fabulous too. My hair do held up all night long, which was amazing. A few days after the party, my mom told me how much she was loving the Volumizing Hair Spray.

If you watched the Emmy’s or read any of the celebrity magazine, you probably noticed the beautiful waves on Sofia Vergara, star of one of my favorite shows Modern Family. First of all, her name is spelled right just like my Sofia. Suave Professionals were good enough to give her those glamorous waves styled by Jenny Cho.  If its good enough for a television star to use for the Emmy’s, then it must be good stuff!

Suave sent a stylist to our home to help the ladies get Suave Red Carpet Ready. Plus, each guest was able to take home a goody bag full of awesome Suave products. We had so much fun and were able to really try out these great products! I’m loving my wavy look and my Sofia looks gorgeous with her curls! Though, they were gone just a little while longer after she went swimming.

Research has shown that essential fatty acids play a vital role in our children’s development. Getting children or even adults to eat fish the recommended amount per week can be quite a chore. Most children can’t swallow pills or tablets so an alternative is needed.

Ascenta has created a new NutraSea Kids supplement so now Moms can provide their children with a great Very  Berry taste in liquid format, which can be taken on its own or added to smoothies, milkshakes, yogurts, and other kid favorites.

NutraSea Kids is recommended for children aged 2-13 and just one teaspoon (5 ml) will provide your child with enough Omega-3 and Vitamin D for their development. The Pure Check logo featured on all NutraSea products guarantees that they have been independently tested and certified for quality, purity, and potency, which sets Ascenta apart from competitors.

We didn’t think the liquid had any taste and taken on its own it is a little oily. However, when added to yogurt or a smoothie, you didn’t even notice it. It’s important to my children’s development so I will continue to give it to them in their liquids!

I wrote this review while participating in a blog campaign by Mom Central on behalf of NutraSea Kids campaign and received NutraSea samples to facilitate my candid review. Mom Central sent me a gift card to thank me for taking the time to participate.
