Easy Solution For Clean Car Seats Plus Giveaway

Kids, pets, muddy feet, spills and more are all in and out of our cars every day. Well, maybe the spills are not out. If you’re a parent you’ve probably deal with a lot, if not all, of what I mentioned. My husband and I have leather seats in our vehicles but they still require cleaning. We also like to have our seats protected against scratches or tears as much as possible. Most of all, we like to protect our leather seats from having the car seats installed right on top of them. Maybe you have thought about car seat covers. We recently installed a full seat cover in the back seat of my husbands truck.

We used to use the seat protectors that just go where the car seats are but this cover fits over the entire back seat. It was easy to install. The car seats fit great, there are Velcro openings for the seat belts. The cover we chose is the VersaVia , this cover comes in three colors; black, tan and gray. The cover is quilted with a non-slip rubber backing that keeps it in place. It looks like a custom cover. The cover is waterproof, and 54″ wide so with the adjustable tight-fitting straps it fits most trucks, SUVs and vans.

Poopsies, Waterproof Onesies–Your Ally For Baby Blowout!!! Enter Our Giveaway To Win One!!!

Poopsies Logo

Parenting is a dirty job!  New babies can be a challenge for even seasoned parents.  One of the messiest parts of training is dealing with baby blow outs.  If you don’t know what a baby blow out is, you probably are not yet a parent.  There is a stage that babies go through that is commonly known as the “blowout stage”. This stage is due to the undeveloped nature of the baby’s digestive and excretory system. What was previously wholly supported by the placenta is now developing on its own. This causes the stool of the newborn to be similarly immature. The formation of the baby’s excretion will miss certain steps that sustain the poop to some degree causing it to be loose and unruly. As a result, a diaper will have a hard time containing the liquid-like substance that all parents hate.

If a blow out happens at home, it is easier to deal with but if it happens when you are out, it is much more complex.  I still remember when my son Ethan was only a few weeks old.  My husband and I went out, it was a nice day and we stopped in at a restaurant.  I was seated at a table while we waited for our food and Ethan was in his infant car seat on the table.  In a nano second the scene went from peaceful and relaxed to sheer chaos as he had the dreaded baby blowout.  It was a mess like no other and he of course started crying and when I tried to pick him up discovered how extensive it was and had to get out of Dodge before we grossed anyone out.  I am not even sure of exactly what I did but I motioned to my husband that we had a situation and he told them to make our food to go as he and I ushered our poop filled newborn out to the car.  In the car we went through what seemed a box of wipes, had to bag up his clothing, clean the car seat as best we could and then my husband ran in and picked up our food and we headed home.  

I am sure nearly every parent has a story that can relate to the one I shared and if not, you are one of the lucky ones who escaped.  There is a sort of insurance policy against the “oozing” effects of a baby blowout and it is called Poopsies.

Poopsies are unique onesies for babies that contain a special lining made of waterproof, breathable material that effectively protects against diaper leaks and blowouts, saving time and money for busy parents.  The unique waterproof lining in a poopsies keeps diaper blowouts from getting out and ruining clothing.   The baby diaper blowout mess that you see in the image to the right is actually contained in the poopsies on the left.  The blowout doesn’t get through, keeping outfits and everything around baby safe from stains and inconvenient mess.

 

Poopsies are made of satiny smooth cotton / rayon blend that stretches with baby and machine-washes beautifully.  All poopsies contain a special, unique lining that is made of waterproof, breathable material that is often used to make diapers, changing mattress covers, and bibs.

The Children’s Labels Company Review & Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

Diana at The Children’s Labels Company sent me a nice assortment of their products.  She sent me dishwasher safe, waterproof name labels, iron on labels for light and dark fabrics, and the cutest bag tags.  I have to admit when I saw that these were waterproof and would withstand the dishwasher I was skeptical for a few reasons.  The first being, I know labels and water don’t usually mix too well.  Second, which will be no surprise for those who know me, since I am a germophobe, I have a dishwasher that sanitizes everything, with not only the hottest water but steam and heat.  So, when you open my dishwasher the steam that emits is so strong it could strip your wallpaper.

I had just recently picked up some Curious Chef Mugs for the boys at Wegmans (love my Wegmans), so I thought I would use them as my guinea pigs.  I read the instructions and you apply the labels to a clean dry surface and not wash or get it wet for 24 hours.  After the time was up I placed the cups in with the dishes and ran my usual heavy-duty cycle with a high temperature scrub and sanitizing cycle.  They did not stand a chance.  When it was finished and I opened the dishwasher for my facial and the steam just filled the kitchen, I knew it would not be good.  I was shocked to reach in and find the labels as bright and crisp and secure as they were before I put them in their exfoiliating sauna.  A few days ago, we put them on the boys identical excavators.  They have been playing in the dirt and rain with these trucks and the labels are readable and secure.

Now, I am going to set about labeling everything in site.  It is great because we are going on vacation and I can label the kids toys and clothes.  It works really well because we usually buy two of everything for our Irish Twins.  It is also the start of T-ball so I can label Ethan’s bat and batting helmet and mitt so it will not get mixed up with the team equipment.  These labels are great for labeling bottles and sippy cups for daycare, pre-school or the church nursery.  The possibilities are endless.

After the Wash!!!
