This is a sponsored post and giveaway for OshKosh B’gosh. All thoughts and words are my own.

OshKosh B’gosh has been a favorite of many families for literally decades.  I remember wearing my own pair of OshKosh B’gosh overalls as a child, and many of you probably do, as well.  Hubby even loves their overalls so much that he had me buy a pair with pink hearts embroidered on them for Bubbles’ first birthday.

But OshKosh B’gosh is much more than just classic denim and World’s Best Overalls.  They have a whole new assortment of looks that both you and your kiddos will love.  We don’t have a local brick & mortar store, but I’ve had a great time perusing all their new outfits on the OshKosh B’gosh website.

OshKosh B’gosh Girls Tees

Grey Sequined Stripe Tee from OshKosh B'gosh

Some of my favorite new items are their super-cute sparkle girls tees.  Bubbles has been showing off her girly side lately, asking me for lots of pink, glitter, dresses, and more.  As soon as I saw the Sequined Stripe Tees, I knew she would love them and that she’d look adorable wearing them.

Kicking Off Potty Training with Pull-Ups®

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Pull-Ups® Training Pants.

There have been a number of times over the past few months that I thought we were finally ready to start potty training.  Bubbles would take an interest and try to go when prompted, and sometimes even of her own volition, but it wasn’t ever anything that was at the top of the list.  It came down to the fact that my curious little girl was afraid she’d miss out on something fun and was too interested in the book/toy/whatever she was doing at the moment to stop for a potty break.

I was surprised, because everyone always talks about how girls potty train so early and so easily.  I didn’t really want to press the issue with her because I didn’t want to turn it into something negative that she was going to be even more against trying (did I mention that my curious toddler also has quite the stubborn streak?).  The time has officially come for us to start, though.  Bubbles looked at me the other day and said, “No more diapers, Mama.  I’m a big girl.”  No arguments from me!

So we picked out some big girl undies and have them as our goal for after Christmas.  In the meantime, we’re going to be using Pull-Ups® Training Pants.  There are a lot of events and excitement over the next few days and we decided that Pull-Ups® were the best option to help us build the bridge between diapers and undies while minimizing accidents and the need for a change of clothes.

Lincoln Logs Redfield Ranch Set – Reliving a Favorite Childhood Toy

I received the Lincoln Logs Redfield Ranch in order to facilitate my review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I can remember spending literally hours as a child playing with my Lincoln Logs.  I don’t recall which one it was, but I do know that they were a Christmas gift (there’s photo evidence to help my memory).  The rest of that day and many days into the future I would lay on the floor, carefully fitting the logs into dozens of different patterns.

Lincoln Logs were a tradition that I knew I wanted to share with Bubbles.  They inspire creativity, building skills, and imagination, which are great elements for playtime.  Plus it was something I could play with her that I already knew I enjoyed.

Lincoln Logs Redfield Ranch Set - a Toys 'R Us Exclusive

I recently learned that K’NEX had released some new Lincoln Log sets – like the Lincoln Logs Redfield Ranch (available exclusively at Toys ‘R Us).  There 124 of the same classic wooden logs that I played with, plus a few updated additions like plastic roofs and window and door inserts.  The Redfield Ranch also has two figurines that a ranch wouldn’t be complete without: a cowboy and a horse.

Little Ones Can Play Mommy with a Nenuco Sleep With Me Doll and Cradle

I received a Nenuco doll and cradle set in order to facilitate my review. No additional compensation was received; all thoughts and words are my own.

Bubbles has been a fan of dolls since she started playing with toys.  Before that, actually.  I received a soft-body baby doll as a shower gift and I would tuck it next to Bubbles when she was in her electric swing.  Sometimes she wouldn’t even settle in without it.

Last year for Christmas Bubbles received a stroller for her dolls and that completely excited her.  She’d load up a purse with a toy bottle and diaper and take her baby for “walks” around the house.  It was fun to see her play Mommy and learn about taking care of someone or something.

She was doing such a good job with the stroller and her improvised diaper bag that I thought maybe she would like a new way to take care of her babies.  Then I ran across the Nenuco Sleep With Me Cradle set.  We already were enjoying other products by the manufacturer, Famosa, so I thought we would probably enjoy this, also.

Take an Indoor Ski Vacation with Pinypon Ski Lodge and Snow Car

I received the Pinypon Ski Lodge and Snow Car in order to facilitate my review.  No additional compensation was received and all words and opinions are my own.

I grew up in Maine about five miles away from the local ski lodge and lifts.  I wouldn’t really call it a ski resort as there was no hotel involved, but you could ski, snowboard and even go snow tubing.  We certainly had enough snow to support it; we routinely received multiple feet of snow per winter.

Here in Kentucky, though, we don’t get snow like that – thankfully!  While I enjoy watching the snow fall and having snow for Christmas Eve and Christmas, I don’t miss the years when the snow would accumulate so high you could no longer see out the windows.  The one caveat to that is that I wish there was enough snow for Bubbles to enjoy, as playing in the snow as a child was always great fun.

Pinypon Ski Lodge & Snow Car and Tow

With the Pinypon Ski Lodge and Snow Adventure Car & Tow we can at least pretend to have outdoor play.  The Pinypon friends in these two sets can ski, go snowboarding, skate, build a snowman, go sledding and even ride a snow mobile.  And when they’re done their outdoor fun, they can head inside and get warm in the lodge.
