Come Out & Play Kerrific Giveaway

It's summer! We celebrated this weekend by spending time at Grandma's and getting a little bit sun burnt. Not ideal but now I know which children need sunscreen applied more often this year - D.

We've also added some new cape styles including our highly requested Transformers & Frozen styles.

Swim diapers are another highly requested item for summer that we are excited to have added more styles & brands. I just love these one size swim diapers. And they come in lots of fun prints!

A Summer Vision

Summer is here and that means it's time to think about summer safety for ourselves and our kids. Most of us think about this as part of our daily routine. It's our goal as parents to keep our kids safe as they ride bikes, swim, play outside, and visit family and friends but how often do we think about protecting the unseen parts of our kids - the insides of their eyes? I know I don't think about it nearly as often as I should.

Unfortunately, we are forgetting to protect a very important part of our children's future. Some of the dangers of UV exposure to the eyes are sunburned eyes, cataracts, and age-related macular degeneration. That's some pretty serious consequences for a danger with a fairly simple solution. So what do we need to do? Add sunglasses to our daily dress routine.

What are the most important times and places to make sure you're equipped with  the coolest shades? Anytime your outside is a good start but here are a few things that the vision council wants to mention that you might not have thought of causing more trouble for your eyes.

And here are some tips they suggest for helping you pick out the perfect pair of shades for yourself and your little ones. Remember, if you follow these three simple guides you'll be sure to find something that works well for your lifestyle.

For more tips and tricks on caring for your eyes so they last a lifetime make sure you check out The Vision Council's webiste. They provided this information and have a ton more available to help you care for a very important part of you body. They have everything from statistics, to tips to buying glasses, to lists of all the hottest trends. You'll be very glad you stopped by!

The Best for Dad - Only at Cabela's + Giveaway

This is a Fashionista Event and a promotional item was provided to me. 

Hosts for this event are Still Blonde after all these Years and ModlyChic.

Guess what ... Spring is here, the kids are out of school, and that means it's time to get ready for the next big event, Father's Day. This year as I plan out our Father's Day surprises I am very excited that I have a new place to shop in our little town. That's right, we finally have a Cabela's and now it will be even easier to fulfill the wish lists of the Father's in my life.

Cabela's has always known how important father's are and this year they are helping make it possible for every family to spoil their dads from June 11 to June 21 with amazing savings on the best outdoor equipment. I got a little sneak peak and was very excited to see a little bit of everything including fishing rods, sleeping bags, optics, grills and much more will be available during Cabela's Father's Day Sale. Don't worry, if you're not quite sure what Dad needs Cabela's has you covered. They have put together a Father's Day Gift Guide to help you pick the perfect new toy for the man in your life.

I just know you'll want to shop Cabela’s Father’s Day Sale and save up to 50%. Here's a preview of some of my favorites and things I know are on my man's wish list. Which option do you think I should pick?

We really like buying Father's Day gifts that the whole family can enjoy together (that's the whole point of being a dad right) so the Eagle's Camp Family Voyager 8-Person Tent at $50 off would be a great option for our family. We have lots of great times camping together and a new tent would fit the bill perfectly.

Another must-have-soon item at our house is the Blackstone 36" Griddle Station. This is a great way to cook all those meals that we love to do. Hubby is quite the camp chef and he would love some new tools to help him out.

There are so many other great options I could go on for hours. Just head on over and see all the great ideas for spoiling your dad this year. Make sure you visit Cabela's and then check out Coupons .com for more great Father’s Day deals.

Wait, before you leave I have one last thing to mention - a giveaway! Make sure you fill out the form below to be entered to win $300 worth of Cabela's gift cards. Here's your chance to fill everything on your wish list soon!

#UltraHug Take 2

Don't you just love snuggling with a baby or cute kid? I know I just love cuddling with my children - specially when they are sleeping and I can really hold them close. Most of the time my sleepy snuggle time happens as I carry kids in from the car after a long day of summer fun. One of our favorite places to go is Grandma's house but the local park, zoo, and library are also visited often.

Unlike me, Dad is a favorite person to snuggle with at our house. He no sooner walks through the door and he has kids all over wanting hugs. Sometimes it can get pretty funny! Recently we have had the opportunity to enter some of our favorite snuggle pictures to help our favorite community projects get a grant from Huggies.

Currently Huggies is bringing baby cuddles to a whole new level of fun with their #UltraHug project. Participating is easy! Simply take a selfie of you and your baby snuggling and use #UltraHug and nominate the community project of your choice on Instagram or Twitter. From April 20th until June 25th, 2015, Huggies will be accepting all of these photos and featuring them in a collage on the project page. On July 6th, voting will begin to narrow down the 20 finalists to 10 winners who will receive a $2000 grant from Huggies for their nominated community initiative. Let's get those great projects nominated now!

Embarrassing but Necessary - The Untold Story + Giveaway!

Sometimes as a mom there are things we just don't like to talk about. You know, when you get to the store and realize your child has poop up their back. Or that time when your child threw up all over at church. The truth is, life happens, and mom's understand. Most other women aren't looking at you with dislike, they are thinking "how can I help?" and if its me nearby, know I may not be brave enough to offer assistance (yes, I'm shy) but I will be praying for you.

One of those embarrassing things we get to deal with as moms is bladder leakage. It's not attractive, we don't like talking about it, and many of us probably don't even like to admit that it's a problem we face. It's a good thing we love those kids, most of the time, because most of us know where the root of the problem started.

Thankfully, there are others that understand our plight. This month we are excited to be helping to celebrate Depend's second year of Underwareness. As part of this celebration they are supporting women with bladder leakage by donating up to $3 million to advance the research and education of bladder leakage. With their low rise, Active Fit briefs, with an underwear-like look, fit and fill Depends has our backs and knows what we need to make it through our life as a mom.

Orajel for Tots and More with Smilestones + Giveaway + Coupon

The weather is starting to warm up, the flowers are blooming, my lawn needs to be mowed... yep, it must be spring and at the Kerr house that means it is also the beginning of Birthday season. This year, I was thrilled when Orajel™ Kids invited me to participate in their Smilestones program. We were very excited that at the beginning of this fun, birthday season one of our favorite brands is giving away an ultimate birthday party to one great winner and that entering is as easy as sharing your favorite birthday photo. You'll want to make sure you enter their Smilestones Birthday Sweepstakes today!

The even better news is that besides this great giveaway there are lots of other amazing reasons to love Orajel Kids. One of the things that always comes with birthdays at our house is yearly photos and Orajel helps us prepare for those fun moments too by making sure all our smiles are perfect. Whether your child is teething, learning to brush, or starting to brush on his/her own, Orajel Kids has you covered during every stage of oral development making it the perfect solution for growing families.

Like most kids, Kerr kids are very picky when it comes to toothpaste. Sometimes it is a struggle to get them to brush their teeth simply because they are tired and cranky but I have found that having a toothpaste they like can be a big help in my ability to win the battle. The boys specifically don't like just any brand or flavor but when I buy Orajel I know it will always be a hit. The price is good, the flavor is good, the characters make it fun, the function is amazing, and the best part is that they have products to fit the needs of all the kids in our family!

If you are anxious to try Orajel products with your family you can find a coupon code here to help get you started!
