Love, Life and Appreciation

A few weeks ago, I became part of the BzzAgent program. The BzzAgent program is a word of mouth company that involves filling out surveys and being matched to review products that fit the surveys you fill out. We you are matched you have the opportunity to join a campaign.  I officially became a Bzz Agent on January 14 and three days later I received my first invitation by email, to a campaign. That campaign was Glade Expressions.

The email explained what I'd be receiving as part of the campaign as well as an option to the campaign homepage on the BzzAgent website. The email stated that I would be sent a BzzKit which included a FREE coupon for a Glade Expressions Fragrance Mist Starter Kit, a FREE coupon for a Glade Expressions Oil Diffuser Starter Kit and plenty of coupons to share with friends and family.
 When I went to the campaign homepage I learned more about the product. I decided to opt-in and five days later the shipment was sent via USPS. I got the package not long after that. Here's a few pictures of what I received:



 Over a month later and the oil diffuser still smells great. There is still a little bit of oil left. The design of the diffuser is very pretty and fits well with the house setting. The set up was very easy too. I  put the diffuser in the living room, shown here:



It made the living room smell nice but the smell was not carried further than that. The fragrance mist smells wonderful as well. Odor was overcome by a refreshing sent. The fragrance mists also come in Cotton & Italian Mandarin, Fuji Apple & Cardamom Spice, Starlit Evening, Spring Showers, Garden Sunshine and Vibrant Bloom and Lavender & Juniper Berry. The oil diffusers come in Fuji Apple & Cardamom Spice and Lavender & Juniper Berry.

Though I am pleased with the results of the fragrance mist, I am a little disappointed with the oil diffuser. The scent does not diffuse very far from the diffuser itself. The coupons were very nice and I did share them with friends and family.

I recently got my Spring Yuzen recently and I must say, I believe Yuzen is the best subscription box service out there. Though the cost of the box might be a little pricey ($26 for subscription), the products included are wonderful for trying out. The next box won't be available until May :-(


Here's the box:


Spa Technologies Marine Repair Cream and Naturopathica Espresso Mud Body Scrub.  The repair cream feels very light and has a wonderful smell. I use it at night. I like the product but the price for the full amount is quite high. I have not tried the body scrub and though I'm not a big fan of coffee, I'm going to still try this.

Essence of Vali Eau de Parfum. Though I am not a fan of these sample tubes, the perfume had a very nice floral scent and was a wonderful pick me up.

Overall I feel that this box was well worth the price. 

Disclaimer: I purchased this box with my own money and was not monetarily compensated for this review. Opinions are honest and are completely my own.

Gosh it's been busy these past few weeks. I apologize for not updating. Yesterday was May's two month doctor visit and she is doing great! Her weight is in the 95th percentile and her height is in the 97th percentile for her age. She's also been hitting her milestones and she's keeping her head up more and more each day.

We have a rattle and she's holding on that more. She's shaking it slightly, then she looks at me and drops it, like, "Mom, what am I supposed to do with this?" She's still so alert and we love having conversations with her. Many times we'll find her talking to her hand. She's too cute.  We got professional pics of her taken at the mall about a week ago and we got those pics back the other day. They came out wonderful.

Here's a few of the pictures:




May we love you so much!!!

Happy late Valentine's Day by the way <3

Finally got a good picture of her smiling :-) Many more smiles to come.

Back in November, I wrote an entry about a cute language learning program for children called Dino Lingo. I was introduced to this language program by Influsenter. I had viewed their material on their Youtube page and really liked what I saw, so I wrote about their service. In doing this, I received the Dino Lingo brand badge on Influsenter as part of the Brand Challenge. The Brand Challenge said that the first 50 members to complete the challenge would be getting a free DVD from Dino Lingo.  Soon after writing the entry, I got the badge.  I also received an email from Dino Lingo stating that I'd be receiving a free language program DVD in the language of my choice.

Yesterday I got the DVD.  I chose English as my language and the DVD I received was Introduction to English for Kids: Animals. The DVD is 35 minutes long and me, Rex and May watched a little bit of it. The intro features cute dinosaurs and the tone is very inviting. I like how the DVD features what the animal is with both still images and moving images. The animal name is also repeated numerous times which is good. There is also numbers that are taught. We'll definitely play this DVD for May when she gets older. She looked like she was intrigued by the moving pictures. Gosh she'll be 2 months in 7 days!!! Thanks Dino Lingo and Influsenter for this complimentary DVD. Dino Lingo also offers flash cards, plush toys, posters and coloring books. Once again I'll say check them out :-)
