PawdPet Review

Pawd Pet Review- Stuffed animal cuddly toy that also acts as a magnetic iPhone or iPad holder! Great for kids!! Read more at Gracefulmommy.com

I’ve recently stumbled upon a great product that I thought my Graceful Mommy fans would love to hear about! This product is called PawdPet. Its a huggable, snuggly, stuffed animal that acts as an phone or tablet carrier. Gracie is only 10 months old so she doesn’t watch too much TV, but we do occasionally put on Mickey Mouse Clubhouse or YouTube songs on for her to watch.

PawdPet comes in 4 different animals: an owl, fox, koala, and bunny. We received Mr. Hoots (the owl) from PawdPet. I think the owl is so cute! Any kid would love this. They are cute, huggable and super soft. Which is perfect for protecting your iPhone, iPod, or iPad (were an Apple family, can you tell?).

The PawdPet comes with a magnetic strip that you peel off and place on the back of your device. The device magnetically attaches to the belly of the stuffed animal so your child can watch shows or movies handsfree! You can put the PawdPet standing up tall or on it’s side!

Another really cool feature about PawdPet is there is a phone/tablet holder on the back of it! It has a buttoned, plush padded back pocket that stores your phone or tablet when your child is not using it! The back button is also magnetic so you know your device is safe in there. PawdPets also have adjustable straps on them so your child can easily carry it around! This is perfect for outings, trips + adventures!

While Gracie doesn’t really play on the phone or iPad yet, we definitely have used the PawdPet with her. She uses it as a cuddly toy to play with and snuggle. We hide things in the back pocket for her to find. Sometimes we will stand it up with a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse episode on! She really does love it. My favorite part is that the phone is magnetic. That means she can’t pick up my phone and chew on it (like she does with everything). The phone really is stuck, and she can’t pull it off. It’s a very strong magnet!

I think PawdPet is a great invention. It’s really great for older kids, especially in the car and for traveling!

Bath Time Essentials

When Gracie was a newborn, she was totally unsure about bath time. Sometimes she liked it, sometimes she screamed her head off the whole time. But somewhere around 4 months she started LOVING bath time. She has so much fun in the bath and now she learned to splash to it’s reallllly fun. LOL! I end up getting a whole bath, too because she splashes so much. Anyways, I thought I would share some of our favorite bath time products.

Bath time essentials for a baby! I love number 2- the SoapSox are so great! Read more at Gracefulmommy.com

1//Tubby Todd Soap– I did a full review on this soap here. I just love it! Love the smell, love how sudsy it is, love how long it lasts.

2//SoapSox – Guys- these things are amazing! They were actually on Shark Tank, too! It’s a 2-in-1 toy because it’s an awesome stuffed animal play toy, but also a sudsy wash cloth scrub! It’s seriously an awesome invention. One of those things that makes me go “umm why didn’t I think of this!!”.

It makes bath time so fun because while I’m washing Gracie, she thinks it’s hilarious having this animal all over her. It’s really easy to use in the bath. You actually “feed” the stuffed animal the soap. I’m serious. Each one has a mouth that you put the soap in. You can use your favorite bar of soap or liquid soap. I, of course, use Tubby Todd in ours. It’s the best soap to use because it’s the soap that gets the most sudsy (in my opinion!).

After you put the soap in, wet the SoapSox with water and work it into a lather. Then, put your fingers in the little side finger pouches and scrub! It’s so great!

After bath time, you can toss your SoapSox in the washer on gentle and then tumble dry. Now, it’s a fun toy to carry around and play with. 2-in-1 fun! I love how they are machine washable- it makes it so easy to clean. I love all the animals you can get. We have Harper the Hippo and Hunter the Alligator. Gracie loves them!

SoapSox is actually coming out with a brand new line called SoapPal. These are smaller animals (and super adorable) that can be fed liquid soap! They are so cute, I can’t wait to try one!

Also, I’ve teamed up with SoapSox for a great giveaway!! We are giving away a SoapSox to one lucky winner! Go to my instagram for all the details. It’s super easy to enter!

3//Bath cups– These are so simple, yet Gracie loves playing with them! 5 cups come in the pack and they are all different colors and sizes. I love how they all stack into each other so it saves space. You can stack the cups, put things inside them, scoop up water, and watch the water come out the bottom. Each cup has a different shape on the bottom so water comes out differently. Gracie loves scooping up water and watching it come out the bottom. So cute.

4//Mermaid Towel– I know I’ve mentioned this towel on the blog before. I just love it. I love the color, and especially love how BIG it is. All of our other bath towels don’t fit Gracie anymore. This one is perfect!

5//Nail Clippers – I always clip Gracie’s nails after the bath. They are so soft and she is so relaxed so she doesn’t really notice. I love these clippers the best!

Groovebook Review

Groovebook Review- A great way to preserve those precious photos! Read more at gracefulmommy.com

Okay, guys confession time: I take too many photos. But, if you follow me on instagram, snapchat, or my blog – you already know that. When Gracie was born, we invested in a new camera (Sony A6000) and it started to become a little hobby of mine to learn how to use it! About a million photos later, I feel like I’m getting the hang of it. I seriously practice taking photos every day. I just love being able to capture each moment with Gracie with high quality shots. It’s so much fun!

I take so many photos with my Sony A6000, then transfer them to my phone (with the built in camera wi-fi!!!!). I love having them on my phone because I can easily share to instagram or Facebook. But… I’ve run into a little problem. My phone keeps running out of storage because of my picture-overload situation. But, I think I’ve found the solution! You guys, I can’t wait to tell you about this company- Groovebook.

Some of you may have heard of Groovebook because they were on Shark Tank in January of 2014. This couple created an app that solves all of my picture problems! It’s so easy. You download the app. Then you upload 40-100 photos from your phone. Of course I fill up the 100 easily, but it’s nice to know you only need a minimum of 40. Then Groovebook takes your photos and puts them in an adorable photo book for FREE. All you have to pay is $2.99 for shipping. Three dollars for 100 photos printed out! It’s amazing!

The app is really easy to use. It’s as simple as selecting the photos you want and hitting upload. Honestly, it could not be easier. Ordering prints from walgreens is harder + more expensive.

Each month, you get a new Groovebook. The covers of the photo books are adorable. My first month I got the adorable coffee cup cover, which is so perfect for me as I’m always tired and drinking coffee! #momlife. I can’t wait to see what cover I get next month!

Groovebook really does solve a lot of my photo problems. I can get my favorite photos printed in my Groovebook and that frees up storage on my phone! Plus, it is so refreshing and fun to have photos printed out. I have so much stuff on my phone, so it’s SO nice to have physical photos of Gracie to look at.

I almost forgot to mention one of the best parts! The photos in the Groovebook are on easy-to-tear sheets! That means you can just tear out the photos if you want! I’m planning on leaving some in the book, and tearing some out to frame, do DIY projects with, and give to family members! Which reminds me… you can rip out photos to give to family, but you can also gift one of your monthly Groovebooks to a family member! How neat is that!

Another cool thing about the Groovebook is that the date, time, and location shows up on each picture. It’s not actually on the picture (which I love!), but it’s in the binding of each shot. This is great for remembering baby milestones! I know I’ll appreciate these dates when I’m looking back through old Groovebooks down the road.

I really recommend getting set up with Groovebook. Download the app, and get started uploading your favorite pics! Use code GRACEFULMOMMY to get your first Groovebook FREE!! After your first book, each book is only $2.99. You cannot beat that price!
