Fun stuff in the Everyday Life of a Busy Mom & Entrepreneur
I found this fun website through my Twitter friend @naomadoriguzzi.? Santa and his reindeer are being? virtually tracked on Christmas Eve as he travels the world giving gifts to all the children.? You can even watch short news clips of him as he flies over the pyramids in Egypt, through the Alps in Germany, past the Eiffel Tower in Paris, and much more.? When I last checked he was in Guinea.? Find out where he is now!
Children need to be protected and Kay Green the creator of My Precious Kid has come up with an innovative solution that every parent should invest in. It is called the Child Safety Pack.
The Child Safety Pack was designed to help protect children when in situations such as car accidents, getting lost, traveling, or even just being alone with a babysitter.
It includes the following:
FREE Child DNA Fingerprint Kit:
This entire kit is only $15.99.? They also offer a Child Safety Pack Plus which includes everything listed above as well as a Toothprint Dental Impression Kit for only $24.99.
It is interesting to think that 90% of our pets have identification on them at all times, but only 2% of children have identification on them.? This is scary, especially in this day and age.
Kay’s mission is to provide ?A Gift of Safety – child safety and baby gear products for your precious child.?
I was so blessed to receive a complimentary Child ID Card in the mail from My Precious Kid and I love how on the card itself it has a place to put a photo of your child, emergency numbers, allergies, and even doctor’s name & info.? There is also a place for the parent to sign authorizing medical treatment for the child in case the parent is absent.
I was amazed to see all the great products they are offering on their site – car seats, potty training pants, craft kits, drinking bottles, and much much more.? So be sure to check out the My Precious Kid website as well as their Child Safety Blog and make the decision to keep your child safe no matter what the cost.
This is sooooo cool!? Your kids will love it, I know mine did!
All you have to do is input your child’s info, like name, age, what they want for Christmas, etc.
You can also upload a picture of your child
And after you are all done, Santa comes on with a video clip directed to your child as if he were talking right to them.
My kids were a bit confused at first because they are only 3 & 4, but they loved seeing their picture in his book.? Below is a shot of my daughter in Santa’s book.
Please feel free to watch my children’s personalized Santa videos below.

My daughter often asks to hold the baby and then asks for me to take their picture.? This happens about 10 times a day.? But I just couldn’t resist this time.? They all looked so cute.
Oh my goodness – I caught the baby smiling!
OK, now off to bed everyone, so mama can get some work done!? LOL
My baby boy is almost 2 months old.? He is my 3rd child, so I pretty much know the ins and outs of being a mom.? The hardest thing for me right now is definitely the lack of sleep.? But one thing I hardly ever hear anyone talk about is BURPING.
What a struggle it is after spending so much time feeding the baby and then anticipating a burp.? Five minutes – pat pat pat, Ten minutes – pat pat pat…..? still no burp.? I try everything – changing positions from shoulder to shoulder, having him sit up on my lap, laying him on his tummy over my legs, and back to the shoulder again….? still no burp.
It just about kills me at 2 in the morning after the baby drinks an entire 5 ounces and I can’t get a burp out of him.? I am half asleep and fighting the urge just to put him back in his bed and forget about it.? I have done this on a few occasions and I suffered the consequences of having a very gassy baby.? Not Good!
I researched quite a bit and did not find any particular “secret” to burping.? Most websites listed the 3 main burping positions and suggested trying all of them until the baby burps.
1.? Over your shoulder
2.? Sitting up on your lap
3.? Laying down on their stomach on your lap
They also said that some babies will like certain positions better.? But MY baby just seems to be a HARD TO BURP BABY.? I have tried it all!
I also read that breastfed babies have less gas than bottle fed babies.?? Bottle fed babies somehow get more air when feeding.? A trick to help with this is to feed the baby in a more upright position.
I would love to hear your suggestions.?? I am desperately in need of some good advice in the burping area.? HELP PLEASE!!
