			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-family: Arial;font-size: small">What’s the first thing you do when you get out of the shower {after you dry off, of course!}? Look in the mirror…or wipe the fog from the mirror to try to look in it, only to have it fog up again within seconds! No more, my friends!</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span style="font-family: Arial;font-size: small"><a href="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/31781_127607800607446_127607620607464_169447_897922_n.jpg"><img style="margin-left: 0px;margin-right: 0px;border-width: 0px" src="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/31781_127607800607446_127607620607464_169447_897922_n_thumb.jpg" border="0" alt="31781_127607800607446_127607620607464_169447_897922_n" width="240" height="111" align="left" /></a> Our patent-pending design is simple yet most effective. Fill the mirror’s reservoir with hot water from your shower head and you’re done. </span><span style="font-family: Arial;font-size: small">It&#8217;s ideal for close shaves, cleansing and exfoliating, removing make-up, tweezing and more. </span><span style="font-family: Arial;font-size: small">No chemicals or special coatings required. Our shower mirror is designed to remain fogless and maintenance-free for a lifetime. </span><span style="font-family: Arial;font-size: small">No more cleaning up messy, hair-filled sinks. </span><span style="font-family: Arial;font-size: small">No more standing over your sink dripping wet while you shave, tweeze, or remove your make-up. Get it all done in the shower and be done</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial;font-size: small">Our Mirror was designed after evaluating ALL the problems that people have complained about in the past. The two biggest complaints are fogging and falling off the wall. We eliminated this by adding a water chamber to the back of the mirror so that the mirror becomes the same temperature as the shower &#8211; eliminating fog. We also took away the problem of unreliable suction cups by using a removable silicone adhesive with a strong double sided tape &#8211; which will not damage walls. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: arial;font-size: small">I am LOVING our new <a href="www.ToiletTreeProducts.com " target="_blank">Fogless Shower Mirror</a> from ToiletTree Products, it is so great! I installed it right in the shower very quickly and it looks really nice! It has a pretty, sleek design and doesn’t take up much space in the shower. It also works like a charm! All you have to do is fill the reservoir with hot water from the shower and it will not fog up during your shower! It has been so helpful when my husband shaves in the shower, he absolutely loves it! Of course, before this he was using an old Volkswagen rearview mirror from one of our old bugs…NO LIE! So the Fogless Shower Mirror is a huge step up for him! And for myself, it’s just so nice to be done with a shower and have a mirror that isn’t all fogged up to look into! </span><span style="font-family: arial;font-size: small"> </span></p>

<p><span style="color: #3366ff;"><em>In  order for the shoe to squeak a child must walk heal to toe. This  encourages crawlers to begin walking and toddlers and young children to  walk properly and not up on their toes.</em></span><span style="color: #3366ff;"><em>Not only is the shoe functional and fun for children, but parents love  the safety feature of knowing where their child is at all times.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #3366ff;"><em>For those occasions when the shoe needs to be silent, the squeaker can be removed by an adult.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #3366ff;"><em>Unique style, great quality.</em></span></p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><em><span style="color: #3366ff;"><a href="http://wesqueak.net" target="_blank">Wee Squeak shoes</a> are designed for children and parents alike. Our shoes  actually make a fun squeak sound as the child walks. A cushion in the  heal squeezes air through a tiny nozzle making the squeak sound.</span></em><a rel="attachment wp-att-12079" href="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/2010/09/09/childrens-shoes-squeak/yc2058pk/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-12079 alignright" title="YC2058PK" src="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/YC2058PK-300x229.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="229" /></a></p>
<p>I am such a sucker for cute girlie <a href="http://wesqueak.net" target="_blank">children shoes</a>. Everywhere I go I am on the look out for cute shoes. Wee Squeak Shoes are my favorite and I recently received a pair for the new baby. Oh they are adorable! It was hard for me to choose but I did it&#8230;only took me an hour. I chose the  <a href="http://wesqueak.net/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&amp;Store_Code=WS&amp;Product_Code=YC2058PK12&amp;Category_Code=beibi_girls" target="_blank">BURKE PINK BABY SHOE</a>. Aren&#8217;t they the cutest? I can just see her now in them, oh and hear her. I love the color since her whole new wardrobe consists of &#8216;pink&#8217; and they are certain to look cute with jeans or a dress. The inside is very soft and will fit so comfortably on her little piggies. Thanks Wee Squeak for making such adorable smart shoes for kids and babies!</p>
<p><span style="color: #3366ff;">Here are a few more on my list &#8216;to buy&#8217; for the new baby:</span></p>

<p>You know it&#8217;s not too early to start thinking&#8230;.Halloween! With a chill in the air setting in each evening, that means fall is just around the corner and that means <span style="color: #ff6600;">TrIcK-oR-tReAtInG</span> with the little ones. Where we live it tends to get pretty cold. I think it was around 60 degrees last Halloween when we went out. So I know my little guy was cold. We didn&#8217;t stay out very long due to his costume not being very warm. I wanted to make sure my little guy gets a warm <a href="http://www.anytimecostumes.com/" target="_blank">Halloween costume</a> this year so he will be able to trick or treat his heart out.</p>
<p>anytimecostumes.com was so sweet and sent us a costume of our choosing for the little guy. We choose Tigger since that is his favorite character right now. I {heart} it. First off, because it is very plush and warm &amp; second because it is so cute. It features an adorable striped bodysuit with a zipper back making it easy to put on and off when going to the grandparents and staying for awhile in the warm house. The hood is also attached so we can drop it down while inside or when he doesn&#8217;t want it on and I don&#8217;t have to keep track of it. It fits him nicely and he is so cute and warm which makes mommy very happy. He will definitely get a lot of candy this year in it and that will make for one happy little boy!</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Today, anytimecostumes.com is giving one lucky reader&#8230;.</span></h2>

<blockquote><p><span style="font-family: Arial;font-size: small">Come along with Max and Ruby on the new DVD adventure <strong><em>Max &amp; Ruby: Everybunny Loves Winter!</em></strong>, which features four all-new episodes never before released on DVD. In these winter-themed episodes, Max and Ruby play and have fun in the snow, make gingerbread houses, and even play duck, duck, goose!  Created by Nickelodeon Home Entertainment and distributed by Paramount Home Entertainment, <strong><em>Max &amp; Ruby: Everybunny Loves Winter! </em></strong>will be released on September 21, 2010 and sold for the suggested retail price of $16.99. This is a great addition to the <em><strong>Max &amp; Ruby</strong></em> collection and will certainly get kids in the holiday spirit. Nickelodeon’s <strong><em>Max &amp; Ruby</em></strong> is a half-hour animated comedy series based on the children&#8217;s books by Rosemary Wells. Each episode centers on Max, a determined three-year-old bunny, and his big sister, Ruby, a smart, goal-oriented seven-year-old. The show offers an empowering message for children by showing Max and Ruby playing together and resolving their differences in ways that are respectful and supportive. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial"><span style="font-size: small">Nickelodeon, now in its 31st year, is the number-one entertainment brand for kids. It has built a diverse, global business by putting kids first in everything it does. The company includes television programming and production in the United States and around the world, plus consumer products, online, recreation, books and feature films. Nickelodeon’s U.S. television network is seen in more than 100 million households and has been the number-one-rated basic cable network for 16 consecutive years.</span></span></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="font-size: small"><span style="font-family: Arial;color: #000000">Ava had never seen an episode of Max &amp; Ruby until we got our Max &amp; Ruby Everybunny Loves Winter DVD. She absolutely loves it and I wish we had seen it previously! As soon as I popped it in the DVD  player she was immediately sucked into the adorable world of Max &amp; Ruby! The DVD is full of several fun, wintery episodes featuring Max &amp; Ruby. Ever since watching the DVD, Ava has been constantly asking me for winter, snow, Christmas, and Max &amp; Ruby, of course! This DVD really is a fun way to get kids ready for winter and they will adore Max &amp; Ruby They are so cute and have so many fun adventures together! I am so glad we have this new DVD to add to our collection, especially with the winter months quickly approaching! </span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>The folks  	  at KidCo know that your child&#8217;s safety is your number one priority. That&#8217;s  	  why KidCo specializes in designing products to keep your child secure, at  	  home, or on the road. The KidCo Convertible Crib Bed Rail brings the  	  company&#8217;s safety expertise to bear on your tot&#8217;s sleeptime. The Kidco Crib  	  Bed Rail can be used with most convertible cribs and installing it is a  	  snap! Makes the transition from crib to big-kid bed less stressful for  	  both you and your child.<a rel="attachment wp-att-12055" href="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/2010/09/07/bedtime-safety/bed-rail/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12055" title="BED-RAIL" src="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/BED-RAIL.jpg" alt="" width="260" height="300" /></a></em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">With the new baby arriving this Fall, it&#8217;s time to start thinking about transitioning our son from his crib to a toddler bed. Mostly since I don&#8217;t see the sense in buying another crib when he is just about at the right age to move into a big boy bed. My first concern was his safety, I am very strict about making sure I have the right <a href="http://www.mypreciouskid.com" target="_blank">child safety products</a> to keep him safe. I was super worried about him rolling out of the bed since he moves from end to end through out the night in his crib right now. My Precious Kid sent us the <a href="http://www.mypreciouskid.com/toddler-bed-rail.html" target="_blank">Kidco Toddler Bed Rail</a> to help ease the transition from crib to toddler bed within his crib. When it arrived I was able to pull it out of the box and put together (no tools required) within 15 minutes. I found it very easy to work. This bed rail will give me so much peace of mind once we transition him. Thanks Kidco for making such great products to keep our little ones safe!<a rel="attachment wp-att-12057" href="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/2010/09/07/bedtime-safety/mypreciouskid-nocaps-150/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12057" title="mypreciouskid-nocaps-150" src="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/mypreciouskid-nocaps-150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="143" /></a></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff00ff;"><strong><em>DORA THE EXPLORER: DORA’S SLUMBER PARTY</em></strong><strong> </strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff00ff;"><strong>Available on DVD on 9.14.10</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong> </strong><span style="color: #ff99cc;">It’s time to curl up with blankets and teddy bears as Dora and her friends get together for a sleepover in <strong><em>Dora the Explorer: Dora’s Slumber Party</em></strong>, a compilation containing six of Dora’s bedtime adventures.  Join Dora and her friends as they search for their bedtime stuffed animals, wish upon a star, and wake up their friends during this exciting slumber party.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Here&#8217;s Dora! One of the most popular Nickelodeon characters today! With over 2 hours of Dora adventures your little ones are sure to stay entertained. We had the opportunity to review this soon to be released DVD in our home and loved every minute of it. It is already a favorite. I love how Dora is helping kids learn all the while entertaining them. She takes us on all her wonderful bedtime adventures in this fun DVD collection.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p><span style="color: #ff00ff;"><strong><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Episodes include:</span></em></strong></span></p>
<p><strong><em>Boots’ Cuddly Dinosaur</em></strong><strong> </strong></p>
<p>As bedtime approaches during Dora and Boots’ sleepover, Boots can’t find his cuddly dinosaur.  The friends realize that Boots’ dinosaur must have fallen out of his bag at Play Park earlier that day. In their quest to help Boots find his cuddly dinosaur, Dora and friends put baby animals to sleep by singing a Spanish lullaby, help Benny find all of his stuffed animals, soar through the air in a balloon, and make a wish on their friend Little Star.  With lots of help, Boots finally finds his cuddly dinosaur at Play Park, just in time for bed.</p>
<p><strong><em>Louder</em></strong></p>
<p>Every morning Red Rooster must wake the Sun from its deep slumber.  Dora and Boots decide to help Red Rooster get to the Highest Hill so he can wake up the Sun. Along the way the friends practice making lots of noise and wake up the frogs, the boat and the pigs.  With lots of practice, the friends wake the Sun just in time for morning.</p>
<p><strong><em>The Lost City</em></strong></p>
<p>Dora and her friends have lost their most precious toys and will do anything to get them back.  The friends discover that toys must go to the Lost City when they are lost, but the city is very hard to find. Dora and Boots embark on an Indiana Jones-like adventure as they race through the Number Pyramid and take a quick shortcut through the Jumbled Jungle.  If they find the Lost City, Dora will get back her lost teddy bear, and all her friends will find their favorite lost toys.</p>
<p><strong><em>Little Star</em></strong></p>
<p>As Dora and Boots get ready to make a wish on the first star that appears in the sky, the star falls.  It’s now up to Dora and Boots to bring Little Star back home to the Moon, so everyone can make their wish. They will have to take Little Star on a long journey over the Troll Bridge, and past Tico’s Tree to help get the star all the way back into the sky.</p>
<p>Song: “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star”</p>
<p><strong><em>Super Babies&#8217; Dream Adventure</em></strong></p>
<p>As the Super Babies get ready for their nap, the Dream Fairy is nowhere to be found.  The Dream Fairy’s Golden Rooster got locked out of the Dream Castle and couldn’t wake her up, so she was still a sleep.  The Super Babies decide to wake up the Dream Fairy by embarking on a journey through the Giant’s Forest, up to Dragon Mountain and finally to Dream Castle.  When the dream fairy is awoken with her Golden Rooster, she delivers happy naptime dreams for all of the babies.</p>
<p><strong><em>Dora Had a Little Lamb</em></strong></p>
<p>Mary had a Little Lamb, but now Little Lamb is lost.  Dora and Boots jump into a big book of Nursery Rhymes to bring Little Lamb back to her best friend, Mary.  Along the way to Mary’s House, Dora, Boots and Little Lamb pick pickled peppers with Peter Piper; help the Itsy Bitsy Spider climb up the Water Spout; ride a cow over the Moon; put Humpty Dumpty back together again; and even catch a ride in a motorized bath tub.<a rel="attachment wp-att-12498" href="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/2010/09/07/slumber-party-dora-the-explorer-dvd-review/nickelodeon-newlogo/"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12498" title="nickelodeon-newlogo" src="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/nickelodeon-newlogo-300x88.png" alt="" width="300" height="88" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">Lately, I have been reading a lot about <a href="http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/realmomsrealviews" target="_blank">Swagbucks</a> on other mommy blogs and it peaked my curiosity. Most of them are telling me how they earn enough gift cards by using <a href="http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/realmomsrealviews" target="_blank">Swagbucks</a> to buy their families entire Christmas? One mom even bought her kids a new Mac Computer with her earnings. I thought to myself..No Way! Is this possible? But after doing some research myself and talking to a few blogging friends, I am thrilled to say&#8230;Yes Way! It is possible!<a rel="attachment wp-att-13062" href="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/2010/09/07/buying-christmas-this-year-with-swagbucks/christmas-presents/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13062" title="christmas-presents" src="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/christmas-presents.jpg" alt="" width="175" height="175" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">So today I wanted to introduce my RMRV readers to <a href="http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/realmomsrealviews" target="_blank">SWAGBUCKS</a>!</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">Here&#8217;s just how it works:</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">1st:</span> <a href="http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/realmomsrealviews" target="_blank">Sign up for Swagbucks</a>! You will even get 30 Swagbucks just for signing up&#8230;this will get you started on your way to earning gift cards and prizes.<br />
</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">2nd:</span> You simply search the web using their search engine and you earn <a href="http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/realmomsrealviews" target="_blank">Swagbucks</a>! You can do this by going to the Swagbucks home page or do what I did and download the <a href="http://swagbucks.com/?cmd=sb-plugins" target="_blank">Swagbucks toolbar</a>. There are also other ways to earn such as surveys, polls, shopping. I haven&#8217;t tried any of them out but when I do I will report.<br />
</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">That&#8217;s it!</span> You will start earning Swagbucks the day you sign up. Then when you accumulate enough of them you can cash them in for gift cards, prizes, and more. Plus every Friday is Mega-Swagbucks Friday. So you can earn even more by searching on Fridays!</strong><em><br />
</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">So far I have earning (2) $5 Amazon gift cards. The great thing is I didn&#8217;t have to do anything more than I already do.. I will be using my gift cards to buy my little guy a birthday present for his party that is coming up soon. Hey a FREE present. You can&#8217;t beat that!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">+Plus once you start using <a href="http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/realmomsrealviews" target="_blank">Swagbucks</a> you can invite your friends and for every Swagbuck they earn, you earn. Up to 1,000 of them! Sweet!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://swagbucks.com/refer/realmomsrealviews" target="_top"><img class="aligncenter" title="Search &amp; Win" src="http://prodegebanners.sitegrip.com/images/swagbucks-120x240Alt6.jpg" border="0" alt="Search &amp; Win" /></a></p>

<p>We are big baseball fans in our home. It&#8217;s my hubby&#8217;s favorite sport. So when Monkey Business Sports offered to send us their <a href="http://www.monkeybusinesssports.com/" target="_blank">E-Z bat</a> we were thrilled. Our little guy is about to turn two and he loves anything that has to do with baseball. When our E-Z bat arrived we took out little guy outside and his daddy began to teach him just how to use it. I was amazed at how quickly he picked it up and in no time at all he didn&#8217;t need his dad&#8217;s help. He could hit the ball all on his own. How the bat works is you slide the ball onto the foam bat, and then hit away. The ball flies off and lots of smiles were found in our backyard. We love that it is teaching him the coordination of hitting the ball so when he starts t-ball he will have a basic concept of what to do. It is a new favorite when we are outside hanging out in the backyard.<span style="font-family: Arial; color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #0000ff;"> </span><a rel="attachment wp-att-12985" href="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/2010/09/07/e-z-bat-monkey-business-sports-giveaway/monkeybusiness_ezbatlifestyle1hr/"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #0000ff;"> </span></a><a rel="attachment wp-att-12986" href="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/2010/09/07/e-z-bat-monkey-business-sports-giveaway/print-3/"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #0000ff;"> </span></a><a rel="attachment wp-att-12985" href="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/2010/09/07/e-z-bat-monkey-business-sports-giveaway/monkeybusiness_ezbatlifestyle1hr/"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12985" title="MonkeyBusiness_EZBatLifestyle1HR" src="http://www.realmomsrealviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/MonkeyBusiness_EZBatLifestyle1HR-300x264.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="264" /></a></span></p>
