Must Have: Dr. Carey's Baby Care Kit Review & Giveaway 04/01 CLOSED WINNER

CONGRATULATIONS TO ....

RACHEL!

An e-mail has been sent to Rachel and she has 48 hours to respond. 

Thanks to all those who entered!

*random.org was used to choose the winner

If you are pregnant or have a baby, you will want to read this review and participate in this amazing giveaway for Dr. Carey's Baby Care Kit:

The Dr. Carey's Baby Care Kit includes baby products essential to baby care basics.  Starting out with a 96 page baby care book filled with practical explanations to mom and dad's most frequently asked questions with more than 120 photos showing typical stages of baby development and minor baby health issues.  It even comes with a keepsake decorated box to store all your baby's memorable moments.  You can see actual pictures and a table of contents of the book here.

Even though I'm not a new mom, I see the value in this book with the actual pictures and I can imagine how a new mom would cling to Dr. Carey's baby care book.  The detailed pictures of such conditions like rashes is easier to try to pinpoint when you can see an actual picture of the rash.  The book is a goldmine of information for both new and experienced moms to read and cherish.

One of the items in the kit that drew me to the kit was the squirt bottle for homemade saline solution.  I have an asthmatic at home and keeping her nose cleared when she has a cold is essential.  In fact, any baby should have clear breathing during colds and this squirt bottle allows an alternative choice compared to store bought versions.

The kit comes with everything a new parent needs and it is even great for those with experience.  Every item in this great baby care kit is something you will use with a new baby.

• Dr. Carey's™ Baby Blanket - the book even shows you how to properly swaddle your baby with great illustrations.
• A+D Ointment which most moms know how great this is on babies.
• Hawaii Medical’s GumDrop™ Pacifier - this pacifer is used in hundreds of hospitals.  The low profile fits a newborn's face better and is lightweight.
• Squirt Bottle for Homemade Saline Solution - As nature’s best decongestant, nasal saline is easy to make and simple to use with Dr. Carey’s clear directions. This is a must have for stopped up noses!
• Digital Thermometer - Dr. Carey explains more about fevers in the book.  This will be handy as most parents panic when it comes to fevers but Dr. Carey's advice and information will help to ensure you are doing the right thing at the right time.
• 
  
  Nose Suction Bulb - every house with babies and young children need these!  Not the most pleasant thing to do but a clean, clear nose helps children get healthier.

Holey Donuts February Review & Giveaway 2/28

Have you heard of Holey Donuts?  If you are on the blogosphere, you probably have!  They are a healthy way to enjoy what is normally little packed full sin pills of greatness for your taste buds but bad for your butt!  

The Review:

I received complimentary samples of Holey Donuts and was skeptical on how good donuts frozen and received in the mail could be good?  I was so wrong!

I received the Sampler Favorite B, Jumbo Reduced Fat Cinnamon Buns (Assortment #7) and Reduced Fat Vanilla Frosted Boston Cream (Assortment #17).

My favorites were the Jumbo Cinnamon Buns and the Vanilla Frosted Boston Cream donuts.  Both were tender, moist and amazingly good.  I can't seem to find a good Boston Cream donut where I live so this was such a treat!  The amount of filling was just right whereas some Boston Cream donuts are skimpy with the cream but these were perfect.  The Cinnamon Buns were flaky, tasty, moist and very good.  After they thawed out, I warmed them in the microwave and it was heavenly!

My children loved the ones with sprinkles and chocolate chips.  They wanted more so I guess I'll have to buy some!

The shipping method allowed my donuts to arrive still frozen as they were meant to be.  The cooler is great in that it can be reused for bringing back something that needs to be kept cold or in the case of my husband, for fishing.

Holey Donuts offers a huge selection of donuts to appeal to any taste.  They are fresh, soft and aren't missing the taste of being reduced fat.  If you are a donut lover, you have to try these as they help to remove some of the guilt while leaving all of the pleasure!


The Giveaway:

In this round of giveaways, Holey Donuts is giving away a PRIZE PACK to one lucky reader!  Sound good?

The February Love Assortment consists of 4 boxes of their latest, best selling, super yummy Holey Donuts! Low Fat Treats and $250 Holey Donuts! store credit good for 1 year. 

It's easy to enter:

A little about Holey Donut:

Did you know the average donut has 15-20 grams of fat and as much as 480 calories?

Our patented cooking process avoids deep frying, creating a light, fluffy donut with as little as 3-4 grams of fat and 150-250 calories. You'd actually have to eat 4 of our full-sized, delicious donuts to get the amount of fat in just one traditional donut. What's more amazing is that we do not use any artificial sweeteners or fat substitutes to make our great tasting donuts. Unlike other "lite" or low fat foods, nothing about these donuts tastes low fat.

Our donuts are hand-made, flash frozen and delivered via express mail to arrive at your door, picture perfect and delicious! Keep in your freezer for a great low fat and low calorie treat anytime!

Free shipping today, February 23, 2010!

• Order any 3 to 5 assortments of our award winning low fat donuts,100 calorie cinnamon bun middles or great tasting low fat donut holes and get FREE SHIPPING TODAY!
• Then in the coupon code box enter code FRSH hit recalculate and enjoy the savings!

*Disclaimer:  I received complimentary Holey Donuts to try from the sponsor.  The opinions reflected in my post are my own and no other form of compensation was provided.
