Flip flops are definitely my shoe of choice during the summer months. Whether we're at home, or out and about, you're sure to find me in a pair everywhere I go. I love how easy they are to slip on and off...not to mention the fact that they help keep my feet cool. The problem though, is that most flips flops I've tried are not very comfortable. I usually end with blisters and very sore feet. That's why I was super excited when I came across Feelgoodz!

Kyle Berner has never considered himself to be a closed-toe shoe kind of guy. He has always preferred flip flops wherever he goes. In December 2007, he found himself shopping in Thailand for a new pair of flip flops when he came across a display that read "Thailand's most comfortable, all-natural rubber flip-flop". Upon trying them on, he was sold! Together, he and his friend Joel hatched a plan and soon, Feelgoodz was born.

Features/Benefits:

• Made from all natural latex
• Recyclable
• Biodegradable
• Dyed naturally
• Molds to your feet
• Pillow soft and squishy
• Breathable and cool

Having read all about Feelgoodz on their website, I was very excited when I learned I was going to have the chance to review a pair! When they arrived, I couldn't wait to test them out.

I have to admit that I was a little skeptical as to how comfortable they would be. I mean, how comfortable can a pair of rubber flip flops really be, right?! Well...having had the chance to wear them several times since receiving them...on walks, to the zoo, the pool, etc...I can tell you that these are by far the most comfortable pair of rubber flip flops I have worn!

They are made of breathable 100% natural rubber that molds to the shape of your foot. The moment I put them on, I could tell that they fit differently than my other flip flops. Instead of keeping their flat shape, they really do shape to your foot more which make them very comfortable to wear!

I can't tell you how many times I've worn flip flops, only to take them off to very sore and blistered feet. I thought these might do the same, but I have had no problems! It doesn't matter if I'm in them at home, or wearing them while on a long walk...they are soft and the perfect shoe for summertime.

I am very impressed with the quality and comfort of Feelgoodz flip flops. They are also offered in great colors that are sure to go with almost anything in your wardrobe. I wear mine with almost everything...skirts, shorts, my swimsuit, etc. I would highly recommend checking them out if you're like me and enjoy wearing flip flops this time of year. Be sure to follow them on Facebook and Twitter as well!

Buy It: You can purchase Feelgoodz flip flops on their website for $29.99 in several different colors.

Coupon Codes: Feelgoodz has kindly offered two great coupon codes for A Mom's Balancing Act readers!

-$10 Off Coupon Code - Use the code "momsbalancingact" to receive $10 off your purchase! There are only 5 of these coupons and they are limited to 1 per customer. They're first come first serve, so be sure to place your order soon.

Father's Day is just around the corner, can you believe it?! I love having a special day set aside to let my own dad, as well as my husband know what great father's they are and how much they're appreciated. The thing is, I often have a hard time buying for them. I spend a lot of time browsing for the perfect gift, so shopping in the store is not an option when it's just me and my little ones. I have found it's much easier to shop online from the comfort of my own home. It's not only more convenient, but I can often find better deals this way too!

Whenever I'm going to be shopping for something online, I always turn to Coupon Trunk and their amazing selection of coupons and deals first. They update daily, so I'm always sure to find the most current discounts around. Shopping for Father's Day was no different. I went to Coupon Trunk and before I even began to search for specific coupons, I found help right there on their homepage. There is an article about finding unique gifts for a 'one of a kind' Dad and in it were some fantastic suggestions. The Sharper Image coupons was probably my favorite, as hubby loves anything to do with electronics, but I also appreciated the suggestion to check out the La Cense Beef deals too! What a unique gift that would be for a special father and an idea I hadn't considered before!

I appreciate the fact that Coupon Trunk not only helps me find the best deals, but they gave me some fantastic gift ideas as well! As a busy mom I appreciate this resource and all it has to offer. If you're still looking for the perfect Father's Day gift, or have any online shopping to do for that matter, and want to find the best deal...I would definitely recommend checking out Coupon Trunk!

So, how about you? Do you have a hard time deciding what to buy for Father's Day? What are some of your perfect gift ideas?

I am always thrilled when I come across a website that allows me to find a variety of products at affordable prices all in one place! That's why I was very impressed with OrangeOnions.com as I was searching out items for summer.


For those who are unfamiliar with Orange Onions, they are an online store offering thousands of products with a focus on gifts that fall into eight core categories: Home & Garden, Home Décor & Gifts, Kitchen & Dining, Crafts, Baby & Child, Toys & Electronics, Characters, and Occasions & Seasonal. I don't know about you...but almost everything I shop for online falls into this list somewhere. What I love, is that they offer brand name merchandise like Black & Decker, Enesco, Fisher Price, Lego, and many others. It's always nice when you have a selection to choose from that includes well known and trusted names like these.

OrangeOnions.com consistently offers everyday best deals. The Deal of the Day is where it's One Day, One Product, and One LOW Price! Items are priced up to 80% off...so it's definitely something worth checking out! They also offer a number of other promotions on a regular basis. For instance, their most current giveaway which couldn't have come at a better time with summer just around the corner...the Banzai Inflatable Obstacle Course Bouncer Giveaway! There are many ways to enter to win this bounce house valued at $399.99! You can visit OrangeOnions.com for more information on how.


Having had the chance to learn more about OrangeOnions.com, I am not only impressed with their products, but also their dedication to quality and service. Their mission is to offer products customers will love at deals you can't resist, without compromising customer service.

Whether you're looking to purchase something for your kids, the home, or something else...be sure to check out OrangeOnions.com. Their selection is amazing, and with Free Shipping on all orders over $89 and a flat shipping rate of $6.99 on all orders...you can't go wrong (please note that Orange Onions currently only ships to the contiguous United States). In my opinion, Orange Onions would be a great place to look for any summer items you're looking to buy this time of year.

Coupon Code: Orange Onions has kindly offered A Mom's Balancing Act readers coupon code, MBA20! This is good for 20% off anything they carry, with the exception of Lego products and gift cards. Be sure to act fast though...the coupon code expires on May 31, 2010!

Flirty Aprons offers super cute and stylish aprons! They are known for their amazing quality, which I recently learned is due to the fact that each one goes through a rigorous quality inspection. Sometimes, for minor reasons such as restitching, loose seams & pockets, and minor print flaws, some aprons do not make the cut. This is great news for those of us who would like more of these great aprons, because they currently have a small batch of 'irregular' aprons that they want to sell at seriously low prices! If you don't mind having a Flirty Apron with a minor flaw you may want to check out their Irregular Flirty Aprons Sale and pick up an 'irregular' Scalloped Sassy Red apron for just $12.99 while supplies last! To learn more about their irregular aprons and this fabulous deal, head over to Flirty Aprons today!

When Kaelyn was little, I didn't find a wrap or sling to be necessary most of the time. Not only was she very content playing on the floor with her toys, but she was also the only child and she had our undivided attention much of the time. With the birth of our son, I have found myself wishing I had a wrap many times. He's not only more of a cuddler and likes to be held, but he also has dealt with more gas and acid reflux...making it difficult for him to lie flat on his back at times.


I've read about, and seen, many different types of wraps and slings. The only thing we had was a carrier that did not work well with such a small baby. We were in need of something that would allow for me to carry him in an upright position at times, while still being able to keep an eye on Kaelyn and do some simple things around the house. As I searched, I came across the Moby Wrap and was thrilled when I found out I'd have the opportunity to review one!

Moby Wrap Inc. was founded in 2003 by parents with a passion for babywearing. They saw the need for a more comfortable, secure and versatile way to carry their infants. Moby Wrap Inc. has expanded its product line to include great designs offered in a variety of colors, prints and fabrics, including UV protected and organic cotton. It has become the most recognized wrap-style baby carrier on the market today.

We were sent the Moby Wrap in the Moss Color.
The Moby Wrap is a long piece of soft cotton that wraps around you to create a custom fitted baby carrier. Some of the features include:

• machine washable
• one-size versaitility
• for babies preemie to 35lbs (even twins)
• no straps, belts or buckles

Benefits:

• develops a strong and secure attachment
• helps meet baby's security needs
• enables parents to accomplish day-to-day tasks
• helps prevent colic
• naturally soothing
  

When I received it, I was very excited to try it out. I knew that keeping Kaden in an upright position, especially after he eats, was very important and more comfortable for him. Before the wrap, it was difficult (and hard on my back) to hold him and get other things done. As I opened the box, I was immediately impressed with the pouch it comes in....made of the same fabric/color as the Moby Wrap inside of it.


As I took the Moby Wrap out of the pouch, I fell in love with the super soft, high quality 100% cotton fabric. I could definitely tell that this was not only something that would last us a very long time, but would be gentle on our son's sensitive skin. I also found the Moby Wrap to be very easy to put on. Following the simple directions that came with it, I was able to try out many different carrying positions. And, here's the best part...Kaden absolutely loves it! If he's fussy and uncomfortable, I put him in the wrap and he almost instantly stops crying and usually falls asleep within minutes. I was a little skeptical as to the comfort of wearing him for extended amounts of time, but to my surprise I hardly notice that I'm even carrying him. It's been such a lifesaver at times (and a back saver too)!

What I love about the Moby Wrap is that it can be used with children birth-35 lbs. This means that if necessary, we also have a way to carry our daughter (who is not quite 35 lbs yet). I could see this coming in handy for both of the kids in many different situations...walking around the mall, going to the Zoo, etc. I have even taken it to church and it's come in very handy with Kaden.


Our daughter Kaelyn has seen me use it several times. She's at the fun age of pretend play and has also enjoyed trying to put it on and use it with her babies. As I searched the Moby website, I realized that they actually carry a Mini Moby Wrap in a child's size. This is definitely something I'd love to get for her at some point...isn't it cute?!

Overall, I am very impressed with the Moby Wrap. It is very easy to put on and custom-fits to my body which is greatly appreciated. Having a wrap that can be fitted to whoever is wearing it is pretty amazing. The best part is that our son loves it and it helps him to be more comfortable and happy. I would definitely recommend the Moby Wrap to parents with young children and think it would make a wonderful baby gift too!

Coupon Code: Moby Wrap Inc. has kindly offered A Mom's Balancing Act readers coupon code, mbamoby, for 15% off your entire purchase from now until February 25th.

Buy It: You can purchase the Moby Wrap for $39.95 on the Moby Wrap Website.

I don't know about you, but I am always looking for ways to make dinner time go more smoothly with my 2 year old. She has been eating with a fork and spoon for quite some time now, but I still find that she drops more food on her lap and the floor than she gets into her mouth.


Carys Bice found herself in the same situation. She had three children under the age of five who became increasingly frustrated trying to use standard utensils that made using their hands seem much easier to get food from the plate to their mouths. Wondering how she could make mealtime go more smoothly, she thought tongs would be an ideal solution and in 2008, Tinytongs was born! They are a safe eating utensil and designed for little hands to use in gripping and getting food into their mouths with more success.

We were sent Tinytongs to review.

When we received our Tinytongs in the mail, I was impressed with the size. I expected them to be larger for some reason, and was pleased that they were smaller and perfect for little hands. The fact that they are made for children 12 months to 5+ years makes them perfect for Kaelyn. She was very excited to use them for the first time. I wasn't sure how it would go, as she had never used tongs before...but she did amazingly well. And, best of all....we didn't have the huge mess after eating that we normally do. YAY! With the ergonomic shape and non-slip gripping ridges...she was able to easily hold onto it and use it successfully.

I also love the quality of Tinytongs. They are dishwasher safe and I can tell will last us a very long time! I'm looking forward to purchasing more so that we have plenty once Kaden begins using eating utensils as well! I also appreciate that they are safe for my kids to use. They are non-toxic, lead free, BPA Free, and Phthalate Free.

Buy It: You can purchase Tinytongs on the Tinytongs website for $7.99. They come in several fun colors.


Coupon Code: When placing an order, A Mom's Balancing Act readers can use the coupon code, mba2010, to receive a 20% discount.

You can find Tinytongs on Facebook as well!

The weather is rather unpredictable here in the Midwest...especially during these winter months. One day it can be extremely cold, with temps in the negative digits, and the next it can be near 40 degrees! For this reason, we must always be prepared with the proper clothing and accessories to keep our kiddos warm when we're out and about. This can be a bit difficult with a baby. Whenever we're out, we always take Kaden in his infant carrier. When it's raining, snowing, or windy...we find that a blanket doesn't work very well in keeping him dry and warm. That's why I'm happy to have come across Sprout Shell!


Sprout Shell is a privately owned and family operated company. It all began when Sheri Whittaker had her third daughter and realized there was a serious need for a truly functional infant carrier cover that would eliminate exposing her baby to the wind, rain, cold, etc. She ended up making her own. Then, ten years later, her oldest daughter Kirsten became pregnant and saw that there was the same need. Together, with Sheri's business experience and Kirsten's marketing background...Sprout Shell was born, giving mom's the first multi-functional, stylish infant carrier cover that grows with baby from birth through toddlerhood.

We were sent the Royal Crush Sprout Shell.


From the start, I was very impressed with the material of this cover. Having such cold weather, and not knowing whether it will be raining or snowing from one day to the next...I loved the fact that this particular Sprout Shell was made of super soft, and warm 100% Cotton Corduroy. We have used different covers in the past, but what I LOVE about this one, is the fact that it's multi-functional. It can be used as an infant carrier, nursing cover and shopping cart cover!!


When used as an infant carrier cover, the tent-like enclosure protects Kaden from the sun, wind, rain and other elements. It's a cozy environment that typically puts him right to sleep! I like that there's a hole in the top so we can easily hold onto the handle and still see Kaden inside. No more piling blankets on top of the carrier and having them blow off. The all-around elastic helps to keep the cover securely in place which is fantastic!

Since Kaden is still very young, he is still nursing quite often, which means most times when we're out in public I need to feed him at some point. Now that we have the Sprout Shell, I don't need to worry where we are, because it instantly becomes a nursing cover that gives added privacy no matter where we're at. I love it! I have already tried it out, and love that it stays in place and doesn't fall off like blankets do.

I am rather particular about germs on shopping carts. I remember when Kaelyn first started riding in shopping carts, we'd pile the blankets in to help keep her from touching the cart and sucking on it. It was such a pain! When Kaden starts sitting in shopping carts, I know I will always have a handy shopping cart cover with me. The Sprout Shell can be used as a cover on shopping carts and high chairs to keep those nasty germs away from him.

There are many styles to choose from. I also really like the 100% Cotton, Disco Dot Blue Sprout Shell.

I love the fact that the Sprout Shell fits all infant carriers and is so versatile. No more having to have multiple blankets with us wherever we go, or a separate infant carrier cover, nursing cover and shopping cart cover. With the Sprout Shell, I have it all with me wherever I go. Anything to make life easier is always appreciated. I would recommend this product to any parent with small children! It's definitely a Mommy Must-have and would make a fantastic gift as well.

Buy It: You can purchase the Royal Crush Sprout Shell like I received for $48 on the Sprout Shell website.

Coupon Code: Use the code, MOM5, when placing your order and receive $5 off.

You can find Sprout Shell on Facebook and Twitter.

Like most people, I enjoy finding great deals this time of year. What better time to buy Christmas gifts than on the days where you get the very lowest prices?!? I am a planner, and always try to get my shopping done early. Thanksgiving Day Sales and Black Friday Sales are always pretty good, and typically that's when I would try to get out and do most of my shopping. However, this year our little one is due just days before, so I don't think I will get out to go shopping on these days. That's ok though, online shopping is always great on these days as well!

I am especially grateful that I have found Coupon Trunk...as they make finding deals and coupons easier than ever! Whether it's deals on baby gear, home items, or something else...they are a site which can serve as a very valuable resource to many online shoppers, especially with Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday coming up. They even offer updates daily with the most recent discount offers and promo codes.

I have used this site a number of times already, and love how easy they make it for me to search. Now, when the time comes for me to find Thanksgiving Day Sales, or Black Friday Sales, I can simply put it into the search bar and go through the pages of stores and promotional offers that come up. I was doing a little searching recently, just to see what Thanksgiving Day or Black Friday sales are already posted and was happy to see that Bacario jewelry store has some fantastic Thanksgiving Day sales. I know that Walmart always has great sales on these days as well and look forward to seeing what they have in store for us this year!

If you're like me and planning to do most of your shopping next week online, you'll definitely want to check out Coupon Trunk for some of the best deals and coupons. It's easy to use and convenient...great for the busy mom who is balancing several other responsibilities at the same time.

With Halloween just around the corner, some parents may still be out searching for the perfect Halloween costume for their little one. It can be a tough decision! If you're like me, you not only want to find something that's cute, but also affordable. I am all about finding the best deals, and discounts when shopping online. Thankfully Coupon Trunk makes that easy! Whether it's deals on baby gear, home and garden or something else...they are a site which can serve as a very valuable resource to many online shoppers, especially with Halloween almost upon us. It offers updates daily with the most recent discount offers and promo codes.

Searching the site is incredibly easy. For instance, if you're looking for Halloween Costumes, simply put it into the search bar and several pages of stores and promotional offers come up. When I was searching, I was most impressed with the deals found at Extreme Halloween who is offering $5 off any order over $35, and Half Price Costumes who has Free Shipping Discounts on any Halloween Costume. I would recommend anyone looking for deals on Halloween Costumes to check out Coupon Trunk!

Thanks to MyBlogSpark we had the opportunity to try out the new Nature Valley Granola Nut Clusters!!

I really love snacks like this, so it was no surprise to me that I could hardly put the bag down once I began eating them! They are a perfect little snack that are flavorful and great combination of sweet and salty! I love the fact that they are healthy as well! My hubby really loved them too.

If you're a nut lover like myself, you'll definitely want to try out this great snack. I love how the bag is resealable. It makes it easy to keep them fresh between snacking.

Trident gum has now launched a new product called Trident Layers. If you enjoy chewing gum as much as I do...this is truly a must for you to try out! Trident Layers is an exciting new product that introduces a unique twist to regular gum. It is layered and mad with real fruit flavor for a super yummy taste!

We were sent the Trident Layers Wild Strawberry & Tangy Citrus and Green Apple & Golden Pineapple gum to try. I have to say that at first I was a bit hesitant as to whether or not I would like the gum or not. I love gum, but usually minty gum, not fruity gum. I was pleasantly surprised when I popped a piece into my mouth though...and can tell you that each flavor was very good! They were both very flavorful and unlike any gum I've tried before. I also thought it was great that Trident Layers is sugar free and less than 5 calories per piece!!

If you'd like to try Trident Layers for yourself, check out this offer from Trident Layers where you can print off a coupon to save 75 cents on any single pack. It's definitely worth it if you're looking to try a tasty new kind of gum!

As Kaelyn gets older I have noticed she enjoys all things girly! She loves to wear dresses, carry her play purse around, etc. I think it's absolutely adorable! In the last few months we've also seen her "pretend playing" more. It's fun to watch her as she cleans her dishes or sips her soup in her play kitchen. She also enjoys dressing up in any of the play clothes available to her. Now I am always on the lookout for fun girly dresses and dress up clothes for her. That's why I was thrilled when I came across the online boutique, Shabby Apple!

Shabby Apple has a Shabby Baby line which offers some adorable dresses and accessories for little girls! I am absolutely in love with this little Watermelon Dress and am hoping to get it for Kaelyn at some point when the weather warms up a bit! Isn't it adorable?!

Their dress up apparel is also very cute. Kaelyn would love to wear anything from this line. My favorite would have to be the Mirror Mirror dress, but there are many others to choose from too. There are also dress up options for little boys as well.

They offer many great options for women and teens! I had fun looking through their Maternity line of clothing. There are such cute things to choose from!

If you have never visited Shabby Apple before, I would encourage you to check it out. They have so many unique and fun styles available for all ages!

I always appreciate when I can find the baby gear I'm looking for all in one place. There are so many options out there today, but those which can make my shopping experience simple and fast while offering the quality products I am looking for are definitely on the top of my list!

I happened to come across Kushies a couple of months ago and was very impressed with the variety of baby gear they offer! Whether it's baby gifts, organic products, bedding, diapers, toys or something else you're looking for...they have it all! Many of their items are very reasonably priced too, which is always nice! Like this great Nursing Canopy, found on the Kushies website for just $7.49 in several colors!

Their clearance section is also fun to look through! They have some great baby gear there, ranging from just $1.99 to $18.99!

Kushies sent us this adorable oversized hooded towel for Kaelyn!

We've tried many hooded towels in the past, but they always seem to either be way to small for a growing toddler, or far too thin and cheaply made! The Kushies Hooded Towel we were sent couldn't be farther from those things!! Measuring 42" x 28", it's oversized which is great. It fits Kaelyn perfectly and even gives her room to grow some. Made of 100% cotton terry, it is very soft and keeps her warm and cozy while using it! I also love the adorable appliqued design on it! There are several cute ones to choose from that you and your baby will just love!

If you're looking for one stop shopping for a large variety of great items for both babies and toddler...things like bibs, washable diapers, blankets, apparel, toys and more....you'll definitely want to check out Kushies!!

Coupon Code: Kushies has generously offered A Mom's Balancing Act readers coupon code: mba10 to receive a 10% discount on any order from Kushies Online!! That really adds up when you consider how reasonably priced their items are to begin with!

Buy It: The Kushies Hooded Towel can be purchased from KushiesOnline.com for $25.99.

I always like to pass on coupons and deals I come across...especially when "deal" means FREE! I mean, who doesn't like to save money when they can and get freebies, right?! I know I do!! Well...Zack over at Coupon Dad let me know that there is a GREAT deal going on at 1 Sale a Day for a FREE Nintendo Wii 5 in 1 Sports Accessories Kit!
