From the time Kaelyn was very little, I saw a nurturing, motherly side to her. She has always loved her dolls and tends to care for them in the same way she sees me care for her and her brothers. It's neat to see and I like to encourage that type of pretend play as much as possible. That's why I am always on the lookout for dolls that make it feel more real to her while she's playing. Thankfully, Hasbro Toys has the perfect gift!

Baby Alive Real Surprises Baby doll is perfect for a child like Kaelyn! This doll gives little kids the experience of taking care of their very own baby! Kaelyn has owned other Baby Alive dolls in the past and still loves them to this day. She enjoys taking care of her and meeting her needs as a "mommy" which is why I knew she'd be thrilled to learn we were going to have the opportunity to review this Baby Alive doll!

The Baby Alive Real Surprises Baby Doll arrived and Kaelyn couldn't wait to start playing with her. We were both amazed at how many accessories she came with!

Included was the doll, bib, bottle, bowl, spoon, pacifier, 3 diapers, 3 doll food packets and instructions!

Kaelyn was first in awe of this cute little doll and her real doll features. She has rock-a-bye eyes that can open and close which is always fun! Even better, she speaks 30 different phrases and will tell her "mommy" when she wants to be fed. Kaelyn loves feeling like a real mommy with her baby and enjoys taking care of her!

Just like a real baby, she can sometime be a little picky about what she eats. She shakes her head from side to side to let you know what she likes and doesn't like! It's very cute and fun to see Kaelyn interact with her. :)

One of Kaelyn's favorite features though, is the fact that the Real Surprises Baby doll wets and soils in her diaper after drinking and eating! Kids can use one of the extra diapers for a quick change! 

Just like the name of the doll, this is the type of thing that really makes her seem real! Kaelyn loves to feed her and change her diapers!  We don't use the "food" that came with her often because we don't have many extra diapers, but when we do it's a lot of fun! Otherwise she enjoys pretending too!

This doll is designed for ages 3 years and up. It also requires 3 AA batteries which are included! YAY! 

We have had a lot of fun with Baby Alive Real Surprises Baby Doll and would recommend it as a great gift idea this Christmas! 

Buy It: The Baby Alive Real Surprises Baby Doll is available at most major toy retails nationwide and on HasbroToyShop.com for $56.99!

**The product for this review was provided by Mamas & Papas. All opinions are my own.

If you've been a follower here for a while, you know that I'm a big fan of Mamas & Papas. We have owned several of their products over the years and are always impressed with the quality and overall appeal for both child and parent. 

If you aren't familiar with this great company, here's a bit about them:

Founded in 1981 by UK's first female entrepreneurs Lisa Scacchetti, Mamas & Papas is a brand built on a passion for style, quality and innovation. Luisa's vision is one the company still holds on to today, that "Every product and collection in our range must not only look good, but also add simplicity and assurance to a parent's daily routine. We are about sophistication, yet simple, solutions, with unprecedented attention to detail in everything we do".

I have found that this family owned business is committed to giving parents the very best in stylish and practical baby products. That's why, when the time came to look for the perfect booster seat for Caysen, I turned to Mamas & Papas and was thrilled when asked to review their Baby Bud Booster Seat!

Features/Benefits:

• 3 stage seat that grows with baby
• Easily fits most chairs securely so you can boost your little one up to almost any table
• Provides added comfort and support for baby with removable soft seat insert and 3 position removable tray
• Easy to wipe clean with no crevices to trap food and crumbs
• Non slip feet and 2 chair harness give extra safety and stability
• Designed for children ages 6m-3y

We've owned a few different booster seats in the past, but over the years they have begun to show wear, and quite honestly, have been more difficult to keep clean than I had hoped. That's why I was excited to try out the Mamas & Papas and hopeful it would be more convenient for this busy mama. 

When the booster seat arrived, I was eager to check it out. Out of the box I was very impressed with the quality right away. As always, Mamas & Papas did not disappoint. I can tell this is something that will hold up well which I appreciate, since it's used multiple times a day!

The Baby Bud Booster Seat is available in three different colors. We were sent teal which I absolutely love! It's a very nice color and great whether a boy is using it or a girl! 

Given its great color, I was instantly drawn to the removable soft seat insert. This is very soft and and made to be comfortable for the child who is sitting in it. It's also made to be easy to clean. YAY!

This insert is designed to be used through stage two (which is approximately 12 months old). It's part of the grow-with-me feature that I love about this product! For those with a baby, you know that you'll be able to get a lot of use out of this chair without having to go through a high chair and then a booster separately. 

Stage one uses the insert as well, but also the three position removable tray which makes it more like a high chair. This is great for children ages 6m to 12m who are just starting to eat table foods and meals with the family. 

The tray is very easy to get on and off. There's even a lock and unlock lever which ensures that it's securely in place.

Once the child is a little bigger, the tray can be removed so they can move right up to the table with the rest of the family. 

For children who are 12m-3y, this booster seat can still be used, but without the insert since the child is bigger. This is the way we use it with Caysen and LOVE it! It fits him well and is VERY easy to clean (one of the priorities for me when it comes to a booster seat of any kind).  

One thing I really like is that the straps are darker in color, not white. We have had other booster seats with white straps and they never stay white for long. I appreciate this a lot about the Baby Bud! 

When used up to the table, it doesn't matter if your child is 1 year or 3 years, it is adjustable to suit your babies size/height just right. There are four adjustable non slip feet which makes it possible to get the child to the right height. I've never had a booster seat where the height was adjustable, so I really appreciate this feature as well! 

Of course, safety is also a top priority when it comes to baby gear, which is why I'm thankful for the non slip feet, 2 chair harness and safety belt. The feet and the chair straps give the booster seat extra safety and stability, while the safety belt keeps Caysen sitting and safe while eating.

We have really been loving the Baby Bud Booster Seat and use it a lot at home. It's also perfect for on the go! We go to many homes where they don't have an extra booster seat, so we just take ours along with us. This one is lightweight and even has a handy carry handle for portability! 

Overall we've been thrilled! The quality of the Baby Bud Booster Seat is top-notch and its many features make it convenient and perfect for both mom and baby. It's definitely a mommy must-have in my opinion and would make a great gift idea as well! 

Buy It: You can purchase the Baby Bud Booster Seat from Mamas & Papas for $69.99.

This time of year my skin is especially dry and in need of some extra TLC. As a busy mom, I don't have time to pamper myself to a visit to the spa very often, so I need something I can easily use from home! Thankfully, ToiletTree Products has come to the rescue!

A family owned and operated company, ToiletTree Products Inc. focuses solely on the manufacturing and marketing of bathroom products. If you've been a reader hear for a while, you may remember a couple of the reviews I've done for them and their great line of products. 

I'm a fan of ToiletTree and their innovative products, so I was excited when asked to review another one of their useful items! We were sent the ToiletTree Products Professional Skin Care System!

Features/Benefits:

• Stimulates skin renewal 
• Improves overall skin clarity and appearance
• Removes dead skin cells to expose healthier looking skin
• Energizes skin and leaves it smooth, soft and radiant
• Cleans deep to remove stubborn makeup
• Enhances absorption of moisturizers

Since I don't visit the spa regularly, I was happy to learn that I could still enjoy spa-like treatment and dermatologist experiences at home! Not only is it convenient, but also saves me money too! YAY!

This Professional Skin Care System is an advanced daily cleansing tool that helps polish away dull skin and gently exfoliates away impurities that traditional cleansing leaves behind. I was very excited to try it out when it arrived!

Upon opening the box, I found that it includes the main unit, 2 face exfoliators (1 soft and 1 medium), 1 body exfoliator, and 1 pumice stone. It also included the 4 necessary AA batteries which I thought was great as well!

I was impressed with the quality right away. I could tell this was made well and would be something that would last. I appreciate this, since it's something meant to be used often!

There were helpful instructions which guided me in using the system correctly. Once I had the batteries in, it was very simple to get started. There's a power button to turn the unit on and off as well as the different interchangeable heads. 

The soft and medium brushes are great for the face (the soft one is for more sensitive skin and the one I like best). To use, I simply make sure my face is clean and then exfoliate. I apply my cleanser to the brush and gently move it across my face in the shower. That's right!! The unit is waterproof which I LOVE!

The body brush is used in the same way. I simply apply my soap right to it and move it on my skin in circles. I love this for my legs. It really does make them feel cleaner and much softer!

I really love to use it in the ways mentioned above, but my favorite...is on my feet! As much as I hate to admit it, my heels and feet get extremely dry in the winter. So dry I can feel the the dry skin catch on my socks when I put them on! I haven't had any luck with helping the situation until the Professional Skin Care System arrived!

To use on my feet, I use the Pumice Stone. Like the other heads, it simply attaches to the main unit. It works best on wet skin so I first immerse my foot in warm water to soften the skin. I then wipe it down to leave it damp and apply the pumice on my foot while moving it in circular motions.

During rotation, the pumice helps to remove dead skin on places very well. It's also great for places like the elbow! Once I use it, I use my lotion to help hydrate the skin. 

I am amazed how well this products works to improve the overall look and feel of my skin! It really seems to remove dead skin cells and exposes healthier looking skin that is so smooth and soft! It has even worked well to help me remove the makeup my cleanser alone seems to leave behind. 

Overall I've been really happy with the Professional Skin Care System from ToiletTree Products and would definitely recommend it to others! It would make a fantastic gift idea as well!

Buy It: You can purchase the Professional Skin Care System by Toilet Tree Products from Amazon.com for $39.95. It is available in 6 different colors. There are refills available as well!

Win It: One lucky reader is going to WIN a Professional Skin Care System by ToiletTree of their own!
