Lisa's Must-Have
I don't know who wanted this toy more - me or my toddler! Rody is the super cute, bouncy ride-on horse that reminds me of the jumpers I used to have as a child.
Rody is made in Italy (ooh la la!) and it is great quality. It is the same concept as the traditional bouncy ball with the handle (that I loved as a child too)!
Your child will love jumping all over the house and backyard holding this cute little pony's ears. Make sure you are close by with tiny ones because Rody can tip over if your child is not ready to balance, but Rody is so cute you can't resist! It is a little expensive,...

When you are in the market for a booster, you want safety and comfort. Britax has accomplished both. This booster fits children up to 120 pounds which is great. The longer we can keep our kids in boosters, the safer they are. The height of the backrest is higher which is nice as your kids grow. There is side impact protection which is wonderful from a safety standpoint and also comfy for your child since it keeps their head, neck and spine aligned.
The best feature is the slide guard that prevents your child from sliding under the lap- belt if you are in an accident. This can prevent...

If you are looking for a unique game that is seriously fun for the whole family, I found one. (It says 8 and up but I know a 4 year old who also has fun playing it on a slightly less strategic level). It's so simple. It's an egg crate-like board and shiny strong magnets.
Each player places a magnet on the "board" hoping that it doesn't attach to another magnet. If it does, then the player has to take the magnets. The goal is to be the first one with no magnets left in their hand. There are alternative ways to play it also. You really have to play it to get it, but it's super fun and you...

I definitely don't think the guys will appreciate this must have. Most women are like me- always chilly. My husband can be in a tank top and I am reaching for a sweatshirt. He wants to have dinner outside on our porch, and I am just too cold to consider it without a heat lamp. You will rarely find me on my couch without a blanket and a cup of tea (or glass of wine) to keep me cozy.
The Slanket is a cool new blanket that is sure to get laughs in my house, but I don't care! It covers you up, but has sleeve-like arm holes so you can hold your drink while you cozy up. Your hands and upper...

This is the second time I have made a Zoobie product a must have. I just think this is such a clever product line and for those of us who have children who like to "cuddle up" with a blankee, this is a sure winner.
Just hot off the press- Zoobies has teamed up with the World of Eric Carle to bring you the Zoobie Very Hungry Caterpillar. This limited edition plush character folds into a pillow with a butterfly print blanket zipped inside. The package also includes the classic The Very Hungry Caterpillar hard cover storybook as well as a certificate celebrating the character's 40th...

Treat yourself to deliciousness with bath ice cream, shower sherbet, ice cream sandwiches for your relaxing tub time.
This artisan-crafted bath ice cream takes three days to make by hand. It makes me smile every time I drop one into my bath. It fizzes, melts, and releases nourishing minerals and oils to hydrate and moisturize your skin. My kids even want to use the mini ice cream scoops because they look so "yummy."
Soak and relax your body and give it a decadent treat. You deserve it!

Let's face it. School is a lot more work for our kids than it was for us. My son has to memorize all the states and capitols and has a vocabulary list a mile long. And this in 5th grade! Getting him to study using flash cards is still the best way to tackle these daily school requirements.
Why use old fashioned boring flash cards when you can stock up on these brand new Flashy Cards! They have a cool camouflage print on the background of the cards that gets kids interested and keeps them motivated to use their cards. My son has been using them all summer and he loves them! They don't make...

How do you feel in short shorts? Do you like to wear a bikini? Cellulite is not my favorite topic and it is not something I enjoy talking about.
That said- I found a product that helps with the battle of the lumpy, bumpy enemy- cellulite! IQ Derma Firmaceuticals
Firming Body Gel tackles the problem and helps reduce the appearance of cellulite. Rub a quarter size amount of gel into problem areas twice a day for 2 weeks or more.
Hey, we can't live in jeans the whole summer so why not fight hormones, aging, heredity and whatever factors could possibly lead this orange peel look that tends...
