Undercover Mama Giveaway Winner
Zookies Review & Giveaway (CLOSED)
Michele over at Zookies, a family owned and operated store, creates adorable diaper covers. Seriously, so many cute prints that you won't be able to decide on just one!
Luckily Michele had me give her several options that I would prefer for our One-Size Cover so I was suprised!
She sent me this adorable dinosaur print!
Here it is on it's largest rise:
& it's smallest rise:
The back:
& the inside:
Zookies care instructions say, "Machine wash warm or cold; line dry". If for whatever reason I am not able to line dry our diapers then I dry the inserts on a hot cycle, then add the covers for a low heat cycle.
Here's Weston! :D He is wearing a prefold & Snappi along with the Zookies diaper cover.
Zookies says that their One-Size covers are made to fit from 10-35lbs. The rise (from belly button to back waist) can be adjusted to fit 13-19".
I have no idea how much Weston weighs right now. He is 4.5 months old & hasn't been to the doctor until he was just over 2 months (Healthy Bebe!). But as you can see here he is wearing the diaper cover on the smallest rise & waist setting. So, this cover does run on the bigger side. There's no way it would have fit him at birth. (She doesn't claim that it does anyways) But, I'm not sure it would have fit him when he was 10lbs either.
Booty Shot ;) It's pretty bulky in the bum so I'm sure it will fit him to potty training!
My Lil Man is gettin' so big!
My opinion in short? Zookies covers are ADORABLE! They may not fit for super early on, but should by atleast 3 months up until potty training, IMO. Great covers for bulky fitteds & of course, prefolds. AND most importantly, we have not had 1 leak while using this cover!
BUY: Visit Zookies on Etsy or at their website!
Zookies doesn't just carry diaper covers, make sure to check out their gift sets, burp cloths & bibs, reusable sandwich/snack bags, handmade bar soap, fabric books, & more!
WIN: Zookies would like to give away a custom cover to one lucky winner!

Jady Baby's Review
Soft soled booties are pediatrician recommended. Pediatric studies show that children should walk bare-foot in order to allow their feet to develop naturally, but sometimes bare-foot walking can be impractical.
That's why Jade from Jady Baby's creates adorable soft soled baby booties.
Jade sent Weston a preloved pair of booties in size 4. Dino Dudes is the name of the print! Love!
All of Jady Baby's booties have soles made of Toughtek. Toughtek soles are great for babies and toddlers learning to walk. Toughtek is non-slip, waterproof, fire retardant, washable, dryable, highly abrasion resistant, scuff proof, and has amazing grip; wet, dry, warm or cold.
Jady Baby's booties are Canadian made and designed. With a stay-on design and super durable soles, they are machine washable and dryable and animal product free!
The soles are lined in a thick fur for cushion and warmth.
I requested a larger size so that these booties will (hopefully) still fit Weston during the fall & maybe even winter months.
I love them! Unlike most baby booties these actually stay on! I love the wrap around velcro closure, it lets you make the booties as tight or as loose as you need them.
BUY: Visit Jady Babys' Website.
(They have other stuff too!)
Jady Baby's would like to offer our fans & followers a $5 discount by using promo code MCREVIEW. If you use it please post here & let us know!

Undercover Mama Review & Giveaway (CLOSED)
Here's one for the nursing mommas!
Have you seen the Undercover Mama? This "shirt" is a GREAT addition to any nursing mother's wardrobe.
It is so hard to find affordable nursing tops & most 'regular' shirts are difficult to nurse in without pretty much taking it completely off (& you can't do that in public!) The Undercover Mama makes it possible to wear your 'regular' shirts to nurse while still keeping your belly & breast covered.
Regular nursing tanks work okay, but they just don't have much support. The Undercover Mama lets you keep all the coverage AND have the added support!
You just pull your top up, unlatch your nursing bra, & nurse!
The Undercover Mama now comes with 2 different clasps (all on one shirt!) You can use the hook, but if it doesn't fit on your specific bra, then you can use the loop! Very handy!
And here is the view of the back. It's just straight across, so you wouldn't want to buy a size too big or it would sag.
I have had this shirt for a little over a month now & I have worn it 3-4 times a week! I love it!
I do think that you should consider buying 1 size smaller than you would normally wear. I ordered a size small even though since Weston was born I have been wearing size medium. And according to the Amazon size chart & my bust size I should have ordered a Medium. A medium would have probably been okay, but I wear most of my shirts snug & it would not have worked out to have a looser tank under them. However, if I do order another I might just get the Medium. It seems that there was a little shrinking & the medium would be okay under some of my shirts. So I wouldn't recommend purchasing several Undercover Mama's before trying one on first ;)
Unfortunately, I do not have any pictures of me wearing the tank. Well, I do, but it's under another shirt so you can't even tell. ;)
For more information visit Undercover Mama's Website.
BUY: Visit Undercover Mama on Amazon!
WIN: Undercover Mama would like to give away an Undercover Mama in either black or white to one lucky winner!
