Would You Use Toilet Paper With Your Baby? #LetsTalkBums with Cottonelle

#Sponsored By +Crowdtap & +Cottonelle 

When you think of wiping a baby's bottom, what comes to mind?

Baby Wipes, of course!!

I couldn't imagine using anything else... Could you?

Now think about going to the bathroom yourself...

What do you use to wipe your hinny?
Say it out loud...
Come on...
It's Toilet Paper, right?

I know your probably thinking "Why is this crazy woman talking about the bathroom?" Well, I'm about to tell you....

We all use toilet paper in the bathroom and don't think twice about it. It's normal, it's what we're taught and it's what our parents were taught. As soon as we become "big kids" and can use the potty, we switch from having our bottom's cleaned with baby wipes to using toilet paper.

When my daughters were babies, I use to steal a few baby wipes and keep them in the bathroom and I always mentioned buying some to keep in there... but never did.
My point is...
We wouldn't use toilet paper when we change your baby's diaper... So why do we use it on ourselves? Why not use wipes as well?

Luck for us... Cottonelle has been asking some of those same questions and has a wonderful answer for us...
Cottonelle Wet Wipes - Baby Wipes for grown-ups!

Cottonelle has created a line of flushable wipes that are the perfect accessory for any bathroom. You don't know what clean feels like until you try them out for yourself.

I wasn't sure about it myself when I first heard of Cottonelle Wet Wipes but I should have been. (I did use to steal my daughters baby wipes...) I always thought that the "wetness" would be bothersome, I'm not sure why I thought it would "tag along" instead of drying, but I did and that thought kept me from purchasing my own "Grown-Up" Wipes.
I finally got the chance to try out Cottonelle Wet Wipes when I received an offer from CrowdTap and thought "Why not? It's worth a try, right?"
So I agreed and got surprisingly anxious while waiting on the package.
When it arrived, I found a new wipe dispenser with an unopened pack of wipes inside and 2 To-Go Packs of Cottonelle Fresh Care Flushable Cleansing Wipes, as well as coupons! I couldn't wait to take the Cottonelle Challenge and test out my new "grown-up wipes."
I'll spare you the details and simply say:
"The Cottonelle Care Routine ROCKS!!!"

I haven't felt this clean since my girls were babies and their ages 6 and 7 now! And speaking of my daughters, having the Cottonelle wipes in the bathroom has helped me worry less about them as well. If your a parent then you know how it feels to wonder if your child is getting clean enough in the bathroom, or even getting clean at all. Kids get in a hurry sometimes and you never know what they may forget to do...
Now that we have Cottonelle Fresh Care Wipes, everyone in my home has a clean bottom and THAT makes me happy. Noone can change my mind when it comes to using wipes in the bathroom and they wouldn't want to once they tried them out their selves! I would almost bet money it... But since I'm not a betting gal, You can just take my word for it.

I'll never go back to using strictly toilet paper again, I'm hooked on The Cottonelle Care Routine! 

Have you tried out Cottonelle Fresh Care Flushable Cleansing Wipes yet?
If not, then what are you waiting for?
I see a refreshing and clean hinny in your future...
What do you see?

The Eco-Friendly Dr. Doormat Giveaway

It's an Eco-Friendly - Dr. Doormat Giveaway!!!

Hosted by My Kind Of Introduction

and Sponsored by Dr. Doormat

I haven't always used Eco-Friendly products but I'm extremely happy now that I've started my journey through the land of a Green Mommy. I started realizing that not only am I helping the earth but I'm helping my family as well. Keeping all those yucky chemicals away from my daughters and keeping them safe.
That's why I'm soo glad that Dr.Doormat is Eco-Friendly and very useful!

What is Dr. Doormat?

Dr. Doormat is the first antimicrobial treated doormat designed for home use. The mat is infused during the manufacturing process with a specially formulated antimicrobial treatment that permanently bonds to the fibers of the doormat and cannot be tracked through your home. Dr. Doormat looks attractive and is a great addition for all entrances of your home. You can even use them at litter boxes and at dog beds or cages! They start working as soon as your shoe (or paw) touches the mat, instantly killing the germy bacteria.

Dr. Doormat is also Eco-Friendly!!

I was also very surprised to find out that Dr. Doormat is Eco-Friendly! Debbie Greenspan traveled all over the globe to discover the highest quality and most environmentally safe materials to create the Dr. Doormat. She was on a mission to make her home as healthy as possible for her young kids. She wasn't willing to make any compromises on quality and wouldn't even consider hurting the planet a tiny bit. Even the resin and pigment are non-toxic!! I LOVE IT!

We started using our Dr. Doormat as soon as it came in the mail. I have to admit that the first thing I did was take off my shoes to see how it felt on my bare feet. I couldn't help myself, the design looked really cool and I wanted to see if it felt as cool as it looked. I was NOT disappointed... It felt awesome!

We've been using Dr. Doormat for a few weeks now and my floor has been noticeably cleaner. I can't tell if our bacteria level is down but we haven't been sick and that always a plus! We're extremely happy with our new doormat and I've already started telling my friends about it. I don't plan on changing doormats for a long time.
I've found the prefect doormat for Mom's and Families and I'm shouting it out to the world!!

Dr. Doormat is a "must have" home environmental tool for any Family with young kids. They spend most of they time in the floor and we don't want them collecting all those yucky germs that we carry in on our shoes each and every day.

No More Dirty Shoe Germs with Dr. Doormat - Our Review

#Sponsored By Dr. Doormat

Raising my family in the country, where getting dirty is part of every child's daily agenda, keeping clean carpets and low germ levels can be pretty tough. You would think that with me having 2 daughters that they wouldn't get real dirty often or play in the mud on a rainy day but that's not how it goes. Jade and Loran LOVE mud! They will ruin a new outfit in just a couple of hours if I let them go outside in it. Running around in the yard, climbing trees, running up and down out dirt and gravel driveway.... My house sees alot of dirt and grime!!

I was super excited when I got the opportunity to try out a new Mommy-Made doormat called Dr. Doormat, that reduces the amount of germs we carry into our home on the bottom of our shoes. Living off the back roads in Candler, I could definitely use the extra help!

What is Dr. Doormat?

Dr. Doormat is the first antimicrobial treated doormat designed for home use. The mat is infused during the manufacturing process with a specially formulated antimicrobial treatment that permanently bonds to the fibers of the doormat and cannot be tracked through your home. Dr. Doormat looks attractive and is a great addition for all entrances of your home. You can even use them at litter boxes and at dog beds or cages! They start working as soon as your shoe (or paw) touches the mat, instantly killing the germy bacteria.

Dr. Doormat is also Eco-Friendly!!

I was also very surprised to find out that Dr. Doormat is Eco-Friendly! Debbie Greenspan traveled all over the globe to discover the highest quality and most environmentally safe materials to create the Dr. Doormat. She was on a mission to make her home as healthy as possible for her young kids. She wasn't willing to make any compromises on quality and wouldn't even consider hurting the planet a tiny bit. Even the resin and pigment are non-toxic!! I LOVE IT!

Dr. Doormat comes in 4 different colors:

• Charcoal Gray
• Chocolate Brown
• Peacock Blue
• Autumn Red

I chose Autumn Red, I love the deep red tone. My fiance and I have always used deep red in our home decor. I also like the name of "Autumn Red".... It kind of makes me feel like it was made for me since we share the name Autumn :-)

We started using our Dr. Doormat as soon as it came in the mail. I have to admit that the first thing I did was take off my shoes to see how it felt on my bare feet. I couldn't help myself, the design looked really cool and I wanted to see if it felt as cool as it looked. I was NOT disappointed... It felt awesome!

I also like the little silver corner plate that says Dr. Doormat, it looks professional and it's not an unattractive paper tag hanging from the side of the doormat. The design fits in with our regular decor perfectly and don't stick out like some of the other ones that you can find in stores and can be a real eye-sore.

After placing Dr. Doormat at our front door, it became a natural thing to wipe our feet before we continued on throughout the house. It says to wipe your feet on the Dr. Doormat atleast twice for best results. My daughters made sure to make it a point to say "Make sure you wipe your feet, Mommy!" She would repeat herself almost every time we walked through the door for the first couple days.

We've been using Dr. Doormat for a few weeks now and my floor has been noticeably cleaner. I can't tell if our bacteria level is down but we haven't been sick and that always a plus! We're extremely happy with our new doormat and I've already started telling my friends about it. I don't plan on changing doormats for a long time. I've found the prefect doormat for Mom's and Families and I'm shouting it out to the world!!

Dr. Doormat is a "must have" home environmental tool for any Family with young kids. They spend most of they time in the floor and we don't want them collecting all those yucky germs that we carry in on our shoes each and every day.
