TruMoo Chocolate Marshmallow Milk!
TruMoo Milk contains no artificial growth hormones and no high fructose corn syrup. I like both of those things as a Mom. TruMoo Chocolate Marshmallow milk is made with fresh white milk sourced from regional dairies around the country - pure cocoa and just enough natural sugar to make it taste great. "TruMoo is delighting chocolate lovers everywhere with a special February flavor - TruMoo Chocolate Marshmallow. " Says the company. If you are one of those people that likes to try something new then this would be a fun treat for your family. When do you like to drink hot chocolate?
My favorite time is after skiing. I am usually so cold, dehydrated from exercising, and just love the warm feeling in my belly when I am finished. Then I am ready to go skiing again. Sledding is another great time for chocolate milk. After you are cold you can come inside and drink something nice and warm. When do you drink chocolate milk? At breakfast? For lunch? Do you have chocolate milk before you go to bed?
Downing chocolate milk after a tough workout can help replenish exhausted muscles and significantly aid exercise recovery, new research shows. I prefer to drink chocolate milk over regular milk. I bet TruMoo Chocolate marshmallow milk would taste good with cereal. Maybe a marshmallow cereal. Maybe I will try that the next time I have some TruMoo around. What type of milk do you put in your cereal?
5 Tips to Keep Your Kids on Track This Summer
It’s
the end of June and your teenager has finished his last exam. Freedom! With
college not starting until mid September they have a long summer ahead of them.
These
months can quickly turn into a party fest with numerous festivals like Glastonbury and Reading, to name but a few.
Why

GCSEs or A levels with something different but equally attractive!!? Give them
a challenge they will never forget and kick-off of the summer with an activity holiday! It might also help them get one step
ahead of their colleagues!!!
Life
skills
Outdoor
activities such as canyoning, via feratta and white water rafting demand certain life skills such as listening,
teamwork, courage and perseverance - all essential for entering the real world,
going to college and university.
Making
friends
These
sorts of activities are often in small groups with other families and
teenagers. A perfect opportunity to meet new people, practice relationship
building skills and share adventures with new friends. The daunting thought of
starting university in a new city where they know no-one may seem a little more
attractive!!
Fresh
mountain air and exercise
What
can be better for your teenager than fresh mountain air and exercise? What’s
great about this sort of holiday is that your adolescent will be doing lots of
exercise and they won’t even notice as they will be too busy having fun!
Family Time
Your
cuddly two year old is now a teenager with attitude and you know it won’t be
long before they fly the nest. Quality family time is becoming more and more
precious and it is difficult to find
things that the whole family can do together. An activity holiday is the
perfect solution as the activities can be adapted for all levels with every
member of the family getting something out of them. Inhibitions are broken down
and the rule book is re-written creating lasting family memories of fun times
together!
An
extra dimension….
Why
not add another dimension to your holiday and set your kids a different kind of
challenge. You could give them a video project to do or a photography
competition, for example, to get the best action photo. This will keep them
occupied and engaged as well as giving you a lasting memory of your holiday, killing
two birds with one stone!

Zero Frizz Review
I have had frizzy hair for most of my life. I tried Zero Frizz as a free product for review. The product states "Taking you from frizz to fabulous in two point five, the proprietary combination of ceramide proteins and vitamins instantly smooth and seal the hair shaft for100% Rescue Technology to diagnoses the cause of hair’s frizzy condition.". To use you: "Apply a dime size amount of Zero Frizz Hair Serum evenly onto wet or damp hair and blow dry for added shine. Afterwards, apply a small amount of serum to your ends, for added softness and bounce. Zero Frizz coats the hair before styling, to protect it from heat and allow the natural oils to shine without the frizz.".
This products works just as well as other frizz products. My husband actually complemented me on my hair this particular day which he does not do often. This products works well without making your hair look dirty. I would recommend to other curly hair friends.
What should you know before having a baby
Having a child is a major
responsibility. In anticipation, expecting parents should learn a few things
about having a baby. Here are a few things that future parents should know
about having a child:Baby proofing is essential.
Infants and
small children face numerous hazards. Cords, small objects, corners, hard
surfaces, stairs, open windows, sharp objects, outlets, and household cleaners
are all potential dangers. As such, it is important for parents to make sure
that their child is safe. Precautions such as corner guards, furniture pads,
outlet covers, cord wraps, window locks, and safety gates are all great ways to
keep a child safe. In addition parents should make sure to supervise their
baby. This helps eliminate the likelihood of a child getting into accidents or
injuring themselves.
Children come with lot of unexpected costs.
Kids are
expensive. While children are a great addition to ones life, it is important
for parents to make sure that they can afford having offspring. Medical bills,
diaper costs, daycare, toys, books, and babysitters all add up. To help with
the costs parents should plan ahead and save money to help pay for their child’s upbringing. Expecting
mothers should also make it a point to check out maternity discounts offered by
retailers such as Amazon. Additionally, parents should begin saving for their
child’s academic future as soon as
possible. College is expensive and it’s important to start preparing
for it early on.
There are never enough pictures.
Many parents
will go overboard taking pictures of their child during their first year or two
of parenthood. Unfortunately a lot of them stop documenting the child’s growth once he reaches a
certain age. Children grow up fast and it’s there is no such thing as
too many pictures of them. Also, parents who do plan on recording as much of
their child’s life as possible should
remember to organize pictures and videos. Keeping material organized makes it
easy to revisit and prevents any misplaced images or home movies. It’s also a good idea to look
into a file backup service to insure that nothing can accidentally get damaged
or lost.
While having
a child might sound like it’s a daunting task, it’s actually an incredible joy. Parenting is a unique opportunity and
provides numerous new opportunities. Although it is important for adults to
prepare themselves for the responsibilities that parenting brings, having
children is fantastic experience.
