Questions for my parent friends

From time to time I come across things that are child related that I draw a blank on. I always resort to my blog parents to help me out. Here goes my first question. Have you experienced teeth grinding with your toddler? William has been doing that recently and it's not all the time but periodically throughout the day. It think he is mesmerized at the fact that he has teeth! Is there anything you can do about it? We usually take our hand and put it on his mouth and say "No! Don't do that" I'm not sure how well that's working. Any advice on this one?

My next one is that I suspect my kid has nasal allergies. He tends to sneeze a lot in the morning and evening hours. Do you have a toddler with allergies? If so how was it determined that they are in fact allergies? Does it require medication?

I know some of you wonder why I am asking you these questions and not the doctor. Well, his doctor thinks I need to fatten him up, others would swear he is two and quite big for his age. I just don't always trust everything the doc says. Thanks for taking the time to help me here!

Skin Free™ review and giveaway

I was contacted and offered to try out some products from the Skin Free™ company. I will admit I was a bit hesitant since I have done this before with another company with some negative results. When I hear something is natural and free of just about everything I get a little nervous. Those types of products are usually not the best. Well was I ever wrong! I received the four products shown in the photo. They are the Extra Moisturizing Soap & Shampoo Bar™, Super Moisture Butter Creme™, Whipped Tamanu Body Butter™ and the Niaouli Butter Stick™.


Now I had to decide which of the Ismail family members were going to try them so it ended up being Briahnna and myself. Briahnna has been using the Super Moisture Butter Creme™ to see if it would help relieve and repair some dry patches she developed on her face. Would you believe that it got rid of it in about 2 days time? I wanted to post photos but a 12 year old girl would NOT be having that! I tried the Niaouli Butter Stick™ and oh boy was I impressed! I have some rough feet (I admitted it) and this Butter Stick was just the antidote! It was not greasy and it keeps my feet moisturized for the entire day. I use it before I go to bed and when I get dressed for the day.

I also tried out the Whipped Tamanu Body Butter™. I am currently using it for massages. I keep it at my bedside for when the hubby is sweet enough to give his old lady a nice foot rub! It is so nice and once again, NOT greasy! I have used it all over and it is really good, leaves your skin baby soft. Now I have not yet used the Extra Moisturizing Soap & Shampoo Bar™ because I am saving it for when William runs out of baby wash. I think it might be good for his skin and hopefully less drying. He is showing signs of nasal allergies so I would think the lack of fragrance will be a plus for him. Overall I really think I will order the Niaouli Butter Stick™ and the Super Moisture Butter Creme™ on a regular basis. Now for the fun part, it's your turn...
