iPhone 4/4S Soft Touch Pong™ Case Review

About: Pong™ Research Corporation was founded by an international team of scientists with unique expertise in the fields of plasma physics, environmental science, electrical engineering, antenna design, and health sciences. Among their breakthrough discoveries, Pong's scientists gained an understanding of how to "direct" radiation through the use of electromagnetic fields—the very science now embedded into every Pong case.
                                                                                   www.pongresearch.com



Product Description: Pong™ protects you, your phone and your signal. Pong is the ONLY solution proven by Federal Communications Commission (FCC) certified laboratories to protect users from cell phone radiation while not compromising phone performance. Plus, the sleek and elegant design provides you with the only cool protective case for both your phone and you. Pong is proven to reduce SAR up to 95% below FCC limits.  Compatible with AT&T, Sprint and Verizon iPhone 4/4S's as well as iPhone 4/4S's operating on international carrier networks.
 

Review: The holidays are a great time for giving those you love the gift of communication.  Have you thought about a case that is both stylish and good for the whole family?  Did you give or receive a phone or iPad?  The Pong cases are great companions to the holiday gifts.

Before I received the Pong case I had a bulky case on my phone.  It was a relief to change it out to something more sleek.  I have noticed that this case is easier to keep clean than the one I used previously.  While it's hard to know exactly how the SAR protection is working I do feel better about using my phone and letting my kids watch stuff on it.

Here’s why putting a child’s device in a Pong case is so important:
  • An article published last month in the scientific journal, Electromagnetic Biology and Medicine, reported that children absorb twice as much radiation from cell phones as adults do and more than FCC guidelines permit.
  • Most vulnerable are a child’s brain, eyes and bone marrow, which can absorb as much as 10 times the amount of radiation an adult’s body does.
  • These findings come just 4 months after the World Health Organization classified cell phone radiation as a potential carcinogen based on a large, global research study.
Placing a device in a Pong case is an easy (they snap on and off), affordable ($49.99-$99.99) and important (proven effective) step to take when giving a child a cell phone or iPad.  One of the things I really like about the Pong cases is the great colors available.  You can pick out a different color for every member in your family!  Be sure and “like” pong on Facebook for news of special promotions, new product introductions and more.

Buy it: You can purchase your own Pong case online at www.pongresearch.com.

The Fitbit XBOX 360 Kinect bundle NEW at Sam's Club Game Hub


Does your family set New Year's resolutions?  Is one of them to be more active as a family?  Monkey see, monkey do right.  If my children see me being active then hopefully it will encourage them to want to get out there and stay fit.  While mine are still on the young side I don't think it's ever to early to encourage exercise and activities that keep them healthy.  This past year I ran a half marathon and this year I am signed up to run a full marathon with my sister.  This goal has provided a great way for me to share with my kids the importance of getting fit, having goals and the excitement when you reach them.

Sam's Club Game Hub just launched a NEW bundle with XBOX 360 Kinect to help shoppers and their families actually keep their New Year's fitness resolutions. The Fitbit XBOX 360 Kinect bundle, includes a XBOX 360 Kinect, a FitBit Activity Tracker, "Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2012", the sequel to the #1 fitness game on Kinect.

The FitBit Tracker is like a super advanced pedometer and tracks your real-time activity stats, including: steps, distance, floors climbed, and calories burned. People using the FitBit claim that because they are aware of their daily movements, they walk 43% farther and lose an average of 13 pounds!  The "Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2012" fitness game is a social and fun workout experience, totally customizable. Your Shape includes over 90 hours of activities to suit you and your family's taste and fitness goals. It also has a feedback system that guides you on how to improve your technique and results.

Fitbit Overview:
Fit fitness into your day - Make every step you take a step toward better fitness. The Fitbit Tracker shows your real-time activity stats so you know how close you are to your goals. It’s with you every step of the day, motivating you to make small changes that add up to big results.

The Fitbit Ultra uses a MEMS 3-axis accelerometer that measures your motion patterns to tell you your calories burned, steps taken, distance traveled, and sleep quality. A built-in MEMS altimeter measures your vertical climb up stairs and hills.

What’s Included:
1 Fitbit Tracker
1 base station / charger
1 sleep wrist band
1 belt holster

Single-button control - Each press of the button cycles the display through one of 6 modes:
• Steps
• Distance
• Floors Climbed
• Calories Burned
• Flower (overall recent activity level)
• Clock

The Fitbit Tracker syncs wirelessly to the base station (included in package) using an ultra-low power 2.4 GHz ANT radio transceiver. Sync occurs automatically, anytime your Tracker is within about 15 feet of any base station and relatively motionless. The base station plugs into your Mac or PC’s USB port. Syncing and uploading requires use of the free Fitbit uploader application.   The free membership to Fitbit.com, includes ability to log and chart activities, food, sleep, water, body mass, weight, and much more


"Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2012":
Your Shape Fitness Evolved 2012 is the new sequel to Your Shape: Fitness Evolved, the #1 fitness game on Kinect. Exercise your way with a customizable, social and fun experience that delivers serious results. As one of the most extensive fitness offerings on the market, Your Shape includes over 90 hours of activities. Your Shape provides an even wider array of activities to suit your tastes and fitness goals, including zen classes, latin dance and boot camp. The state-of-theart motion tracking has been pushed to the next level with brand-new floor movements and an enhanced feedback system that guides you on how to improve your technique and results.

Where fitness and magic meet – Your Shape will take players into a stimulating world showcasing an array of captivating visual effects and an environment that will transform as their workouts evolve in the game. The improved player projection will allow players to see themselves in the Your Shape universe and keep a close eye on their workouts.

Fitness your way – You choose how you want to play! Do you want a personal trainer to help meet your set fitness goals? Or do you want to focus on a specific muscle group? You can also build a program around the time you have to work out.

Wow, this sounds really cool to me.  We don't have the XBOX 360 Kinect so this might be a great opportunity to check into it.  You can learn more and purchase one for yourself at Sam's Club Game Hub.

Love Lifted Me by Sara Evans - Book Review


Book Description: Jade never knew happily-ever-after would be this messy, loud . . . delicious.  Jade Benson embraces unexpected motherhood when her husband Max gains custody of his young son. As she and Max work out their newly formed family, an invitation to coach Texas high school football sends them on a journey.  Then a stranger reveals a painful secret, and Jade faces her hardest challenge yet. When she surrenders her heart to God and to her husband, Jade discovers the joy of love lifting her above her fears.

Review: Love Lifted Me captured me and had me flipping pages as fast as my tired eyes could read.  Thankfully my husband was on vacation for the holidays so I had some quiet time to find myself captivate by the story unfolding in front of me.  I really enjoyed the writing style and at times felt as if it was an afternoon soap opera or drama on the big screen.

I think my favorite theme in this story is to fight for your marriage.  When poor decisions caused Max and Jade great heartache and threatened their marriage they sought help and turned to God's promises.   It seems that this may not be the norm anymore so it was nice to read how they worked through their problems and with God, they were able to mend their broken relationship.  Love Lifted me is a great book to curl up with during the cold winter months.  The stories of love will warm your heart.  I highly recommend this book and the online price is very affordable!

Buy it: Love Lifted Me is available online or at a book retailer near you.

Fill in the Blankie Review & $150 Giveaway!

About: Fill in the Blankie offer customers an opportunity to tell a story along all four satin edges of the baby blanket style of their choice.
  • “We personalize ‘em out the wha-zoo”
    We’ll provide you with text suggestions to personalize your blanket — but, you’ve got up to 200 characters to express your warmest wishes for your newest bundle of joy.
  • “Simple, fast and easy on the wallet”
    Fully embroidered blankets start at just $39. Normal production is roughly 5-8 days, but if you’re in a pinch — we can help! “Rush it” and we can make it and ship it out within 1-3 days!
  • “Each one is truly one-of-a-kind”
    Your own copy combined with your choices of: (39) baby blanket styles/colors, (27) fonts & (18) thread colors ensure your baby blanket is as original as the little one who is lucky enough to carry one. Every one of our baby blankets is made of 100% woven cotton, trimmed with 2 inches of the silkiest smooth satin you ever did see (or lay your hands on).
Product Description: A Sonya Exclusive - The newest innovation in baby blankets. The idea behind the blankie is that, as adults, we long for high-count luxury sheets. Why should a child be any different? So, we've found luxury high-count sheets and fun, soft, patterns to create this light-weight and super-snuggly sheety blankie. It's the favorite at my house (and trust me, we have a lot of blankies to choose from). With the super-silky-soft satin binding and cool-to-the-touch cotton fabric, these fun combos are a must-have.

Light/Med
30" x 30"
Cuddle Factor (1-10, 10 being softest)
Quality of material and construction
Weight (light, medium, heavy)
Size (Overall dimensions)
  • Machine washable
  • Made of 400-count luxury cotton sheets
  • $87 includes all 4 sides of personalization 
  • Cool to the touch, but snuggably warm!

Review:  My daughter has just started sleeping in a big girl bed and is in need of some blankets.  I really wish I had heard about fill in the blankie when my children were smaller.  It's way more than a monogrammed baby blanket, these blankets are keepsakes that tell the child of your love.  It didn't take my very long to pick out a blanket, I love patterns so I headed straight for the Sonya Exclusives.  I liked the color combination on the Pink + Mustard Peony w/ Chocolate Back so that part was done.  Now I was ready to work on my personalization.  I knew I wanted my daughter's first an middle name on one side but I was really at a loss for the rest of the blanket.
Since my daughter is 2 I wanted to use a saying that was a little more grown up for her.  I browsed through all the recomendations from Fill in The Blankie and looked through the blankie gallery to get some ideas. I eventually settled on this;
What are little girls made of?
Sugar and Spice and everything nice
That's what little girls are made of.

These are ULTRA personalized baby blankets.  There are so many great ways you can make these blankets your own.  Your own personal  font, message and designs.  They even offer glow in the dark thread so your little one can see the words after the lights go out. For a little extra you can add a stuffed animal and matching bag to the blanket.  I was able to get the complete set and it looked great when it arrived in the mail.  I have washed the blanket and my daughter has been lovin' on it.  These blankets will grow with your little one, when they are a baby they can sit and play on them.  As they grow they can use it as a true blankie when sleeping.
 
Fill in the Blankie doesn't just do newborn baby blankets. They also do baptism and christening gifts.  It's the perfect gift for that special little one in your life. 

Win it: 1 Coupon Clippin' Mommy reader will win $150 digital gift certificate towards a custom blanket from Fill in the Blankie.

Mandatory entry: Let me know what you would say on your blanket. You have up to 200 characters (50 characters per/side). Also, let me know which blanket/thread color they would choose.

Quick & Easy Breakfast With Tyson Mini Chicken Sandwiches #TysonGoodness #CBias

About Mini Chicken Sandwiches: We have the hand-sized, no drip, no mess mini sandwich solution for your busy day! They go from the freezer to the microwave to maintain freshness, and provide the good-for-you energy to fit everyone’s busy schedule. 

Review:  Our house is usually a little hectic in the mornings.  My husband is racing to work and I'm trying to get food in the kids before I take my son to preschool.  Since breakfast is the most important meal of the day it's important to me to find quick and easy items the whole family will like.

The sandwiches are super easy to make.  You pop them in the microwave for a minute and a half and they are ready to eat.  The sandwiches come with a small slice of cheese but I love cheese so I added another slice!  I also added a little bit of ranch to my chicken and some spicy mustard to my husbands. On a typical weekday morning we don't have a lot of time and rarely sit down as a family to eat breakfast.  These sandwiches are great because I feel like I'm providing a nice breakfast for my husband with very little effort.  If you're eating your chicken sandwich on the go wrap it up in some wax paper and enjoy.  If we were eating our sandwiches on a weekend I would serve them up with some fruit and maybe get adventurous and add something to them.  Bacon and eggs on your chicken anyone?

I was really excited to see a 8 pack of sandwiches was right at $5.  This is a great price especially for families on a budget.  Each pack has two sandwiches in it.  I like this because I can make them and have one for myself with one to share.  My husband loved getting this special treat for breakfast.  Chicken sandwiches in the fast food line would cost much more (and take more time to get!). 

 In the microwave.
Ready to eat!

These sandwiches are great to have on hand for holiday guests.  You can easily serve up warm sandwiches with hash browns and fruit.  Add condiments in mini dishes and it looks like you've slaved over this spread for your guests.  My husband will be home the week between Christmas and New Years so I'm sure I'll be looking for quick things that he can make and maybe I'll get to sleep in!

You can check out more about my shopping trip here in my Google+ story.

Buy it: You can purchase Tyson Mini Chicken Sandwiches in 25 states.  Buy 2 Tyson Mini Chicken Sandwiches at a participating Walmart and receive a $5 Walmart Gift Card.  Click here for more information.

Lesson Learned

After a day of running some productive errands...and checking out the La-z Boy store with my Mother-in-law I decided it was time to get started on my cookies for my MOPS table group cookie swap tomorrow.  I picked out a recipe that I had never made before but it sounded really yummy.  I picked this recipe because my token cookie is peanut butter kiss cookies but one of the moms is allergic to peanut butter (glad I found out before I made them!).  I found the recipe on Pinterest and you can see her whole post HERE.

My son and I got all ready to make the cookies and I started reading the ingredients...2 sticks of butter...make that 4 for a doubled recipe...I had 1.  Thankfully my husband was kind enough to run to the store and pick us up some butter.  We were all set.  I started pouring in the ingredients and it wasn't mixing like I thought it would so I went back and actually read the directions...opps...

I set that batch aside and started fresh.  Following the directions worked great and I was on to scooping them out...and scooping them out...way more than 24 cookies and...they aren't small.  Of course, the more cookies the better but I was doubling the batch anyways so that meant a lot of cookies!  I'm not sure what happened but on the first set of cookies a few of the bottoms got burnt so they were no good for the cookie swap.  I watched them a little closer from then on and 5 dozen cookies later I'm done!

We think they turned out pretty yummy, I can't wait to see what my friends think tomorrow.  Don't forget to check out the recipe HERE

If you're on Pinterest be sure and follow me!

#Win National Geographic Kids Ultimate Weird but True & a $10 iTunes gift card

About: Did you know that a great white shark can weigh as much as 15 gorillas, that you drink the same water as the dinosaurs did, or that there’s a car that drives underwater?

This supersized, hardcover addition to the blockbuster Weird But True series, Ultimate Weird But True is packed 1,000 amazing facts and eye-popping photos that prove truth really is stranger than fiction. With a colorful, metallic cover, a kid-friendly design, and a wacky sense of humor, this stunning book will give kids a winning combination of smarts and fun.

Flip through these boldly-designed pages and you’ll find hundreds of snack-size stories about weird animals, space vacations, wacky inventions, freaky weather, amazing feats, wild extreme sports, and more. You’ll discover:
·       A real-life Spider-Man man who scales skyscrapers with his bare hands
·       A fish that plays soccer
·       A $150,000 diamond-studded cupcake
·       A man who makes himself invisible
·       An upside-down house

·       Plus, cool illustrations, and "Ultimate Secret Revealed" features that explain the strange truth behind the most mind-bending facts, such as how it’s possible to convert peanut butter into a diamond and how frogs can fall from the sky.

Review: When I first read about this book I knew my son would love it!  He's really into books he can look at with Mom and Dad.  He was particularly bored one afternoon so I decided it was a great time to pull out the book and show it to him.  He loved it!  He sat with my husband and looked through every page.  Since he is only 4 he couldn't read the book but it was a great opportunity for my husband and him to spend some time together.  If you're still looking for a Christmas gift that is both fun and educational you still have time to order National Geographic Kids Ultimate Weird but True: 1,000 Wild & Wacky Facts and Photos.

OXY Clinical Acne Solutions Pack Giveaway

The OXY Clinical Acne Solutions pack consists of a Clearing Treatment, Advanced Face Wash and Hydrating Therapy. The salicylic acid in OXY® Clinical products is ideal for unclogging pores, and treating blackheads and whiteheads. The benzoyl peroxide kills the bacteria in the pores that cause inflammation and acne. All OXY® Clinical products contain an advanced delivery system technology that helps the product to work continuously over time. And, the OXY® Clinical Clearing Treatment has been proven to kill 99% of acne causing bacteria in 8 hours, so it starts working right away.

To make sure the OXY® Clinical products work to their full potential you have to make a commitment and be consistent! So, start fresh with OXY® Clinical and follow these insider tips to help unveil the new
you:

Give it time- There's no doubt that you can see fast improvement with OXY skin care products, but they work best when used over time.

Stick with it- Many people wrongly believe that a product worked for them "at first" but then "stopped working." Frequently this occurs because once blemishes start to clear up, people aren't as diligent about maintaining their skin care routines. Make your face a priority with a simple skin care routine like OXY Clinical! You are worth the effort.

Hydrate from the inside out- During the colder months, skin can get dried out! Drink plenty of water and use the Hydrating Therapy as directed to keep skin from drying out. If you’re still too dry, try using the Clearing Treatment less
frequently.

The December issue of Consumer Reports ShopSmart magazine, OXY® Maximum Face Wash was rated a better value for the results compared to Proactiv® and AcneFree®. According to the magazine, testers reported no statistical difference between any of the products, yet a two-month supply of the star-endorsed Proactiv costs around $40 while Acne-Free cost about $20. OXY Maximum Face Wash costs far less, around $5 for a two-month supply, which led the magazine to endorse it as a “Bargain Buy.”

Win it: 1 lucky Coupon Clippin' Mommy reader will win an OXY Clinical Acne Solutions Pack.

Mandatory Entry: Visit OXY® and tell me another product you would like to try.

Shabby Apple Bali H’ai Dress Giveaway

About: A return to what dresses were always meant to be — a one-piece outfit. No need to add anything...no tank tops, no cardigans, nothing (except accessories, of course!).

We started Shabby Apple because we saw a need in women’s fashion that was not being met. A need to make women feel feminine and beautiful for what they wear, not what they bare. We offer flirty, stylish dresses a woman can wear just as comfortably in the office, at a family dinner, or on a date. Shabby Apple is a fashion company for women, by women, and of women.

Because serving women and families is a core value at Shabby Apple, we devote a certain percentage of our net proceeds to charitable causes serving women and children.

Holiday Games Review & Giveaway

Lumps, the Elf Coal Game- To play Lumps, you gather the pieces of coal (dice) in your hands, give them a lucky shake and let them fly. The goal is to score the most points in three rolls by rolling pairs. What makes Lumps exciting is that there are four different types of dice and only a few of them have high numbers on them. After your first roll, you have to decide which dice to keep and which dice to roll again. a

Family Talk 2- A portable deck of cards with questions like, “What was life like when you were a kid, mom, dad?”, Family Talk 2 inspires meaningful conversations that allow families to reconnect over the holidays. 

Review: My husband and I enjoy a friendly challenge and play board games often.  One evening when the kids were asleep we broke out Lumps and gave it a try.  I think we played best out of 8 and I may have won 2 games.  This game is a lot of fun and encourages you to think before you roll.  Figuring out your odds of getting certain numbers is no small feat.  I do recommend that you read the rules thoroughly before getting started.  There are lots of ways to earn bonus points so it gets a little confusing.

Family Talk 2 is another fun game that gets the conversation going.  With 100 questions you can keep your family talking for hours.  I know dinner time is always hard for us.  My son doesn't like to sit still for very long.  We encourage him to sit with the whole family by asking him questions and telling him stories.  This game has helped me when I've run out of creativity.  Many of the questions even have me intrigued and interested in the rest of the families answers.  I like that all the questions are connected with one ring.  This makes it easy to keep track of and very portable.

Game are a great way to spend time together as a family.  Both of these games are the perfect size for stocking stuffers of games on the go.

Buy it: You can purchase Lumps and Family Talk 2 online!

Win it: 1 lucky Coupon Clippin' Mommy reader will win both Lumps and Family Talk 2.

Mandatory Entry: Tell me one of your families holiday traditions.
