Dok makes some amazing electronic products. 

My husband loves his new 2 Device Charger/Cradle/Clock/Speaker/Radio.  He says that he loves being able to charge his phone, while he wakes up to his favorite music.  He has 2 iPhones, one personal, and one for work.  Now, we can charge both phones at once, while my phone charges with the regular charger.  No more sharing a charger plug.  This is fantastic. 

Sarah has even used the Charger for her phone.  She loves it too. I guess I know what one of her gifts is going to be, because Joe isn’t parting with his Dok Charger. 

The charger really is fantastic, below are some features.

DOK CR09 Features:

·        Charges 2 devices at once.

·        Universal cradle:  holds phones, tablets, smart watches, portable speakers, GoPros, USB devices, and more with or without their cases.

·        Cradle adapter fits all types of phones and tablets.

·        Holds devices vertically or horizontally.

·        Uses “SCD Technology” to recognize and charge any smart device without harming the device’s battery.

·        Speaker lets you play your music from most devices.

·        FM Radio.

·        Alarm clock.

·        Compact design, measuring: 6.8” x 5.4” x 4.5”.

·        Includes a surge protector.

·        Powers with included AC power adapter or 2 AAA batteries (not included). 

The price for the Dok products is great.  I love the prices.  I can buy a bunch of stuff from them, and it still be a fair price.  I love it.  Saves me a trip to the store.  I’m doing all my shopping online for Christmas, and with Dok, it has gotten a bit easier.

Are you looking for a way to help mom relax this Mother’s Day? Below you’ll find a partial list of the wide variety of products that would make great Mother’s Day gifts from Young Living Essential Oils.

Personal Care Products such as Hair Care, Anti-Aging, Oral Care, Body Care, and Kids Care.

Wellness Products like Multi-Vitamins, Antioxidant Support, Age-Based Nutrition, Weight Management, and Joint and Mobility, to name a few.

At Home Products for cooking, cleaning, family health and even pet care!

I received a few samples from the Young Living product line.

Sensation Hand & Body Lotion  A very exotic blend of essential oils that leaves skin moist and soft, and it protects from harsh weather.

Relaxation Massage Oil Helps create a state of relaxation and restoration in mind, body, and sprit.

Lavender  A very popular scent that words great for calming and relaxation, and is especially helpful when winding down before bedtime.

Ylang ylang  A soft, flowery fragrance that is a romantic favorite. It may help with releasing feelings of anger, tension, and irritability.

I have to say that my favorite was the Sensation Hand & Body Lotion…I even let my husband try it! My husband has what I like to call ‘working man’s hands’, and they’re usually very rough and dry. After only one use he could feel a huge difference in his skin, plus he loved the fragrance to boot (which is rare, as he usually doesn’t like many fragrances)!

Young Living Essential Oils can help you in many ways. They enhance your physical wellness, purify your home, inspire a positive emotional state, refine your skin, and helps to create deep spiritual awareness.

 Take a look at the Infographic below for an example of how you can use Young Living Essential Oils throughout your day.

Young living has a process that they call Seed To Seal®. This process sets the standard for authenticity and purity by monitoring the production of their oils through this unique Seed to Seal® process.

The most rigorous quality controls possible are applied in these 5 steps:

Seed, Cultivate, Distill, Test, and Seal.

After my son was born I couldn’t sit for six weeks. Labor was difficult, there were complications, and recovery was long and hard. If you’ll ask any postpartum mom, she’ll tell you how important it is to have comfortable surroundings in bed. It is a challenging time, when I simply wanted to go out, get air, but had to allow myself the time to recover. I needed to be able to sit up in bed for those that wanted to visit, without actually sitting as my body wouldn’t allow it. A pile of pillows seemed to cause more discomfort than comfort.

The BedLounge is the perfect solution for the postpartum mom. It’s perfect for any mom, or anyone who likes to turn bed into a place to lounge. It is designed not only for comfort, but for back health as well! The BedLounge is luxuriously comfort, and designed by back experts. Layers of foam and fibers conform to your back, while still providing ample support. 

“The BedLounge was created for hours of comfortable sitting and reading. As you sink into its soft layers of down, quality resilient foam, and fleece combed fibers, you will understand why the BedLounge is more exceptional than any other comfort lounger on the market.”

The BedLounge is brilliantly designed to support your back and neck in different positions. It has supportive armrests so that your back can take it a little easier. While it is huge, and totally envelopes you, it is still lightweight and easy to carry around.

BedLounge also has slipcovers in an awesome variety. They are top quality and very beautiful, with detailing and accent buttons. The slipcovers can be removed and are machine washable – so that you can treat it like you would your bedding. Pockets on the sides allow you to slip in an extra book, your phone, and your glasses. I need not tell you how many times I had to frantically search for my glasses because I did not have where to put them while reading.

Features of the BedLounge: 

• Made of layers of down, quality resilient foam, and fleece combed fibers.
• Headrest rotates, and slides up and down, so that it will suit your needs whatever it is.
• Removable lumbar support pillow slides into a pocket in the slipcover.
• Adjustable sides help distribute and take the weight off your head, neck, and shoulders. 
• Patented “active frame” is designed to allow the key parts to conform to your body shape.
• Deep pockets on the armrests hold everything you need. 
• Removable, machine washable slipcover.
• Try it risk-free.

 Having a great, well-equipped diaper bag is the key to a successful outing. Whether it’s a trip to the supermarket, or a day on the town, you need to have all the essentials handy. 

The  Lassig casual messenger bag from HABA USA not only keeps all this organized, it is also sturdy enough to hold it all! I’ve spent too many days rummaging frantically in crowded areas, trying to find what I need, to settle for anything  less. This bag has a pocket for everything!

“This convenient messenger-style diaper bag was designed with the modern parent in mind. Under the large velcro flap, a multitude of pockets and compartments line this stylish and comfortable must-have bag. Features include a padded changing mat, an insulated bottle holder, a zippered pouch, a removable compartment, and a wet zipper pocket for damp items.”

You can even style it how you want. If Mom and Dad both use the bag, but have different tastes, you can switch out the cover for a different one. It attaches with a zipper and is easy to do. 

The wide strap on this bag is impressive! It provides superior support, even if you lug around a lot. The included stroller hooks mean that you can choose NOT to wear it and still keep the stroller basket empty. But if you do like to wear it, you still have your hands free, which is the blessing a messenger bag brings. 

Features of the Lassig Casual Messenger Bag:

• Removable, exchangeable cover flap
•  Dimensions: 14.4 x  5.5  x 12.4 inches
• Free of: PVC, AZO, Phthalates, Nickel and Cadmium.
• Wide shoulder strap
• Comes with stroller hooks
• Available in four beautiful colors and prints
• Sturdy metal hardware
• Convenient handy zipper pockets on both sides for things that you need to grab quickly.
• An insulated bottle holder that is removable 
• A removable zippered pouch
• A removable changing pad fits neatly into a flat compartment.
• Zippered wet pocket
• A removable compartment for when you need more space

I love this sturdy, customize-able bag! It has all the features that mom and baby need for days away from home. It is strong, well made, and very beautiful.

This Mother’s Day, give Mom the perfect fashion makeover. Why a makeover, you ask?

Well, all I know is that when I look pretty, I feel pretty. Feeling pretty makes me feel good. It boosts my self-esteem and gives me that edge I need to get through the tougher days.

So what makes the perfect fashion makeover for mom? 

If you ask me, a great wardrobe has a few criteria:

1. Easy
2. Comfortable
3. Beautiful
4. Fashionable
5. Affordable

That seems like a lot to ask for. Possibly too much. But honestly, it’s not. Sears is focused on bringing great fashion to all moms, and has two new lines that will take you there! I am a long-time fan of Sears for their easy and affordable fashion. I like a quick  outfit that makes you look like you’ve put in lots of thought.

Sears’ new lines offer easy outfits to cover two different needs. Metaphor allows Moms to look career ready and dressed to impress. And Canyon River Blues takes care of Mom’s everyday needs for casual wear that looks thought-out. 

These three moms got the makeover they needed:

About the Metaphor Collection: 

If you’re a working mom, but want something that’s easy, can take you from day to night, and won’t kill your budget, this is the line for you! These items are sophisticated and polished, and will make you look (and fell like the modern mom you are.

Start with a dress, such as the Metaphor Women’s Flyaway Sleeveless Dress

Throw on a pair of beautiful shoes, such as the Metaphor Women’s Milan White Platform Dress Sandal

And finish it off if you’d like with a Metaphor Women’s Ombre Embroidered Fashion Scarf

And you have a beautiful outfit that can take you from day to night in a flash! I love the bright hues of the dress, but the scarf can tone it down to make it more work-ready. Then remove the scarf, and voila! Date night with Daddy!

About the Canyon River Blues Collection:

Whether  Mom wears casual to work, or is a stay-at-home-mom, she should look good and fashionable too! Canyon River Blues has beautiful easy outfits for every day.

The Canyon River Blues Women’s Swing Tank Top has just the right amount of… well, swing!

Pair it with easy jeans, with an extra fun touch, such as the Canyon River Blues Women’s Skinny Jeans with that fun, navy seam. 

And finish it off with a pair of casual, comfy flats that have style and accessorize! My favorite are the Canyon River Blues Women’s Ahoy Navy/White Boat Shoes

Sears has something that will make every Mom feel good! If you’re a stay-at-home blogging mom, a cooking and cleaning mom, a modern office mom, or an outdoorsy mom, you’ll find something that will make you feel special as you deserve! Whether you’re looking to splurge a little, or to save a lot, you’ll want to check out what Sears has to offer.

You can find out more at sears.com/moreformom

iPhone users, meet your new best friend— the iZZI Remix lens case. 

With the iZZi Remix lens case you can enhance your pictures instantly without using a separate software or website to get the best quality photos possible. This 5-in-1 lens fits over your iPhone camera lens for a multitude of wide angle, macro and telephoto pictures.

It’s the simple, yet technologically advanced solution to get more from your newest and best camera— the iPhone that’s always at your fingertips. 

Even if you’re not a professional photographer, with the iZZi Remix lens case you always have access to a 2x telephoto lens, a 165 degree ultra wide angle lens, and a 170 degree fish eye and polarizer. As well as a 13x macro lens with a 13mm focus distance which enables you to grab a high resolution photo in seconds.

The inner clear plastic case protects the edges and back of your iPhone from scratches when attaching and removing the Remix which is made of aircraft aluminum. The case itself also has a large opening on the back which makes removal easy and safe.

The quality is great— it’s sturdy and I love that it comes with lens covers so I can just toss it in my purse or a camera bag when I’m on the go.

The 5 in 1 lens is attached to the case in a rotating triad that resembles an old home movie camera. What really sets this product apart is the Peripheral Motion Lock Technology. This advanced feature helps each lens click into place and stay put atop the iPhone. Changing lenses is a breeze— just turn and click the next one into place. 

One downside is that in order to use the macro lens you have to unscrew the ultra wide angle lens. Otherwise this product gives you very good picture quality. Photos turn out bright and clear. Just make sure you turn off your iPhone’s flash or else you wind up with a purple boarder around the edges of your photos. 

iZZi Remix is a great addition to the iPhone 6. For additional fun check out all of the available accessories. iZZi Remix comes in 5 attractive colors including white, black, blue, red and pink.

Ever wish you could purify the air in your home without a big, ugly, and bulky product that needs a filter replacement every month? Well, thanks to the Himalayan Salt Shop you can.

I suffer from allergies and have to have some sort of air purifier in my home— otherwise I’m miserable all year long. Sure I’ve been a sucker for those gaudy looking dust collectors that cost more money than I can afford to spend but now that I have my Himalayan Salt Lamp I’m breathing easier and I feel great in knowing I don’t have to shop for filters every few months. 

Salt lamps come in a wide array of shapes and sizes because they’re a natural mineral that has been mined from underground salt mines. Though you can’t specifically choose the shape of your salt lamp, you can select the size that fits your decor and your budget. 

Himalayan Salt Lamps are reddish orange in color and absolutely stunning in appearance. They’re mounted on a wooden base and the centers are drilled out so they can house the bulb mechanism for the lamp. 

When evening rolls around you turn on the lamp with the push of a button and you’re entranced by the glow that’s emitted from the salt lamp. It creates such a wonderful ambiance for our living room but would look just as great in our bedroom. To be honest I would love to get one for that room as well. 

What makes these lamps so special is that they emit negative ions into the air, which in turn bond with pollutants in the air and they’re neutralized. Something else that’s awesome is that those negative ions also combat electro-smog caused by electronic devices that you have operating in your home. 

EASY CARE

To care for your salt lamp, it’s recommended that you wipe your lamp down with a wet cloth to remove any dust or dirt that may accumulate. Once your done just plug the lamp back in and it’s ready to use. 

The Himalayan Salt Lamp makes a great nightlight and conversation piece when you have guests over. It would also make an amazing gift for Mother’s Day!
