Oh the things I wish I knew about when my kids were little! This week is about Shopping cart covers! I’m one of those moms who go into the store and grab a disinfectant wipe (thank goodness they have these now) and wipe down the whole cart. To know all the germs that get on the carts..yuck! How great to be able to sick your little baby/toddler into the cart with a nice big cover for them to sit on and then throw it in the washer when it’s dirty! I found this site with some pretty dang cute shopping cart covers! Ritzy Baby is the name of  CUTE little shop! Go check out all their fun stuff!

Today is for ME! he he. I am sitting here on a SLOW computer trying to edit some pictures from a photo session and I am going mad! It takes WAY to long to do something in PS that should just take not even seconds! You’d think I was going to say “a fast computer” but NOPE…I’m going to say CHOCOLATE!! HA HA HA! I’m a mom, I get stressed and I need me some CHOCOLATE!

Okay so there are these little chocolate that you can find at the check out at grocery stores. They are usually 3 for $99 or something a long those lines. Because I’m trying to maintain a weight loss that I went through this past 1.5 yrs, I will grab one because just one is enough to really make my mouth water and be satisfied! These little chocolates are called Lindt chocolates. I am not kidding you! I love these things! They melt in your mouth and are SO yummy! (second runner up…ANYTHING from the Rocky Mt. Chocolate factory!!!).

Okay today is a fun one just for MOMS (because it might be silly if dads wore this too)!

Today’s must have is Cover Girl Outlast Collection!

Okay, so I kid you not, this stuff ROCKS! If you are like me and want quick and easy, then you MUST try this stuff. I have had the Outlast lip stick and that stuff isn’t going anywhere! I was on my lips all day long and in fact, It lasted until the next day if I didn’t lick or rub my lips!

I JUST bought the Lipstain after months of wanting to try it and it’s like drawing on your lips with a marker, but it stays and looks great! I have some lip gloss that I keep in my purse, so I put some of the stain on last night before the hubby and I went out on a date. hours later, it was still on! Fun stuff!

If you have a MOM MUST HAVE, drop me an email missa425@gmail.com

Okay so do you remember going home from the hospital. New baby in arms and an ugly little diaper bag! This week’s must have is a CUTE diaper bag!!

I headed on over to:

I found this site when I went to the Mom’s who are making conference a few months ago. It’s an AWESOME spot to go if you are a mom and looking for something with moms to back it up! Moms enter the info of their fave stuff, you can fave it and then when other moms come to look (like I did today), they’ll find other moms faves! How cool is that?!

So there you have it! Some “not so diaper bag looking” diaper bags! If you have a MOM MUST HAVE, let me know! missa425@gmail.com

In my time of being a mom, I have had three strollers. One was given to me by my mom for my first son and it lasted all the way until my daughter was in preschool (so for 5+ years). We were walking to school, I ran across the street and ran RIGHT INTO the crib and the wheel broke off. I was so sad, because this stroller was great, I love it! It was a Graco.

I got a double stroller when my daughter was born, and it didn’t last long…and my third was a second hand one we got because my good one broke lol. It’s sitting in our shed not being used because it sucks like my double stroller did he he.

So this weeks MOM MUST HAVE is a GOOD stroller. I seriously used a stroller so much and it was so nice to not have to run after my kids! I’ve asked a lot of moms and the two most popular strollers are the Phil & Ted and BOB.

Love my Phil n Ted’s too! I I love that it’s a double now but a single when I will want just a single later. Since you probably don’t need a double, I’d go with any good quality jogging stroller.

Phil & Ted’s Double Sport….Love it!
~ Kerry, Utah

I do love my Phil and Ted’s double stroller with the detachable sling back!
~ Jennifer, TN

Love my Bob. Both single and double. Hold my water while I jog, has a great rain guard, my running gps fits perfectly on it, the free spinning front wheel function makes it easy for shopping, and it can go anywhere a wheelchair can go.
~ Corinna, UT

I love that it holds my diaper bag right there on the back of the handle. The handle is high and comfy. I like the storage space on the bottom too. Plus, you can change the wheels to walking mode or jogging.

So there you have it! If you are looking for a FAB stroller, you have two awesome brands to choose from! And I’ve got to say about the BOB stroller…My sister has one and that thing is AWESOME! I thought I liked my GRACO…the BOB is so smooth and SO easy to maneuver.

If you have a stroller YOU love, let us know! Leave me a comment!

Today is my first MOM MUST HAVE MONDAY…are you excited?! Just one more new thing here at the Project stay at home mom blog! I’ve asked moms all over the country what their MUST HAVES are and the #1 response was a good carrier or sling.
