review & giveaway :: Nourish
Posted on | November 30, 2009 | 19 Comments
it’s literally impossible for me to leave the house without forgetting at least one really important baby item. i don’t think there has been one time since Harper was born that i remembered everything necessary to bring a baby in public. the most annoying is that is almost always something really important. diapers? check. desitin? check. wipes? FARK.
my most common mess up is things for her to drink. luckily now that she is older, liquid doesn’t equal food, but i felt like a horrible parent more than a few times when i forgot one of the following lists of components to make my child a life sustaining bottle : bottle. formula to insert into the bottle. bottle cap so when i shake the bottle it doesn’t go squirting everywhere. water already in the bottle so i don’t have to find a questionable drinking fountain to fill bottle. ugh.
when Nourish sent me their Nourish Toddler, a BPA free, recyclable, sealed and prefilled sippy cup, i was stoked. it’s perfect to throw in the diaper bag and not have to feel guilty that i forgot something for the kiddo to drink. it’s 10 ounces of purified spring water that is ready to go with a sippy cup top and lid. i only wish i had known about Nourish sooner, because their Nourish Baby is 8 ounces with a nipple top and wide neck perfect for pouring formula into.
i could go on for a while about how great of a product this is, but the fact is, it’s simple. it does just what every mama needs, which is make things easier. my only complaint? i can’t buy these at any store near me (get a list of their retailers here) and buying it by the case online is really pricey with the shipping. they do have a retailer form to give to your favorite local store so you can request they carry it. i personally think starbucks should jump on this, but what do i know, i’m just a blogger.
and and since we all know the struggles i’ve had with the sippy cups and i know from your comments that you have had troubles, too, yes Harper REALLY drank her Nourish water (i know, it’s a miracle!).

reaking away from my hot chocolate and sitting by my christmas tree to come and blog is hard to do, but it must be done (because you might die if you don’t know what’s going on in my life right now?). we have had such a busy and awesome few days! we headed to yakima for thanksgiving with Scot’s family on thursday morning. putting clothes and makeup on before 7 in the morning was, well it was hard for me. Harper however was stoked to be pulled out of bed at such a ridiculous hour, but mainly because her daddy woke her up and she always flips when he’s around in the morning. after a much needed ‘bucks drivethru trip, we hit the highway and arrived safely in eastern WA ready for turkey.
ello all! how was your turkey day? mine was full of happiness, and i’ll be sure to blog about it tomorrow. for now i wanted to announce the winner of the eebee’s Mix& Mash Adventures cookbook:
