All board...Choo, Choo

Do you have a train lover? Are you in the market for a train set? Are you in the market in general for toys that fit your child age?

Well if the answer is yes to all the above no need to look no further than Cubbie Lee Toys Company.

Cubbie Lee Toys Company cater to children of all ages. I'm a mommy to an almost three years old boy who is obsession with anything that moves, make sounds, is loud, and of course cars, trucks and trains of all sizes and so much more. Boys and their toys, lol!

With that being said I was given the opportunity from Cubbie Lee Toys Company to review a toy that fit my son age. These are and will be my honest opinions and my pictures.

As I stated before my son is into anything that moves, makes sounds, is loud, and of course cars, trucks, trains of all sizes and so much more.

My son got to test out the train set that Cubbie Lee Toys Company had to offer. The train set came in a good size box, and everything was wrap or bag well with easy instructions on how to assemble the set and of course how many pieces for each section which was letter. After opening each package/bag, figuring out what was what, and looking at the instruction daddy was ready to set it up with the help of my myself and the little guy. Honestly, I'm not sure who was more excited about the train set, but I surely enjoyed watching my husband put yet another thing together for our son. I love how we work as a team, my husband would describe a piece and tell me what letter it was and than ask for the next thing...note while putting the train set together you will need a screw driver to screw in 4 nails. Once train set was assemble, we started putting all the accessories out that came with our train set. Beside the train set being so easy to work with the accessories that came with it was just to cute and so easy to put together as well. I love how we had trees, vehicles, a gas station, people, signs, railroad crossing, a few buildings, as well as two houses. It was fun as we had our very own little train set with a little town all in one plus the train set came with three trains to start off with, a bridge to go on and a house on the track to go through.

Let the imagination start!!! 

Now everything was set up and the fun part begin! I must say deep down inside both my husband and I enjoyed playing with it as well. I also love how my son made the sound Choo, Choo as he was moving the train around. And matter fact it's set up on our dinning room table, and he can only reach all of it with our help. You know when grandma saw the picture she is now in the market to get her baby boy his very own train table. Finally, once my son was asleep for the night, I was able to take it down with no problem, and put right back in the box where it came in. How cool is that no other box needed and easy to put away and store...a mother's dream come true, thank you Cubbie Lee Toys Company.

Here are a few pictures of the train set, my boys, and my little one! Enjoy!

And at the moment she has a special line for mother's day, so not sure what to get that special lady in your life well here you go.

I was given an amazing opportunity to wear one of those Mom life shirts, and let me tell you I wear it proud. Mom life for me is 24/7, as I'm a stay at home mom. My life is getting up at 5 in the morning send my husband off to work with breakfast and coffee, sometimes a workout, sometimes my son wakes up early and does not nap at all. Mom life has it days where I need a bottle of something strong and a bubble bath ok maybe just a nice hot bath...lol. Everyday that I get of being a mom I count them as a blessing and thankful even the tough/rough days because let's be honest those days patience can be tested, but hey that mom life! 

With that being said River Babe Threads shirts are made with great material, and some shirts run big and some run true to size. The mom shirt I own is a little big on me, but I make it work and it is so comfortable. You know there is not only cute shirts for us mom, there is also a line for the dads(hint father's day is around the corner), and of course a cute line for the kids. Check out the shirt my son's is wearing out to lunch:

And here is pictures of me!  This is everyday life and what else is a perfect way to captured my mom life shirt with my little man. No photo shoot,  No make up(which is normal, unless something special), hair in a bun, and my eyebrows need to be done. I'm not the one to hide because I want to be honest that some days well most days mom life look like this for me.

Now you need a mom life shirt for yourself or a shirt for your family member or just a gift for someone special head to River Babe Threads. Here is the website:

I love mom life!! 

What's my name?

What's my name?

Is what my 2 in half year old is practicing saying and tracing, thanks to Chalk full of design. If you haven't heard of Chalk full of design on etsy.com, you should go check it out.

The owner is a mommy and wife name Lindsay who wanted to create a simple chalkboard where her and husband could write special notes to each other, than from there she create other things that you will see in her shop that has become very popular.

I had the opportunity to review yet other chalkboard from her shop, and yes these are my honest opinions. I stated above what's my name...well that is what my 2 in half year old is learning as he knows how to say it, but doesn't know how to spell it or trace it just yet. But now thanks to his personalized chalkboard he is on the road to practicing, tracing, and soon he will be able say each letter as he trace it and say it on top of that. As I'm doing this with my son I'm thinking where was this at when I was growing up! I'm so glad that we have this one and the numbers because now we can practice with him, and when he start school he won't have a problem writing his name, numbers as he started at a young age learning. 

I may have started him at a young age but it's not everyday nor all day long he's learning, he's a kid I let him have fun but I do set aside time of learning. As you will see in the pictures I sit with him, help him, and let him try to do it on his own. Especially in one of the picture you will see that he was into it as we were tracing the letters.

Chalk full of designs has learning chalkboards, quotes, even update the baby bump or monthly updates for the baby, she even offers personalized ones, blanks ones, and so much. She also offers package deals as well for two or three chalkboards, and for a few dollars more it will come with a white marker. But not to worry if you don't get the white marker, any chalk will work and to top it off its easy to clean. These chalkboard will grow with my son as he grows, as well as so easy and lightweight to carry and move around.

So head on over to her shop,  look at her products and maybe pick up one or two items from her...trust me you will love them as much as we do.
