*This post contains affiliate links Out of my 3 potty trained kids (the fourth is 7 months so we haven't gotten there yet), 2 of them still have issues with bedwetting at night. My oldest only needed pull-ups for a couple months, and then was completely night trained. My now 7 and 5 year olds, however, are wet about 80% of the time in the mornings, so we have been searching for an alternative to pulls up. Not only are pull ups expensive, but they absorb all moisture so don't really encourage kids to get up and go to the bathroom. Which brings me to Peejamas. They slowly absorb liquid, and not as much as pulls ups, which causes the child to feel the wetness and get up and go to the bathroom. Peejamas can absorb roughly 3 pees a night for light to moderate pee-ers and can be washed 300+ times, making them the perfect stepping stone to overcoming nighttime potty training. I was so excited for my kids to try these out, and have nothing but great things to say about this brand! They're cheaper than buying pull ups. They're eco friendly (no more throwing away 2 pull ups EVERY morning). They're comfortable and not soaked in chemicals (fire retardant). My kids love wearing them, and they are super cute. The first time my kids tried them on, my 5 year old didn't want to take them off, he kept saying how soft they were. I love the different prints they have. Also, as you could imagine my 7 year old has been super self conscious about still being in pull ups. She would hide them when getting dressed when we were staying with out of town family, and was very embarrassed for sleep overs. With Peejamas, no one knows she has any sort of protection on, so it gives her so much more confidence. After 1 night, both my kids got up to use the bathroom (they're both normally VERY heavy sleepers which I think is part of the problem), and they woke up with a minimal amount of wetness. Night 2, my daughter woke up completely dry, my son only a little wet. Night 3, both woke up dry! Guys, this is huge for my kids! We've tried the alarms that go off when they get wet, sleeping in underwear (and changing sheets every morning), we've basically tried it all and this is the most success we've seen so far with any method. I'm hoping it continues. Regardless, I would highly recommend trying these whether you're just beginning to night train, or have been at it for a while. It is worth the investment and will save you big time on the cost of disposable diapers.

*I received a product for free but all opinions are my own.
Speaking of the kids having allergies, this purifier really seems to help in reducing allergens in the air. With the Fall weather unfortunately also comes allergies, and allergens in the air get tracked into your house too. Not to mention dust, and mold that can also be lingering. My kids have been coughing less and their allergies seem more controlled when we're home. The air just feels cleaner. You can get the Winix brand purifiers online on their website here or also at Home Depot and Wayfair. The purifier has a smart sensor that constantly monitors the air quality (blue is good, yellow is fair, red is poor). There's also a Check Filter light to let you know when it's time to change the filter. It's very quiet when it's running, which in our house is important because with 3 little kids there's enough "background noise" going on. Another nice thing is, you only have to replace the filter once a year. It's not like some others where you're having to change them every couple of months. Also, the purifier covers up to 320 sq. feet. Overall, this is a really great air purifier, and with the $100 off deal going on there's no better time to get one.
I'd love to hear from you guys, has anyone else tried the Winix Air Purifiers before?

Need a quick, creative dinner idea for you little ones? Try these easy, fun and delicious Deer Rice Bowls using Gwaltney Hotdogs!
My kids love to help make dinner, which sometimes makes things more stressful at dinner time, but with these fun rice bowls, kids can help "decorate" their deer and get involved with the food preparation process. With the hectic schedules as kids are back in school, we love things that are quick to make and fun to eat. And as a plus, this is something the whole family will love. These Gwaltney Hotdogs are also great for kids with allergies. Mine are allergic to milk, eggs, beef, wheat and peanuts, so finding meals they like can be challenging. Gwaltney hotdogs, however, are perfect because they're made from chicken and don't contain any of their other allergens! You can also get creative with these hotdog deer bowls. You can use corn, peas, grape tomatoes, or any other small vegetable or bean for the eyes and nose.
Directions:
Fill bowls with white or brown rice. Use black beans for the eyes and nose. Take 1 hot dog and cut in half. Cut slits in the ends 3/4 of the way down to make the antlers. Add a side of ketchup for dipping.
Gwaltney products are a great protein option and an awesome value for the price. They have 40% less fat than regular hotdogs since they're made from chicken, but they still have the same great hotdog taste.
Gwaltney has many other products as well, including Mini Corn Dogs that are amazing, and their Sausage is delicious! Gwaltney Breakfast Sausage has an old-fashioned mild flavor with just the right amount of spices, great for breakfast or any time of day. Gwaltney Mini Corn Dogs are batter wrapped chicken mini franks with a honey flavor. These would make for more quick and easy dinner recipes as well! Need more recipe inspiration?
