It was my first time growing tomatoes. I ended up with 5 of them. Probably only one of them is big enough to use.

Garden update. I grew one carrot this year and cleared out some weeds to hopefully have pumpkins before Halloween.

Pregnancy and gardening are not a good combination. My garden is pretty much all weeds and beyond hope (unless you can help me fix it!).

I do have a potted tomato plant with my first tomato!

Thanks to @thisisbutterly and @drinkbai I was able to try the new Bai Antioxidant Infusion drink, not really knowing what to expect.

The Malawi Mango flavor was very refreshing! It didn't have an overwhelmingly sweet mango flavor like other drinks do.

As someone who does not enjoy drinking water, it was nice to find a low calorie drink that actually tastes good. It also has a small amount of caffeine to give a little boost to your day.

I would like to try some of the other flavors as well!

Being 38 weeks pregnant, hair removal is the last thing I want to worry about. I was excited to try out the Nair Face Hair Removal. I have annoying hairs on my chin and neck that I wanted to get rid of.

I liked the design of the applicator. It made it very easy to use. I put on a layer of the Nair cream and let it sit for ten minutes before testing if it worked. It had not, so I let it sit for a few more minutes before removing the rest.

Unfortunately for me, the hairs did not wipe off. I tried plucking them after, and they were more brittle though. I will be trying it again after the 72 hour wait period to see if I can put a thicker layer on with more success.

I saved all Elliott's old clothes as he grew out of them. I was worried that because he was born at the opposite time of year from the new baby, that we may not have enough summer vs. winter clothes in the right sizes. I really forgot how much clothing he actually had. I think it's safe to say we will not need to buy any clothes for new baby for at least the first year haha.

I was given a product to try out for free thanks to butterly.com.

I found the packaging didn't explain very well how or what each tool was. We were especially confused about what the dog bone was to be used for. I feel that there should have been instructions or better descriptions listed on the box. It also would have been better if the set included something to actually hammer or screw with the tools.

As for the product itself, the straps on the belt were a little too far towards the back. My 3 year old had trouble reaching the tools at the back of the belt. However, the materials were well made and felt pretty durable.

As for play value, once my son figured out how everything worked, he had fun using the the hammer and saw on his play table to pretend he was fixing it.
