TommeeTippee Sippy Cup #Review & #Giveaway

For the past few weeks we have been using the Tommee Tippee Sippy Cup. I have to say I am really liking this Sippy Cup and wish I would have found it 7 years ago! (Ok, I’m not sure it’s been around that long!) I have had no leaks with this cup, on it’s own. I deliberately shook the cup upside down to see if it would leak. It did force some out that way, but just sitting around the cup works great for us. There was one night that it was even left on the couch upside down all night, accidentally and when we got up in the morning there was no wet spot! If that had happened with any of our other sippy cups there would have been a puddle for sure. I’m more on top of washing my sippy cups than I was in the past, but I have to say that so far I’ve had no problems washing this cup, either! I’m sure if you left milk in there to get nasty, you’d have problems getting it out of the crevices, but if you make sure to at least rinse your cups out when you don’t have time to wash, you should have no problems. Tommee Tippee Explora Sippy Cups are sold at Target from $4.99-$8.99 depending on which type you choose. They have some really cute designs on them. One of the things I do like about the cups is that they are not branded with some cartoon character on them. I’m not very fond of my kids being a billboard for a brand. Especially as children, their tastes can change so quickly!

There are several stages of Tommee Tippee Cups. They have the trainer, sippy, flip top straw, water bottle and drinking cup. My son is using the drinking cup.

Easy to drink. Impossible to spill. The Tommee Tippee Explora line of BPA- and phthalate-free,
dishwasher-safe toddler drinking cups are easy to drink from and absolutely non-spill; no more leaks.
It’s not magic, it’s science. Our physicist-designed valve allows for easy access to liquid with no spills
so your child progresses naturally, without tears, fuss or mess.

Little Man loves his new cups and wants to use them all the time. They have worked great for our house and I hope they do for you, too. How would you like to win a set of Tommee Tippee Sippy Cups for your child?

Chicago Fire Soccer Game and Quaker #Giveaway #QuakerFuelsFire

On Saturday, Buddy and I had the opportunity to see the Chicago Fire Soccer team play. My husband was a bit jealous because he’s a big soccer fan! It was my first time going to a professional soccer game and didn’t think about the fact that it’s an outside sport! It was a little chilly and about to rain. Buddy and I first went into the store and bought a blanket and he wanted a Fire Foam Finger. We met our group outside which consisted of Kim, MJ and Caitlin and our kids. We were taken up to the Quaker box suite, where I let out a huge sigh of relief. We had the option of being inside or outside to watch the game.

Inside the box, Quaker had a ton of their yummy snacks set up, plus little finger foods like mini burgers and giant pretzel sticks with cheese to dip in. Quaker really treated us right for the evening. First a little about Quaker and Chicago Fire:

The Quaker Oats Company, a division of PepsiCo, and The Chicago Fire Soccer Club are kicking off a season of food, fitness and fun for the city’s soccer fans and families. The club named Quaker as the official Breakfast Foods & Nutritious Snacks Partner of the Chicago Fire, and the centerpiece of the partnership is the new 2012 jersey, which prominently features the famed Quaker logo in a powerful yet classic design. This is only the Fire’s second jersey sponsor in the club’s 15-year history.

Throughout the partnership, Quaker and the Chicago Fire will team up to reach thousands of families, on-and-off-the-field and demonstrate the importance of eating right and staying fit. As part of this shared commitment, Quaker will provide the Chicago Fire players with nourishing breakfasts and snacks to help them fuel their performance throughout the season.

Buddy and I had a blast watching the game. It ended with the Fire winning 2-1 over the Sporting Kansas City. I felt bad for the soccer players during the first half of the game. It started pouring on them while they were in shorts and short sleeve jerseys. It didn’t seem to bother them much, though, they just kept moving and kept warm. We sat outside of the box the whole time and I wasn’t near as cold as I thought I would have been. It was fun to watch the game and can’t wait to take the entire family back. I couldn’t believe the one section; they were some loyal fans! They had their own musical instruments: playing their own chants and cheers. They even had the typical shirtless guys in a row. It was very amusing!

Quaker sent us home with a really nice gift pack and they are allowing me to give one package away to one of my readers as well. We got A Sparky Fire bobblehead, a Fire soccer ball, and a variety of Quaker products – Real Medleys, Cookies, Oats, Chewy Bars, Quaker Oatmeal Squares. The kids have already torn into the cookies. I packed the chewy bars for our road trip and my husband tried one of the Real Medleys this morning for breakfast. Buddy couldn’t wait to bring his new soccer ball to the family Mother’s Day picnic on Sunday. We’re going through this stuff fast!
