Coppin's Hallmark Store-Happy Napper Review

 Coppin's Hallmark began in 1993 with one store in Logan, Utah. An online pioneer, Coppin's established its first online website in 1996.
Coppin's Hallmark has become one of the largest volume independent gift retailers in Utah and across the west (and online across the entire continental US). Coppin's has won awards, and top dealership status with many top gift brands including Precious Moments, Boyd's Bears, Willow Tree, Ty, Webkinz and more. Coppin's Hallmark strives for 100% satisfaction and offers service guarantees on shipping, quality, and satisfaction on all of your purchases, so you can be assured that you will be happy and that your order will be fulfilled quickly and accurately, and if there is a rare mistake, they will make it right, quickly and fairly. 

They even have a blog that gives some great information about some of their great products.  It is a little extra way to see what products that they find interesting.

I had never heard of a Happy Napper until I was about to do a review for Coppin's Hallmark. I looked them up on their site, and just loved them.  It has been only a few weeks since I first saw them, and I see now that they are beginning to be very popular.  Do you know what a Happy Napper is?

Happy Nappers are adorable, soft and cuddly stuffed animals that are reversible and change into pillows in the shape of their own unique Home Sweet Home. Unzip the back of the fun Happy Nappers Dragon, pull out the castle and stuff the dragon into the castle then zip up the door. Now the dragon is inside his castle and your loved one is ready to sleep with his Happy Nappers pillow. When nap time is over, ring the door bell on the pillow, wake up the dragon, unzip the door, pull the dragon out of his castle and enjoy playing with this fun Happy Nappers friend.

There are many styles of Happy Nappers to choose from, from mystical animals like the dragon and the Happy Nappers Unicorn, to favorites like the Happy Nappers Dog and the Happy Nappers Cow. These fun pillow friends when in the shape of their Home Sweet Home each feature a door bell on the side of their zipper doors and when pushed will feature fun sounds of the door bell, the snoring, and waking up of your pet. Happy Nappers make the perfect companions at all hours of the day and night! Get your loved one a Happy Nappers friend and pillow today!
My oldest is all about pillows and sleeping bags and blankets.  He opened up the box and saw the dog, and took off with it.  I showed him how it worked, and he has been sleeping with it ever since.  It really is a cute invention.  The picture above shows the dog separate from the house.  That isn't the case, which I think is good.  The dog stays attached to the house, which keeps us from loosing our house/pillow!  When the dog is out of the house, it looks like he is sitting in front of it.  Then you can kind of cram him in the house, to make the pillow.  It has the little door bell on his doghouse which makes some cute sounds.  Really, this kind of reminds me of a popple from the eighties.  I had one and loved it.  You couldn't use it as a pillow like this, so this is much nicer than the popple.  It just kind of reminds me of one. Like it says, there are quite a few to choose from from the dragon and dog, to a cow, ladybug, penguin, and even a monkey!!



Coppin's Hallmark would like to give one of my readers Happy Napper.

Help My Buddy in Beating Brads Deals-Alert funny story below

So....I have known myspringfieldmommy since I was in 7th grade and she was in 8th.  We have been buds ever since.  So, I can tell you that we have been through a bunch, including so many fashion fads.  I would like to tell you that the day I met her she was wearing red Sally Jesse-Raphael glasses!!!  Man, those were some glasses.  What?  It is funny now.  Well now that I may have embarrassed her, can you make it up to her and give her your vote in this contest?
Support My Springfield Mommy In Beating BradsDeals-(the following was taken directly from her page)


Over the weekend I shared with you that I would be one of the Bloggers competing to beat Brad's Deals.  Voting went live today and I would truly appreciate your support in this competition


If fact to thank you for each vote you can find to support My Springfield Mommy, I will give you a bonus entry into each of the current giveaways I have going, just leave the word VOTE in the comments. (I will be confirming)



www.myspringfieldmommy.com
There is nothing I love more than to have a few things on hand, you never know when there will be a need for a gift or perhaps a chance to donate to a good cause. Thanks to Brad's Deals for less than $25 I was able to find something for just about anyone that could get on my list. My first and personal favorite find is a Dolphin Pearl Necklace from SuperJeweler.com. This deal is amazing by itself, but at the checkout you have a chance to receive a 10% off future purchase offer which makes each additional necklace only $4.50. Next on my shopping trip was Graveyard Mall, where I took full advantage of the 80% off sale, grabbing the music of Mr. Rogers, Waverly Shower Curtian Hooks, and a Yuppie Leash. Graveyard does charge $8.99 for shipping, but based on the value I find it to be fair. Blair had a great deal on super cute Silky Knit Pullover that I may just keep for myself just like I plan to with the Living Social deal for dinner! I can not image a better collection of treasures for less than $25 and I know each will make someone happy when they are given.

Two New Flavors From Yoplait Greek-Chery Pomegranate and Coconut!

        
 Yoplait invites you to meet two delicious new flavors of Yoplait® Greek yogurt that are going to make getting your protein even more enjoyable: new Yoplait® Greek Coconut and Cherry Pomegranate.
 
·         Now in stores, Yoplait Greek’s inspired new flavors offer a delicious, creamy, and satisfying snack that deliver two times the protein of regular yogurt*.

·        Yoplait Greek Coconut and Cherry 
Pomegranate come in convenient multipacks with four yogurt cups that are the perfect size for snacking (4 oz.) – each packed with 8 grams of protein and only 110 calories!

·         The new flavors are delectable and fresh with the same benefits you’ve come to expect from Yoplait Greek, and are an excellent source of calcium and vitamin D.

·         Yoplait Greek now also offers Blueberry in convenient 4-packs in addition to its other original Greek flavor multipacks: Strawberry and Honey Vanilla. 

·         Yoplait Greek Cherry Pomegranate, Blueberry and Strawberry multipacks also contain delicious fruit on the bottom!

· * Yoplait Greek contains 12g of protein per 6 oz. versus regular non-Greek yogurt contains 5g of protein per 6 oz.
A recent survey conducted by Yoplait Greek found that during the peak winter months the “winter blues” are hitting people hard – and by March, they’re ready more than ever for spring/summer to come.  In fact, people are willing to go to unique and extreme lengths to escape the winter blues – with 31% saying they’d eat or drink something tropical… and some even saying they’d lay on a pool lounge chair in a parka to get some vitamin D!

Yoplait Greek can help nix those winter blues with two new flavor offerings – Coconut and Cherry Pomegranate – both available in convenient multipacks. In addition to the delicious taste and creamy texture, Yoplait Greek is an excellent source of calcium and vitamin D, and contains two times the protein of regular yogurt.

My children eat a lot of yogurt. Their school even offers their favorite Yoplait trix! We walk to school and sometimes I hand them a spoon and it is a great on the go breakfast if they want to hit the playground instead of hitting the cafteteria!! Of course it is always a handy snack when they pile in after school.  I like a snack that they can grab themselves, but I don't want them eating junk food.  I was not a huge fan of yogurt until they came out with the Greek.  The honey vanilla was my favorite, but now I think the cherry pomegranate is a close second!!! I look forward to many many more flavors of Yoplait Greek.

Thank you to Yoplait for my samples used in this review.  My opinions are my own and honest.
 

I See Me, Children's Personalized Birthday Book

 
I See Me is a husband and wife operated company and they (Allan & Maia) were inspired to begin this company after receiving a personalized book for their son in 1998. 
 
"Allan, who is a graphic designer, and I developed the first book My Very Own Name as a team. Our goal was to produce an educational book that would teach young children how to recognize letters and spell their names. After I developed the concept and wrote the book, we brainstormed together to develop the characters in the book. Allan found and hired the illustrator, and designed the book, while I wrote the business plan.We are pleased to say our books have become popular among celebrities including Courteney Cox, Brooke Shields and Jessica Alba.Our mission is to increase self esteem in children through personalized books that celebrate the uniqueness of each child. The goal of our books is to show each child how absolutely unique and special he or she is, to teach the child how to spell his or her name, and to build vocabulary skills."
 
 This is the second book that I have received from this company.  They have so many cute books including "A Christmas Bear for Liam" which I received with my own son's name.  This book is such a nice addition to their collection. 
 
 I have a strange name and can never find those cute key chains or magnets with my name on them.  My children's names are not the most popular either, so they do not get to see their names on things either. They really enjoy these books with their names on them.  My seven and five year olds are  avid readers, and I read to the littlest one three times a day, so for us these books are extra special. By the way, they make a girls version of this book in pink!!   If you click on the boys book link or the girls book link you can actually see how cute this book is by flipping through it page by page.

I See Me Books would like to give one of my readers a personalized  birthday book of their own.

Adventures in Lalaloopsy Land: The Search for Pillow


Adventures in Lalaloopsy Land: The Search for Pillow
One of the most popular toys on the planet came to life as Lionsgate released Adventures in Lalaloopsy Land: The Search for Pillow to DVD, Digital Download and On Demand.

   
 Peanut Big Top has a really big surprise to share with all her Lalaloopsy friends, but Pillow Featherbed has gone missing. So, the Lalaloopsy girls set out on an adventure to find their missing friend using creativity and all their special talents, but nothing seems to work. Will they be able to find her in time? After trying almost everything, the girls realize that only by working together will they be able to find their lost friend. This magical adventure is full of fun and friendship and it's just sew cuteAlso starring girls' favorites Jewel Sparkles, Bea Spells-a-Lot, Crumbs Sugar Cookie, Spot Splatter Splash, Dot Starlight, Mittens Fluff 'N' Stuff and Rosie Bumps 'N' Bruises, the whimsical, action-packed story is sure to delight the young girls in every family. The DVD will also contain five bonus Lalaloopsy mini adventures.
Introduced in fall 2010 by MGA Entertainment, the Lalaloopsy™ dolls have quickly become one of the fastest-growing and successful girl toy brands. Recently, the dolls were featured on the cover of two of the biggest retail holiday publications, and have been listed as a "Hot Toy" in all major 2011 holiday gift guides. The DVD joins an extensive licensing program that includes video games, apparel, activities and more.
My friend's little girl absolutely loves these dolls.  She forgot one at my house once, and apparently cried for an hour.  When my friend heard about this movie, she couldn't wait to tell her little girl.  Of course, that is all the little girl talked about for a week.  I was lucky enough to get a copy, and took my son and went over and let her watch it.  Oh my goodness, if the girls that watch this are even half as excited as her, then I think its a hit!!!  I am not sure how many times she has watched it now!!!

You can pick this up on Amazon right now for 9.99 or at many other fine retailers.

Thank you to Lionsgate Entertainment for my review copy.  All my opinions are my own and honest.

Dole Fruit Smoothie Shakers and Single-Serve Frozen Fruit Cups Review and Giveaway

Dole has introduced two new items.  They have a new smoothie shaker and single-serve frozen fresh fruit cups.  We love fruit and smoothies so we were excited about their two new products.
 
New DOLE  Frozen Fruit Single-serve Cups, with the Nature Lock guarantee of fresh fruit taste, texture and nutrition, are the convenient and delicious way to enjoy Strawberries wherever and whenever you want.
Each 3oz cup contains a full serving of all-natural unsweetened fruit with no added sugars or preservatives, is rich in antioxidant Vitamin C and only 35 calories.
Enjoy DOLE Strawberry Frozen Fruit Single-serve Cups at home, in the office or on-the-go. They are a perfect quick snack for the entire family.
Look for strawberries, blueberries, and pineapples.
 
I like to send fruit for my children's milk breaks.  Not is it only nutritious, but my son has a classmate with a nut allergy, and fruit is the easiest thing to send.  I enjoy sending in fruit cups as well.  I liked to see that Dole had made an individual frozen fruit cup in addition to their shelf stable varieties .  You can't get blueberries or strawberries in a fruit cup on the shelf!! The frozen ones give us an extra varitey. With these, I can stick them in their bag in the morning, and by milk break they are ready for them to eat.


Say "bye bye blender" with new DOLE Mixed Berry Smoothie Shakers- the easy, nutritious way to enjoy a great tasting, real fruit smoothie any time of day. Just add your favorite juice and shake! 
Mixed Berry Smoothie Shakers, made with all natural fruit and real yogurt, are a fun way to add healthy fruit and yogurt to your diet. Mixed Berry Smoothie Shakers contain Pre & Probiotics (live andactive cultures), are a good source of calcium and are nutritionally fortified with an extra boost of protein.
Each 11 oz serving (prepared with 7oz of Juice) is under 200 calories, low in fat and trans fat-free. 
Look for mixed berry, strawberry, and strawberry banana shakers in the  frozen aisle!

The mixed berry smoothie shaker was our favorite.  I have made several of these for my boys as an after school snack.  I have been letting them pour the juice in and shake it themselves.  I think this makes it more fun for them.  You can use any juice that you want, which can really produce many unique flavors of smoothies!! For example:  white grape juice with mixed berry, or orange juice with strawberry!

 The whole container makes 11oz, so my two littlest share one.

Dole would like to send one lucky my okcmommy reader 6 coupons to try the products out. (3 for the shakers, and 3 for the frozen fruit cups)
Want to win?  Here's how!!
Leave a comment telling me which of the three shaker flavors might be your favorite.

NEW Jimmy Dean Quesadillas Review and Giveaway


America’s favorite traditional breakfast sausage brand*, has a new line of frozen breakfast products – Jimmy Dean Breakfast Quesadillas – giving busy families a quick and easy way to enjoy a delicious, Mexican-inspired breakfast with protein.  Made with perfectly seasoned Jimmy Dean pork or turkey sausage, families looking for a warm and satisfying breakfast can now spice up their morning meal with a convenient new option that is ready to eat from the microwave in three minutes.  
 
Jimmy Dean Breakfast Quesadillas combine high-quality savory ingredients in a flour tortilla and are available in two varieties, Jimmy Dean Sausage Quesadilla with pork sausage and Jimmy Dean Delights Turkey Sausage Quesadilla, a better-for-you option that contains 250 calories and half the fat of the leading breakfast sandwich.

    My boys love quesadillas, but sometimes I don't have to make them.  They are already huge fans of Jimmy Dean's Sausage on a stick, so when I told them that the quesadillas were made by the same people, they were very willing to try them.  We tried both kinds.  My favorite was the sausage and eggs.  The best part about it was that they were ready in only 3 minutes!!!  My boys can almost be patient that long!!!
