Bluum Box: January Review

I know it's already February, but I finally received my January Bluum Box this week! You can see my review of my box from December here.

1- This Soy Nut Mix is the only thing in this box for Mama (or Dad, for that matter). The trial packet is full of nuts, raisins, pumpkin seeds, chocolate chips and sunflower seeds and it is delicious. I just wish the sample was larger ;)

2- I've seen Ella's Kitchen Smoothies at Target and other retail stores, but figured that we'd have to wait a long while for our baby girl to be able to eat them. I was right. The expiration date on this is August 2013, and she'll only be 3 months old and unable to eat this (the recommended age is 6 months+). Hubs decided he was going to take one for the team and try it out. I'll let you know how that one goes...

3- At first I thought that babybug was a book, but after researching further, it's actually a magazine subscription for babies! You can order 9 issues for $33.95 on Amazon. The January 2013 edition is what we received, and it has short stories, songs, and nursery rhymes all wrapped up in 20+ pages.

4- The Raz Pacifier is great in concept, and when I dropped it from our dining room table, the shield closed right on up! It also will be great to toss in my purse or diaper bag since it acts as a cover for the nipple. Plus, the bear on the front of the pacifier is super adorable.

5- The Sippi Grip comes in a 2-pack; one orange and one green, orange and purple. I've seen DIY cup holders on Pinterest, but I think these are really cute and functional. You can also use them on toys, teethers, and other baby items that are likely to end up on the ground. :)

All-in-all, I really liked that last month's box included 3 items for Mama, and 3 for Baby. I'll have to wait to test most of these out, but it's also such a nice and fun thing to open each month, especially the way that baby items seem to change daily. 

I'll say that 4/5 of the items are for baby, not Mama. It's hard to review most of those since our baby girl isn't here yet, but I will do what I can!
