Today’s giveaway is being modeled by the cutest little guy ever! (At least his mommy thinks so!)

My four-year-old son was so thrilled to have the opportunity to review this adorable puppy lunchbox! This lunchbox, by Built and available at The Organized Parent, keeps your little one’s lunch cold or warm for up to four hours. These fun lunch bags are perfect for keeping food and drinks cool on the way to daycare, pre-school, or picnic play dates. Each insulated lunch tote is designed to fit a sandwich, fruit or veggies, a juice box, and a small ice pack.

I was really impressed with the quality of this lunchbox! It is so well made and so much better than the flimsy kind you can purchase at other mass retailers. The interior also wipes clean very easily with a rag. It’s a win-win!

As a pink-sparkle-loving-girly-girl, I don’t think anything could have prepared me for raising two rowdy, “high energy” boys. I’m learning lots of new things I *never* knew before so I thought it would be fun to compile the top things I’ve learned from raising these two boys.

1. Nothing breakable is safe in my home for at least the next 16 years. Maybe longer. Actually, if I could just decorate with all Tupperware or anything that bounces off the floor unharmed, that would be a winner.

2. Boys love to wrestle ALL the time. I’m told this is normal. My nerves are hoping so…

3. Visits to the emergency room are guaranteed with boys. I think it would be great if they stamped our “frequent visitor” card each time we are there and maybe gave us free doughnuts and coffee on the tenth visit. Just a thought.

4. Brothers are tight friends. When my little one had to go to the ER (above), my oldest cried for him more than he did. They also are quick to jump in any fight where some kid picks on one of them.

5. I am not a cool mom and my “mama bear” instinct is always on high alert with my boys. Some day they may be big strong men protecting me, but for now, I will do all I can to protect them from the one who wants to steal their souls.

6. Boys love to pee outside at any random time. Boy moms, take note.

7. Boys are very smelly. I guess I thought this would get better after the newborn stage, but so far, there seems to be a fascination with passing gas — does this end?

8. Even rowdy little boys want to be held by their mommy when they are sick, or hurt, or made fun of… {love}

9. Seeing your child hurt is much worse than being hurt yourself.

10. I never understood God’s unconditional love for me until my sons were born…

11. Motherhood is exhausting, rewarding, crazy, FUNNY, heart-warming and heart-breaking all at the same time.

12. I’ve learned that I would never, ever, ever trade my sweet boys for anything in the world.
I have never laughed so much in my life! They have forced me out of my comfort zone and made me try new things that I love! I am so thankful for them every breath of every day…. even when they drive me a little crazy.
