5 Things Friday XVI

May 13, 2016 | baby, running, running gear, Running Skirts

Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday! Youโ€™re welcome. Bust day of workout and work ahead of me, but the sun is shining and itโ€™s Friday. I hope everyone has a great weekend! Catch ya on social media until Monday.

1.) Running Skirts has come out with a new ADORABLE compression sock with tiaras on them! Love! Even better, right now you can get these socks with free shipping. This probably wonโ€™t last long so I would jump on it.

2.) Last week I spoke of loving the chocolate chip Complete Cookie. That was until I tried the birthday cake flavor. Holy cow, this is good stuff friends! If you like cake flavored things you should check these out. I love that I can get a box of twelve because Bobby keeps stealing them.

3.) My child loves ducks and is not afraid of them. There are some pretty aggressive ducks at one of our local parks that will come right up to you if they think you have food. My kid is like โ€œwhatevs, I just want to hug them.โ€ I love that she is obsessed with animals. Sweet baby. Now I just hope she doesnโ€™t get attacked by one and scared for life.

4.) Does anyone have any experience with this particular water and sand table? I saw it at Samโ€™s for a great price but haven’t heard reviews on this one. Thoughts?

5.) As a Rock โ€˜n blogger, I get fun things from time to time like the Eagle Creek gear I made a video for last week. This week I got this great training journal and book about proper eating for athletes. Canโ€™t wait to dive right in! Thanks Velopress!

QOTD: Any experience with water tables? Any scary duck stories? I have been bitten several times. Favorite Complete cookie flavor?

    The ducks!! I love that! Ellie hasn’t gotten close enough to ducks yet, but she does love animals in general so I imagine she’ll be like Emma Kate!

    I don’t have that particular water table, but if you do get it, I would fill both sides with water and no sand. From what I understand, the sand/water tables get gross because the kiddos mix them and you end up with all mud. We have the Spiralin’ Seas one from Little Tikes, and it’s been fine. Really, any of them will be great as long as they have water to play in. http://www.amazon.com/Little-Tikes-Spiralin-Waterpark-Table/dp/B004INDQWY/ref=sr_1_sc_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1463187173&sr=8-1-spell&keywords=sprialin+seas+water+table

Just got back from the cutest cabin in Pigeon Forg Just got back from the cutest cabin in Pigeon Forge and had to share a travel hack for all my fellow moms planning summer getaways. ๐Ÿ’ก(ad)

We booked with @savvy_stay, which means no third-party fees, no fluff โ€” just direct access to professional hosts and more room in the budget for fun. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ 

They even have a price comparison tool on their site so you can see what you WOULD be paying if you went with โ€œthe other guys.โ€

Think: mountain views, family memories, and extra savings that actually make a difference. If Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge is on your list, do yourself a favor and check out Savvy first!
