For those of you who know me, you know that I am a snacker. In fact, my good friends, when they come to visit, head straight for my pantry and know they can help themselves to whatever they can fine – which is most typically just about anything!
Salty snacks, sweets, and dried fruit can be found just about any time you look. And a birthday party at the Young’s house is just not complete without a few strategically placed bowls of Muddy Buddies!
Well, I am excited about the prospect of adding Chex Mix Bars to my pantry shelf. These new snacks combine crunchy Chex pieces, pretzels and peanuts with chewy and indulgent ingredients like caramel and chocolate – Sounds like the perfect combination of sweet and salty, doesn’t it? And if that´s not enough, they have less than 150 calories per bar and provide at least 8 of the 48 grams of the daily recommended whole grain!
Guess what?
Three of you will be treated to a “Baskets of Indulgence,” complete with a box of tasty Turtle Chex Mix Bars to sample, chocolate candles, caramel lotion, and spa essentials (including a a loofah, hand massager, nail brush and spa towel)!
There is nothing better than grabbing a good book and a good, chocolatey snack, and lounging in a hot bubble bath…. A mom can dream, can’t she?
There are lots of ways for the snacker to enter. Here’s what you need to do:

Very rarely do I, as a lone adult, take all six of my kiddos to the pool to swim. If I were an octopus it might not be so bad, but I just don’t have enough arms to feel safe by myself with my babies at the pool.
I do, however, recruit invite my unsuspecting very good friends to join us, quite often. (They know I love hanging out with them!) We can spend hours at the pool as long as we have everything we need – plenty of Huggies Little Swimmers (you never know when you may need a new one), sunscreen, pool toys, water, and snacks!
It’s amazing to me how long my kiddos can play in the water… For hours they will splash, float, swim, dive, and play. Fun at the pool never seems to grow old.
I don’t mind… I seem to get a nice tan every summer!
Swim pants are a requirement for babies at our community pool, but every so often I will see an unhappy little one with a saggy diaper… Not only does it look incredibly uncomfortable, but it’s kind of gross, too.
You know what? You can get Huggies Little Swimmers coupons directly to your email box. Just visit littleswimmers.com and you’ll be saving $$ on the best swim pants (and cutest hats –>) available!
In honor of the Bloggy Giveaway Carnival going on right now, Huggies is giving one From Dates to Diapers readers a “Summer Essentials Kit,” complete with Huggies Little Swimmers swim pants, sun screen, sun sensors and some beach toys!
