Road Tape That my Nephew Will Love

I feel like there are new uses for tape popping up ALL over the place! The latest and greatest? Road tape! My nephew loves anything to do with cars and racing (imagine his excitement when the movie Cars 2 came out!) His birthday is in late February and of course, it's "cars" themed!

So you can imagine MY excitement when I discovered this road racing tape and I know that it's going to be a perfect addition to his gift. We got him a HUGE set of cars with a "parking garage" so he can put them all away when he's done using them--ha, yeah right!

He can make roads where ever he wants to, and even make a little town out of all of the roads! He will have a blast with this, as he can make them all over the house!

A Home Safety Kit is a Great Baby Shower Gift

I have a baby shower to go to for my best friend next month. She is expecting a baby boy and I can't wait! I am SO excited for them. I have been shopping for gifts for months (as soon as I found out she was pregnant!)

I am giving her a HUGE bin full of things--both practical and fun! In it, I have included a ton of necessities, such as diapers, wipes, Desitin, washclothes, baby wash/shampoo and more. For "fun" things, I got the baby some rattles, books, and a couple of super cute outfits. There are a couple more things and the gift will be complete!

I found this Dreambaby Home Safety Kit to "baby-proof" her house. Safety is SO important when it comes to little ones that I know she's going to appreciate this!

Meat Tenderizer That Takes Grilling to a New Level

My guy and I love to grill. Well, usually it's more of an event where he grills and I sample the delicious food that he's cooking while sitting down and observing. Hey, somebody has to do it right? It might as well be me! :)

We have tried so many new recipes on the grill this summer. We tried a fun spin on kabobs and added a Hawaiian twist by adding some ham chunks and pineapple! We've also tried some new marinades and fun spices to season the meat with. I am sad to see Fall here because that means Winter comes next and that's the time of the year that the grill has to go back in the garage to keep it safe from the snow!

I found this perfect gift for my guy online while I was checking out some new recipes the other day. I figured I would order it so we could get a lot of use out of it. It is a circular meat tenderizer that has extra sharp blades to quickly tenderize even the biggest cuts of meat. I can't wait to take grilling to a whole new level with this fantastic product!

Give Him the Chance to Drive a NASCAR

Cloud 9 Living provides great experiences for people to participate in and is easy to give as a gift. You can choose from the experience type you want and many eligible gifts are available.

I found this great gift idea where you can give your guy an opportunity to drive a real NASCAR! There are different regions for which you can do this in: Washington DC, Pittsburgh, Phoenix,  Santa Barbara, Richmond, San Diego, Raleigh, Philadelphia, Kansas City, San Antonio, Orlando, New Jersey, New York, Los Angeles, Orange County, Miami,  Dallas, Detroit, Las Vegas, Columbus, and more.

This is the driving experience of a lifetime. There are professional workers to ensure his safety. There is also a racing suit and helmet available, so he can get fully suited up just like the professionals. He will be the envy of all of his friends!

iPad

I made the mistake of asking Alex what he would like for his birthday coming up in June. I still have plenty of time but I like to think about what I will be getting, and in this case, saving up! He told me that he would really like an iPad. He has an iPhone and loves it. He is turning into quite the Apple product lover.

The iPad 3 is the newest version of the iPad. It was released this month and is a huge hit! I had the opportunity to "play" around on one a few days ago and it was great. (Maybe if I get this for him, he'll let me use it sometimes!).

It's currently available in 3 sizes. By sizes, I mean storage and memory size. There is a 16 GB model, as well as one with 32 GB and 64 GB. You can put music on this from your iTunes much like an iPod and iPhone. There's also a ton of great apps available to download on there, with many free apps as well as some great ones that you can pay for.

I'm think I'm going to get him this. He deserves it for all the hard work he does. I can't wait!
