I didn't buy much on Prime this month. The bulk of it was birthday gifts for my niece and party favors for the girls birthday party. So what did we buy?

Glow in the Dark Stress Balls

I bought these for the girls party favor bags. The kids had so much fun with them. And fun fact, they stick to the ceiling or wall and roll down for hours of fun!

Kerastase Moisture Mask

I got this because it was on mega sale and I was out of my purple hair mask. Plus my hairstylist said the purple mask is too much on my extensions and would be better off using a different mask and purple shampoo.

Folex Carpet Cleaner

This is a repurchase for me. This stuff is amazing. I spray it on clothes, the carpet, chair cushions, etc. and it always gets everything out. Sometimes I spray and leave it and other times I use my fingers or a soft rag to get the stains out.

4 Foot Floor Puzzle

I got this for my niece. She is really into puzzles and this one was large and had amazing reviews.
Small Brush Teeth Cleaners

I grabbed these for Avery since she got her orthodontia expander put in. She has been getting food stuck in her expander and these help clean it out. Plus it is perfect for using between teeth when floss won't work.

Affresh Washing Machine Tabs

This is my fourth repurchase of this item. I love these for cleaning out my washing machine. And with my new washer, I am using them on the first of every month or after I wash my dogs items.

Tom's Kids Toothpaste

This is another repurchase. The girls love this toothpaste and I love that it comes in a three pack for the price of one to two tubes.

Bob's Red Mill Pancake Mix

This is our favorite packaged pancake mix. I have bought this many times from Amazon. I think it said six times. I can't find it in the store anymore, so I order it online. It is the best!

Mermaid Night Light Kit

This was another gift for my niece. She loves mermaids and she was able to make her own night light. It was a huge hit with her!

60 Pack Mochi Valentines

I bought these for the girls classes for Valentine's Day. They love mochi toys and these ones have 60 of them with a heart shaped container and a card. Such a good deal!

All in One Food Chopper and Slicer

I recently bought this to make my life easier for chopping veggies and slicing potatoes. I make a lot of soups and sweet potato nachos and I wanted a new slicer and chopper. This one comes with 8 attachments and gets amazing reviews. Plus it is an extra $5 off right now.

12 Pack of Chokers

My girls are obsessed with these chokers. They got one at a birthday party and wear them all the time. So I grabbed a 12 pack for their birthday party. And now all the girls wear them.

The Pink Stuff

Nadine recommended this a few months ago and I finally purchased it. I tried it on some smudges that just wouldn't come off and it wiped them right away. I really want to try it on my faucets to see if it removes the hard water.

And that's it for my Prime Purchases in January. What did you buy?

Amazon Prime Purchases - December

I am so behind on blogging. With the holidays I had a few posts written, but then I enjoyed family time and never read any posts or interacted. Then I forgot to do my monthly Prime Purchases post, so here we are. Only a day or two late. Some of these are Christmas gift ideas, but they are still perfect for random gifts, birthday gifts or even Valentine's Day gifts. So what did we buy?

Golf Club and Ball Cleaning Wipes

I put these in Rory's stocking. They have amazing reviews and can clean your clubs or your balls.

Youth NFL Shirts

I got these for my girls, but they have every NFL team. I got my girls a size small and they fit perfectly. Plus I love the old school look to them.

Silicone Makeup Brush Case

I got this for myself and put it in my stocking. I usually roll up my makeup brushes in Kleenex and this seems like it is a better deal for me. I love that it zips and can fit all of my brushes. Plus it is easy to clean.

More Yards Golf Tees

I got these for Rory's stocking. I didn't really get them for a longer drive, but more so as tees break all the time and these are supposed to last forever.

Sleeping Earplugs

These come in an 8 pack. I use these to sleep every night because my husband snores and I travel a lot. They are comfortable in my ears and it was time to replace my old ones as I was on my last set.

Ruffwear Dog Sweater

I got this for Walter for Christmas as it is just like his other sweater (same brand), but this one doesn't have a zipper like the other one. I like the bottom material on this one better, but I do wish it had a zipper. Walter loves it and it keeps him warm.

Christmas Ornament

I got this for a Christmas ornament exchange. I love Christmas Vacation and this one was a hit at the party.

Slice Ceramic Blade

I saw this on an Instagram ad and thought it was really cool, but I didn't want to pay shipping on it. So I found it on IG and bought it for Rory's stocking. It opens everything!

Awesafe Biometric and Keypad Safe

Yes we bought a gun/small safe for the house. I don't care what your views are on guns, but if you have them, they need to be locked up. This one holds up to two guns and/or other personal items. Our house was broken into in 2011 and we wanted to have protection after that. And now that the girls are getting older, I don't feel safe with them just being hidden.

Mini Brands 3 Pack and Collector Case

My girls are very into playing kitchen and I thought this set would be fun for their play kitchen. It was a huge hit and they bought themselves more with their birthday money.

Ring Light with Phone Stand

I got this for Rory for Christmas since he has been making more reels and stories for his mortgage Instagram account. He complains about the lighting in his office, and this one has several settings to help with that. It has a sturdy tripod and it has amazing reviews. Plus it came with a carrying case.

Biotin

My hair was having some issues and I needed something to help with it. My hairstylist suggested Biotin to help make it strong and not break as much...plus using a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. I have been using both for a few weeks and my hair looks so much better. Plus it feels better.

3 Pack Kids Gloves

This was another gift for the girls. They needed new gloves to wear outside at school that were not snow gloves. They said these are warm and comfy.

And that's it. I didn't purchase a ton. Mostly some Christmas gifts and a few other odds and ends. What did you buy this month?
