H-E-B Baby Diapers and Toddler Friendly Patriotic Fruit Popsicles

My little baby is now a big toddler and I constantly think “where has all the time gone?” Ava wears 18m clothes and eats all sorts of food and says a new word every day (or it seems like it to me!). She now wears size 4 diapers and even though we have tried numerous diaper brands we just now (finally) found a brand we love: H-E-B Baby diaper brand! H-E-B is my favorite grocery store brand in Texas -even though I live in Louisiana, I am a mere 30 min. from TX and make frequent trips to Beaumont for dining, shopping, and H-E-B grocery store trips! I was pleasantly surprised that they make a quality baby diaper too! They don’t leak (a BIG problem for us!) and they are both thin and absorbent with 12 hours of protection! Even better the size 4 Jumbo Diapers she wears have a zebra on the front….we love zebras and Ava gets giggly excited looking at her zebra printed diapers!

Check out our fun new recipe for Patriotic Popsicles below!

Zebra diapers- “Hooray!”– says Ava

Other raves I have for these fantastic diapers: no rashes!

Sometimes diapers tend to rub on Ava or make her break out. No probs with H-E-B diapers though since they have a hypoallergenic inner liner with Aloe and Vitamin E and a stretchy, soft outer cover and waist that fits Ava perfectly. Another plus? H-E-B offers a Money Back Guarantee on their diapers. So what do you have to lose? Try these diapers today on your little ones and you will be hooked like we are!

Patriotic Popsicles

Ingredients

1 cup blueberries
1 cup strawberries stemmed
8 oz vanilla Greek yogurt or 1 1/2 single serve containers
1/4 -1/3 cup OJ

Instructions

Using a small food processor blend strawberries with 2 tbsp of OJ. Add a couple more tbsps of OJ if needed until smooth.
Remove to a small bowl and repeat with the blueberries.
Using small 3oz Dixie cups add a heaping tbsp of strawberry puree to the cup, smoothing the top.
Add a heaping tbsp of yogurt, smoothing the top, then finally add blueberries.
Insert a popsicle stick, half way into center and place all cups on a baking sheet or in a tupperware container.
Freeze for atleast 3 hours but up to overnight.
To remove from the cups before serving: run cups under warm water for a few seconds and the pops should pop right out.
I also poke a hole in a cupcake liner and push the bottom of the popsicle stick through so it make a cute cup to catch all the drips!

Notes

You will also need: 3oz dixie cups, mini or small popsicle sticks, and cupcake liners.

Dixie cups, Popsicle sticks (I used mini but next time I would get longer small sticks), and patriotic cupcake liners.

We also have a freezer stocked with frozen fruit for smoothies and popsicles!

Take a handful of strawberries and remove the stems.

Cut in half if you would like to and pulse in a food processor with a few tbsp of OJ until smooth.

Easy and tasty fruit puree!

I use nonfat vanilla Greek yogurt for the center portion of the pops.

Fresh picked and washed blueberries!

Puree one cup of blueberries with a few tbsps of OJ.

I place the Dixie cups in a Tupperware container that I can easily place in the freezer. You could also use a baking sheet

Add strawberries, then yogurt, the blueberries. Smooth down in between each layer.

Then add a popsicle stick halfway into the pop.

Place in a container and freeze for 3 hours and up to overnight.

To remove pops from cups run under water for a few seconds or simply peel the paper off.

Red, white, and blue Patriotic Pops perfect for the kiddos!

Pop a cupcake liner underneath and it saves the mess of drips!

Ava didn’t waste any time!

My teething toddler loved her Patriotic Pops!
