CLOSED

Well, Day 1 seems to be going well! One thing I forgot to mention is when all of these are ending. I haven’t decided if it’s going to be a week from now or two weeks from now. I’m thinking it’ll be a week from now, cause I’ll be out of town again in two weeks… So we’ll see.

I hope you’re having fun with this! I know I am… And this is really a fun way to thank you for all of the advice and encouragement you’ve given me… You ROCK! I’m hoping one of the days to have a LIVE giveaway, and the 5 or so items I give away that day will be given to random number commenter. The only thing is that goes better with comment moderation “on” and I’m visiting with family so I’m not sure I’ll have much time to do that, we’ll see! If I do do it, it’ll probably be either Thursday or Friday… Just an FYI.

But on to day #2, which are mommy-themed items or gifts!:

Our first prize for you today…

8. Heather from GeorgiaBlue’s Etsy makes BEAUTIFUL little clippies for little girls. They don’t slip. And trust me… She knows that works. She has a two year old and an eight year old herself, and both wear them. She says her two year old Georgia has some pretty fine hair but when she wears the clippies she looks so cute and they even stay in place!.. From what I hear that can be a challenge with some kids. her eight year old wears them too, to accent funky buns or she picks out sassy clippies to pull her hair to one side in. They are well made and all ends are heat sealed to prevent fraying. I looked at her site and couldn’t pick out my favorites cause there are SO many.. But guess what? She’s not going to limit you either! The winner gets a $25 gift certificate to her shop and can buy all the cute clippies they want! Check out her site and let me know which style or set you like in the comments section!

Still haven’t had enough? This one is great if you have a little boy or girl or have a friend who’s having one!…
9. This next prize is from Hippo Baby. With stuff you HAVE to have… No really, they have some CUTE stuff! The boutique offers unique, useful, & memorable gifts for Baby, Mom, & Daddy too. One thing I thought was cool was a chew-toy necklace that mom can wear… Now why didn’t I think of that? But what I have for you is also cool.. and one of their newest items… A BandanaBib… That’s right, your little guy OR gal is going to be eating in STYLE! I really like this striped one pictured but there are so many cute ones! So go check it out, and let me know which one you want!

This next prize is so adorable I literally can’t stand it!…
10. A little giraffe-shaped rattle from Bundled’s Etsy Shop. It’s a sweet little giraffe rattles in bold prints make for tons of gentle fun for your little one. Soft cotton fabric bodies are easy for baby to grip, shake and chew. Little jingle bells on the inside and soft fabric loop ears and tail make for a “not to loud” distraction too! Mix and match with a Roll-Up or washcloth set for a perfect baby shower gift… Seriously, I kinda want to get one for Snoop. I’m SURE he’d love it! So… Have a baby or dog you want to get one of these for? Check out her site and let me know you’re favorite color and if I draw your number it’s YOURS!

And last but not least for today…
11. I don’t know about you but sometimes I did wonder if there was a yummy way to make breast milk better. Well, HardierLime’s Etsy Shop is here to hook you and your ladies up too if you know what I mean! One of you will be winning a small bag of Mother’s Milk Enhancing Cookies. Oh, and I may have to chat with you about your reaction to this stuff too!.. It could make a fun post later. Heidi said her best friend had twin girls a few years ago and introduced her to the basic recipe for Lactation Cookies when she had her daughter last year. She says she’s taken the general recipe and improved it, and has since made it many times. Everyone is different, but as an exclusive pumper, she says she’s always seen good results after just a day of enjoying these delicious cookies.

Now you can make Lactation Cookies yourself with just a few extra ingredients you already have in your kitchen, without running all over town to find the specialized ingredients, spending a lot for the small amounts needed for the recipe or taking the time to measure everything out. It’s all in one mix, from her kitchen to yours!

So check it out and tell me which flavor you want so you can eat some yummy treats and get your baby some yummy milk!
