Sutara Banner Giveaway!

Several of you have commented on my "Rejoice" banner...isn't it fun?! Well, I have exciting news! Brenna, the mama who runs Sutara on Etsy, is going to do a free banner giveaway for one of my blog readers. You can choose from the "Hope" or "Love" banners in the photo above, or you can choose any other short word (4 letters or less) to have custom made with the fabric/colors that you prefer.

She also has so many cute things in her store...skirts, napkins, wall hangings...and there is a super cute Simplify banner in the same fabric as mine too. She of course does custom as well, you can see all of her creations here. These jeans , this skirt , and this apron are among my faves. This summer, I'm going to have her make a swirly patchy skirt for Bella.

To enter yourself in the drawing for the banner, leave a comment below telling me about your favorite thing to do when you have a day to yourself.  The cut off for comments will be Friday, Feb. 13 at 12:00 p.m. CST...and I will announce the winner shortly after that. Yay for giveaways!

Prairieland Herbs Baby Goodness Giveaway

I was delighted a few weeks ago when I went to my PO Box and discovered that my favorite ladies at Prairieland Herbs had sent me a box of their baby goodies...congratulating me on our upcoming arrival. Weeeeeee! I was so excited. When Bella was a baby, I hadn't met Donna and Maggie yet...so I was using Burt's Bees products. This time around, I will definitely be using their line...simply because it's more pure. It has less ingredients and smelly "stuff" in it than Burt's Bees and I love it.

The great news is that we're doing another giveaway...of all the products you see above! Calling all pregnant mamas, mamas with babies/toddlers, or those of you with pregnant mama friends: we are giving away the New Baby Gift Set...PLUS a stick of Belly Balm!! I love all the stuff in the gift set...especially the lavender powder (it smells so yummy!)...but my favorite so far has been the Belly Balm. I just used it once before my recent midwife appointment and as soon as I pulled my shirt up, she commented on how good my skin looked! :) I'm crediting the belly balm. It's good.

The gift set includes:

1 - 8 oz. Baby's Milk Bath 1 - 4 oz. Baby Bubbles 1 tube Baby Soft 1 Bottom's Up Baby Powder

Plus the Belly Balm (which is not normally in the gift set)

You can read more about each product here, along with all the ingredients.

If you place an order with them...be sure to mention that you saw them on my blog and they will throw in a sample of the Baby's Milk Bath! They also do a "Freebie Friday" giveaway each week on their blog, so if you love their products like I do...be sure to subscribe so don't miss it.

To enter yourself in the drawing to be held in one week (I'll do a random pick at 12:00 PST on Friday, Jan. 16)...leave me a comment and tell me one of your current FAVORITE THINGS. Your favorite memory from the holidays, your favorite blog right now, your favorite book from the last couple of months, or your favorite indulgence...you pick. I love hearing about favorites.
