My custom Hot Mama Gown...

OMG OMG OMG - Love. For years now - I have daydreamed about having my own awesome custom Hot Mama Gown... as soon as I got pregnant I immediately contacted the mama behind the magic and we worked out a plan to get it rolling... Deidrea is super mom in my eyes... juggling her business, family, interviews, TV spots like Shark Tank... whatever she does, she rocks it... and when it came to my custom gown... *maybe Im biased* but its easily the coolest one she has ever made :)

 I can't even begin to describe the excitement of the doorbell ringing and getting handed this box by Mr. UPS man... I swear my heart skipped a beat as soon as I realized what it was... I tore the box opened... drooled over the amazing packaging... and ripped open the sparkly hot pink tissue to find this <------- purely... awesomely... punky perfection... and in the perfect print... why? Because Ms. Rozzlyn has a matching blanket, onesie, and pacifier clip that I made her in this print... so of course we will be perfectly coordinating, and I can't be more excited about it...
Each Hot Mama Gown has some truly amazing features:

• Hospital / Birthing Center friendly with short sleeves and a full coverage snap-open back
• Two ribbon-tied panels allow for quick and easy access for discreet nursing

Plenty of room for a growing belly... and perfectly comfy & cozy for both before & after pregnancy. Saying I am excited to show it off in the delivery room is a total understatement... so be sure to check back soon, as of COURSE I will have to take a bajillion pictures actually wearing it :)

Also - if you're interested in your own custom Hot Mama Gown - all the info is here :)
"The custom order process goes a little something like this: Send us an email Sales@HotMamaGowns.com and tell us all about your idea. We’ll then discuss the final design and try our best to meet all your requests!"

Giveaway Day! MEandREEKIE Skull Booties size newborn - 3t!

This weeks giveaway totally blew my mind. And, im SO sorry that it took me so long to get it going... its just been so crazy around here as you all know. BUT I hope you can all forgive me when you see this giveaway!!!

This week, we had the privilege of trying out a pair of black & white skull Booties from MEandREEKIE.

When I saw them in her shop, i thought they were quite possibly the cutest things i had ever seen. And at the time, her new little shop only had 19 sales!! I knew I could help to change that, and here we are. She graciously sent me the most amazing pair of shoes my boys have ever owned. The photos do not even do them justice. I opened up my package and honestly just couldn't believe it. The quality is by far some of the best I have seen on etsy... the materials? Top of the line... Every detail is perfection... "Boots have black cotton duckcloth on the outside (denimlike weight), soft, fuzzy, ivory fleece on the inside, next to the babies skin. Skull and crossbone ultrasuede applique are cut and sewn by me! Elastic in the back, around the ankle and a snap closure. Bottom is made of ultrasuede (ivory for smaller sizes, black for those over walking age). All seams are enclosed in bias tape to ensure the utmost comfort of your babies tootsies! These booties will not fall off! Guaranteed to last through your next child as well :) Available sizes, Newborn, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 months, and 2-3 years" When she mentions the "fleece" inside i really think its an understatement... to me its like a Minky Lambie... it is soft like butter... so squishy... so warm... and totally baby approved. How do I know? Because ever since they came in... zavery spends about 3/4 of his time wearing them.

The other night was a TOTAL meltdown because I took them off to change his diaper and put on jammies... footie Jammies... well he wasn't having ANY of that, and made me put the booties ON TOP of the footies... can you believe it? Its a true story. I couldn't help but laugh and think.. i totally have to mention this in the review, lol.

Not into the black and white skull booties? (is that possible? lol) Have no fear... there are SO many other options in her shop...
First off, the girlie version.... Pink with a gray skull.... ADORABLE!


You can create your own... Gray denim w/ your choice of fleece... "FLEECE CHOICES - please specify when ordering:
white, ivory, light yellow, bright yellow, light blue, aqua blue, navy blue, bright pink, tangerine, burnt orange, red, lime green, olive green, forest green, lavender, grape, burgundy, eggplant, brown, black."



And my personal favorite (aside from the b&w skulls) Is the black with the red check/houndstooth..


I really recommend these 100% to anyone with a kid in the newborn to 3 range. Zaq has even been requesting a pair for himself... first thing he said... I wish i could have skull booties like that!! Maria? Christmas perhaps? lol could ya make that happen?

Well anyways - I know what you guys want... your prolly thinking... GET TO THE GOOD PART! WHAT CAN I WIN!? Well, one of you lucky readers get to pick your choice of one pair ofbooties valued from $19-$22. Be it skulls, or flowers... or something custom... its just for you :) And obviously, you choose your size as well. Could it get any better? No way... :)

You NEED this bib from Evelyn Kate - Free giveaway!

Wow - can I saw wow? Because this is definitely a wow kinda giveaway... I first started talking to EvelynKate back in MAY about a giveaway... BEcause I saw her shop and just fell in love... one thing led to another and we got off track and it didnt happen. Recently I contacted her about joining into the Gwen Stefani gift basket that I helped Melissa at Little Peanut Boutique host... she was thrilled to join in and we started talking again about the giveaway... and guess what, its happening... right... now... :)

I could tell just from the photos, that the quality coming out of this shop was amazing... Take a second to check it out... They have everything from standard waterproof bibs... to shirt bibs (my new favorites)... Diaper Duty's... Pacifinders... and more. Each item looks equally amazing... and seeing it in person just verified it even more. This week we got to try out one of their amazing shirt bibs. They come in a HUGe variety of prints... from modern... to retro... to my true loves ( skulls & bones :)

Lucky us, we got to try the amazing Regent Skulls print... ( again my favorite ) Upon trying this bib out, I have found my new obsession... and lemmie tell ya why.
#1: The bib is made to perfection... and im picky... Not a single stitch is out of place. Is amazing.
#2: Its full coverage... not like a bib that hits about the bottom of the ribs... so even the messiest eaters stay clean.
#3: BEcause its full coverage... Zavery ( who usually rips off bibs) doesn't even notice it, because its really like a tshirt.
#4: You can choose from three sizes of the bib... Size Large worked great for both Izzaq & Zavery @ ages 2 & 3 and will work for a long while yet...
#5: At the bottom is a little pocket... so that way the tumbly crumblies dont hit the floor or your lap.
#6: My favorite part, you dont even have to wash it... just grab a wet rag and wipe it down... you only need a couple to rotate... not a ton like most regular bibs that you have to wash over and over.
How great does this bib really work? See for yourself...

Notice the yogurt dripping down the front of Zave's cutesy So Cal Baby shirt...


and then notice the nice sparkly clean izzaq... :)
There is no way that he could get messy with that bib on! Do you know what this does for my life with 2 toddler boys!? Well, I was so beyond thrilled with this product that I ran out and bought another one :)

Did I mention it was even on sale!? I got this awesome bib for just $12.50 and now its only $12!!!

So, a little recap... its really hard for me to be passionate about finding a baby item... my whole business is based around baby items... and I can pretty much make anything I need... and if I cant? My girl Brooke can, haha But these bibs, I really totally 1,000% support them and what they do. To be completely honest, I wish I had thought of it first, haha. So go... shop... check out her store... buy if you can, i promose you wont regret it. Everything is totally reasonably priced... And they even have a nice Clearance section. Ill even give you an extra entry if you buy :) Oh, speaking of which.......... you probably want to know what you win!!
This weeks winner gets two prizes! A whopping $40 value. You get: One of the amazing t-shirt bibs in the Day of the Dead print below. Totally awesome and perfectly unisex so everyone is invited!

Also - the Diaper Duty... which we didnt talk much about... heres a clip from the listing...
"Our bag features a button closure and a snap on the strap to allow you to attach the bag to a stroller bar!
The bag holds:
*A red toile oilcloth changing pad 12"x16"(included)that folds up to fit inside (this is a compact pad meant to be placed under baby's lower half)
*your wipes case
*about 2-3 diapers"
Your prize:

This WEEK! A RockerByeBaby Review!

I feel giving today...
SO!
This week... Free RockerByeBaby!

Im giving away a free set of Japanese Kawaii Booger Bashers!!
They are awesome black with pink and turquoise skull and crossbones on it.
Totally unisex so snatch them up!

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23368646


The listing info :)
So, the boys have a cold...
its horrific... ill spare you the green crusty/slimy details :) haha
But the point here is... their little tiny noses get RAW using tissues...
not to mention were just trashing the environment using a kleenex once and tossing it...
THINK ECO-FRIENDLY!!!

But, I assure you people... there IS a better way...
These have been tested this week...
GROSS NO NOT THESE SPECIFICALLY!!
DIFFERENT ONES!! THESE ARE NEW!!!!!!
and I call them Booger Bashers...
known to others here on etsy as Swipers...
They are little mini tissues... about 4 x 6.5 inches...
with JAPANESE IMPORT KAWAII cotton on one side...
and soft and snuggly on the other...
Wipe with whatever side you choose...
Cotton is still plenty soft... or the other side works just as well...
Same idea as a handkerchief... use it... use it... use it... GOO! then WASH IT!!!
No special rules... wash... dry...
Then go off on your hunt for more Boogers that need Bashing.
You get 2 in a pack... now thats alot of BOOGIES!

BUUUZZZZZz Who wants a happy baby? I DO I DO!!

Saying that today was a rough day...
would be an understatement...
Crabby, fussy babies... allllll day...
napped terrible... hardly ate...
and to top it all off.
Our saving grace of getting them out of the house couldnt happen.
It was cold and rainy all day. :(
Sad mama...
And just as my head was about to start spinning in circles...
EUREKA!
I remembered I had to do tonights review and we could FINALLY

Ive been dying to get one of these...
and I was gunna buy them for christmas, and put it off...
bought some chunky toddler crayons instead...
(which turned out to be more of a snack and a fight with my 1 year old... haha)
I shoulda just bought these.

The boys LOVED it...
I dunno what magical powers she sews into the seams.
(the perfectly straight seams i might add)
But somehow it is WAY cooler than just a pack of crayons...
I pulled it out, and the boys were silent...
colored... had fun... and mommy could breathe...
Happy Baby... yeah - she chose the perfect name.
They open up to be the perfect little crayon holster...
and roll up tight to toss in a bag... a drawer... where ever...
and keep all your crayons nice and tidy.

Mess free, clutter free, drama free... just the way I like it...
And once again. Made with one of my favorite prints... Goth Baby Skulls.
So cute... and totally unisex.
Check it out... They loved it..
I couldnt choose a favorite photo...
so I chose them all :)
My little lefty - coloring mama a picture...

and hiding from a picture..... haha

and so happy to have a new toy... that he is even hugging his little brother...

**sibling loving & hugging results not guaranteed, hahaha**



So, scoot over to her shop...

Another Review! A lifesaver... FREE LEG WARMERS FROM KNOTTY BABY WEAR!

Hey all!
Thanks for always coming back to check us out.
I have the best readers ever!
Now that the sappy part is over, its time for the fun stuff!

KNOTTY BABY WEAR!
www.knottybabywear.etsy.com

So, were working on potty training with izzaq...
every mommy... and yes, daddy's too...
know that its a challenge.
So you gotta find the easiest way possible...
When I was little, we ran around naked...
with a potty in the middle of the room...
it worked! So thats what we do with Izzaq...
But he has to be naked... if he is wearing pants, he has an accident.
Well, we live in Minnesota... and it doesnt matter how high the heat is cranked.
Those hard wood floors and the leather couch is always chilly.
These leg warmers were the absolute perfect solution.
They allow for izzaq to be mostly naked, with his "bits" to be exposed, haha
So, no wrestling off pants or underwear...
he's just always ready whenever he needs to go.
And best of ll, he doesnt need my help!!!
See!?!?

Most importantly, they keep him warm...
Theyre even great for Zavery too!

He loves to sit on the floor and watch tv...
They love the be naked...
and these leg warmers keep them pants less and happy...
They even work on arms to go under short sleeves!
Girls, boys... toddlers, infants, or as knee socks for a little lady under a skirt or tutu!
Everyone needs a pair of these...
and Knotty Baby Wear as given us a pair for you too!
Basic black and white skulls...
girls, boys... and unisex for the bun in the oven!


So thats it... you gotta have a pair... try to win them...
and if you dont, go buy em... $8 and she even has a ton on sale for just $6
they're so cheap... and SOOOOO worth every penny...
Everyone has that in their budget... I have 3 pairs! haha

Check out her shop...
www.KnottyBabyWear.etsy.com
She has more that just the leg warmers.
Recently she started making these ADORABLE t's and onesies...
with skull and crossbones appliques...
Crazy wild prints, bright colors... just amazing...

Leave us a comment about your favorite Item from her shop...
and why you need/want these leg warmers.
and don't forget your email address!

*Bonus Round... Get an extra entry in the contest by blogging or posting about this review!
