Throwback Thursday

This picture was taken of my dad, me and my sister 23 years ago. It was taken in January of 1984. At the time i was 1 1/2 months old, my sister was 2 and my dad was 23. (Don't you just love the constipated look on my face?)

This picture was taken this past February of 2007. It's my dad who at the time of the picture was 46, me who is 23, Caiden is 4 and Hailey was 7 months old. I thought it was a really cool throwback picture because in the first one my dad was 23 yrs. old with his 2 children and in the second one i am 23 years old with my 2 children and my dad is still right there with me.

To join in on Throwback Thursday just head over to the Pinks & Blues Girls and sign Mr. Linky.

I also want to let everyone know about a contest that Adventures in Babywearing is having right now. She is giving away a $75.00 gift certifiacte to Chittypulga, the finest childrens boutique & magazine on the web today. You have until 9pm on Friday to sign up. Good Luck!!!

Contest

Andrea is having a contest giving away Skidpants by Dittany Baby


These are adorable baby legging that are longer than most other leggings. They come in two different fabrics, a cotton fabric that's thicker and a lightweight fabric that is better for warmer weather. They are one size fits all and can be worn from about 6 months to 2 years old.


All you have to do to enter is head over to Andrea's blog sign the Mr linky, post about the contest and the Dittany Baby site and let everyone know your favorite pair of skidpants. You must enter by this friday to win. Good luck.


See how cute these are...



I love this pick and white pair, it would match with so many of Hailey's outfits.




The other kind i would want would be the solid white. I know it's kinda plain but it would go with anything.

HairClip/Boob-aholic

I recieved Hailey's new hairclip that i won from Elizabeths contest last week from Lil' SugarPlum. It's so cute! It came wrapped in a little pink box with a bow on top!

It's fits perfect in Hailey's hair. Now hopefully I won't still have people asking me how old my little boy is:-)

Well Hailey is now 11 months old and I have started trying to wean her from brestfeeding...yeah not working. I never had this problem with my first, i nursed him for 4 months and he actually preferred the bottle. But with Hailey being almost one i don't want to start her on a bottle. She is VERY attached to me and to nursing, it's going to be almost impossible to get her away from the before bed feeding and the middle of the night feeding. The only thing that i've started trying is taking away the least important feeding, like one in the middle of the day.

If anyone has any good tips or advice let me know!!!

Lil' SugarPlum Contest!

Elizabeth is having the cutest contest! It's to win a Lil' SugarPlum hair clip for your little girl. They are no slip hairclips and you can get them for infants, toddlers or girls.

All you have to do to enter is head over to Elizabeth's blog to sign up, and you also have to pick your 3 favorite hair clips from Lil' SugarPlum, which doesn't sound that hard to do but once you see all they have it will be hard to choose just 3.

I think I have mine narrowed down though...

The Lil' ButterFly Hairclip

The Lil' Star Babies Hairclip

The Periwinkles Hairclip.

Aren't these all so adorable?!! Whether i win or not I may just have to head on over to Lil' SugarPlum and order some of these. They would look so cute in all the hair that has jsut started coming in on Hailey head:)

MamaKanga Contest!

Steph over at adventures in babywearing is having another contest, this time giving away a $75.00 gift certificate from MamaKanga. For anyone who doesn't know MamaKanga specializes in the comfort and beauty of babywearing.

I've always wanted to get a really cute sling but they are so expensive, with this gift certificate you could get almost anything. I've heard so many good things about so many different types of slings, that it was hard for me to pick just one.

I decided on the Catbird Baby Bijoux Mei Tai. I've heard that these are the best, the most comfortable for the baby and the mom and I love this design. It's very expensive though-$98.00, so with the gift certificate i would only spend 23.00.

I also love the brown/pink babylegs. I think they are adorable and would look so cute on Hailey.

So get over there and sign up for this chance to win a really great contest. You must sign up by friday morning. Good Luck!!!
