When my daughter was born, she ened up in the NICU for a few days.  I will never forget the feeling that this little girl isn’t going to be like her easy going brother.  At 10:30pm the day she was born, she was quickly wisked away to the NICU.  After the initial shock and the next day finding out she would probably be ok, we realized, we had a princess on our hands.  Her first year of life left me tearfully calling a friend while she screamed in the background.  She is now 4 1/2.  Her favorite color is pink, her outfit always needs to be “cute”, she loves jewelry, and painting her nails.  She is also the no nonsense kind of princess who has issues with compromising.  Yet, this little tough cookie is the sweetest, most thoughtful girl I know (adults included).

This little princess loves her “pretties” and likes bows in her hair.  I came across this giveaway and had to pass it along.  If you are going to have a baby girl, or have a little girl, this is for you.  Barefoot Mommy is hosting a giveaway for A Soldier’s Flowers.  Angela makes the cutest hair bows you have to see!  While you are at it, put in your comment on Barefoot Mommy for a $30 gift certificate.

(vote for my picture.  I just submitted it up today so it isn’t up just yet.  It is the little blue eyed boy with huge dimples in a tiger outfit.  It is our youngest from Halloween last year.)

We all strive to be yummy mummies right?  What mommy doesn’t want good lookin’ burp clothes instead of cloth diapers?  Check out the giveway for Swaddle Design’s Baby Burpee.  Even if you aren’t a mommy to be, wouldn’t these make a great gift?  For free too?

When it comes to breastfeeding, I’m a modest gal.  I never fed my kids in public.  I was always worried they would pull the blanket down and I would make those around me blush.  I would sit in the car, or plan my schedule around feeding times.  This time around, I am getting a nursing cover.  Pho for Five is having a giveaway for a nursing cover from Bebe au Lait.  I put in my comment for a chance to get one of these chic covers, have you?
