Cheerios Spoonfuls of Stories

I would love to be an author. I feel like I have a lot to say! And when I really apply myself, I know I can say it well. ;) Children's books are magical. It takes a very special type of person to be able to "speak" to children. I may give it a shot one day!! In the meantime, I think it's wonderful that Cheerios is doing this:

Bibagogo Giveaway

It has happened to me a zillion times: we're out to eat. Like a good Mommy, I packed all the right foods. I packed extra "keep him busy" snacks. Ugh! I forgot his bib. OK, so his shirt gets messy. Ugh! I forgot his spoon. Fine, I'll use the restaurant one (barf). I happens all the time! Wouldn't it be great to have an easy-to-remember system? That's why I would love to win this:

Little Chickie Wear Giveaway

First of all, the designs are unique and there seems to be enough variety to please anyone. Second of all, the clothing is cotton. Third of all, the cotton clothing is organic! Fourth of all, they have one of the cutest shirts I have ever seen; I must own it for my little boy! That's why I would love to win this:

Bath Luvé Giveaway

My son is a winter baby. He was born in December and I remember bathtimes were less than desireable times. It always seemed like the air was colder than it should have been and I constantly worried that my winter baby would get sick! So for subsequenet children (God willing), I would love to win this:

Sweet Pea Baby Designs Giveaway

I actually really love personalized things. I think it stems from being blessed with a beautiful name (Kristin) that is spelled in a fairly unqiue way (well, not the "mainstreamed" way, anyway). It was always hard to find things personalized with my name (spelled correctly) on it. I'm afraid that both my son and my nieces may experience the same trouble with their own beautiful, unique names! That's part of the reason my sister and I started a business of our own. Anyway, that is why I would love to win this:

Huggies and Juicy Juice Giveaway

Summers around here come fairly quickly (and fiercely). I miss traditional fall and spring; down here, it's either really cold or really hot. And for a family that likes to spend time outdoors, that can be a problem! But we do what we can to stay warm in the winter, and cool in the summer. That's why I would love to win this:

Tuga Sunwear Giveaway

My son basically wears a wetsuit when I dress him for the beach or pool over the summer. Oh, and I put a hat on him. And sunscreen! I get made fun of, but I am smarter than the rest! My son gets plenty of sunshine in other ways. If I can protect him from the sun (and the water+sun effect), I will! That's why I would love to win this giveaway:

Kids Can Press Giveaway (another one!!)

I LOVE collages! Collages force you to think about something, in context, but out of the box. You have to be able to open your mind and get really creative to end up with a collage that has any depth. This is true no matter what age you are! I want to encourage my son to stretch those artistic muscles! That's why I would love to win this:

Manhattan Toys Giveaway

My child has quite a few toys. He is lucky to inherit them from his older cousins and friends, and we, of course, pass them along to others who don't mind saving money/environment by accepting hand-me-downs! But every once in a while, I will see something that I think he will learn from, or that I know he will love, and I will buy it for him. That's why I would love to win this:

Ouchies Giveaway

I don't think I ever had these fancy-pants bandages growing up! They were expensive and unnecessary. I guess my siblings and I were raised to be fairly practical. My husband was definitely slightly more indulged. I know he would LOVE these bandages, and he will be 36 next week! And I am sure my little boy would like them too, so I cave and would love to win this:

Recaro ~ Vivo Giveaway

My son is growing before my eyes. Pretty soon, he'll be too big for a carseat! I can barely believe it. But I want to be prepared for the next step. I know a lot of people who make child-related purchases based on how the items look (or how the items make the moms look... sigh). Me? I'm a safety girl. My choices are ALWAYS about safety. I am just now reading/learning about this brand of carseat but I DO like what I see so far. That's why I would love to win this:

SpiceStack Giveaway

Have you seen my kitchen? That's all I have to say. It's awful. The size of the kitchen itself is acceptable, but the countertops? The cabinets? A-W-F-U-L. It's a struggle to find ANY room to put anything, no matter how small. That's why I would love to win this:

The Body Shop - Mom Gift Package

I always wonder about the kind of Mom I am. Today, I think I am the world's worst. Seriously. But then there are days that I think I am knocking it out of the part. I certainly don't think that any person, much less a site, can tell me what kind of Mom I am, but it IS interesting to hear their take on it!! I found out that my OWN Mom is a "Wise Mom" (which I agree with) by taking a simple quiz:

Parenting by Nature Giveaway

I still use disposable diapers! Yikes. Not very environmentally friendly of me. But cloth diapers seem a bit daunting to me.

Cheerios Spoonfuls of Stories

When I was in college, I "authored" two huge "big books" to read to the students in my Kindergarten class.

I was so touched, but followed the path of a teacher instead! Either way, my heart is in this:

877myjuicer.com Giveaway

We just recently built our own raised-bed garden! And my little starter seedlings are growing nicely. This weekend, we'll put the rest of the garden together and transfer the seedlings into the garden itself. I am so excited to have fresh, home-grown fruits, veggies, and herbs! It's all part of our "eat more healthfully" pact. That's why I would love to win this:

Purely Products Giveaway

I carry Clorox Anywhere, Lysol Spray, several bottles of Purell, antibacterial wipes, and more everywhere I go! I know being too germophobic (is that a word?) can be a bad thing, and I definitely try to curb that. But there are places and scenarios where I unapologetically (is that a word?) sanitize as much as I can to protect my son! That's why I would love to win this:

Earth Day Giveaway: PlasmaCar

I have seen these PlasmaCars before; some people I know bought them for their children! I have seen the kids riding them too-- they seem to be having a great time. I am desperate for one of these for my little guy! That's why I would love to win this:

Earth Day Giveaway: Green Toys Inc.

It's a green world! We've been trying to do our part to help the environment. Have you been trying to do yours?? My son is a lucky boy because he has a lot of toys. Most of them are hand-me-downs, so we're not buying new stuff to contribute to the landfills, but we can be greener still. That's why I would love to win this:

Giveaway: Betty Crocker The Mixer Gift Basket

Much to my husband's dismay, I am not creative culinarily (yes, I made tha word up). I love finding and trying new recipes, but HE is much better in the kitchen than I am. We make a good team though, and I think we'd make great things together (we made my SON, didn't we? LOL). Therefore, I would love to win this:

Bugaboo Shoe Company Giveaway!

My little guy loves to run. It doesn't matter if we're inside or out... he runs all over the place. He's got a LOT of energy and I totally support his decision to use it! The more he uses during the day, the longer he needs to sleep to regain that energy! But if there's one thing I have learned as a runner myself is that if you're going to be running a lot, you have to invest in comfortable shoes! That's why I would love to win this:

Redfish Kids Giveaway

I love dressing my son in cute clothes! He wears them so well and it's fun to get reactions from people (I guess I like the attention). Most of the time, he wears hand-me-downs or clearance rack stuff (it's still cute!) but I love finding really "different" articles of clothing too. That's why I would love to win this:

The Artsy Pear Giveaway

I never realized how special a growth chart would be to me. It is a written record of your child's growth! I mean, literally, I knew that. But watching the numbers and dates and markers go up and up and up... it brings a tear to my eye! So why not couple a very special "time" (or range of time, really) with a special and personal growth chart. That's why I would love to win this:

Sammy G's Giveaway

I love personalized things. My sister and I have our own business because personalized goods are just... so... PERSONAL. The world today is full of generic everything! Why not make something especially for your little one! That's why I would love to win this:

Oliver's Labels Giveaway

I know that I lose things more than your average bear. It's pathetic! And I worked really hard for th emoney I made and saved for my future and my family. And my husband works hard for the money he made and still makes! I need a way to keep better track of the things we buy with our hard-earned money, and clearly being generally responsible is not enough! That's why I would love to win this:

Raindrops Giveaway

It's not realistic to expect your children to remain cooped up inside when it's raining outside. Not to mention the fact that sometimes, even on the most beautiful days, the rain takes you by surprise! Why wouldn't you want to keep your babe's head dry?? That's why I would love to win this:

Raplapla Giveaway

I feel like there are so many redundant things out there for children to play with. How many varieties of bath toys can possibly exist? How can you really improve on the play gym?! Pretty soon they'll be selling the exerFLYINGsaucer! Anyway, I think unique toys rule. That's why I would love to win this:

Savvy Tot Giveaway

The only thing cuter than children is children in cute clothes! My sister and I have a small business for this very reason (among others) and it's fun to see what others come up with. I have the cutest kid, and it would be great to see him in something from the Savvy Tot. That's why I would love to win this:

n-fini Shape Giveaway!

I don't know many people with a "perfect" body. Iknow even fewer mothers with a "perfect" body! Many of us could use a little help to feel better about ourselves. I was a bridesmaid in two weddings only months after I had my son. I was so self-conscious! I am in another wedding next May and although I have a lot of time to shape up, I would still love to win this:

Country Bob's Giveaway

My typical repertoire of marinades for grilled meats consists of Italian dressing, and... well, that's it. I am no culinary daredevil, but my taste buds could sure use a little change. So could my husband's! That's why I would love to win this:

Sock Grams Giveaway

My sister loves "cute socks." She and a friend even started their own little "cute socks club"! She tried to suck me in, but I have issues stemming from 1989 (and a wonderful cross country coach, God rest his soul) about wearing socks in any color other than white. But I'm getting there! Anyway, I think these "sock grams" are a great idea, and for my sister, I would love to win this:

What's For Dinner Gift Basket Giveaway

I love the Macaroni Grill! It's so delicious. I can't believe they now have a way for people to attempt to make their grub at home! I wonder if it will taste the same? Hmmmm, I'll let you know, if I win this:

Preserve Giveaway

This is exciting! I am learning about so many new environmentally friendly companies and products. I'm impressed that so many people are being more responsible about the world in which we live. I keep trying and trying... it's not easy to do, but it's totally worth it. That's why I would love to win this:

Lollipops and Polka Dots Giveaway

I don't have daughters, but I have nieces that I love as if they were my own! It seems as though every little sparkly/pink/lacey/girlie urge I have will be projected onto them! Lucky girls :) Anyway, that's why I would love to win this:

Myself Belts Giveaway

Wouldn't it be nice to live an existence where all the clothes you buy actually fit every part of you that they're supposed to? The waist, the length, the shoulders... unfortunately, that's not reality (well, not for "real" people!) so we have to adjust to make it work. How clothing fits children is no different! That's why I would like to win this:

Pretty Peacock Giveaway

My name is unique. Rather, it's spelled in a way different than the more popular version. My nieces have unique names as well, as does my son. I think they may all have difficulty finding personalized things in their lives! Because of that, my sister and I started our own business... and also, because of that, I would love to win this:

Savespro $20 Gift Certificate

Since I had my baby, I have become almost dependent on convenience. I can not tolerate lack of organization, or running around, or wasting time. I am a HUGE fan of one-stop-shopping! Therefore, I would love to win this:

Blooming-Babies.com Giveaway

Knowledge is POWER! You can never learn "too much" and you can never start too soon. Personally, I do not believe in formal school for children younger than five or so, but that does not mean you should ignore teachable moments. Why not have a wonderful resource handy to create a few teachable moments of your own? That's why I would love to win this:

Circle of Sentiments Giveaway

I am so proud of my son. I just beam, all the time. My sister has bought me many different pieces of blue topaz jewelry (that is his birthstone) that I wear proudly. But I would also love to wear something like this:

Hairzing Giveaway

I am forever trying to drag my hair out of the way of my face. I inevitably end up shoving it up into a messy bun (I insist that I started that fad) and it NEVER looks good! I would love a way to put my hair up so that it looks like I actually took time to make it look decent! That's why I would love to win this:

Harold Conrad - Giveaway

My husband is very artistic and creative. I got more of a left-brained blessing but am always yearning to get in touch with my artistic side. I know it's in there! Anyway, my husband is constantly hounding me that we need more art in our lives. My house is plastered with (beautiful) photographs, but it would be nice to branch out! That's why I would love to win this:
