Congrats! You have 48 hours to contact me with your shipping info.

Just a quick note!

I am very busy this week. I am late pulling my winner for the Build-A-Bear contest, which i am about to do right now. Ive been shopping all week trying to finish up. I really hope I got everything because it's Christmas Eve and there's nothing open tomorrow! Plus I had my daughter's 8th birthday this passed Monday, a sleepover! Boy that was stressful, I was all by myself for the most of it. And I babysat one of the girls all day yesterday while her parents worked. SO as you see I have had no time to get on here at all!
To my passed winners that I need to send their prizes to, I will get them out this Friday! Please forgive me for being so late! I feel terrible about not getting them out in a timely fashion. I will even express them so you have them by Monday or Tuesday. :D
I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas! See you all Friday!

Christmas in Wonderland Blog Party Day 11~Review/Giveaway~Build-A-Bear!(CLOSED)

First I am very sad to see that this is my last giveaway for the season! Second, I am very excited to see that this is my favorite one! I just love Build-A-Bear! My kids had the opportinuty to go to a birthday party there for the first time back in April. They absolutely loved it! I just had to contact them to see if they would sponsor a contest for me, and I was very excited when they agreed and sent me this Hello Kitty for my kids.I mean, how adorable is that!? Just too stinkin cute! I want one for myself, LOL! And I believe every kid deserves to have at least one Build-A-Bear of their own! Heather just loves it! She carries it around everywhere and likes to play the game where she takes the shoes off and I put them back on.

I will also be scheduling a birthday party there for my kids in the future! It's really an awesome store. All hands on, and the kids just have a blast making their own stuffed animal!

Build-A-Bear is giving away a $25 gc to one lucky winner!

Christmas in Wonderland Blog Party Day 10~Review/Giveaway~Boogie Wipes!(CLOSED)

First off I would like to apologize that Im getting behind. Its been a hectic week. Kids getting sick, then myself. Then Brian had truck trouble and had to leave his truck at the shop over the weekend to get fixed so I wasn't even home most of the day yesterday with my dr appt and having to go pick him up.

So on with today's lovely giveaway!

You know you've been there. Your little one has a cold. Nose running all the time. And having to fight them to wipe their nose constantly can get exhausting. Then there's the red noses from getting wiped too much, and they become raw and hurt. Well, I had the lovely opportunity to try saline wipes from Boogie Wipes! These are a god send! They are moist with saline (saltwater) and scented (grape or fresh scent) so they smell good! No more raw noses! And the saline also helps ease the cold symptoms.

Ive tried the Puff plus lotion, they are soft. But, I don't like how it leaves an oily residue on the nose and hands. The Boogie Wipes don't do that.

From the site:

How are Boogie Wipes different than a regular baby wipe?
Made with Natural Saline
Hypoallergenic
Alcohol Free
Moisturize with Vitamin E, Aloe and Chamomile
Lightly Scented
Gentle Enough for All Ages
Phthalate & Paraben Free

Why Saline?
A study by News24.com released in January 2008 offered saltwater as a “cure” and alternative method to ease symptoms. The natural saline (saltwater) in Boogie Wipes, offers an effective, gentle way to dissolve kid’s mucus. Learn more about how saline is better than cold meds for small kids.

She obviously didn't want her nose to be wiped at that paricular moment, but it's the best I could get. lol.

Now for the giveaway.

I have two 30 count packs, one grape and one fresh scent for one lucky winner! For your initial entry you MUST contact Boogie Wipes and suggest a new scent. Come back here and tell me you've done so and tell me what scent you've suggested! Please include your email address.

For additional entries:

1. Blog about this including links back to me and to Boogie Wipes.

2. Join the Boogie Bunch at Boogie Wipes.

3. Follow my blog.

4. Tweet this and include a link.

Contest ends December 20th at 11:59pm EST! winner will be pulled using random.org on December 21st.

Getting into the Christmas Spirit!

So about a month ago we got a head start on decorating for the holidays, since Brian is gone all week and the only chance we get to do anything is on the weekends. We only got as far as hanging the lights up outside the first 2 weekends in November.

This was the first week.

The second week.

The next week was Thanksgiving and we went to Michigan so we couldn't get anything done. And we were too tired when we got home from our trip so the rest of it got done yesterday. So I hope you enjoy the pics!

We added a train that was on clearance for $40 at Walmart!!! I've always wanted one and now I do! And yes that is a Christmas Tree that you see on the left side of the pic. We posted it outside, LOL!

We still aren't done. I still need more decorations up inside and I want lights around the front door.

Christmas in Wonderland Blog Party Day 6~Review/Giveaway~Happy Panda Baby!(CLOSED)

I was very excited when Pamela from Happy Panda Baby agreed to do a review and contest for my holiday blog party!

I just think it's absolutely adorable and fits my daughter's personality to a T!

Isn't that jewel on the butt just the cutest?!

My little model.

Busy busy Busy

Hey everyone.
Sorry I havent been around lately. I have been crazy busy with reviews and listing contests, and getting ready for the Christmas season that I haven't had time to do much else. Now we went saw Santa yesterday and boy that was a riot! Heather screamed her little head off, her face almost as red as Santa's suit. We put our tree up yesterday and just layed around. I think I may have been a little hungover still from Friday. And now Jasmine is sick, pretty sure it's an ear infection, and possibly strep throat. And Im not feeling all that well either. No, it's not a hangover that's gone. I think I may have another round of bronchitis.
Be sure to check back today and thru the rest of the week for more great giveaways! Christmas in Wonderland ends next Monday!

Macy's is at it again!

First there was the Macy's Believes Campaign. Hurry and get your letters to Santa dropped off!

She even wore them in the car for 7 straight hours when we were on our way home from our Thanksgiving trip. They are that comfortable! Now only if they made them in adult sizes. lol.

And don't forget about school, where things end up going home with someone else. Problem solved with Mabel's Labels!

They also have different designs and colors.

Like the bag tags for travelling or backpacks.

And the kids safety products. Like these information wristbands for your child to wear on school field trips or at amusement parks~ your child will be that much safer!

You can label anything and be pretty much worry free!

Christmas in Wonderland Blog Party Day 1~ Review & Giveaway~ Eyes Cream Shades! (CLOSED)

I am so very excited to be kicking off my Christmas in Wonderland Blog Party! And I hope you all are too. I have tons of great gifts for you! So let's get right to it.
I first came across Eyes Cream Shades in a giveaway at MomDot. I instantly fell in love with them! They have UV protectant lenses in many different sizes, even for babies! I am all about protecting the eyes from the harmful sun, and sometimes you just can't buy any pair of sunglasses. Especially since kids break them. Eyes Cream Shades are much more durable than other pair. I definitely reccomend them to anyone with kids! They have so many different styles that are cute and fun.

My girls received the Strawberry Ice pair and love them! I have one pair here for one lucky winner!

To enter you MUST visit Eyes Cream Shades and browse their inventory. Come back here and tell me what your favorite style is (other than the pair I have). Please include your email address.
