Baby Shower Celebration: Sponsor Spotlight: Bamboobies

Bamboobies Washable Nursing Pads

Let me introduce you to another great product for nursing mothers. Bamboobies Washable Nursing Pads are a unique product invented by a nursing mother who was looking for something not only comfortable and stylish, but earth friendly as well.  Enter, Bamboobies, the ultra-soft, ultra-thin, heart shaped washable nursing pads made from bamboo and organic cotton. 

"Regular Bamboobies® have a milk-proof™ outer layer and an ultra-soft organic cotton + bamboo velour

inside layer. They are heart-shaped, which enables the pad to cup the breast without creating visible wrinkles.

Regular Bamboobies® are designed to absorb the maximum amount of milk without being thick & visible

through clothing."

Not only do they offer these awesome nursing pads, but they also have overnight nursing pads, which are thicker and larger:

The Bamboobies Cute Little Nursing Cover

and Bamboo-ease Therapy Pillows.

Muffin Tin Monday: Make Your Own Pizza part 2

I decided we were FINALLY going to do our second week of our pizza lessons. I planned to have it be a two week unit waaayyyy back at the beginning of February, but then I had no energy or motivation.  I guess it works out, seeing as the children might not have appreciated 5 more days of pizza meals right away, but now they are looking forward to it. So, we started with our make your own pizza muffin tin. It was about the same as the first one. I just put the toppings in the muffin cups and let them decide how they were going to top their own pizzas.

They had 

Half an English Muffin

Pizza sauce

Shredded mozzarella cheese

Ham and pepperoni

Chopped tomato

Broccoli and green pepper

Muchroom

They started with the sauce:

Daddy helped Hannah this time.

Added some cheese:

And then added some toppings. Then I baked them in the oven for 10 minutes on 375.

And I gave them Dessert Muffin Pizzas again. 

If you would like the full instructions just head on over to last month's post.

Scavenger Hunt Sunday: February 26, 2012

It is time for another Scavenger Hunt Sunday. I missed last week because I was in the hospital "relaxing" after having our little boy. Of course, this week's Scavenger Hunt is going to revolve around our little guy. So, if you haven't met little Harold Edward III yet, may I now introduce you in Scavenger Hunt style.
Scavenger Hunt Sunday items: Crossed, A Glimpse, Handwritten, Bliss and Gray
Crossed

I received these flowers from our church family. Love the pattern on the ribbon, felt it fit this prompt very well.

A Glimpse

Here is a little glimpse of the gift basket my Ladies' Bible Study Care Group put together for me. We have yet to dig in and see what all the goodies are. 

 Handwritten

A page out of Harold's baby book, which I will hopefully be doing a lot of writing in.

Bliss

supreme happiness; utter joy or contentment

Our little guy at 5 days old.

And with daddy on the day he was born. 

Gray

This car seat has been used for two of the girls and now will be used for our little guy. Guess it would work for Gray and Crossed.

Here is another one for gray. I was wearing a gray shirt today and thought I would take a couple of shots when Harold was sleeping on my chest.

Giveaway Opportunity at The Parenting Patch: 2 Diaper Cakes

I was visiting the blogs that have posted about my Baby Shower Giveaway and I found a great giveaway for 2 Diaper Cakes with newborn diapers (they can actually be stacked to make one big cake too). I know these would be so cute for bringing to a baby shower, though I would probably be keeping these for myself having a newborn in the house. If you are planning on attending a baby shower or expecting a baby of your own stop on over to The Parenting Patch to enter this great giveaway.

Lovin' The Weekend Blog Hops Week 21- Feb 24- Feb26

Welcome to the twenty first weekend of Lovin' the Weekend Blog Hops.

Giveaway Linky is the bottom linky!

Here's how this blog hop works. I would appreciate it if you would follow me via GFC. And then, there are three different linkys you can link to. Whichever one you choose to link to, please grab that button and share it on your blog (the codes are on my sidebar). I'd love it if you could tweet or in some other way share about this blog hop, the more people who know about it, the more potential visitors and new followers of your blog. I'd love to meet some new friends this weekend.  

I have noticed that some people are more interested in just increasing their numbers, while others really want people who appreciate their blog and want to keep up with their posts. So, I decided to create two separate linkys. The third linky is for you to link up your giveaways.

If you are interested in increasing the number of followers to your blog via GFC, Twitter, Facebook or Google+ link up here. If you have the new Linky Followers Tool feel free to put that in the link, I will follow you back if you follow me (just note which one you are linking to):

If you are interested in gaining followers to your blog who will read and comment and truly find an interest in your blog, link up here:

If you have family friendly giveaways to link up, here's your spot. Please make sure to include an end date for your giveaway.

I am so glad you stopped by. Please leave a comment if you link up and I will be sure to stop by and follow back.

Don't forget to check out my "Blog Hops" page for other great weekend blog hops!!
