Oshi

"So this is how Oshi mat was born...

Like most baby products... 

Out of a loving mother's pure necessity!"

Someone is a genius, and of course it was a Mom! I came across these baby play mats and I was intrigued. I said to myself - That looks practical to me! Not to mention, rrrreeeaaalllyyy cute!


These mats come with a carry bag, and you can roll them out on any surface to protect from bacteria or anything else that might be living on the floor. The Oshi Mat Website has lots of uses listed that I never would have thought of --- Changing mat, Developmental Classes (baby stimulation, baby massage, music class), play spot, timeout spot, outings, travel, nap mat and more...but I guess when you're a Mom you know how to get a lot of use out of great products!



I just love that this mat provides their own little space, no matter where you go. A little consistency can go a long way, and what a cute way to do it! THis helicopter mat is sure to keep a little boy loving his space.



QUICK! We need a diaper changing station - Thank you Oshi Mat! This giraffe print is probably my favorite. The fact that it is more of a unisex design is great!


And oh the stimulation and imagination that a simple play mat can provide. I remember a little rug from my Childhood that would transform into whatever magical land I wanted it to :)

I hope I can win the Take It From Me Giveaway and pick out one of these adorable kits to send to my sister. Being an aunt is awesome! You can put in entries until December 17th - Good Luck!

W T E

I am a book lover and I just came upon a book giveaway over at Take It From Me! And these aren't just any books, but the best selling "What to Expect" books! From what I have heard they are pretty much a necessity when entering the wonderful world of Parenthood. As I am not quite to that stage yet, I do not yet own them, but a bunch of my friends do! Here is the first one, that is probably the most famous -

The other two, are "What to Expect the first year" and "What to Expect the second year"

I have been browsing their website, and have been completely enlightened to the craziness and awesomeness that being pregnant must bring! I can't even begin to imagine what it would be like to have a toddler or two running around! All the information and helpful tips provide a really great resource that I will remember and pass on to my parenting buddies.

Plus the website has lots of fun baby trackers, due date calendars, and just fun news to wrap yourself up in! Helps you get everything fit into that 9 month window, and I am sure it helps you pass the time when it is dragging on and on...



So there you have it, a new baby resource, and a chance to win three books for the ULTIMATE resource guide.

Violight Toothbrush Sanitizer

I am a practical gift giver, I admit! But I found something today that is practical AND kinda fun if you ask me. It's a toothbrush sanitizer:

I am one of those people who takes pride in my pearly whites, and so it really disturbs me to think about all the germs living on my toothbrush as I pick it up off the counter each morning. This product by Violight kills germs with UV power! Pretty cool, and pretty cute. They have a lot of fun varieties to choose from:




Or if you are too grown up for the characters, they have a more simple version that comes in a variety of solid colors. The more I think about these, the more I want to get some for everyone on my Christmas List!

TakeItFromMe is hosting a Violight Giveaway this month (ending November 23rd) where one lucky winner will receive a multiple toothbrush sanitizer:

Tiny Prints

Wowee wow - what an opportunity! I am going to be so jealous of whoever wins this giveaway... unless it is me of course :) I found it this serious score at Take It From Me and one of the lucky contestants will get 50 free holiday cards from Tiny Prints. HEAVENLY PRIZE!

These are a few of my favorites, and I am drooling at the thought of not having to pay for them :)

San Diego Bebe Nursing Pillow

Here is a post to spread the word about the SanDiego Bebe Nursing Pillow ...... and I admit that it is also my attempt at earning entries in order to win one for my sister!

You can find the giveaway at Take It From Me and more information about the product at the double blessings website.

Here is how it works in pictures:





It has some really neat aspects to it, and I think any Mom would really like the luxuries that come with it. And so, here is to hoping I can win! Giveaway ends 11/14

I have my sight set on winning a fancy new bra from EdenFantasy's! Right now, they are giving away a $50 gift card through Dang Gina . I just wanted to let you all know about this online resource for lingerie.

This shop has something for everyone. Whether it's lingerie, some new panties, or even candles. . Instead of going to Victoria Secret or another shop, you can order something new online and not worry about the uncomfortable sales reps.

So just a heads up that you should go check out the Eden Fantasy shop, and enter the giveaway at Dang Gina before August 3rd at midnight!

Photography By Neibaur

A great photography business you should check out if you live in the Southwest Idaho region. Based out of Rigby, this photographer has talent! Here is a link where you can look at some of her work and be dazzled.

Gina from Dang Gina previously won a free photo shoot with Photography by Neibaur but has decided to pass on the love by giving it away to someone else. Leave your entries at her site if you will be in the Rigby area any time soon!
