Come see our one-of-a-kind Bed Bumpers for Big Kids. I know you’ll appreciate them! I know I did.
I LOVE my Bed Bumper for Big Kids
When I checked on my son the other night, I was soooo thankful that I had created these bumpers. After all, he is a wild sleeper. I just had to snap a picture to show everyone exactly how useful they are. My son had managed to turn himself completely sideways, jamming his head up against what would have been a hard wall.
Our Bed Bumpers for Big Kids are made of 100% cotton with a thick polyester non-allergenic fill creating the soft and safe buffer for your child.
In addition, during colder months, it actually prevents a child’s body from resting up against a cold wall. We especially appreciate that up here in New England.
We had originally created these bumpers for our own two boys just over two years ago. We had been concerned about all the tossing & turning they were doing, and all the banging and bumping we could hear during the night. At least one of them would wake up from this several times each week. I had to come up with something to help.
The Bed Bumper for Big Kids was then born. It works on any clean painted wall, best used where your child’s bedside runs along the wall. It will help them sleep safely through the night, comfy and cozy.
If you are still confused about how they work, check out this video on how to actually mount the bumper on your child’s wall.
Don’t forget to pass this on and enter as many times as you like.
Sleep well!

2009 New Year Giveaway #11
We’re up to our 11th and FINAL giveaway!
But first…
Congratulations to the winner of our most recent After Holiday Giveaway!
Thank you for all the great replies to our last contest question about your special Valentine celebrations. Our 10th Giveaway Winner is Jean D. who will be receiving A $15 Gift Certificate to Chicks & Cubs, compliments of Cynthia from www.chicksandcubs.com. 
Ok, now to the next and FINAL giveaway…This Box-Set of 5 CD’s titled “Tired of Nagging? Get Your Kids to Cooperate.“ Compliments of Susan P. Epstein, LCSW, Parent Life Coach. Check out her other products at parentingpowers.com. This is more than a $400 Value! You cannot miss out on this one!
My thought of the day: As you may or may not know from previous posts, I have two boys…a 4-year old and a 5-year old. They are polar opposites in most ways. One is high-maintenance, one is laid back. One is artistic, one is more about wrestling and rough-housing. One loves competitive sports, the other hates playing against people because he will risk losing. We’ve had a lot of challenges over the past 5+ years, and I know we have many many more to come. There are a couple phases that have been extremely difficult for us, causing us to actually research the answers to our questions. One was that our first born had tons of sleep issues…always crying, never falling asleep unless he was being held and rocked (although, in hindsight, I’m certain we created this issue). The second biggest issue we’ve had so far is the tantrums. If there is a Guinness Book record for longest and loudest temper tantrum, I am certain that my 5-year old would have won!
This leads to my next question…
Whether you have kids or not, I would love to hear what your issues or questions have been? If you have kids, what were your biggest challenges? If you don’t have kids, but spend time with some one else’s kids, you must have things you’d like to vent about. Just post it here.
If you have a Twitter account, and you want additional entries, just re-tweet and comment here about it.

My thought of the day: Valentines Day has always been a bit controversial to some. I know that it can be tough for some single people, although when I was single, there was always some one to surprise with a small gesture of love, such as for a niece, nephew, or close friend. I understand that it has turned into another excuse for retailers to tug on our “love-stings”, but I also enjoy it very much myself, especially now that I have kids. I love to think of something simple and inexpensive, but thoughtful and sweet to give to the ones that I love. For my Husband, it could be as simple as getting a babysitter and going out to dinner for a couple hours. I vividly remember when I was a child, my Mom ALWAYS got me a giant chocolate Kiss every singe year. BOY, did I love that! It’s a tradition I’d love to continue with my children. For those that are single out there…what’s wrong with buying yourself something special…you deserve it!
This leads to my next question…
What, if anything, do you do on Valentines day for yourself or the ones that you love?

But first…
Congratulations to the winner of our most recent After Holiday Giveaway!

Our 8th Giveaway Winner is “The Mom Jen” who relaxes by slipping under the covers with a magazine and some chocolate. mmmmmm, chocolate. Jen will be receiving Crystal Wine Charms, compliments of Juli from www.moonstarj3.etsy.com and www.moonstarj3.blogspot.com
Ok, now to the next giveaway…
Our next giveaway is for: A Gift Certificate for a FREE Personalized Birthday CD, compliments of Victoria from www.kidspersonalizedmusic.net. ($25 Value).
What a cool gift for a child. Kids love to hear or read their names in books and CDs. What a great idea and a great thing to try to win for any child’s upcoming birthday.
My thought of the day: The recent election has been a whirlwind. So many emotions from so many people. Some are negative and some are positive, but thankfully I have heard mostly positive. This is the first election where I was thrilled with the presidential selection. I actually watched some of Inauguration day for the first time ever. I remember thinking how exhausted Michele and Obama must be after that very long day of ceremonies and balls. For some reason I just feel so differently with this president. He seems more human to me. I have high hopes for Obama and look forward to see how he fixes the mess our country is in.
This leads to my next question…
Did you feel any strong emotions (either negative or positive) on election day or on Inauguration day? I would love to hear about it.

Our next giveaway is for: Crystal Wine Charms, compliments of Juli from www.moonstarj3.etsy.com and www.moonstarj3.blogspot.com
I don’t know about you, but I love to have the occasional glass of wine, mostly due to its health benefits, of course. Make sure to enter this one!
My thought of the day: There are lots of things that I love to do…some more than others of course. I try to do something that I love each and every day. We all need some “release”, or some way to forget about our troubles. My methods of relaxing are probably simpler than others, but none the less, they relax me and that is all that matters! I like to play a game called Bubble Shooter at a site called Twitter Break…I’m an addict. I like to play games with my boys. I like to watch very funny movies with my Husband. And, I like to have a glass of red wine once in a while.
This leads to my next question…
What is it that you like to do to relax at the end of a stressful day / week?

Ok, now to the next giveaway…
Our next giveaway is for: A Toddler Spa Towel Wrap, compliments of Vanessa from www.michaelgrace.etsy.com.
My thought of the day: I’ve probably had more that just a few embarrassing moments in my life, but one more recent one comes to mind. It was so embarrassing that a national magazine thought so too, and they published it in the January issue of First (for Women) Magazine. If you’re at the grocery store or your local pharmacy, pick up a copy for a chuckle.
I will sum up the story by saying this: Don’t ever pack a water/gel bra away for too long because the fabric surrounding the water/gel becomes VERY weak resulting in a potential leak. Quite embarrassing at a formal party. That is all I will say!
This leads to my next question…
What is one of your most embarrassing moments? We all need a laugh now and then…help us out here.

Our next giveaway is for: Travel Wipe Case and matching Burp Cloth, compliments of Shawna from www.ballerinasandbuckaroos.com.
My thought of the day: I used to have a New Year’s Resolution every year. And, every year, I always lost track of it. I became disappointed in myself for not sticking it out. It would (maybe) last for a few weeks or a few months, but ultimately it would get lost in the shuffle and before I knew it, I was back to old habits again and wondering where I went wrong.
This year I have decided to ease up on myself. I now label my “resolution” as something different…or rather, I don’t label it at all. In other words, I just make a decision to give some things a try and if they don’t work out, they don’t work out. NO pressure.
This year, as with most years, I aim to be a better person, a better friend, a better wife, a better Mom. In addition, as I reach the so called “hill” in my life, I aim to become more healthy by eating more frequently and smaller portions. I am going to attempt to add MUFAs to each small meal…I’m learning that MUFAs, or monounsaturated fatty acids, such as nuts, olives, dark chocolate and olive oils, can greatly improve your overall health as well as assist in weight loss. I have a couple other small hopes for the New Year, but I don’t want to bore you.
This leads to my next question…
Do you do a New Year’s Resolution? If so, will you divulge it to the world in this post?
