Holiday Cards

I am such a planner.  I need to have my Christmas cards done.  Before Thanksgiving.

At first, I just thought it was because I was expecting (both years!) and I was in that nesting phase......but, guess what?  It is not just when I am pregnant. 

I have this want need to complete my Christmas cards before everyone else.  I like knowing that I am one of the first cards people receive.  What a great way to kick off the holiday season!  :)

Anyway, so in my quest to be one of the first to send out their Christmas cards, I had several decisions to make.  Design?  Colors?  But, there was one decision that was simple.  I knew I wanted to use Shutterfly.

They have wonderful products, and can fulfill all of your photo needs!

So, this afternoon (when I finally got the little monsters kids down for their nap) I started creating our Christmas cards.  There design templates are so easy, anyone can use them!  Not only that, but they are ADORABLE!

I created these 2 in a matter of minutes, which one do you think I should pick?  :)

Do you have to order Christmas cards?  If you do, click here, and check out Shutterfly.   And even if you don't, they have a variety of other items that you will love, such as:  address labels, birthday invitations, and gift tags.  You seriously can't go wrong with Shutterfly!

Merry Christmas all, and Happy Holidays!

Discovery Toys Giveaway!

Have you emerged from your sugary Halloween coma yet?  :)  Well, hop to it.....it is time to embrace the day.  Yes, I know....I am entirely too excited for a Monday morning.  But, I have some exciting news.....

In honor of the Jack and Ady's birthdays this month, I have set up so AWESOME giveaways!

And to kick off our celebration, we have a couple of items from Discovery Toys!

Wendy, a Independent Team Leader for DiscoveryToys, has offered up 2 items for a giveaway.  :)  (Have you checked out her ad on the right side of this web-site? -------------->)

Yes, that means TWO of you have a chance to win.  :)

Our first item is this awesome children's cd called "Fingerplays and Fun"!  It includes all the songs you remember from growing up, and my kids loved it.

Especially Ady, she was a little bit grumpy when I put her into her carseat one evening....but as soon as she heard the music her little head started moving.  Both my kids have rhythm, what can I say?  :)

The second item is called the gLove Story Puppet.  It is a perfect tool for teaching your children animals, and staying hands-on in their learning.  Which, of course, we all love.

What child wouldn't want to be tickled by a cow, sheep, flower, pig, or butterfly?  :)

Living in an apartment, I am always looking for toys that function in several different ways, and Discovery Toys does just that.  Your child(ren) will: learn, be entertained, and know you care because a lot of these toys are designed for parent-child play.  :)  I love it, and I hope you all will too!
