Mason is taking a nap right now and he's going to be thrilled to hear the good news when he wakes up! We won another giveaway!

For those of you who aren't knee deep in the "mommy blogging world" internet giveaways are VERY VERY popular. Basically, a company (from big brands down to home run etsy shops) gives a blogger a product to review and a product to give away. The blogger then uses the product, posts about what they thought about it and how their readers can buy one and then gives them the chance to win one. To win, readers are able to do a multitude of different things from just commenting on the post to friending them on facebook or twitter, answering a question from the manufacturer's website, tweeting about the giveaway, posting the giveaway site's logo on their own blog, etc etc. The more stuff you do, the more chances you have to win, but basically, taking two seconds to comment (usually answering a question like "What other product of theirs do you like?" "Who would this be for?" or "What pattern do you prefer?") gets you a chance to win awesome stuff. Then, a comment is randomly picked at the end of the giveaway time period and someone gets their own chance to try out a great product!

Today, in the mail we received the Fresh Baby Baby Food Kit from a giveaway at Extreme Personal Measures

I can't wait to try this out and imagine we'll be using this a lot once Mason starts trying solids (which is about a month away)! I'd actually had something like this on our registry, so I'm excited to have won! Thanks so much, DW!!

A few weeks ago, we won a set of six of the Little Green Books from Dustin Nikki Mommy of Three. I've seen these at the bookstore and they are GREAT books!

Since I want Mason to care about the earth and animals AND to have a love of books, I was super excited to win 6 books to add to his shamefully small library! Thank you in advance for these great books!

Our biggest win yet was a Baby K'Tan from The Southern Belle Baby

I'm a huge fan of baby wearing and from what I read, is like a superior version of the Moby Wrap - no 15 feet of material and complicated wrapping! We got our K'tan and it was PINK and P said no way was his little man riding around in a pink carrier (men!) so Baby K'Tan is graciously exchanging it for a blue one, even though they gave it to us for free! Talk about WONDERFUL customer service! I'll definitely be posting some pictures and a review of how we like it once we get the new one! Thanks so much Jessica (and Amanda from Baby K'tan!)

Now today, I checked my e-mail and found we won an O and El backpack from Chasing Twins in Louboutins

Since we're about 4 years off from Little Man needing a backpack, I have a feeling that this is going to make a GREAT present for one of his favorite aunties whose birthday is coming up. Hopefully she's slacking and not reading this! Thanks in advance, Amanda!!

So, that's the loot we've won in the last month. All from posting comments on other blogs. How awesome is THAT?!!?  Thank you SO much to the lovely ladies who put the hard work and dedication into running these giveaways. They are so much fun!
