Last night was the Twitter Party with Sweet Pea Diapers hosted by Eco Chic Parties. I thought the party went pretty good, lots of information and questions. The Giveaways were awesome and I even won a One Size Cloth Diaper with 2 microfiber inserts. Which is GREAT! I am looking forward to trying it out and determining if I'd like to purchase more. I believe they are running a 10% on the Sweet Pea Covers and One Size Diapers thru Cyber-Monday, so get them fast while the sale lasts!

I really want to add to my stash when Baby #2 gets here and being able to try different diapers before settling on a specific brand is SO nice. I am fortunate this time around that I have been able to try several different brands like FuzziBunz, Haute Pockets, Thirsties, Nubunz, and bumGenius. Although I LOVE them all, I tend to lean more towards my bumGenius cloth diapers. I really like the way they fit my first daughter and the insert seems to hold SO much more urine than the other inserts. I also am a fan of having the pocket opening in the front as opposed to the back I have 2 of the bumGenius 3.0 Cloth Diapers in my stash and I'm curious to try and possibly buy the new bumGenius 4.0 Cloth Diapers because I like mine so much. Many of the retailers for bumGenius have a buy 5 get 1 free sale. If your interested check out Kelly's Closet for this cool deal!

Back to my crayon crisis... I thought the Crayola Large crayons were going to work out, however last night while I was participating in the Twitter Party my baby girl broke one, I believe it was blue. So, problem not solved. The saga continues...

Well, today is an icky day...cold and rainy, but not a consistent rain but annoying off and on sprinkles. All I wanted to do this morning was sleep in... but that didn't happen, the baby was up at 6:30AM. I put her to bed late last night in hopes that she would sleep in but no such luck. It's funny how you never really think about the fact that when you have babies that your days of sleeping in will come to an end. Some days I long for the times when I was young myself and on Saturday I could be lazy and sleep in past my alarm clock setting... Oh those were the days. The only thing that makes "having" to get up early is the excitement, joy, happiness that shines on my daughter's face when I go into her bedroom to get her in the mornings. She is always SO happy to see me, EVERY day, I love it! And it make not being able to sleep in seem like a privilege.

Anyhow....On a totally random subject... I was messing around on the internet and posting things on Twitter about looking for crayons yesterday when I was sent this link http://tinyurl.com/2cr4qgm from @iColor3D . Naturally, I was curious as to how you color in 3D so I visited their website and facebook page. I'm thoroughly amused by the idea of coloring in 3D, I guess that is the big kid in me coming out! I love coloring, especially with my daughter. I just recently introduced the world of crayons and coloring books to her, which she immediately picked up on and has come to LOVE, hence my search for perfect crayons for her. Well, I'm crossing my fingers that iColor3D will decide to send me a product to review... we'll see!  I REALLY want to get the product reviews and giveaways started and hoping THIS will be my leg in! Even if they don't I felt the urge to share this product because A) They sound COOL and B) They were nice enough to answer my Tweet about Crayons and 3) It will help promote a really unique product for kids, which is AWESOME!

Thanks for listening dear followers! And if you have time check out iColor3D!

Well, yet another small scare for us....

Everything has been going fine all week, I took it easy, nothing happened, everything was great. So, we decided to go grocery shopping yesterday and get some stuff before the last minute Thanksgiving flock invaded. I hadn't been doing much walking all week, so walking around the store was a little uncomfortable but nothing too bad that I wasn't able to ignore. Well, when we got home, after we put the groceries away and settled down I noticed I was having some "cramps". Well, then I noticed these "cramps" were pretty consistent and close together... about 3-6 minutes apart. My dear sweet hubby started to get nervous and wanted me to call the doctor's office. So, I called, and my orders were to drink a bunch of water and lay down, if they didn't stop after 30 minutes I was to go into the hospital. Well, I did what they said, but waited a little longer than 30 minutes and they stopped. I was fine the rest of the night and felt pretty good this morning. I just don't understand why this baby is in such a big hurry to get here, she still has about 3 months to go, I'm only 27 weeks (today) along. Needless to say I probably won't be going grocery shopping again until after the baby is born. Just another thing my dear sweet hubby has to take on while we wait for this baby to finish "baking". Well, stay tuned, I'm hoping nothing more will happen, but this baby has a mind of her own already.

On another note, I'm looking for some FAT crayons for my daughter to try out? Anyone know where I can find some? I tried to let her color but the regular size crayons break to easy when she scribbles, she is only 16 months, so she doesn't have fine motor skills. I bought her some Crayola Large Crayons yesterday while we are out and we are trying them out today, but they still seem a little too thin, when I say FAT, I mean I want FAT Crayons!


I would LOVE to do a Review and Giveaway for some FAT Crayons! Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for listening dear followers!
