Mrs.V & Me... Monster Love...
Dare I be as cheesy as saying - I could FEEL the love packed into this box?
Yes, super cheesy, but true...
The other day we got an amazing Package from MrsVandMe
(www.MrsVandMe.etsy.com)
I opened the box and my 2 year old came running over, scrunched down... and said...
AWEEEEEEE MAMAMAAAAAAA.... in his adorable whiny toddler voice...
(He must have heard me open the Michelle Chang package :)
So instantly he snatched up the blue and orange one...
blue and orange what you ask?
Only the most amazing stuffed monsters Ive ever seen, named Trip and Grip.

Trip is approximately 13 inches wide and 22" tall from the top of his pointy head to the tip of his three-legged toes.
And Grip measures 25.5" from head to toe and 10" from side to side (not including his arms)
They are so big and squishy and absolutely amazing... and machine washable!
She sells the pair for $52.95 or a single one for $30.95.
The are worth even so much more. To find something similar... check out UglyDolls...
They have a similar design idea... same price... about HALF the size...
are mass produced... are made with ZERO love... and absolutely no originality...
So rather than being disappointed... be completely blown away like I was...
These photos do not do trip & Grip justice You really just have to love on them to understand just how awesome they are... and their so friendly and well behaved too!
Look at him here...
Sitting with the boys watching tv before bed...

and here...

Waiting patiently for his kiss goodnight... what a good monster :)
Dont you wish you could have one?
Well, this is a giveaway blog... soooooooooooooooooo YOU CAN!

This week we have some AMAZING silver skull jewelry from Michelle Chang.
I have been watching her shop for months and it just keeps getting cuter and cuter...
One day, while doing my daily etsy stalking... errr... i mean, shopping spree...
I came across this ADORABLE baby skull necklace...

Its sterling silver... hand made... and a teeny tiny little skull.
I dont know HOW she does it...
I would never have the patience... but its absolutely perfect... i fell in love :)
I KNEW I had to get her to do a review, cuz you guys would love it too...
And her prices? TOTALLY more than reasonable... just $30 for the necklace.
Can't go wrong there! TOTALLY beyond worth it...
When she agreed to do a review I was absolutely thrilled...
and when I got the packages in the mail, i melted.
I kid you not... I opened the cute little box... with the cute little sticker...
and with a big cheezy smile... let out a big... AAAWWWWEEEEEEEEEE....
as I said, it was perfect!
And what else do you ask??
Her TWO baby skulls Bangle...
A thin silver band with two baby skulls that meet in the middle...
Valued in her shop @ $38... but worth OH So much more than that...


It was pure bliss for about 30 seconds...
then I remembered... we have to share :(
Yes yes... its true... ONE IS FOR YOU!
The Bangle is for one of our LUCKY LUCKY LUCKY ladies... that comments :)
So sweet... so delicate... yet perfect for the punk rock chick...
Perfect for every day wear.... or dress it up with that sexy little black dress.

BUUUZZZZZz Who wants a happy baby? I DO I DO!!
Saying that today was a rough day...
would be an understatement...
Crabby, fussy babies... allllll day...
napped terrible... hardly ate...
and to top it all off.
Our saving grace of getting them out of the house couldnt happen.
It was cold and rainy all day. :(
Sad mama...
And just as my head was about to start spinning in circles...
EUREKA!
I remembered I had to do tonights review and we could FINALLY
use our new toy from HappyBabeeandBeeyond...
see here: www.HappyBabeeandBeeyond.etsy.com
Ive been dying to get one of these...
and I was gunna buy them for christmas, and put it off...
bought some chunky toddler crayons instead...
(which turned out to be more of a snack and a fight with my 1 year old... haha)
I shoulda just bought these.

The boys LOVED it...
I dunno what magical powers she sews into the seams.
(the perfectly straight seams i might add)
But somehow it is WAY cooler than just a pack of crayons...
I pulled it out, and the boys were silent...
colored... had fun... and mommy could breathe...
Happy Baby... yeah - she chose the perfect name.
They open up to be the perfect little crayon holster...
and roll up tight to toss in a bag... a drawer... where ever...
and keep all your crayons nice and tidy.

Mess free, clutter free, drama free... just the way I like it...
And once again. Made with one of my favorite prints... Goth Baby Skulls.
So cute... and totally unisex.
Check it out... They loved it..
I couldnt choose a favorite photo...
so I chose them all :)
My little lefty - coloring mama a picture...

and hiding from a picture..... haha

and so happy to have a new toy... that he is even hugging his little brother...

**sibling loving & hugging results not guaranteed, hahaha**
So, scoot over to her shop...
www.HappyBabeeandBeeyond.etsy.com
and scroll through all the pages...
cuz she has a TON of rockin stuff...
LOTS of different punky prints...
And tell us your favorites...
to be entered to win another of the same crayon roll up shown...
2 ways to get extra entries!!
*Buy anything from her and leave us an extra comment telling which awesome bunch of things you bought...
(Her stuff is SOOOO affordable, I really hope to hear about some purchases this week!!!)
*Blog, bulletin, twitter, facebook, whatever you can think of... about this review and post the link here for an extra entry!
