So in honor of that... she started making shopping cart covers for us!! Rad right? She made one for me and i use it EVERY SINGLE TIME I go to the store... helps to keep little man clean and germy free.... which is always a good thing... And Brooke got one when her husband said if I didn't send her one it would be my fault when Gory got swine flu, lol

(I think thats his poopin face, lol)
But yeah! So take a peek at all the new ones in the shop and let me know what you think! As always we are keeping out prices low... and our quality high! For now we are not doing custom orders on them but if they seem to sell well it could be in the future! *you can click on ANY of the photos to ZOOM it up*

New Giveaway! 2 ties from RokGear! You pick...
GIVEAWAY FROM ROKGEAR!
Looking back at my wedding, there is NO DOUBT that RokGear was the biggest thing to "tie" it all together... (get it... lame pun, sorry, lol) I really went out of my way to blend both the classy and pretty w/ the punk rock.. And from what everyone has said... I did a great job. But one HUGE aspect what the guys' ties... Skull & Damask print on red ties (zaq's was on white). They were PERFECTION!
See?!?


Weren't we a sexy group!?



Both my guys & girls in black... with each just a pop of red... they looked phenomenal.
Classic... simple... and sexy... LOVE IT!
Alright, alright... thats enough blabbing and picture sharing... Everyone knows how much I love RokGear :) Now let me tell you about all the reasons why...
#1: They have been printing ties since 1995, OMG! Now thats dedication & Experience...
They started etsy just over a year ago and are totally "Rok'n" it...
#2: No clip art... You not gunna find the graphic to these ties floating on Photobucket...
"You will not find our neckties or designs on any department store shelf, we do not wholesale if you purchase a Rokgear design, necktie, t-shirt a print in general, It is directly from our Burbank Studio.
Not that we don't get hundreds of offers from vendors wanting our items, at RokGear customer service is all about the "Customer" and we can't rely on a third party vendor to take care of our customers." #3: THEY'RE ECO FRIENDLY!! "Water based ink screenprinting contains neither PVC nor phthalates making them an environmentally friendly choice. Water based ink ingredients are non-toxic, lead-free and do not contain any heavy metals. As such, they are safe for use on infant clothing, underwear and swimsuits."
#4: Options... sooo many options... Pick your color... pick your size (length and width... ... ... ... ;) ... pick your print... the combinations just go on and on and on... theres something for everyone...
#5: even more combinations... You can choose from Silk tie or Microfiber. We chose microfiber for the wedding. Its super easy to clean... the colors are just as great... still had a beautiful shine... and they're cheaper! For us it was a GREAT investment...
#6: The right size for everyone... On average an 8" tie may fit a boy up to about 2 or 3 years old, an 11" tie up to about 5 or 6 and a 14" up to about 10 or 11. For adults... A standard necktie is 3.75" wide at it's widest point and 57" long.
#7: They love RockerByeBaby, too.... ;) http://www.rokgear.com/Featured-Etsy-Shop.php
...
I could go on and on about all the amazing things coming out of RokGear... but you just have to see for yourself... And yes of course... one of you will get the chance to win... not one, but TWO MICROFIBER TIES... of your choice... You can choose one of two things... Either a matching father/son set... (1 adult tie & 1 kids tie... ) or two kids ties... You choose the size... color... and print... Pick your color from this amazing list... And shop till you drop on the website and etsy shop to see ALLLLLL the amazing print options ;)

Shayna Punam HUGE baby bath product giveaway DONT MISS THIS ONE!
When it comes to Shayna Punam...
I dont even know where to begin.
She is THE MOST under rated Etsy shop I have ever come across.
Her stuff is amazing... yet only 6 sales and 42 hearts :(
Well this week, we need to change that for her.
Before we get to the giveaway goodies, let me tell you a bit about her shop...
First off, she makes wonderful all natural body products for mommy & baby.
and Secondly, Shayna Punam stands for beautiful Face in Yiddish... awe...
well, a beautiful face is not all you will have with her stuff...
I wanna share with you the story of my son's beautiful Butt... yeah, thats right... BUTT!
The day my goodie bag showed up in the mail, my son had a HORRIBLE diaper rash...
the worst he has every had...
he was so red and raw just out of no where.
I didn't know what to do as the over the counter stuff like Balmex never worked for him...
and we didn't have any luck with Bordeaus Butt Paste either...
Well, Shayna Punam was the saving grace.
I pulled out the Butt Buster Bath Soaker and gave him a good soak.

You just drop it in and run the warm water.
The bath smelled wonderful...
full of all natural Oatmeal, calendula, chamomile and lemon balm...
After that I sat the bag out on the counter to dry (one pouch is good for 6 baths!!)
I dried him off and got him ready for bed...
but before I put on his diaper I gave him a good coating of the Butt Buster Balm.
By morning... it was half as red and irritated...
I continued to put the Balm on after every diaper change...
and repeated the soak and balm process over night...
and by the next morning it was gone.
I was absolutely blow away & i immediately wrote to her explaining our success w/ her products.
Part of me wishes the boys had a cold...
because Im sure the Cold & Cough soak works just as well...
No cold? Try out the Night Night Wash & the Night Night balm paired together...

Just wash up baby with the gentle lavender wash...
The take the balm, and just Rub gently on their Chest & Back...
and even under their nose if you want.
Feeling restless yourself? This is great for mommies as well.
Lavender is a natural stress reliever.
I could literally talk forever about all the amazing products that she has...
but you wont really know until you try them out yourself.
But I assure you... each item is worth the investment.
After all, its all natural ingredients for you and baby...
there's nothing more important than that...
Right now, you must be thinking, wow! It can't get an better than that!
Well, it can... ;)
She has a sister shop, ANNABELLA KNITS, that makes soakers, longies, skirties and more...
that she makes out of 100% hand dyed wool.
Guess what... she has sent us one of those too!
Now, I couldn't choose which one to review and which one to giveaway so Im letting the winner pick.
They are both around a size Large - that way most every mommy has a chance to win...
So - to the details...
The prize is valued @ almost $100
The soakers:

and the Travel Kit:

The winner will receive one of everything in the Travel Kit...
and ONE of the soakers...
How to win:
