Free Booties for our Special Arrival


So I have some very special news to share with you my blogging buddies. I am going to be an aunt... AGAIN! My baby sister is pregnant. Not only is she pregnant, but she is pregnant with TWINS. Our family is over the moon excited. I am constantly looking at baby stuff, but I am pretty sure by now my Mom has a closet full of baby stuff.

Last night I entered a blog contest for some of the best baby booties EVER. They are Isa Booties. If you are expecting or have a friend who is expecting, these would make an amazing gift.

Isa Booties has generously decided to giveaway a year’s supply of these stylish booties to help with the launch of the blog Green & Clean Mom!!! How awesome is that? One lucky winner can choose four pairs, their choice of style and size. A year supply of Isa Booties and a prize valued at over $100!!!

SQUEEAAAAALLL! We're gonna have twins at Christmas! We're gonna have twins at Christmas! We're gonna have twins at Christmas!

Sheri, You Should Have Written This Book!!


I hope my friend Sheri is reading this posting. She should have written this book. When my boys were little it was a source of constant humor that I so clueless about nursery rhymes. She was a teacher and former preschool director and could sing anything. Me.... I could sing the ABC song if I had a good night's sleep.

I saw this book in Barnes & Noble and thought, "That is the perfect baby gift." Considering we are about to have a baby boom in our life, I will be picking up several of these books.
Book: Humpty Who? - A Crash Course in 80 Nursery Rhymes for Clueless Moms and Dads
Description: What-to-read as well as a how-to-read, this collection of 80 rhymes, songs, and finger play features all the timeless characters and their stories—Jack and Jill, Georgie Porgie, Little Bo Peep, Contrary Mary. But it's more than just Mother Goose. There are lullabies, rounds, and riddles. How to recite "The Itsy-Bitsy Spider," and make the hand-motions that have held children spellbound for generations. How to act out "I'm a Little Teapot". Plus, there are explanations for curious kids (and adults) on things like exactly what a "tuffet" is and how to make "pease porridge"; suggestions for reciting the poetry of the greats (Shakespeare, Blake, Dickinson); tips on how to improvise; and the secret weapon of the yoga "Om." The accompanying CD is both great to play for baby, and a fun way for parents to learn the music that goes along with many of the rhymes.
Sounds perfect! Give me about five!!
