There is no picture more beautiful than a hand sketched portrait. I have always dreamed of having each person in our family sketched. It's quite hard to find someone talented enough to capture the essence of the person in the portrait but feisty, frugal, and fabulous has found someone who really seems to be a true artist. Take a look around Portraits By Dana and see for yourself. Right now you have a chance to win a free 8x10 portrait. I don't know how I would ever be able to decide which of my children to sketch, but until I save up for a family sketch, I would really like to win a sketch of Raffi, my happy little boy in heaven.
INeverGrewUp.net is a great blog written by a former nanny now mommy of 2 with some really creative ideas on entertaining and caring for kids. It's one of the few blogs I read not only for the reviews and giveaways. Well, right now she is having a HUGE giveaway party to celebrate one year of blogging. She is giving away over $1200 worth of prizes- go check it out!!

The Dirty Shirt is giving away a LeapFrog Leapster 2 with a game. My 5 year old son learned to read from the LeapFrog Letter Factory DVD and I'm thrilled to see a game for it. Although I'm not a big fan of kids with electronic devices and addicted to handheld games, it would be nice to have something educational to distract my son when we're out. The I Spy games also look really nice.

My first follower Barefoot Mommies has some (well, really a ton) of great giveaways going on. My baby son just started cruising so any of the See Kai Run or pediped™ shoes that she is giving away would be great. And I can't forget my baby daughter who would look adorable in the Heelarious high-heeled soft shoes or personalized Darling Shoes. My five year old is afraid of the dark and wakes us up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, the SylvaniaPalPODzzz night lights look they would be quite helpful. She is also giving away a package of Classy Kid Products disposable changing table liners, disposable bibs, bags and potty protectors. Most of them are staples in my diaper bag. Check out Barefoot Mommies for all the other giveaways.

Remeber how I said I wanted to redecorate my kids rooms? Well design for baby is giving away your choice of 3 prints from Cici Art Factory


Giggle is one of my favorite baby boutiques. They are offering a giggle guide to baby gear and $50 gift certificate at MomTrends.blogspot.com.

Dreaming of redoing our apartment (maybe we should just move!)

When we finally move and can give my kids their own rooms, I have a list of decorating ideas. For my daughter's room I would like to decorate with some original ETSY prints from different artists. Wishing Willow is now giving away a beautiful Sofi and the Fish art print from Holli.etsy.com,

I happen to think that the FLOR system is the smartest around. Ever get some dirt on your carpet that you weren't able to get it out? When I was in bedrest Powerade spilled all over my white carpet. No matter how many times I cleaned it or what cleaners I used I still have this ugly black stain. We moved the beds to cover it up, but now know to buy FLOR tiles for our next apartment and I never have to worry about stained carpets again. What is the FLOR system? FLOR makes carpet tiles that you could put together in any color or pattern you like creating very original flooring. Plus, because each tile can be removed seperately, you never have to worry about bad stains, just replace that one tile! Right now you can win a FLOR seagrass rug from from Double Bugs.
