I never win blog contests. Since becoming aware of this blogging phenomena (4 years ago!!) I’ve entered to win everything from gift cards to a Silhouette SD (none of which I’ve ever won). I’ve come to accept my loser-status and even expect not to win as I feebly submit the required comment.
That is… until this man came along!
Within the two weeks surrounding his birth, not only did I win… people, I won BIG time.
First, I snagged this awesome damask stencil(valued at $50!) over at
Do you want to know the best part about winning this? I wasn’t the original winner! the actual winner never responded despite Tam’s efforts to contact her. So my comment was the next one chosen! Woohoo!! Thanks for forgetting that you entered the giveaway whoever you are!!! ;)
I’m SO giddy over this one and I can’t wait to attack my walls (once we find a place to call our own!).
Second, I won a Joovy Room (valued at 269.99)!!!
Can you believe it?!
This pack n’ play is quite possibly the Rolls-Royce (is this still a desirable car? obviously I am not into cars so I apologize if I totally missed the boat on this analogy – lol!) in pack-n-plays. It has a MP3 player, bassinet, changing table, storage, carrying case, etc… and did I mention that it is cute-to-boot?! My heart yearned for the orange one but the practical mom in me (who was SURE that her children will bite, slobber, spill, and draw on it) won out.

Thank you, thank you blog-land for the giveaways! for those of you who NEVER win giveaways… keep trying! Who knows? maybe you will be the next big winner!
and aHUGE thanks to my lucky Little-Man-Child!
{yes, this is his official nick-name. I’ve called him this since birth {much to my husband’s chagrin, lol! He thinks I should come up with something more endearing before this one sticks. Well sweetie, I completely disagree. This name is SO endearing and it’s here to stay ;)}
I'm jealous of your Rolls Royce pack-n-play!
I've call Stone Mr. Man since he was born. My dad calls him Benjamin Button. HAH. They are definitely endearing nicknames.
Cute! gotta love sweet nicknames! let's hope my little guy likes his :)
Love your Rolls Royce pack-n-play!
Ack!! LOVE that stencil! In fact, I was just looking at almost the exact same one the other day – and they're so dang expensive that a friend and I were even talking about going in on it together!
I've never won anything either, and I've kind of given up…maybe I should keep trying, though!
