Boppys all around

When I was pregnant I bought a Boppy pillow to aid with breastfeeding. At the time I didn't really know that it was handy for propping the baby up or for using it for tummy time.
I used that pillow all the time when Lily was first born for nursing, it was so helpful. I was very tired (surprising I know) and she was very small. The pillow was very helpful in propping her up. I also found it extremely helpful for naps. Lily preferred to be held from the moment she was born, she never wants to be put down. Who can blame her? I smell good and love her to bits. I found that when she was completely asleep I could put the Boppy in my glider with the opening facing inside the chair. She would sleep there (sometimes) for an hour or more. This probably isn't advised by the wonderful Boppy poeple. But I was always right there so there was no fear of her getting hurt.

We have since bought a Boppy swing and she will nap in it sometime too. Is compact and plays a nice little tune.

Our Lincoln Log is giving away a Boppy pillow and a organic slip cover go check her out and enter to win.
She's also giving away 3 FuzzyBunz cloth diapers.

Win a Chef and Father DVD



A Psych Mommy is giving away a DVD from Chef and Father on how to make homemade food for your baby.

This is volume 1. Volume 2 will be out soon.

I really want this DVD. I want to make Lily's baby food when she's gets old enough for solids. Shari says that it really helped her with making Mr. Beans baby food. I think its a great idea. Much less expensive and more importantly you know that the food is fresh and healthy.

Giveaway ends: April 23rd
