DIY, Blogs, and Giveaways!

Ahaha, I suck at blogging. In every way, shape, and form. My time is too much at a premium and well... With two little rug rats running around... Oh, did I say two? Yes. -Like I said, I suck at keeping things up to date.

Any how.

So to keep myself busy in all the spare moments I manage to find during the day, I do what most people do: Surf the net. I love finding new DIY ideas (hello Pinterest!), crochet & knitting patterns, new and entertaining blogs to read, and best of all giveaways! Honestly, who among us hasn't stumbled upon one and excitedly entered it, just for the thrill of it! Well, here's one I found through The Life of a Not So Ordinary Wife. Her name is Melissa and there's just something about the colorfulness of her blog and the way she writes that keeps me coming back for more. : )

Through Melissa's blog, I discovered Trend Snag and their giveaways... And wha-laa. Here I am blogging about it. Make sure you check it out on Facebook and enter their Jewel-a-Day Giveaway! Cheers!

You! Lingerie!

How exciting! Who doesn't like giveaways??

Since coming into rule the kingdom of Mommydom, I've tried all manner of "mommy gear". One (now favorite) brand I stumbled upon is You! Lingerie. I came upon it browsing a local baby boutique (who has since sadly closed down). For ONCE a sexy stunning; drop-dead gorgeous brand of maternity/nursing lingerie that actually is lingerie. Not just a matronly, white or nude colored nursing bra - the kind you hide in the bottom of your sock drawer, but the kind you proudly hang dry on your clothes line outside, well in view of nosy neighbors. :) Mommy-clothes you can feel good about.

The part I loved was how affordable they were! So, home I went with a sassy Berry Monroe ($29.99 US). DD loved the functionality and easy access to dinner, I loved the feel and support, and you can bet Hubbie loved the look! ;) And who wouldn't?

My wishlist now includes one of every color and you can bet I'll be placing an order soon!

Now the exciting thing about all this is You! Lingerie has developed the Double You! Tank - for nursing! With a handful of colors to choose from, there's one for every nursing mommy - possibly for Free! You! Lingerie is giving away 25 Double You! Tanks to 25 lucky people who enter their draw. Feel free to visit their website by clicking here for your chance at these exciting new Tanks before they hit the shelves!!

Good luck mommies!!
