ONE WHOLE YEAR Prize Package Giveaway!

The presents have been opened…

The cake has been smashed…


You know what that means! Now that the party is over at home, it’s time to start the blog celebration! 😀

It’s been ONE WHOLE YEAR!

One whole year of getting to know myself as a mommy, one whole year of getting to know my funny little sidekick, one whole year of not sleeping through the night 🙁 and one whole year of getting to know YOU – my encouraging, supportive, never-let-me-down online community. Without you, I may not have made it to our first Nursiversary! Yup, one whole year of successful breastfeeding…and still going strong!

To show you all how thankful I am for the year’s worth of camaraderie, I’ve assembled a prize package featuring many of my favorite items from our first year!

ONE WINNER TAKES ALL! 😯

…and, without further ado, the sponsors ARE...drumroll please…

My sponsors have been WAY generous with their prizes, so please show them some love whenever you can!

My contribution? Well, a little bit of fluff, of course! We fell in love with ours, so the first prize I’d like to announce is a Kawaii Green Baby Minky Bamboo One-Size Pocket Diaper in the gorgeous new olive green color! I love this color for a boy or a girl, it’s super soft and trim, and I’m totally tempted to keep it (but I won’t.) Check out a photo here at Sweetbottoms Baby Boutique. Sweetbottoms is where we get all of our Kawaii diapers, and lots of other fun stuff, too! They have a great selection and offer Free Shipping on all US orders! Woot!

Check back tomorrow for the next prize announcement! Remember, one winner takes all!

Ready for the details?

This is the main entry post. Mandatory entry and ALL subsequent entry comments must be made here. Each day for the next week, I will post a Sponsor Spotlight featuring details about one of our sponsors, and the prize they are offering! Several sponsors are also offering discount codes and special offers for the event, so don’t miss it! Each Sponsor Spotlight will include one easy extra entry opportunity, so be sure to check in each day! (THIS post is sticky, so it will not move. Scroll down my page for each sponsor spotlight!)

    Liked them all! – Very excited about HazelNut kids as I am always looking for natural and educational toys to buy for the little boy I nanny for – he’ll be one on Thanksgiving!!

  20. Meg says

    Inspired by Finn entry:

    I would have a really hard time picking between the Honey and the Cognac round necklaces. Those colors are so rich and gorgeous! I am not a jewelry person, but I am really considering getting one of these for myself!

  25. laurie says

    I have ‘liked’ all of your recommendations. My current favorite is Inspired by Finn. Both of my grandsons have worn an amber necklace from them for a very long time and since I have started wearing one I have noticed a big relief in my pain level.

  26. Taradactyl says

    I would really like to try one of inspired by Finn’s hazelwood necklaces on my 3 year old. He has belly issues and I am hopeful that this would help. I have a friend whose 5 year old wears one because he was getting canker sores and now he no longer gets them.

  36. Jessica says

    I like all of the sponsors on Facebook. It’s so hard to choose but I’m most excited about the amber from Inspired by Finn!

  38. Michelle Murphy says

    I “liked” them all and I’m most excited about Inspired by Finn. DS is 6 mos and just strarting to exhibit signs of teething-just in time got Hylands teething tablets to disappear!

  39. Amber Culbertson says

    I liked all of them and I’m most excited about Inspired by Finn. I used her necklaces for all of my little monsters 😉

  40. Tiffany says

    I liked them all on facebook – I already had Inspired by Finn liked.
    I love Inspired by Finn! I got hazelwood necklaces for my son and I, but I really want to get an amber one for him as well!
    EcoMom looks really cool too! Lots of great stuff on there! I will definitely have to do a bit of shopping.

  41. Meg says

    Happy Baby entry:

    I would love to try any of their products, but I think the HappyBellies cereals look especially good!

  44. Kara F says

    This is great…Happy Birthday to your little one!! I met up with you on twitter during a twitter party (@smiledoula).

    I liked all the sponsors on FB and thanked them all! And thank you too for sponsoring 🙂

    I am most excited about the Kawaii Minky Diaper and Inspired by Finn Amber necklace…but really I am just excited about it all 🙂

    I really like that HappyBaby is all Organic! My daughter LOVED the HappyPuffs and so did Mommy!

    kfig143 at yahoo dot com

  47. Kara F says

    Wow…I would love the try the Amber for Back Pain from Inspired by Finn as well as a teething necklace for my little guy. It’s so hard to just pick one thing!

    kfig143 at yahoo dot com

  53. Kendra says

    I love that Happy Baby yogurt melts have both pre and probiotics for digestive wellness. My daughter absolutely LOVES these yogurt melts.

  61. Stephanie says

    I’ve “Liked” them all one Facebook but I am most excited about Happy Baby! I’ve been trying to find them locally and haven’t had success yet.

  67. katiezoe says

    Oops, forgot to add that I am MOST excited about Inspired by Finn because I have been perusing amber jewelry for my babe and self for a couple weeks without commiting to a purchase…so this would be peeerfect!

  72. Kara F says

    I would like Santa to bring the Under the Nile – Organic Cotton Bear Blanket Friend – Blue from Hazelnut Kids!

    kfig143 at yahoo dot com

  73. Lindsey S says

    I love their organic foods for toddlers. My daughter is almost a year old and it’s cool to see such great variety of foods such as their Happybites Frozen veggie tots!

  74. Lisa Morgan-Klepeis says

    I liked them all on FB, but I’m most excited by Happy Baby because they have such unique (and FUN) blends.

    Baby Bond entry:

    I love the idea of this! I’d use it all the time—we live in town and there is some kind of festival, fair, art show, etc. going on every single weekend in the summer. We will be out and about with the kiddo all the time, and I don’t want to hide under a tent every time we need to nurse!

    Hazlenut Kids entry:

    This site has beautiful toys! I would love, love, love the Eco Town play set. That is so cool! It’s a little extravagent, but Santa doesn’t have a limit on his credit card, right? ;o)

    legoisking at gmail dot com

  82. Courtney says

    I have “liked” all the sponsor sites mentioned! My favorite, so far, it HappyBaby! I am such a foodie and am looking forward to making baby food for my son. He’s three months old right now and the love of my life!

  83. Kelsey says

    BabyBond Entry:

    I definitely plan on breastfeeding when I have children. I would love to keep this around for the day I do get pregnant and have kids..which isnt anytime soon, but maybe in my late 20’s or early 30’s. I love the idea of wraps to hold the baby in- they look super comfortable for the mama as well!

    • wendy @ ABCs and Garden Peas says

      kelsey..when you have a baby, you should definitely look into wraps! (a lot of people refer to it as “babywearing.”) It’s so comforting for baby to be held close to mommy’s body, and it helps with nursing and keeping your hands free, too!

      I highly recommend Mothering Magazine if you ever have the inclination to check it out! 🙂

  84. Kelsey says

    Hazelnut Kids:

    There’s so many wonderful things, especially the new arrivals! I think i’d probably want Santa to bring me the pack of high-quality pencil crayons. They’d give me a reason to get back into drawing and sketching!! Perfect for Holiday art projects!!

  92. Kara F says

    I am so happy you introduced me to Milkin Cookies! I will so try these when my baby boy comes in Feb!

    I learned that if you don’t eat them within 2 weeks you can freeze them!

    kfig143 at yahoo dot com

  96. Kendra says

    I think the BabyBond could be used every day! I would like something like this to use during play dates. Much easier than using a big flowy nursing cover.

  99. mary says

    I liked HappyBaby and Milkin’ Cookies and excited about both! Milkin Cookies seem pretty yum, especially with nooo preservatives! I’m all for wholesome food.

  101. Laura Waltz says

    I “liked” all the Sponsors on Facebook and told them you sent me (and thanked them for sponsoring). I am very excited about the Happy Baby giveaway. Their products are awesome!

  102. Laura Waltz says

    The stuff for my little guy sounds great from Inspired by Finn, but I’d also love to try the 4 Different Colors – Elastic bracelet for a friend of mine!

  103. Laura Waltz says

    My first son loved HappyBaby! products and now my second son is using them, especially their puffs. He just had some a few minutes ago. I love that they work with Project Peanut Butter, to help feed children in Malawi. Such a great cause!

  104. Laura Waltz says

    If I won, I would totally break out my Baby Bond all the time. Not only when I go out, but when people come over to the house. I hate having to go to a different room and miss out on everything they are talking about just because I am nursing my son. With the Baby Bond I could stay and socialize while nursing my son. It’s a win, win!

  105. Laura Waltz says

    After visiting the Hazelnut Kids website and looking around, my older son would love the Educo – My First Tool Box for Christmas!

  106. Laura Waltz says

    My milk supply has been decreasing. This worries me because my 10 month old nurses and is struggling trying to learn how to use a sippy cup. I’d love to try Milkin’ cookies, and I learned on their website that most people see a difference within 24 hours! Also, they offer a subscription option to get their cookies!

  108. Traci Derringer says

    We love your products.. I have a 20 month old.. and I am so glad I am able to conveniently provide her with great nutrition and healthy eating habits. Thank You!

  109. Meg says

    Milkin Cookies entry:

    I am way impressed by the ingredients in these cookies! They sound almost like granola bars more than cookies. Either way, I think they must be delicious! I’m expecting my first in January and didn’t know that something like this even existed. I am definitely going to try them out!

    Eco Mom entry:

    I think the Born Free glass bottles set would be pretty amazing! I’m planning to pump and bottle feed on a very part-time basis (regular BF the rest of the time), so it would be great to have a few high-quality bottles around.

    legoisking at gmail dot com

  111. Laura Waltz says

    After visiting EcoMom and looking at that section of the store, I love the Serena and Lily Take Me Home Gift Set!

  113. Kara F says

    I would get the Bamboobies Nursing pads as a gift to a new mom at Ecomom.com. I have some and they are SOOO soft!

    kfig143 at yahoo.com

  116. Kendra says

    Love the Earth Mama Angel Baby Breastfeeding Support Kit from EcoMom. That would have been a great thing to have when I first started breastfeeding.

  118. LisaMK says

    I think the Kate Quinn Organics, Long Sleeve, Long Legged Lap Neck Jumpsuit with Peacock at EcoMom is adorable.

  120. Kelsey says

    EcoMom rocks for gifts! And when they say gifts for mom’s and not just babies, they weren’t kidding! i love the Alkemie Feather Earings <3

  137. Laura Waltz says

    I read your ducky post! Congratulations, time does go so fast! My youngest is 10 1/2 months old and I nearly cry when I think about him turning one (because he is our last child too). My other child will be 3 in a couple months and I can’t believe that either. I wish I could freeze time sometimes! 🙂

  141. Leslie Dysinger says

    I have liked all of your sponsors. I am happy to be introduced to new products so thank you. I am most excited about Inspired by Finn-I would love to try their teething necklace but DH thinks it is a hoax, but if I win one and he sees that it works I could order more!!! 😉
