#BabyGotMoves

There is something about my girls and music – they LOVE it! They also LOVE to dance. Like, LOVE! Anything that sounds like a beat you will see both Gianna and Aleesia bee-bopping along.
Aleesia just started to really get into music and dancing, it’s seriously my favorite to watch her little 18 month old booty dancing around the house. She’s hilarious!

In fact, this morning she got up and came into the living room where Mickey was on, and she immediately started bouncing around dancing doing the hot dog dance. A happy baby = a happy family and it was definitely a great way to start my Friday.

You know what equals a happy baby though, right? A dry baby and there is no secret behind my love of Pampers and their ability to move and grove with this little dancing queen. And their sensitive wipes are the best on her sensitive little booty.

She makes this little octopus toy crinkle and I see her bobbing her head. Plus it makes all kinds of noises and plays music so in the midst of her post-dinner silliness I saw her hanging out on the couch jamming (and randomly identifying the color purple, correctly!)

In fact, Pampers is hosting the #BabyGotMoves campaign so everyone with a cute kid who loves to dance can participate! Pampers is going to take some of the videos that have been shared and compile them into a compilation video at the end of the campaign – your baby could be famous! So take a video of your little one in the morning (or in the afternoon, evening, middle of the night, whenever they like to bust a move) and share it with everyone on Instagram and Facebook with the hashtag #BabyGotMoves – but especially Pampers! You fan find Pampers on Twitter and Facebook too.

I am going to be sharing this awesome video of Aleesia from Disney – it incorporates her favorite things: music, dancing, and cheerios!



But before you run over to Facebook or Instragram to upload your own video – take a second to enter the awesome giveaway in support of this fabulous campaign!
Pampers is giving away a GREAT prize pack (estimated value $100)  which will include:
  • Homedics Jam Plus Wireless Bluetooth Speaker (these things are SO COOL!)
  • Baby Einstein Octoplush (Aleesia loves it, see above!)
  • Bright Starts Pretty In Pink Get Movin' Music Player (Both of the girls actually love this thing, too)
  • The Baby Hustle: An Interactive Book with Wiggles and Giggles! (this one is a hit already)
  • Pampers Sensitive Wipes
  • Pampers Baby Dry Diapers
Simply enter a comment with your favorite song to dance too – what puts you in a good mood no matter what? Mine is Timber if I am feeling spunky, Don’t Stop Believing if I am feeling nostalgic, and pretty much anything with a good beat any other time of day.

Bonus entries for sharing this giveaway on Twitter, Facebook, or through your own blog – just leave an extra comment with the link!

Speedy Firsts {#SwaddlersFirsts campaign}

They always say that any subsequent children after the first one sort of get the short end of the stick when it comes to capturing their “firsts”.

Of course, when I was pregnant with Aleesia I was SURE that wasn’t going to be the case.

And I was of course wrong.

I only remember to update her “first year” calendar once every 6 weeks or so and by then I’m basically making up when things actually happened. First tooth on October 6th, ish. Said “hi” for the first time somewhere in the month of November.  Very precise record keeping.

One thing that I did remember from first baby to second is my love of Pampers diapers (which, you clearly understand by now if you have visited the blog before) but especially Swaddlers.  They are so soft and we never see any skin issues, it’s great.  And Swaddlers come in sizes 4 and 5 now – which is fabulous!

Pampers Swaddlers Packaging

Pampers has come up with some seriously great opportunities to engage mom’s, new and old, including through their “firsts” campaign. 

Being a working mom, I usually miss the ACTUAL first, so I tend to count the first time I see something as “the first”.  (does anyone else do that?) But, Aleesia has been quite accommodating to my schedule and I have been lucky enough to be home for a few pretty big firsts.  The first time she crawled, the first time she pulled up to stand and the first time she took a step.

11.23  (16)

Wait, what was that? STEPS you say? Check her out:

It’s still hard for me to believe this is happening, and I promise to remember to write this in her calendar soon.  I’m sure it won’t be too much longer before she is walking around the house unassisted with that awesome monster like toddle that I find so adorable.  I remember the day Gianna took her first steps like it was yesterday, these things just come and go so fast it’s unbelievable!

Swaddlers can be there for all the firsts in your baby’s life and to celebrate Swaddlers sizes 4 & 5, Pampers has 30 days of incredible giveaways and a grand price of FREE Swaddlers diapers & wipes for a year. (FREE! A YEAR! yay!) Join the celebration and enter the Pampers’ 30 days of sweeps on the Pampers Facebook page where you can win daily prize bundles, plus the grand prize of free Swaddlers diapers & wipes for one year.

Plusandalso there is a great Pampers #SwaddlersFirsts Twitter Party on December 5th at 9PM EST.  If you joined the last one, you know how great they are. Here are the details:

You should RSVP here: http://twtvite.com/SwaddlersFirsts

Sweet Sleep (please sleep?) #PampersSleepChat

We all know I am a sucker for a sleeping baby.  I take a ridiculous amount of pictures of the girls in their sleep.  See?

8.17  (1)8.17  (3)

Except here’s the thing – that tiny one there, she is not a huge fan of night sleep all of a sudden.   We have a good bedtime. And a quiet routine. And always comfy PJs.

However, we discovered a bit of a wet diaper/leakage issue.  We are pretty loyal to Pampers Swaddlers but for some reason had been using a different brand overnight.  They was weren’t fitting her well enough and we were getting pee leakage out the leg hole! and they were no where near absorbent enough.  So we did some research and decided to pull out the big guns. Enter:

BabyDry_Size_4

Pampers Baby Dry! Up to 12 hours of overnight protection! And? They make them in a small enough size for Aleesia! We put one on her before bedtime and don’t have to worry about her waking up wet. Since we switched? NO LEAKS at all (which means she is waking up at night for some OTHER reason!). 

I thought this infographic pretty much summed it up the 3 a.m. wake up scenario prettttty appropriately!

infographic_PAMPERS_RE2

Recently, she started only wanting to sleep on or with me. Which, is precious and awesome for a little while, but I really like to sleep myself and co-sleeping is not my thing.  She is slightly difficult to get to stay sleep and then she wants to hang out with me at 4am.  Needless to say, I am tired and she is not as well rested as we all like.  (Her pediatrician did assure me today that 9 month olds go through a change in sleep pattern/separation anxiety, so I am hoping things will get better soon.)

But now we have the other HUGE sleep-game-changer this weekend (Sunday November 3rd at 2:00 a.m. to be exact) – the end of daylight savings time.  Fall Back. AKA the time when all small children get up an hour earlier than normal.  Over half of moms (52%) feel that their baby's sleep patterns are thrown off when the clocks 'fall back' and Daylight Savings Time ends – I am most certainly in that 52%.  Gianna is old enough that it won’t really phase her, but I have been trying to prepare my sweet little non-sleeper Aleesia for the whole “fall back” situation.

Kim West, “The Sleep Lady”, has some really wonderful tips for helping with the end of daylight savings time adjustment.  These a few of my favorite tips, aside from ensuring they have a dry diaper on right before bed, are:

1. Watch your baby’s wakefulness windows. Children have a limited window of wakefulness (the time that they can be awake and alert without meltdowns) between naps and bedtimes. Make sure that you watch your baby for sleepy cues carefully. Make sure that you’re changing your baby’s diaper right before your child goes into the crib for naps or bedtime. Keeping your child dry will help to prevent unnecessary night awakenings, and help to ensure a happy, well-rested baby the next day.

2. Stick to your flexible schedule. If you always have breakfast at 8:00 a.m., then keep your schedule, but make sure that you are following it according to the time change. You can start slowly adjusting your daily schedule forward in 10-15 minute increments 4-5 days before the time change. So if you normally have lunch at 11:30, on Wednesday, have lunch at 11:40, on Thursday, move lunch to 11:50 and so on. The same goes for naps and bedtimes. The idea is that when the time change takes effect your child’s circadian rhythm, or internal clock will already be in sync with the change.

3. The end of daylight savings is a good time to make sure that your child’s bedtime is age-appropriate. Infants and babies do best with a bedtime between 7:30 and 8:00 p.m. Later bedtimes have shown to have a negative effect on children’s attitudes and their ability to focus, and can result in instances of early rising. If you find that your baby has been going to bed too early or too late, take advantage of the time change to gradually shift bedtime (back or forward in 15-30 minute increments over the next week).

I feel like I could pick The Sleep Lady’s brain for hours on how to ease into the end of daylight savings and about a 100 other sleep topics (how to help with self soothing at night. easing them through changes in sleep cycles.)  I could also go on and on about how great Pampers products are and how wonderful their customer service is check them out on Twitter (linked below) and Facebook too!  I mean, they sent me a gift when I was pregnant with Aleesia – it was the sweetest, most appropriate onesie ever:

2.2  (63)

The good news? We can all join Kim West, The Sleep Lady, and Pampers for the  #PampersSleepChat Twitter Party on November 7th at 9pm EST.  Chat about how the end of Daylight Savings Time can affect sleep patterns & get tips on easing the transition from The Sleep Lady, Kim West.

Twitter Party prizes include:

  • $50 AMEX Gift Card, $25 Children’s Place Gift Card, Pampers product and book by Kim West.
  • $100 AMEX Gift Card, Pampers Product, series of books by Kim West
  • Grand Prize: $500 AMEX Card to purchase sleep items such as a new crib, video monitor, etc.
  • To participate, follow your hosts @DoubleDutyDivas, @BridgetteLA, @CeceliaMecca @AngieKcom @WhatMommiesNeed @RamblingChick, sleep expert @TheSleepLady and our sponsor @Pampers.

RSVP: http://twtvite.com/pamperssleepchat

I hope you tune in to the Twitter party – the Double Duty Divas put on a great show! But if you can’t make it or you aren’t loving Twitter – I have a little something special for you too!

Leave a comment with your favorite sleep tip or trick (or your favorite way to appear well-rested even if you aren’t!) And maybe YOU could win a pack of Pampers Baby Dry Diapers, and a pair of Children’s Place PJ’s! [which, I love Children’s Place PJ’s, so soft and such cute patterns!]

I can’t wait to hear all your tips!

AboutOne: Review and a special treat for YOU

I was recently given an opportunity to check out AboutOne – a secure online family management system started in December 2008 by Joanne Lang.

You can put all kinds of information in one spot that you can access from anywhere – address books, health records, education information, home and vehicle information and so much more.

Here’s a cute video to explain the service:

AboutOne–what’s the deal?
  

I have a few personal favorite parts about AboutOne – the Babysitter Instructions report - How awesome is this? You enter important information in once, make notes as you go and it’s available anytime you need it. This puts me at ease that I didn’t forget anything when leaving G with someone (especially if we leave her with someone new).

The Home maintenance report is great another area that AboutOne offers – this is a place where you can log any repairs or upgrades you have made to your home with applicable contact information and notes. The vehicle page is also great, since we all know my ridiculously awful luck with vehicles lately. I have been able to record all of the information here along with copies of our insurance policy and other mechanical reports.

You can upload (or email!) copies of all kinds of information right to your AboutOne account – including pictures that you can post to the family bulletin board (so fun!), important documents – like immunization records, education records and any other thing you can possibly think of that you want to keep safe and easily accessible.

You can also find AboutOne on Facebook and Twitter – great sources to learn more about how other people are making AboutOne work in their lives.

The very best part about AboutOne, is how much they like to share!

Sign up for a a free trial and at the end of your trial use AREULISTENING714 [exp 8.31] for 25% off your membership!!

For a busy mom, or busy human in general, this is a priceless tool to stay organized and keep everything that is important together in one always-accessible place.

What’s your pleasure

Day 3 of summer camp and we are going to discuss guilty pleasures. I have a few too many.

2.23

crockpot chocolate cake. OMG it is to.die.for good. Not good if you are watching your figure – unless of course you want to watch it expand.

3.22

Target. Gianna loves her some Target as well. Only the cool chic’s go there.

1.51.21

Beverages. Both of the alcoholic and coffee varieties. I drink water the most though. Really, I do…..

3.5

Shoes. I have a 50 pair shoe rack that is bursting at the seams and I often say “I have no shoes to wear with this outfit!”. (seriously, I don’t).

3.9  (8)

My phone. I’m on it way too much. But how else can I keep up with twitter and play WWF?

What’s YOUR pleasure?

  • Gianna is full of hilarious these days, I need to remember to write down the funny things she says.
  • I  made our meal plan for next week. I will only be “cooking” (meal plan says: chicken nuggets? salad?) one day because things are so busy and G will be at my Mom’s like 3/5 nights for dinner.
  • They asked me to teach again next semester, so yay to that.
  • I applied for another teaching position at a bigger college…..
  • And I need to work on my presentation for next week.

Friends inside the computer

Staying with the NaBloPoMo theme of friends, I have to talk about my awesome friends inside the computer. And all over the country (world?)

It is twentyeleven, folks.  The days of meeting your next best friend at the grocery store, corner market or play ground are pretty much over.  Everyone is freaked by, well, everyone else.  Or too nervous to say “hey!” to the normal looking person in aisle 3. (me included, although I say hi to lots of strangers because I like it) ((does that make me the creepy girl in aisle 3?))

So how do we make friends as adults? 

We meet them inside the computer.

On facebook.

On Twitter.

Through blogs, message boards, forums and all the other social media formats that exist.

And  you guys?

These are, honest to goodness, some of my closest friends.  Friends that I would do anything for, hands down. That have been there for me when others were not. that offered hugs and encouragement through email, text messages, twitter shout outs and all that jazz.  It is amazing how well I know people I have never met (and they know me), how much I trust them and honestly care for them.  Kind of fun too because they tend to offer much more objective, outside the box opinions when I really need them – and I like that.  I wish I could have coffee, playdates, girls nights with those people more than the friends who I met outside the computer sometimes. 

What is really fun about friends inside the computer, is that sometimes they become friends outside the computer too.  I have been really lucky to make some really REALLY good friends this way, that live close to me and that we hang out with on the regular.  It’s fun.  But we will talk about the outside the computer friends on a later day.

Tell me about your inside the computer friends.  Do you love them as much as I do?

Thanks, inside the computer friends, for being so awesome!

Alternative ABC’s :GIVEAWAY

We love books in our house.

ALOT.

I was contacted by Sarah of Ammobooks (via Buisness2Blogger) to review an awesome new book.

I wanted to see what Gianna thought of her new book.

DSC_0380

A new house AND a new book?! My lucky day!

We sat down to read this incredibly illustrated book.

DSC_0382

DSC_0386

please don’t mind my bed head. it’s been a long few days.

We flipped through the pages and read about how E is for earthday and V is for vegetarian.

DSC_0387 DSC_0388

This book is hugely different from any of the other boring old A is for Apple ABC books we already have. The binding is sturdy (Gianna tested it out for you all). The colors & illustrations are stimulating.  It gives us new words to learn and great pictures to look at.  This has quickly become a new favorite in our house.

DSC_0389

And?

We want to share this rocking book with all of you!

Tell me what “alternative” thing you would use in an ABC book to win!

Mine is O is for Oreos – totally unoriginal, but you can’t go wrong with an Oreo….

  • Follow me on twitter
  • Follow my blog
