Today I’ve got a gift basket giveaway that enhances life with little ones. Since this blog is about simplicity, and since it’s geared towards parents, these products align perfectly with our entire philosophy here. Plus, I love that every one of these companies are mom-owned and operated.
One reader will receive all of these items as one gift basket plethora of childlike goodness! Read on.
Oliver Handmade
Erin has a darling shop, Oliver Handmade, where she sells her hand-appliqued and embroidered onesies, shirts, and bibs for little ones. I especially love the animals – she’s got everything from elephants to crabs to elks!
For the gift basket, Oliver Handmade is giving a 3-6 month short-sleeved onesie with her Gerry the Giraffe design. Too cute.
Swingset Mamas
These two moms named Swingset Mamas are song writers and performers who’ve collaborated on two CDs of music for the entire family. Their lyrics are fun and educational, and – well, let’s just say their music doesn’t sound too much like kids’ music. The parents won’t go insane listening to it. It’s a win-win!
Swingset Mamas is giving away one copy of their latest DVD, Swing, Dance and Sing. You can see more by heading here for a compilation of their work.
Shape-Its
Michelle, a busy mom, invented Shape-Its, which are aluminum cook-top and oven-safe food shapers. They come in over 30 different designs, and you can create concoctions like individual turtle pizzas, pterodactyl pancakes, giant airplane cookies, and heart hamburgers. What kid wouldn’t love that?
Shape-Its is giving away two holiday kits, just in time for Christmas! Each kit contains a tree, star, and angel shape, along with decorating gel, sprinkles, and four food-safe markers. And because they’ve donated two, that means one additional reader will win a kit! Thank you, Michelle.
Little Alouette
This is a very sweet mom-and-pop shop (literally), where they make all-natural wooden toys and baby gear for little ones from their home. Little Alouette creates blocks, rattles, and more, using maple wood and organic seed oils as a finish. Their stuff is beautifully simple.
Little Alouette is giving away a maple rattler teether, perfect for your baby or for a baby shower gift. Let the drooling begin.
Ambajam
Ambajam carries the cutest baby gear, including mix-n-match clothing and accessories and some really great blankets, quilts, and pillows. Their cuddle blankets get rave reviews around the blogosphere – most have said they’re like squeezing a cloud.
Ambajam is donating a mini cuddle to the gift basket, a great on-the-go blanket made with double-sided plush felt, and adorned with an embroidered baby turtle. Love it.
Swaddlebees
Margarita began sewing diapers for her newborn in 2004, and today, she runs Swaddlebees, her organic fabric diaper business that also sells covers, accessories, and high-quality cloth diapers in 32 designer fabrics. The diapers are lined with organic cotton, which is non-toxic and non-irritating, and contain no bleach, chlorine, or pesticides. Its specially-woven microfleece is 95 percent less susceptible to detergent build-up. Cloth diapering is now just as easy an option as disposable, with so many choices, supplies, and well-made materials. They just make so much sense ecologically and economically.
Swaddlebees is giving one reader one of their latest pocket Econappis in a fun print. This is perfect for the parent who wants to give cloth diapering a spin.
Laugh-Friendly
Two sisters, Elizabeth Sills and Elena Patrice, created the world of Nana Star based on characters created years ago by their grandmother. The stories are above all concerned with inspiring character by encouraging traditional values like compassion, kindness, and generosity. Their beautifully-illustrated picture books are created to build character in youngsters – they promote positive values in a simple and imaginative manner. So sweet.
The Laugh Friendly publishers are giving a wonderful set to the gift basket – the books “Nana Star” and “Nana Star and The Moonman,” a Nana Star poseable doll, and a Moonman Lovey. In addition – and this is what I just love – they will give the winner an additional one to donate to their favorite charity, children’s hospital, library, school, organization, or caregiver. What a quality company.
MetroTots
Mary Ann Schwanewede of MetroTots is an urban mom in New York City, and had a problem I can definitely relate to – where to store the stroller. Those of us that live in metropolitan cities – and the suburbs, too – know that storage space is at a premium, and strollers can be cumbersome-yet-essential gear. She created the StrollAway, an over-the-door storage system that works for most models of strollers. It’s made of durable steel and is adjustable to nine different positions. So simple, but it’s brilliant.
MetroTots is giving one StrollAway to the gift basket. You better believe I’m psyched about a product that is both created by a mom and reduces clutter and streamlines home organization. I’m in love with this thing.
Whew… What a giveaway, no? The total value is over $230 – most of this would make wonderful Christmas presents, so it’s just in time for the holidays.
How To Win
1. Leave a comment on this post and tell me something cute your little one does or says (or if you’re not a parent, it can be any little one in your life). I know this will be really challenging for you.
2. For a second entry, blog or Twitter about this giveaway and make sure I know about it.
No secret code this time… I’m still recovering from the last secret code giveaway.
This giveaway ends on Wednesday, December 3 at midnight CST.
I hope you win!

My 15 month old daughter…how she entertains me! It’s hard to narrow it down to one thing…just this morning she was sitting with her Daddy on the futon, playing Playstation. She has her own control (not hooked up!) to be just like Daddy…two peas in a pod!!!!
I twittered about it as sonyafreeney
Yay!!!
sonya´s last blog post…Freedom of Choice Act
I am expecting my first child in January 2009. We have some friends with a small child who came over for dinner this past week and they told him I have a baby in my tummy, to which he asked “did you swallow a baby??”

Andrea´s last blog post…Let the eating commence!
My little guy is only four months old and can’t talk, sit, or roll over yet. But he does have his little way of talking – and it always sounds Really Important! I posted a video on my blog for the relatives a while back:
http://babyfriday.blogspot.com/2008/11/message-from-boy-friday.html
Super cute! Well, to me, anyway. I also love his little laughs (but who doesn’t like baby laughs?).
thursday´s last blog post…Thinking About Rolling Over.
What an awesome giveaway full of things my baby would love in his stocking! My 4 year old daughter is always saying cute things, like heartbeep instead of heartbeat and pinktails instead of pigtails. My baby boy has just learned how to wrinkle his nose, and he does it all the time! Too cute!
Gina´s last blog post…Meme
My 13 month old loves to drop things from her high chair. Except right before she lets them go she looks at us quite earnestly and says “Uh Oh…” As if to let us know she’s really going to do it. Too cute. Although what doesn’t she do that’s cute?
Thanks for the great giveaway!
murphys(at)rowan(dot)edu
So many cute things my 20 month old does… I just don’t know which one to choose!! Her latest thing is to say “Cuuu-ute!” whenever she sees something she likes. It has caused me to buy many new outfits for her. Neither of us can resist something “Cuuu-ute”
Claire´s last blog post…From the Archives
My son used to think eleven was a huge number, so if he wanted to indicate that he wanted a whole lot of something, he’d say, “Mom, I want BUNCHES of elevens!”
My Maddie likes to eat “girl cheese sandwiches” instead of “grilled cheese” and insists that boys aren’t allowed to eat them!
Something cute that my baby does is he poots everytime I peep in the leg of his diaper to see if he is clean and my niece is so cute because she is always doing the itsy bitsy spider with her hands and she isn’t even singing,she just likes the part you do with your hands!
WOW! What a giveaway!
My daughter is just beginning to talk, so everything she says is a treasure to me. The other day I was laying down with her so she would fall asleep for her nap. She rubbed my forehead and said “Mommy close eyes.” I guess she wanted some company during her nap!
SarahHub @ Oakbriar Farm´s last blog post…Thankful

Both my boys, my 3 r old and my 2 yr old run around pretending they are Batman. But my youngest son will yell at his brother “Come on Boy Wonder!”
Jessie´s last blog post…Black Friday Madness
My nine month old is on the chubby side. Everyone is calling him by a food, I guess it’s because Thanksgiving is on their mind. He’s been called a stick of butter, yummy delight and of course a Butterball! He’s still taught himself to stand on his own for about a minute even though he’s chubby.
Jackie Brown´s last blog post…Monday, December 8, 9 a.m. -12 p.m.
My little girl is three and a half. She is so cute when she tells me she loves me.
“Mom, I love you and you do too”
Does not get much better than that!
Keilah´s last blog post…December 3 is Giveaway Day!!
What a fantastic giveaway!
One thing my 3 year old says after dinner is, “Mom, will you do service for me?” when he wants me to clear his plate. How can I say no to that?! I really love it when he says, “Mom, I will do service for you.” and clears my plate!
Each of my kids has had a different word for banana. 2 yr. old Ellie says “bana,” 3 yr. old Ben just recently stopped saying “buh-bana,” and 5 yr. old Will USED to say “manna.” I’m sad when they start saying the correct word.
stephaniesmommybrain´s last blog post…This little piggy was snoring?!
Thanks for the give-away. I love reading your blog!
My husband works quite long hours and so sometimes it feels like he isn’t here very much. He is currently at home for a month and my son told his teacher that he was the “luckiest boy in town because his dad is home for Christmas.” It’s amazing the things kids say that really explain what is going on in their hearts.
Amanda´s last blog post…handmade holidays
My 9 month old son recently started trying to wrestle my husband if he is lying on the floor near him. My son crawls over and throws himself on my husband repeatedly and giggles. Very cute!
Fox’s way of saying he wants to be held is to say “I wanna hold you” instead of “Hold me” – it is so funny!
Oh, it’s hard to choose just one cute thing my kids do or say. The first thing that came to my mind is my daughter says O-Tay instead of okay. I love it! My 16 month old waves his hand when he wants to say Yes- his own little sign language. I could go on forever…
Thanks for the chance!
Amber´s last blog post…Thankful
Mine says “Ah jeeez” in a really loud voice.
My littlest one still uses many of his own words for things. The stairs, for instance, are “bumpity,” as in, “bumpity, bumpity down the stairs.” If he wants to go up or down stairs, he says, “Me Bumpity!”
Carole´s last blog post…thinking about Christmas
Pretty Girl calls Rice Cakes…..Popcorn Cookies…..
Thanks for all the great tips on your blog. LOVE THEM>…
I love when my baby smiles! He’s only 6 weeks old, so most of them are probably not on purpose, but it’s still too cute!!!
Tweeted
Don’t know how cute it is… but it makes us laugh every time… my 4-year-old learned all about the pres. candidates at school and was telling his little brother (almost 2) all the scoop. Well, now every *single* time we see Barack Obama or here his name on the radio… the little guy gets soooooo excited and jumps up and down and yells “Grock Omama, mama!! Grock O-ma-ma, mama!!”
My son isn’t speaking yet, but he’s certainly isn’t lacking in the cute category! After a while of rigorous play, he slumps against the nearest object that will support his weight and acts as though he’s completely worn out. Just taking a break for the next round….
My son (he’s almost 3) likes to go to ‘Home Deep-toh’ with his daddy. He calls Snoopy “Noofy” and he used to call his paci his “bapsee”.
Heather´s last blog post…Obnoxiousness…
I used to babysit for a little boy that used to say “can i hold you” when he wanted me to pick him up.
Jessica Hulsey´s last blog post…Come to my window…..
Great giveaway! Everything my 2-year-old son does and says is so cute to me right now. He’s just at that super-cute age. His latest “cute-ism” is walking around the house bellowing the song “Mr. Turkey” at the top of his lungs.
My almost 2 year old daughter is so funny. Sometimes when she is in trouble she looks at me and says “Hug, You need a hug.” How can you be upset with that.
Every morning I can tell when my oldest (22 months) wakes up because she looks over at her (9 months) brother’s crib and yells, “HI DAT!!!” (His name is Dax) I love that she’s so excited to see him.
Joanna´s last blog post…Dax Voted This Year, Too!
my son is four so his pronunciation of certain words are what’s endearing right now. the way he says girls “gwils” and he uses the word actually a lot which is very funny.
chickadee´s last blog post…Shopping
I have a 3 year old a 1 year old and am expecting my third. My favorite thing they do is come up to my belly and kiss and sing Jesus Loves Me to their new baby brother.
Kari´s last blog post…Black Friday Music Deals
Oh yes, lots of cute things my babes do and say. I think when my son gives kisses and goes mmmmmmmmmmma probably takes the cake though.
molly´s last blog post…A New Laundry Hamper
My DS is big on trucks – so he’s constantly walking around making truck sounds like he’s starting the engine or backing up. He really gets into it too!
My son carries on full conversations with his picture of his daddy. (Daddy is overseas right now and calls are infrequent) He will talk and then pause and then talk some more like Daddy is really answering him. Sad, but sweet.
Thanks for the great giveaway!
Erin´s last blog post…Happy Thanksgiving!
Today as we were getting out the Christmas ornaments, I was telling our son how the ornaments are not toys, they are just too look at. He always says he is just tending. So, today he said, “I’m just tending they are toys, okay mom?” And of course, he was playing with them.
Amber D.´s last blog post…Thanksgiving 1997
Oh, what a great giveaway! My 3 year old sings “Mama is so cute” as he walks around the house. It makes my heart swell!
Marisa´s last blog post…A Game of Squash
My 15-month-old, Ava, says and does lots of cute things, but my favorite thing is when I walk into her room and she says, “mama” and her little face lights up. =)

My daughter doesn’t say much yet, but I am a daycare teacher. One of my little girls was swinging around a pole on the play ground and shouting, “It’s a miracle! Look Ms. Emily, it’s a miracle!” She was trying to say merry-go-round.
My youngest says that “Santa” is going to catch our new baby…who is due around Christmas-time.
Gosh – I’d have to say at the current minute – singing. . .well, screaming actually, “Miss Mary Mack” at the top of his lungs. . .all the verses. . .LOL –

Hillary´s last blog post…a good time. . .
My daughter who is 2 1/2 believes she is a princess & wears a princess dress (that is in tattered rags) every single day & when we meet people out & about, she glows when they compliment her outfit & she will twirl & say,
” LOOK AT ME!! I AM A PRINCESS!”
I love the innocence and deep belief that she has that this is true. I wish she could keep it forever.
My almost 3 year old was riding in the car one morning looking out the window, and the moon was still visible, even though the sun was relatively high in the sky. She was confused to the moon and sun both being out together, then she said, ” I know what happened, the sun asked the moon to stay for a donut!” Also, the other day, we were out walking and saw two different people with puppies and she said to me, “I wanted a puppy, but all I got was Molly.” (Molly is her baby sister) We would everything in this giveaway! Thanks for the chance to talk about our cuties!
What a great basket! My little boy who will be 2 in March is a bit behind in his language skills. Everything he says or attempts to say is so cute to me. But what is super sweet is when he is “helping” me put away the silverware, he will get it out of the basket and hand it to me and say thank you which sounds something like “tane too”. He says when he hands me anything he knows he isn’t supposed to have and also when I put him in his high chair to eat.
I LOVE IT!
Darcy´s last blog post…Daisy, Grace, OWEN!
When my little guy doesn’t want to get up he says “Just a little more cuddle mom”. Melts my heart every time.
Our two year old is constantly taking stock of who is in the house, or car, or wherever we are at. We’ll hear her in the kitchen going, ‘Mommy, Daddy, Deyah (what she calls herself) sometimes adding in the cats or grandmas or friends who aren’t there. When she says their name she quickly follows it with a ‘no!’ and a bout of laughter. Because obviously that’s hilarious!
It’s sweet and I just have to wonder what’s going on in her head!
darah´s last blog post…my favorite holiday EVER.
Grady is 19 months old and thinks raisins are candy. So he stands by the raisins and says “please, please, please”. And then when you give him one he says “Thank you!”
Katherine´s last blog post…Today I am …
My daughter is 5.5 months old. She’s been playing with her feet for a while now, but just yesterday, she figured out how to suck on her toes all by herself. (She’d had help getting them all the way there before!) It’s just adorable!
Heather´s last blog post…Works for Me Wednesday & 24 Weeks
I’m a girlguide leader…we were teaching the girls about the history of how girlguides canada started (about 100 years ago; back in the early 1900′s) and one little girl pipes up…”that sure is a long time ago….that was when my mom was young!”
I twittered!

Heather´s last blog post…Works for Me Wednesday & 24 Weeks
Oh, Munchkin cracks me up just about every day. My current favorite is her stuffed pig. His name? Bob Bob Bob. No, really. As in, “Hello Bob Bob Bob!” Too cute.
liz (perspicacious)´s last blog post…a wordless “thankful for…”
I have a funny one- when I mad at my older I say I brought you into this world and I can take you out…..one of the others runs to the backdoor and says bye bye..the other looks at me and says he is to big to go back in- he is gonna hurt you…see so kids look and hear things differently
When my daughter was very young, she used to get beginning consonants and syllables mixed up. Here are some of her more memorable words: chock hotlick (hot chocolate), chee cains (key chains), wonderland (underwear), patterkillers (caterpillars), and poo taste (toothpaste)! She cracked us up all the time, and I felt kind of sad when she started saying words correctly.
Sandy´s last blog post…Thanksgiving Q & A
My 5 mo old son likes to take his pacifier out of his mouth, remove his sock and suck on his toes while using his other leg to keep his bouncy seat bouncing.
My 4 year old always says, “Ha, ha, ha- just don’t you worry about that, momma.” My one year old always smiles impishly and shrugs when you ask her a question.
My littlest, Elijah, only 3 months old, hums as he snuggles in to go to sleep, with each breath out. He seems to do it out of peace, happiness, and security, because it stops when we lay him down in his bed… Love that!
Posted over on my blog about your giveaway as well!
Blessings,

mamabeck´s last blog post…On this day…
What a fab giveaway! With a 2-year old and one on the way, I’m drooling just scrolling through the goodies.
Lately, my 2yo has seen me pretty sick with morning sickness, and she always pats my head and says “Don’t cry mama, I loooove you!” Just breaks my heart!
Kate´s last blog post…Highland Girl
Today my four year old asked which cloud heaven was on. When I asked why he said he needed to know so he could lasso our dog Teeter-tot and bring her back from heaven.
My little one will dance stop what she is doing and try to dance when she hears music. Although I think she got her dad’s rhythm. She kind of wobbles and sticks her belly out when she is trying to dance.
Our little guy (4 months) smiles and laughs and it is super cute!
When my son son says I’m sorry to my daughter he pats and rubs her head. I think it’s hilarious!
What a great basket!
My little guy (2 years) had a cold last week and his nose was stuffy. He told me “There is a noise in my nose!” He keeps me smiling.
My 9 month old son does the mini “hulk.” He clenches his fists, holds his breath making his face go red, ending in an explosive grunt! I don’t know where (or who) he got it from!
My little man (2 yrs) is always trying to eat off out plates, or whining or various other things. So we tell him he needs to ask. So he always comes back with, “Ask, yeah ask. Foooood? Mease? Okay.” And then he thinks he can grab whatever it was. Cracks me up.
caitlin´s last blog post…
WOW! I would love to win the goodies. I will be a grandma in 4 months and can hardly wait. This will be my first grand child!
I don’t have my own little one, but my nephew is absolutely adorable – so hard to narrow down the cute things he does! He’s such a polite little kid, and I’ve noticed that every time anyone gives him something, wipes his mouth, holds his hand, or just sits with him, he’ll say “Thank You.” It’s so simple, but so sweet to see such a polite little guy (and he’s not even two yet).

caitlin´s last blog post…
My 3-year-old Emily has learned the Zaccheus song in Sunday School. She knows most of the words and the melody and sings it all with great gusto. The second line puzzled us for awhile. She sings it “He climbed up in the sic-him-up (sycamore) tree”. She also wants to be called by whatever name she decides. Right now, that is “Big-Girl-Emily-Elizabeth-Barnes-Doctor-Princess-Mei-Mei (Chinese for little sister).
The cutest thing a little boy in my life does is talk about another little girl as “My Bella.” Her name is Bella. And he talks about her until he sees her and then gets all shy. They are going to be so embarrassed when they grow up!
I have a 4 month-old, and I think just about every little thing she does is cute. (I am a wee bit biased.) I find it funny that she grunts when she poops. It’s too stinkin’ cute – literally.
Andrea W.´s last blog post…Gobble Gobble
Even though my daughter is 3 1/2 and can pronounce words correctly she still holds on to her baby pronunciation of the words “lellow” for yellow and “plano” for piano. It’s so sweet and I never correct her because it reminds me that she’s still my baby!
My 2 year old ds likes to repeat my own little mannerisms. His latest thing is that he will say “Ok, Ok, Ok!” when I ask him to do something. Imust say that a lot to him! I just love it though …. it makes him seem so grown up!
I’ve loved reading everyone elses’s stories. We have a bunch of little characters around here!
I hope I win! I just love these products, especially the StrollAway. How HANDY!
I just tweeted about this!
my 18 month old holds her nose and shakes her head when she needs a diaper change
My 2 1/2 year old says, “It’s a disaster in here,” when the house needs to be picked up. I guess he has heard his mommy say it a few times.
My 8 month old is now saying, “Mamamama,” which causes me to beam every time! Love the giveaway! Hope I win!
Pamela´s last blog post…I finally made a decision!
My quite agreeable, 2.5 year old son has started saying “sure”. It sounds more like “ssshhhhhhUUUUUUrrr”. Too cute!
My little gut likes to carry around a sheaf of scrap papers. They are his very ” meportant” working. cute!
My little guy misses his older sister when she’s at school, and she misses him. When we go to pick her up, he excitedly says “i missed you!” and she says it back. Very cute at 2 & 4 years old.
When my 3-year old is sad he says “I hold you” instead of “you hold me”.
My 2 1/2 year old sweet pea amazes me every day with something cute and new to say. Sheesh, I must be reading too many Dr. Seuss books. Anyway…two of my favorite things she says is lasterday for yesterday and yesternight for last night.
A cute thing she does lately is that she knows Mama loves to scrapbook and still does not like to smile for the camera. She is meeting me in the middle by smiling with only her eyes. Yep, her mouth stays straight and her eyes squint up a smile. Too funny!
We are just starting the simplicity process and think you have picked wonderful items for your give away!
Lovies,
Kelly and Olivia
Thanks for the chance to win this awesome giveaway!

Molly Piper´s last blog post…What makes it a special Thanksgiving meal for you?
We are within 3 weeks of a new baby brother being born. My 3 yr old son asks to “sit next to” his brother. So, I’ll sit down, he’ll pull my shirt above my belly, and the he’ll lay his arm across “his brother” and gently pat him with his hand. My husband saw it for the first time last night and melted.
Melanie´s last blog post…A Full House
My 2 year old wakes up early and always wants to wake everyone else up, with “Morning Sunshine!” She will ask to wake her baby sister up with “morning sunshine?” My answer is usually “No!” Let the baby sleep
She is also very excited about Christmas and will dance around saying “Mismis, Mismis!”

My favorite thing that my twin 19 month old boys are doing right now is singing. They sing some recognizable songs and I love to hear them sing about Jesus’ love for them but I also thoroughly enjoy when they sing, in their sweet voices, songs that they have made up. It truly makes my day and reminds me how blessed I am to be a mommy.
Becky´s last blog post…Contentment
All of my children have always said “Hold you!” when they want to be held. It’s so precious. I was distraught when my five year old stopped saying it. There are so many other things, but that’s the first thing that popped into my head.
My 3 1/2 yr old nephew recently saw a mini-van in a parking lot and told his mom that he wanted one. My sister-in-law, ever the simple mom, explained that since they only had 2 kids, they didn’t need one. At Thanksgiving dinner yesterday, my nephew announces that his mommy is going to have 2 more babies, Toodles and Kiki, and that they’ll then get a mini-van. When pressed further about the babies, he sighed with exasperation and replied, “Ugh! We don’t have them now, because Mommy hasn’t cooked them yet!
I was driving with my three year old in the backseat when I driver cut me off. I bit my tongue trying not to swear and instead said, “What a turkey!” and my three year old said, “Where, mommy, where is the turkey?” He really truly thought that there was a Thanksgiving turkey in the road!
My two year olds think that their Daddy lives in the computer because we chat with him via Skype while he’s in Iraq. The other day one of them asked where I had gone and my friend in the other room with the girls said I was on the computer. My sweet Maggie said, “Oh, she’s gone to get Daddy out?!?” Too funny!
MaryBeth´s last blog post…Thanksgiving 2008
My youngest is beginning to crawl – right now he looks like a soldier completing a drill.
Alana @ Gray Matters´s last blog post…Patience
My daughter is almost 6 months old, and what I love most about her (right now) is her smile! She’s getting such a personality and she’s a very happy baby. Her smile lights up the room and makes my day.
shannon´s last blog post…For Grandma and Aunt Michelle
The girl has loved books since she first saw one when she was a few days old. We read every night when she was a baby, and read every night now. Today she asked, “Where is that adult Bible that you have? I’m going to read it when I get home.” I tried to explain that it was a hard book, that I’d been reading it for years and hadn’t read all of it yet, but she was undeterred. And she’s sitting on her bed reading it now (she’s 7). I don’t need to win, but it would be great to have a cache of shower presents in the house.
Im a simplenana and EVERYTHING my too little girlies do is adorable!
I cant wait to win this so I can give give give it all away! thanks ahead of time!
My little one has 8 weeks to go before his long anticipated arrival but our favorite game is to give my belly a push when he’s kicking and feeling him push back. Its amazing being pregnant, I can’t wait to meet him!!
My 10-month old makes this clacking noise with his tongue, and right after he does it he giggles, he literally makes himself burst into laughter.
Keana´s last blog post…Happy Thanksgiving!
Our little grandson calls all dogs “Buddy” since that is the name of our dog. It is the clearest word that he can pronounce.
