Hottest Holiday Toys of 2008

The blogosphere is buzzing with gift guides, and Christmas Countdown Giveaways! If you haven't seen what I'm talking about, you must be living under a rock.

I love browsing the gift guides, seeing the various styles and tastes of each mom and especially reading opinions if they've used the toys/clothes/books/etc with their kids. Being a soon-to-be new mom, having honest mom reviews and resources for baby prep has been invaluable. A big 'thank you' to all you mom bloggers!

Today I read a post titled the Hottest Holiday Toys of 2008, and I thought they were right on target! At least, many of the toys fit with my taste and preferences. There were toys for the older kids and younger set, wooden/eco-friendly options, and some tried & true classic favorites.

I definitely encourage you to visit Mamanista's blog and check out her Hottest Toy guide. And while you're there, she's got a Christmas countdown happening, with lots of great giveaways! Happy shopping.

A cyber-shower! Fun

Sarah, from Sassyfrazz, is having baby #4 - awesome! And Pamela Kramer, from Happy Panda (love them!), is hosting a cyber-baby shower for her. I love cyber-parties. Ok, ok. I love ALL parties!!


I'll be playing a few of the shower games, and you can too (click on the cyber baby shower button above)! In addition to it being fun, you can also win prizes. Everyone loves prizes.

Game #1: Because we're due in January, I can only offer this recent picture of my husband and our bump... not sure that it counts, but I thought I would share anyway. It's my favorite and we were having such fun playing with the bump and bonding! I may be biased (ahem), but I think it's very sweet. xoxo

Game #2: Guess the birth weight... I'm going to say 9 pounds 2 ounces.

And because I have no play-doh (I'm sure that's going to change soon!), I'm going to skip game #3. But I cant wait to see the other entries!

My top prizes would be, in no particular order: See Kai Run, Paperlicious, Happy Panda, Cute Slings and Baby Banz.

Congratulations Sarah!
