Will be receiving a copy of "The Baby Gizmo Buying Guide"

The Baby Gizmo Buying Guide **Giveaway**

The Baby Gizmo Buying Guide is the perfect gift for an expecting parent and a must have for new moms! Heather Maclean with Holly Schultz will teach you not only how to buy baby products but, advice on whether you really need a product, when to buy it, and how long your baby will use it.
Products are rated based on real life and fall somewhere between 'don't need' and 'must have'. After each section you will find a place to make notes of model name/manufacturer, store/price, your impressions, and grade. All of this will help keep you organized to be a smarter baby product shopper.


The Baby Gizmo Buying Guide was designed to go to the store with you. It is like having your best friend (the one with four kids who knows exactly what makes a good high chair, not the one with no kids that still gets to spend all of her paycheck on shoes) in your back pocket.


**Giveaway**

Would you like to own your own copy of The Baby Gizmo Buying Guide? To enter, just leave a comment on this post with your name and some way for me to contact you if you win (e-mail address/ blog link). I will be randomly selecting 2 winners Wednesday March 26th.

What to do with old Magazines and Books?

I am a magazine junkie however, I do not buy magazines. There are so many free magazines out there, as I have previously posted here, here, here, here, here, and here just to name a few. I have been sharing them at work by leaving them in the break rooms for others to read after I am finished with them but, I want to do something different with them.

I decided to load them up tomorrow and take them to a couple of Assisted Living and Nursing Home facilities.

There are other places that welcome used magazines. Girl Scout troops, Sunday school classes, day care centers, and elementary school classes all use them for arts and crafts. Most homeless shelters, domestic violence shelters, after school programs, and senior centers would love to see you show up bearing magazines and books.

Do you have old magazines, books, or any thing else you could donate?

The love of books

I saw these (LightWedge) on Oprah right before Christmas and I WANT ONE! I love reading when I go to bed but, I hate when I get just about ready to fall asleep and I have to turn the light off. I am wide awake then and ready to read some more. Also, the perfect gift for any avid reader. We travel quite a bit and our trips are on average 6hrs each way. My son has a book light that he reads with but, I am thinking this would also be great for him to use when we are traveling.
The perfect book light A revolutionary new book light for nighttime reading. Patented LightWedge technology directs all the light only on the page you are reading, without bothering someone sleeping next to you. The larger-sized LightWedge Original is ideal for hardcover books and large paperbacks. Whether reading in bed, reading on a plane, or reading in a car, the LightWedge book light is the perfect accessory for all readers and an ideal gift for travelers. 40 hours of light from 4 AAA batteries (not included) Measures 6.75” x 9.25” and weighs only 8.5 oz. with batteries.

I am also getting this book The Sister Knot by Terri Apter, for my daughters to read. (Of course, I have to after they read it on here)

Why We Fight, Why We’re Jealous, and Why We’ll Love Each Other No Matter What
Breaking new ground in women’s psychology, an exploration of the intricacy, friction, and love in the bonds between sisters.

If anybody has a boat loving husband, or anybody else for that matter like I do, you need this Free subscription to Go Boating Magazine. Of course 2 boats are not enough...we always have to be on the lookout for new and improved.

Elle Decore Magazine (free) I love getting decorating ideas from this magazine.

And a funny one... Homer Simpson Bumper Sticker
