VACATION, GIVEAWAY

Did you stop by my blog because of my cleverness in comma usage or perhaps because you thought I was giving away a vacation?

Ha-ha.

I'm not giving away a vacation. I'm going on vacation - comma - I'm having a giveaway to bribe you all to keep visiting while I'm not posting anything new.

While I might not be at the ocean, we're going to an island, so heck, it's going to feel like an ocean (minus the freezing water) and even though we will not be seeing sea turtles, I'm going to be giving one away.


I received an email from Baby Bella sending a great list of 10 unique baby gifts. I opened the email and knew that I must have the Twilight Sea Turtle. First off, the thing lights up, with stars and a moon, on your ceiling. Secondly, it's a sea turtle and if your child knows Nemo as a BFF as Wyatt does, who screams 'Righteous!' any time we exit off an on/off ramp, than you would have to have it too.

I adore this thing. If either of my children were afraid of the dark, then this would be perfect, because it has a 45 minute timer, enough time for them to fall asleep - I would hope, geesh. I also love that it has real constellations projected. The storybook and the endanger species that light up are just bonuses on this great toy. Oh yes, I got a little teary eyed with the Sea Turtle adoption page reminding me of my Cabbage Patch years.

So stick with me, leave me some love. Follow me (meaning going to your dashboard and adding my blog) and get another entry. I've got one Twilight Sea Turtle to giveaway.

Sorry, I don't have a vacation to give away.

I'm such a tease.

Giveaway Closed - chosen by random.org the winner is #11 Kristine

That looks very cool.

Would it help if I told you my almost 3 year old said "Wow, Momma...Wow...pretty lady"

(alright I added the pretty lady part but still :)


Have a great vacation!

Love, your blogger that has a page that takes ten zillion years to load on your computer. :)

I've always thought they were cool, and we're starting to have fears in this house, so I think it would help.

Hope you have a good vacation! I hear from May @ Cribsheet that I'll be seeing you as a fellow Minnesotan at BlogHer.

kristine said...

How fun that you're giving one of these away! We have wanted one for quite some time. Gosh, I think it was before Graycen was even born that I had been eyeing them. I had even considered the lamb that they make (or made)
I hope I win! Thanks for the opportunity.
