Ergobaby Doll Carrier Review and Giveaway

Ergobaby
I love ergobaby, they are a quality company that carries beautiful items to help with all of your baby wearing needs. Ergobaby's ergonomic design is what gives you the ability to wear your baby longer. Not only do they have great carriers for you little one, but they have carriers for your little one to carry his or her "baby", how cute is that! The child-sized Ergobaby Doll Carrier is perfect for toting beloved dolls and other toy friends and is a great gift for a new big sister or brother. Kids are always wanting to be like mom or dad, what a great gift. The Doll Carrier can be worn in the front or back position and is made of 100% cotton.

The power to Choose Energy #sponsored

 
It’s the season of savings and everyone is surfing the internet to find the hottest deals. I bet you never thought that you save big by shopping for your energy provider! At this time of year saving money on your energy bills is a must. There are so many extra expenses, from your heating bill that seems to skyrocket in the winter, all of the extra energy it takes for things like your Christmas tree and outdoor lights, to all of your holiday shopping expenses. I don't know about you but I would like to spend my money elsewhere, paying high prices on for your energy source when you don't have to seems like a waste.

Christmas Cranberry Walnut Bread



I'm always looking for easy recipes for quick breads, especially this time of year. A loaf of a yummy quick bread makes a wonderful homemade gift, or as a treat for yourself at home with a cup of tea or coffee.

This recipe for Cranberry Walnut Bread is a favorite of mine. The cranberries have a delicious tarty taste, and the orange zest in it gives it a hint of citrus.

Now Open: Elinor Friend Playground at the San Francisco Zoo




For my son's 4th b
irthday we were looking for something special to do. For his first birthday we took him to the Sacramento Zoo and his love of giraffes began there. We wanted to experience a large zoo with more animals and attractions to see. The San Francisco Zoo was the perfect answer for us. We had a wonderful time at the Zoo and we were able to have a preview of the new Elinor Friend Playground. The new playground has 3 different themed playgrounds that are each unique and offer different play experiences.
