Won: Nail Polish

I finally won a giveaway from one of my favorite nail polish blogs, The TraceFace Philes. She has tons of giveaways and great posts! If you love nail polish, then you should follow this blog for sure! Not to mention, I am so excited about this because I have been wanting Pumpkin Spice since I started seeing it in blogs back in August. I have been stalking drugstores since then, but unfortunately I don't think it's coming to my area.

Won: Hearts For Hearts Doll

I won a cute Hearts for Hearts Doll from Mama Nibbles. I know my daughter will love this, since she's really getting interested in dolls lately.



[Giveaway Post][Winner Announcement]

This week so far I have received a few of my prizes. On Monday, I got my nail art stickers from JOBY Nail Art. They are really cute, black, white, and pink cats and also little kitty paw prints.

Tuesday I received my box of Protein bars, which I thought were not going to be good, but to my surprise, they weren't bad at all. The kind I got tastes almost like a Twix bar, but without so much sugar.

And, today I received the tutu and hair ties that I won. Mallory loves the tutu and calls it 'Princess'. lol. She was really mad that I put it up, but I want to save it for her birthday party. And the hair bands are really great. They are made with thick, sturdy material and have held her hair up all day so far. Which is a miracle. Even with normal elastic hair ties, they usually slide out and I have to fix her hair at least twice a day.

I haven't been winning quite as much this month as I did last. I don't know if it's the sites that I am entering on or if it's just a dry spell. And I don't think I have been entering quite as many since I started this blog...I have still been entering, but also spending a lot of time working on blogging. I guess I will see at the end of the month how my percentages were effected. Cuz I'm a big math dork like that.

Won: Mechatar Robot




From Musings From A SAHM, a cool interactive robot that you can play with and also hook up to your computer to 'train' it to battle other robots in the series. Very neat.

This week I received my bag of cocoa (yummy, my daughter is obsessed with it), Shrinky Dinks, Spin Brush, StoPain Spray, Safari Towels, False Eyelashes, and the $25 gift card to Licorice International by email.

I would have liked to take a pic of all these things together, but just never really got around to it. Maybe next week I will just do one weekly post of the things I received for that week. I am still working on getting a good routine for blogging without overwhelming myself, spending TOO much time on the computer, or not enough time to have a worthwhile blog.
