Wife and Mommy!

Wife and Mommy, check your email, and congrats!

I got so busy with the end of school, our week away, and everything else going on, that I totally forgot about the contest!  Lucky for you, you still have time to enter!  And it’s so easy!  Just subscribe to my blog (you’ll get an email whenever there’s a new post – and you’ll be the first to hear about new contests or specials!) and then come back here and leave a comment and you’ll be entered to win.  The prize is a Starbucks gift card – just think how nice an icy frappuccino would be in this heat!  Hurry though – the contest ends (for real this time!)  on July 11 at midnight.

On Monday, I threw a little contest into the snapshot post, and now it’s time to announce the winner!  And the winner is Gwen!  Not only did she get almost all of them right, she was FAST!  She missed the dinosaur at the bottom, but she named the plastic toys in his bed too (yes, my kid sleeps with everything), and she got the most right, so she’s the winner!  Gwen, I’ve got a $10 starbucks card for you.  Check your email.

Just in case you’re curious, here’s the line-up:

He’s got close to 40 stuffed animals all together, but we try to limit how many he can sleep with at once, since the toddler bed is only so big!

And now, another contest!  Same prize, different way to enter.  On the toolbar above, you’ll see a category marked “Pages”.  Under that, you’ll see one that says “Subscribe“.  Go to that page, subscribe for email updates when a new post is made, and then come back to this post and leave a comment here stating that you’ve subscribed (or, if you’re already subscribed to the blog, just comment here and tell me so).  Next tuesday, I’ll pick a comment at random, and that person will also receive a $10 starbucks gift card!

Contest extended for another week – you still have time to enter!
