Preggie Pops Review/GIVEAWAY

Almost every pregnant woman experiences nausea and morning sickness during their pregnancy. For me this has been true both of my pregnancies and I hated ever moment of it. This pregnancy my nausea has been a bit worst then my last, to the point where I did not even want to get out of bed.

So THREE LOLLIES to the rescue. Yes....the folks over at Three Lollies are responsible for PREGGIE POPS and PREGGIE DROPS, my lifesavers. Besides being so yummy they really are quite effective. They really helped me get that yucky nausea feeling to subside.

My favorite flavor was Green Apple....it is so mouth watering. Oh and Ryan's favorite was Sour Lemon...yes he is not pregnant but he wanted to try what mommy was having. LOL!

Preggie Pops and Drops are naturally flavored with essential oils, Preggie Pops and are meant to reduce nausea in pregnant women. Three Lollies also produces Queasy Pops/Drops for use with motion sickness and chemotherapy that work in the same way!





For your Nausea need pregnant or not stop by THREE LOLLIES and order yours today!

Early Childhood Education – Acquiring Sign Language (GUEST POST)


One of the keys to surviving in a tilted economic system in which opportunities to achieve a decent standard of living will be limited is versatility – and the ability to communicate articulately in a variety of ways with the widest possible audience. This includes bilingual ability as well as the ability to communicate in non-verbal ways for the benefit of the disabled – primarily the deaf.

At the same time, a growing shortage of qualified interpreters fluent in American Sign Language has led to more career opportunities – and if current trends continue, it's likely that skilled ASL interpreters will have little problem securing lucrative employment in a society where such a commodity is destined to be in short supply.

Signing Before They Can Speak

A great deal of research has clearly demonstrated that the early years – ages 2 to five – are the best time to educate children in different modes of communication and language. This goes beyond the spoken word (though it is an optimal time for children to learn a second language); many young children have an aptitude for signing as well.

This is not as odd as you may think. As you know, many indigenous peoples around the world,
including American Indian nations, have used sign language for centuries to facilitate communication with other tribes with whom they do not share a language. Some paleontologists and anthropologists theorize that Neanderthals – who apparently lacked the vocal mechanism to produce many spoken words – depended a great deal upon hand gestures to communicate.

In fact, recent research suggests that sign language is innate. An article published in the Boulder Daily Camera in 2003 presented strong evidence that babies as young as six months old communicate with their hands:

"...by 6 to 7 months, babies can remember a sign. At eight months, children can begin to imitate gestures and sign single words. By 24 months, children can sign compound words and full sentences. They say sign language reduces frustration in young children by giving them a means to express themselves before they know how to talk." (Glarion, 2003)

The author also cites study funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development demonstrating that young children who are taught sign language at an early age actually develop better verbal skills as they get older. The ability to sign has also helped parents in communicating with autistic children; one parent reports that "using sign language allowed her to communicate with her [autistic] son and minimized his frustration...[he now] has an advanced vocabulary and excels in math, spelling and music" (Glarion, 2003).

The Best Time To Start

Not only does early childhood education in signing give pre-verbal youngsters a way to communicate, it can also strengthen the parent-child bond – in addition to giving children a solid foundation for learning a skill that will serve them well in the future. The evidence suggests that the best time to start learning ASL is before a child can even walk – and the implications for facilitating the parent-child relationship are amazing.

Halloween Window Cling Set GIVEAWAY

CLOSED


Luvy Bug Designs sprung up from a need for cute wall decorations from the owners daughter's room that didn't require making holes into the walls and could be easily removed without having to repaint the entire room.

She wanted a simple bugs/frogs theme and just couldn't find what she was looking for, so she made my own and decided to offer my creations to others. She found that her designs can be easily translated to other mediums, so she expanded to fabric appliques, scrapbooking embellishments, window clings, pop up sponges and charms.

Recently she have added hair accessories and bow holders to the mix. Although bow holders are something new she is offering to others, they are not new to their home as she made her daughter's the moment they moved into their home. Her daughter finally grew some hair and really enjoys her accessories, so it made sense to add those to the mix.

Although she has an extensive variety of designs, the majority of her work is custom orders so she encourage people to contact me if there is something they are looking for but can't find.They love a challenge and enjoy what they do.

She has found being a stay at home mom/business owner is more rewarding than she could have ever imagined.



Luvy Bug Designs is giving away a Halloween Window Cling Set

The window cling is a set of 18 Halloween shapes. 4 Ghosts, 2 Boo signs, 4 pumpkins, 4 faces, 2 spiders and 2 spider webs. Small ghosts measure just under 3 in tall and just over 2 in wide. Large ghost measures about 3.75 in tall and just under 2.5 in wide. Boo sign measures about 3.25 in tall and just over 4 in wide. Tall pumpkin is just under 2.75 in tall and just over 1.75 in wide. Short pumpkin is just under 2.25 in tall and just under 2.75 in wide. Spider is just under 1.75 in tall and just under 2.75 in wide. Web is just under 3.75 in tall and just under 4 in wide.

Laziness......I have the bug!

Before Ryan was born 18 months ago I would decorate my home for all holidays. I would go all out! It had not hit me till today that I have not done any of that lately. How sad is that?

I am a holiday "freak" and the laziness bug has hit me. I must add also since I found out I was pregnant I have been even lazier....I just feel so BLAH. You would think with a toddler around he doesn't let me be lazy...WRONG! This lil boy LOVES to sleep and so mommy joins him. LOL!

But, it is time to say GOODBYE to LAZINESS and get my butt in action!

So here are my goals:

1. Decorate for Halloween!

2. Get pics of Ryan for my blog to share with everyone.

3. Get a belly shot once a month (because it is growing fast!)

4. Get my new website for my boutique up.

5. Get new items up for my boutique.

I think that is a good list for now.

Anyone else have the bug and goals to get rid of it???

By the way, I hope everyone has a great LABOR DAY WEEKEND! :)
