Fantastic giveaway!

**This giveaway is now closed.

First of all, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your wonderful comments on our stairs! I am so proud of them and it has been a pleasure reading your sweet comments. Thank you so much!

I am SO excited about this fabulous giveaway! I know I say it all the time, but I LOVE my advertisers. Dimples and Dandelions is an online children’s boutique that I swear you are going to fall in love with.

Be prepared. I warned you. ;)

Their selection is like none I’ve ever seen online, or anywhere for that matter. They offer clothing for babies and toddlers, beautiful gifts, unique art, lighting and bedding and SO much more.

I found a few of my favorites just to show you a sampling…

What I love is many of the decor items could easily be used in any room – not just for a kid’s space. I adore each and every one of these rugs:

How fun would those be in a craft room, and office, a bathroom? There are so many possibilities. And if you did use them in a girl’s room, any one of them would work for a nursery or a teen’s room, easy.

The same goes for their fantastic variety of lighting. Of course there’s the cutie patootie stuff like this star lamp, perfect for a baby boy or toddler:

But this beautiful chandelier also work over a desk or craft table too:

There is also an incredible selection of clothing – items I’ve never seen anywhere else!

They actually have cute boy’s clothes. Do you know how hard it is to find CUTE boy clothes? I don’t understand it. I so wish this was still available in the Bub’s size because this Momma would be the bees knees if I got this one:

city_threads_2009_cf_1_258OK, he thinks I’m the bees knees anyway. (At least for now!)

How perfect is this one for Easter?:

And for you ladies with girls, you just better give up now. You’ll just die. How impossibly sweet is this hat?:

There are unique gifts that any new Mommy (or Bub!) would love to have:

The decor items are just lovely. I love the detail on the hanging letters:

And these height charts are so fun – the monkeys!! Oh, the monkeys:

I kept finding more and more I wanted to show you – told you I warned you. This art is so adorable:

There’s also a fantastic selection of furniture:

And last, but certainly not least, their bedding selection is like I’ve never seen!

I want this bedding in my room:

My girlfriend (hey Krista!) is going to DIE when she sees this one – sock monkey bedding:

Seriously? Sock monkeys! They make me smile. (They also have nursery bedding in this as well.)

And their selection also includes bedding that any teen girl would love:

See? Told you! Fantastic!!

Dimples and Dandelions has graciously offered one of you $50 free to use as you wish at their online shop! Yahoo!

You know the deal – two chances to win! First leave a comment here for your first entry. Let’s make these comments an extra fun read -- share the funniest thing a little person in your life has said. (If you don’t have kids, no worries – you don’t have to share. It’s just for fun.) I can’t wait to read these!

For your second entry, go to Dimples and Dandelions and check out their products. Once you find an item you love, come back and let us know in another comment.

This giveaway will be open until Friday at noon, eastern time.

I’ll start it off – the Bub says things that have us rolling all the time but it’s still mostly stuff only Mommy and Daddy “get.” ;) So instead, I’ll share something Stink Eye Sister said as a child. (She used to be so darn cute.) She used to pronounce Cosmopolitan magazine as “Cos-mop-eh-light-in.” We didn’t correct her for years and would laugh hysterically every time she said it. (Years!) I think she was still saying that way as a teenager. Ha! Love it.

Have fun, good luck and enjoy browsing!
