Today I checked in to the hotel with lots of swag in tow. I was so excited to see the faces of blogging buddies again. Oh, oh, oh! Do you guys know that I won a $500 gift certificate to Macy’s from Retail Me Not?! It came just in time for BlogHer!
With so much going on, I decided not to bring Boogie. There’s absolutely no way I can be where I’m supposed to be, hand out swag (my choice to do so), smile and be sane – even with help. So as much as I wanted everyone to meet the baby behind this blog, he will be driving daddy crazy without me chilling at home with daddy.
Our house has been a swagalicious warehouse for months. I took on the duty of storing the swag for Extraordinary Mothers. It’s the least I could do since I haven’t been posting over there.
Here’s a peek at how our house aka Toddler Paradise looked before today. Dance, you know you want to.
I will try to keep my Campbell’s roller bag filled with swag. Those who bum rush me for a flamingo, hibiscus, or palm tree mini tote of goodies will have a chance to win prizes.
I want to send a special thanks to Kellogg’s, Betty Lou’s, Wet Ones, Earth Baby Organics, Secret Recipes For The Modern Wife, Rejoice! Body Care, Nature’s Baby Organics and Brothers-All-Natural. Note: There may also be some extra fillers inside, businesses that I love to promote, and leftovers from the Extraordinary Mothers swag. Waste not want not!
Also, a GINORMOUS thanks to Walmart who made it possible for me to attend both BlogHer Business and BlogHer conferences. I would be at home shattering dishes crying my eyes out without their sponsorship!!
If you can’t make it to BlogHer, it’s ok. If you are going without a sponsor, it’s ok. If you have a little anxiety bubblin’ up inside, it’s ok.
Overwhelmed with parties? Let Kirtsy help you.
Thanks for the BlogHer@Home mention!
I hope you have a fabulous time at BlogHer!
I hope you have a great time at Blogher. I’ll be there next year.
In case no one told you, you are nuts! I can’t even imagine what would happen if I was to guard all that swag… Those Fiber One bar things would most definitely be gone, I know that for sure! I have those Wet Ones wipes and I absolutely love them! My partner’s two girls are a little OCD when it comes to hygiene so any time we hit the park, they spend about 10 minutes in the car afterward wiping their faces, hands, arms, legs, and feet off until they are satisfied with their cleanliness. Hope you are having a fantastic time at BlogHer!
