Sling and Swaddle


I read about a contest on a blog put on my Miracle Blanket and HotSlings, and decided to enter.

Here is the info from their site...

Moms throughout the U.S. and Canada are encouraged to submit pitches between May 1st and 15th to be one of the 30 moms selected. Individuals must have a baby between the age of newborn and 3 months old. Submissions will include photos, a quick survey and a 200 word write-up. Representatives from Miracle Blanket and Hotslings will select the top
30 moms based on criteria to include visual creativity, writing creativity, overall writing style, uniqueness of family, location, story, enthusiasm, etc.

I WAS SELECTED AS ONE OF THE 30 MOMS!!!! I should be receiving 2 miracle blankets and this sling in the mail in the next few weeks. They picked me even knowing that baby boy may not arrive until the 5th. I am very excited to be a part of this competition.

This is where ALL of YOU come into play...

Each mom selected will be provided a Hotslings carrier and two Miracle Blankets, as well as the necessary parameters and custom Twitter accounts with “Journey” branded backgrounds. Links will then be listed on the host website at www.SlingandSwaddleJourney.com. The competition begins June 1st as moms compete by micro-blogging daily about their journeys in motherhood. Daily features must include usage and experiences with the Hotslings carrier and Miracle Blanket as well as weekly photos. Representatives from Miracle Blanket and Hotslings will select the winning mom based on select criteria to include number of followers, creativity, collective daily average hits, etc. Moms will be encouraged to use their own personal blogs to increase visitors.

What's in it for me you ask... The chance to win all of this!!!!

Valued at over $2,000, the grand prize includes a feature in Pregnancy & Newborn Magazine Online along with gift certificates and products from Miracle Blanket, Hotslings, Babies”R”Us, Medela, Diapers.com, Patricia Ann Designs, Dr. Harvey Karp’s The Happiest Baby DVD series, Avon and the list continues to grow.

Running after the heart of the Father. Seeking His face in All things. Walking His will out in my life. These are the desires of my heart. Along the way I am a wife and mom who wants to capture memories that will last a life time.
