Snorg Tees at Fairy Blog Mother

I like Snorg Tees. :) They make me laugh. I can totally picture my DH in the "Don't Act Like You're Not Impressed" or the "If you find this on the ground, it's probably because WE'RE GOING STREAKING!"
Hahaha.
Anyway. You can enter to win one of Snorg's amusing tees at Fairy Blog Mother. You know you want to. Ends April 12.

The Ultimate Blog Party has begun!

Click the link on the sidebar or the banner above to check out the Ultimate Blog Party! There are prizes and a chance to virtually meet bloggers from all over the place. It runs for a whole week, starting today, the 20th of March!

While you're here let me introduce myself. I'm a work-at-home wannabe-mom living in Canada with my DH and my DDog! When I say wannabe, we're TTC so hopefully I can join the mom club soon. Working at home is great - no commute! - but it is very distracting with all the great blogs out there to read! I really like meeting other women and making friends in the virtual world. I recently started this blog, mostly to provide a source for Canadian women, new parents in particular, to find bloggy giveaways that are open to Canadians. I hadn't come across such a thing in my wandering online so decided to start one. I hope you enjoy your visit here and find something interesting! And have fun at the UBP 2009!

If you're just discovering UBP, check out the prizes here! There is a separate list for prizes for International as well as a list for prizes for US and Canadian entrants. Some of the prizes I was most excited about unfortunately are on the US only list - hey sponsors, if you're reading, Canadians get excited about prizes too! We're not that far away!

Some of the party prizes and what my top picks would be if I win...
1. USC 35 - a Hotslings pouch-style baby sling and nursing cover combo.
2. USC 66 - $50.00 Gift Certificate to the online maternity and baby boutique, Madre Gear.
3. USC 11 - See Kai Run baby/toddler shoes

Beyond that, I also would be very happy to win (all USC) 3, 12, 26, 46 and 55, in no particular order!

Fat Quarters on Daffodillhill Too

For any fabric aficionados out there, and I know there are lots of them, Daffodilhill Too is giving away four fat quarters from her Etsy Shop! Really cute prints. I could see these making great quilt pieces or little zippered pouches...well, the possibilities are endless.
She draws the winner tomorrow, March 20, so get over there to enter!

James Patterson audiobook from At Home With Books!

I listen to audiobooks every single day during the week, while I'm working. I have a great job that allows me to do this! So I go through a lot of audiobooks. I can't tell you how nice it is to be read to while you get things done at work. It's great!

I usually hit the library for these but here is a chance to win Run For Your Life by James Patterson and Michael Ledwidge on cd! I have read most of Patterson's Alex Cross series and I really enjoy them. Enter on the At Home With Books blog for your chance to win, ends April 2nd. This would also be great for summer road trips (maybe not if you have little kids in the car though).

Miracle Blanket

The Miracle Industries Miracle (swaddling) blanket I can't endorse this through personal experience (yet) but I've heard great things and read lots of positive reviews. Apparently it helps baby sleep, always a good thing for exhausted parents.

I actually had a random stranger enthuse over these to me when I was out crib shopping!

FuzziBunz at Mommies with Cents!

Mommies with Cents is hosting a giveaway for a $50 gift certificate to FuzziBunz! FuzziBunz makes cloth diapering systems (that sounds complicated, I don't think it really is!). These diapers are not only more economical and environmentally friendly than disposables, they are easy to use and stylin'! Daily entry, ends March 25th!

Jack and Lily shoes

Jack and Lily shoes come in some great designs. These zebras are cute - I hadn't noticed them the last time I checked out Jack and Lily!

See Kai Run at A Family Completed!

One more chance to win a pair of baby/toddler shoes of your choice from See Kai Run's regular line or Smaller line! Head over to A Family Completed by the 1st of April for your chance to win! Lots of extra entry opportunities too - though there are a lot of entries already for this giveaway!

Cottonseed basics at BabyLuxe

Cottonseed has solid basics (onesies, tees and pants) for tots. Enter to win your choice of basics (they have an amazing range of 24 colours) over at BabyLuxe! Enter by the 24th, I think, as the draw is on the 25th!

Naturepedic mattress for baby at My Organized Chaos

You may have heard of Naturepedic for mattresses for grown-ups, but did you know they also make crib mattresses, changing pads and cradle/bassinet pads? Naturepedic mattresses are organic, hypo-allergenic, phthalate-free and super comfy. Naturepedic and My Organized Chaos are giving away the 'No-Compromise' Organic Cotton Ultra crib mattress. Enter by the 28th of March!

Win $15 at Threadless Tees from Your Mama Reviews!

Think $15 doesn't sound like much? Think again! You can get THREE tees from Threadless in their $5 sale, on until the 23rd. And this giveaway from Your Mama Reviews for $15 is on until Friday March 20th, so if you win you have all weekend to browse and buy! I adore the Take a Hike design. Five bucks!! I think even if I don't win I'll be all over this one.
They have kids', men's and women's shirts!

See Kai Run at Mummy Deals!

Mummy Deals is giving away a pair of the winner's choice from the Smaller or See Kai Run lines! Head on over by the 22nd of March to enter!

Green to Grow bottles at Your Mama Reviews

Your Mama Reviews has paired up with The Soft Landing to give away two Green to Grow bottles and a package of nipples to a lucky reader! Green to Grow bottles are BPA-free and awfully cute. They have a regular mouth and a wide mouth version, and nipples are available with different flow rates for different ages. Nice! Enter by the 24th of March.

Baby Grins Giveaway at My Moms View

BabyGrins is another Canadian store featuring baby and toddler products. They carry Boon items, baby carriers and diaper bags/accessories, some lovely quilts and lots of other stuff - feeding, bathing, sleeping and toys, products for mom and dad - they even have a resource page with information about baby sign language programs across Canada! Definitely a site to look at for Canadian moms and moms-to-be.
BabyGrins is giving away $25 to a lucky My Moms View reader! Enter by the 31st, draw on April 1st.

Stainless steel sippy at Glimpse

I would not have expected a company called Better Baby Bums to carry stainless steel sippy bottles, but I learned that they carry all sorts of good stuff beyond diapers - "from diapering to feeding and everything in between". Plus it's a Canadian company! One thing you should check out while you're there: the many options for cloth and compostable, chlorine-free diapers.
Glimpse is hosting a giveaway for a Watergeeks 12oz stainless steel sippy; enter by the 25th! While this would be great for kids it would also be great for adults on the go.

Spoiled Mama skin care at Life Starring Ellie & Eve

Expecting or afterward, pregnancy can have some unfortunate effects on the belly skin! Stretch marks are pretty common and hard to avoid. Spoiled Mama aims to help with those marks with their skin care line just for bumps. And Life Starring Ellie and Eve is hosting a giveaway (as part of her awesome March Maternity Jamboree) for a "Best of Bump" sampler set, which includes:

• 1/2 oz. Tummy Butter
• 1 oz Bump Gloss
• 1 oz Extreme Mama Creme
• 10% coupon for Future Purchase

Sounds like a great little treat! I also love that it's vegan-friendly.

Trendy Tadpole at Jamie's Precious Peas

Win your choice of shirt or onesie from Trendy Tadpole! This is not just a baby giveaway; they have women's shirts too! I like this Japanese Bird onesie, but it was a hard choice. There are some great designs!

This giveaway is hosted by Jamie's Precious Peas and ends on March 26th.

By the way, if you are a US blogger, check out the Trendy Tadpole site for an opportunity to receive a free shirt by blogging about TT. No such offer for Canadians.

CozyCare Cape at Parents Gear

One more chance to win a CozyCare Cape - or mat, or cap, your choice - from Spa Time Baby! This time it's Parents Gear hosting the giveaway. These are brilliant for bath time. I can't wait to receive my CozyCare Mat in Ducky Bubbles that is coming my way, and I really do want the matching Cape! Maybe I'll be lucky - or maybe you will! Enter by the 22nd of March!

Here's your chance to win a ring sling from Maya Wrap. This time it's one from their Organic line - I love the Aqua Sea Glass sling, how pretty! Head over to Mommies with Cents to enter - daily entry, ends the 23rd!

DaBib at A Psych Mommy

When you go over to A Psych Mommy's site, you will have to check out how cute her little 'Bean' is in his DaBib! What a sweetie. Anyway, she is hosting a giveaway for a DaBib. These look like really well-thought out bibs with features like waterproof backing, a crumb catcher, and a neckline that prevents spills down the neck. Enter by the 26th!
