We had beautiful weather all last week.  I made sure to take Hailey outside every day to enjoy it because I knew it wouldn’t last.  And I was right- the cold weather is back and the snow is on its way.  So, I have been able to wear my fabulous Lands’ End Weatherly coat and I love it!

How would you like to win a Lands’ End coat?  I thought so.  It’s pretty hard to turn down something as great as a Lands’ End coat.  The winner of this giveaway will get to pick between the Women’s ThermaCheck 100 Half-zip Pullover and the Women’s Sherpa Fleece Pullover.  Both of those look really fabulous, so I know it will be hard for the winner to decide which one to pick.

Here is what you need to do for a chance to win:

• Vote for me over at the Velveeta Casserole Challenge- I’m the one all the way on the right- Livin’ With Me and my Meat Lovers Pizza Casserole.
• Come back here and leave me a comment letting me know that you voted for me and tell me which coat you would prefer if you win (you can change your mind later if you want to.)
• You can vote every day. If you vote each day you can leave me a comment every time you vote for an extra chance to win.

I was contacted by Kiss My Face a little while ago and asked if I would like to check out their new kids line of products.  I agreed that I would love to check out their products and I expected to get just a small sampling of what they offer.  But instead- I got all of those things in the picture up above.  WOW!  And guess what- we (Hailey and I) LOVE the Kiss My Face kids line.  Their products are all natural and they smell so incredibly good!

This next section is taken right from the Kiss My Face website to give you an idea of the values that they base their products on:

“At Kiss My Face, we believe that nature creates the best ingredients. We believe that it’s our job to combine these natural and organic ingredients in body care formulations that are potent and effective to make you look good and feel good. We strive to bring you the best nature has to offer—never at the expense of our planet, employees or values—but with honesty, humor and style. A retailer once told us, ‘Kiss My Face puts a smile in the aisle.’”

And you know what I love about the Kiss My Face children’s line?  You know when you use their products that you will not find any artificial colors, unncecessary chemicals, or animal ingredients.  Plus there is no testing done on animals.

So how would like to win a set of these fabulous Kiss My Face products for kids valued at approximately $70?

Last April I had the opportunity to check out a beautiful hand stamped necklace from Alli’s Originals.  You can read my full review here if you’d like.  Or if you don’t have time to click and read the whole review, here is part of my review: 

Alli is a stay at home mom who has been making jewelry for the last nine years.  And I love the idea of supporting other moms by buying the special products they make.

The jewelry is hand-stamped by Alli and each piece is uniquely made for you.  You know you won’t see anyone else walking around with the same thing as you.  Here is a picture of some of Alli’s work, isn’t that just gorgeous? In order to see how amazing her work is, you have to stop over at her site to see some more examples of what she can do, so please go check out Alli’s Originals.

If you’re looking for an idea for someone for Christmas I would recommend checking out Alli’s work.  She does a fabulous job!!

Since I loved the necklace so much that Alli made for me (I wear it every single day) I asked Alli if she’d like to do a giveaway for one of my readers.  And she graciously said yes!  She has offered to give of one of you a $40 gift certificate.

What do you need to do for a chance to win the $40 gift certificate?  You need to do these two things to qualify:

• Visit Alli’s Originals and look around.  Then come back here and leave me a comment letting me know something you saw on her site.  It can be a product or just something you noticed while looking around her site.
• Vote for me over at the Velveeta Casserole Challenge- I’m the one all the way on the right- Livin’ With Me and my Meat Lovers Pizza Casserole.  Make sure to mention in your comment that you voted for me.  You can vote every day. If you vote each day you can leave me a comment every time you vote for an extra chance to win.

Today is the start of a fantastic new giveaway.  And not only that, but the start of a whole bunch of fantastic giveaways.  I will be having a new giveaway starting every couple of days now through the end of November.  You are not going to want to miss any of the exciting prizes I have lined up thanks to all of the our fabulous sponsors.

So, for todays giveaway- Hailey and I had the chance to review a That’s Me on TV DVD.  We received this DVD at the beginning of this month and Hailey has watched it every single day since then.  As a former pre-kindergarten teacher and a mommy I can tell you that this is the best DVD for teaching the alphabet that I have ever seen.  And I’ve seen a lot. 

There is a little story for each letter of the alphabet and the main character of each story is Hailey.  And what child does not love to see herself on TV?  Hailey loves it and points to herself and says, “That’s Hailey!” 

Here is a sample of the letter T:

See?  Isn’t that cute!  There is a little story like for every letter.  And not only does this DVD teach your child the alphabet but it teaches counting, colors, shapes, problem solving, creativity and so much more.  I can not say enough about how much I absolutely love this DVD- I very highly recommend this the That’s Me on TV DVD.  This would be a perfect idea for a Christmas present for any child.  And I’m not sure if I mentioned this already, but this is the best DVD for teaching the alphabet that I have ever seen.

So, how would you like to win your own That’s Me on TV DVD (valued at $29.95)?  I thought so.

Here’s what you need to do for a chance to win:

• Go to That’s Me on TV and look around their site.
• Come back here and leave me a comment letting me know something you saw on their site.  It can be another product they sell or just something you noticed while you were visiting.

Want some extra chances to win?  Leave me an additional comment for each of the following things letting me know what you did:

• Vote for me over at the Velveeta Casserole Challenge and then leave me a comment letting me know you voted for me.  Just click on the link Velveeta Casserole Challenge. Then vote for me- I’m the one all the way on the right- Livin’ With Me and my Meat Lovers Pizza Casserole.  (Please, please, please vote for me- it will only take a couple of seconds.)

• When you purchase your That’s Me on TV  DVD, which I know you will want to do if you do not win, you can get an extra copy of your DVD for free (that’s a $9.95 value!).  To do so- all you have to do is type in “Heard from Melanie” in the comment box when you check out.  This offer is good until December 31, 2008- perfect timing for your Christmas shopping.

This giveaway will end on November 5th at 11:59 pm EST.  A winner will be chosen via random.org on November 6th and will be notified by email.  See all my giveaway rules here.

Hailey and I were given the chance to check out some merchandise from Bija Baby and we both loved their products.  Hailey received a couple of shirts that she has enjoyed wearing.

Here is Hailey modeling the Natural Princess shirt for you.

Hailey loves princesses so this shirt is a definite favorite.  This shirt is also a natural organic only made shirt and it is the softest shirt I have ever felt.  I would love to have one in my size to wear!

Bija Baby was started by Barbara Christensen and according to the Bija Baby site,

“Bija Baby is the fun creative line of apparel brought to you by Bija. Bija is the Sanskrit work for ’seed’. When we planted the seed for our company - we saw the future in the eyes of our baby. The Bija Baby line showcases our favorite designs. Fun designs, fun embellishments and always personalization for your creative child. And of course they are all designs our little one (and of course mom and dad) just adores.

Start them off right with these super cool t-shirts and hip bodysuit. We believe it is never too early to get the little one decked out in America’s favorite casual top - the t-shirt! Fun colors and the superb softness of ring spun combed cotton! Ring spun combed cotton will keep your little one super comfy wear after wear. Our lap tee and lap bodysuits are so super functional, and great looking, too. Rib lap-shoulder makes it easy to get your baby in and out without a fuss!”

So, how would you like to win a $50 gift certificate to Bija Baby?  It’ll be the perfect way to get started on your Christmas shopping!
