Huru Humis will be one of the big gifts that everyone is going to want for Christmas this year. They are made for children ten and up. However, my 4 year old and 1 year old love them too. Each Huru Humi has its own name and distinct personality. Their interests range from sports to journalism. We have two of them, and I swear I have teenagers living in my house now. If I don’t check, Madison has been sneaking them into her bed with her at night too.

The reason I like these is that they interact with you. You are able to ask them questions, and they actually will respond to you. The other cool thing is that if you put two Huru Humis next to one another, they start talking to one another! They will have a whole conversation with or without you. These definitely teach your kids many social skills.  It shows them how to have a conversation, not to interrupt, and have differing opinions.  They are fairly easy to use, so kids of all ages will be able to use them.  If you quite talking to them, they even try to get your attention.  Another feature that my kids love is that their hair and outfits are interchangable too.

I have already seen commercials for these on, I think, Nick Jr or one of those kid stations, so you know this is going to be big. Each Huru Humi costs $29.99 and can be purchased at Walmart, Target, Kmart and Toys R Us. However, if you do not want to wait to get one of these, I was able to get not 1, not 2, but 3 of these to giveaway to my lucky readers.  Now, two will be given away randomly.  The third one will be randomly given away among the people who make a Huru Humi video.

Thank goodness for Twitter — for some reason, I thought this giveaway was for Wednesday not last night!  After I tabulated all the extra entries, Random.org pulled #50 to be the winner.  This is where the extra entries come in really handy because Christine won this membership with her blog post!  I will be emailing her shortly!

I have a winner for my Pampers Swaddlers Sensitive giveaway:

Congrats Storm! I will be emailing you shortly for your address.

I personally have a lot on my plate.  I am a mom, a freelancer, and a blogger with 5 blogs.  My free time is limited, and now that I am getting older, I am finding that my mind is not as good as it use to be.  When I saw ListPlanIt, I knew this was something I could definitely use!  I swear that this site has every kind of list you could ever need (my mother would be in heaven here — she loves making lists!).  I have to admit that my most favorite list had to be the grocery shopping one.  It allowed me to organize my shopping list, so I wouldn’t be running all over the store finding what I need.  It made me categorize each item I needed, so when I was in that department, I was able to get everything in one shot.  It is amazing how something so simple can save you a lot of time.  The second set of lists that I love is the time management ones.  Who can’t use a little help with time management?  You can do everything from a year in advance to daily routine planning.  I like being to write down what reviews I want to do, so I don’t miss anything.  There is even a weekly planner with meals!  I am in love with the meal planning lists.  There are just so many lists here, and I can find a use for almost all of them!  I literally could go on and on and on.

Now, can you use website that will help you organize your life?  (Seriously, who can’t?)  If so, I have the best giveaway for you.  ListPlanIt will give the winner a Quarterly Membership to their site to check it out.  Once you start using these lists, you will find it addicting.  What do you need to do to win?

Each one of these things will give you one entry:

1. Leave a comment on this post. I want to know which lists you think you would use the most.
2. Twitter about this contest. Please leave me your username so I can verify.
3. Stumble this post. If you don’t know what Stumble Upon is, please read Lori’s post at Blogging Cents. She explains it extremely well.

I am a diehard Pampers fan.  My kids are pee machines, and no other diaper held up better than Pampers.  My favorite Pampers diapers have to be the Pampers Swaddlers.  Now, I am super excited to announce that Pampers has a new Swaddlers on the market.  They are called Pampers Swaddlers Sensitive.  These diapers are both hypoallergenic and very gentle for your babies skin. These are definitely for the little ones with super sensitive skin or were born with diaper rash (yes, I know children who it looked like were born with diaper rash). These are super soft diapers; it would be surprised if you could find another diaper out there soft like this. The absorb away liner is awesome. It truly does keep the wetness away from the baby’s little butt. The sides of this diaper are also ultra breathable and soft and stretchy. You can actually take the sides of the diaper and blow through them and still feel your breath. Why is this important? My kids would get pricky heat rashes where the sides are with other diapers — never with pampers. I have to think the breathablility helped prevented this. Though, I have to say that I think the most awesome part of these new diapers is the what I like to call “The Pee Indicator”. Nothing is more frustrating than when you can’t tell if they went in the diaper or not. It will look like it, but not feel like, and then you end up doing a poll of the room to see if you should change your little one. Pampers Wetness Indicator (that’s what they like to call it) is a strip on the outside of the diaper that changes from yellow to blue when your baby is wet. No more guessing!

Now, Pampers was kind enough to send me a pack of the Pampers Swaddlers Sensitive diapers to giveaway to one of my lucky readers!  This pack has 34 diapers in it and are a Size 2 (which is 12-18 lbs).  What do you have to do win this?

Each one of these things will give you one entry:

1. Leave a comment on this post. I want to know why you would like to try these diapers.

I know you all have been waiting for this (I know, it has been like waiting for all your blackheads to go away when we were like teenagers.  Never thought it would happen, yet it did)!  I finally have a winner chosen for this awesome giveaway Sony allowed me to do.  I have to thank all people who entered!  This has been one of my best giveaways I have ever done.  I do apologize that it has taken me about an hour to tally all the extra entries that you all did.  So — without further ado, the winner is:

#34 is Julie from Julie’s Journal!  I will be contacting her shortly!

Yes, you heard it right.  I am completely jealous of all of you, since I only got one of these to borrow!  The Sony Digital Photo Frame is worth about $249.99, so this is a giveaway you want enter!

Let me tell you a little bit about this frame.  It is a 9-inch digital photo frame with 800×480 resolution and 15:9 aspect ratio LCD screen.  It has 512MB of internal memory with optional image resizing to maximize the internal memory.  It also includes HDMI output for viewing photos in high definition on an HDTV.  You are able to auto correct images with features such as red-eye correction.  It also offers nine slide show styles and clock and calendar modes.  Now, I know that all sounds difficult to figure out what to do.  However, I was able to do this all without reading the manual!  This digital picture frame is even BlueTooth ready!  You can also run the pictures off several different kinds of memory cards:  Memory Stick media and Memory Stick PRO Duo media, SD, MMC, CF, Microdrive, and xD Picture cards. I seriously could not believe how crisp these pictures are.  I am seriously sad that I have to venture over to Fed Ex on Monday and send mine back.

Now, I know you don’t want to read about how much fun we had playing testing this out for you, my readers, so . . . . what do you have to do to get one of these in your house?

1.  Leave a comment on this post.  Check out Sony’s site and tell me what feature you think you would like best on this frame.  One comment please and let me know everything you did on that comment.  If you don’t list a feature, you are not eligible to win.
2. Stumble this post. If you don’t know what Stumble Upon is, please read Lori’s post at Blogging Cents. She explains it extremely well.
3. Vote for this post on other social media sites. One extra entry for each social media site you vote for this on.  (I’ll be adding some links to make this especially easy for you to vote — Digg, Propeller, Mixx, Kirtsy, Entreview, Reddit, Blogging Zoom)
4.  Twitter about this contest.  Please leave me your Twitter name in your comment.
