Do you travel a lot? In this last year, I have started traveling quite a bit. I learned that my black luggage my hide dirt and wear and tear well. However, I have also learned that everyone has black luggage, and it all looks exactly the same when it is coming off the baggage claim thing at the airport. I always thought I was being tricky by tying a neon colored ribbon on my luggage. However, a lot of people are doing that now, so that has quit working. I hate to pass along this great idea, since then you all will buy them and ruin it for me. However, Luggage Charms are such a great idea that I have to pass it on. Luggage Charms are super easy to use. Just tie them (triple knot) to anything that you don’t want to lose when you are flying such as your baggage, stroller, car seats, etc. These charms come with brightly colored ribbons and tags. On the front of the tag, you are able to get whatever design you want. On the back of the tag, you are able write or affix a label with all of your identifying information in case your luggage ends up separated from you (I hate when my luggage ends up on a better trip than me). They won’t look like anything anyone else has on their bag, so you don’t have to worry about anyone accidentally grabbing you luggage. You also won’t be standing at the baggage area trying to figure out if that’s really your suitcase or not! Even if you aren’t sitting at the airport, you can also use these to show who’s suitcase belongs to who. Since the ones I have each have different ribbon colors, it was easy to know whose suitcase was whose suitcase on your visit to Green Bay this weekend.

If you do any traveling at all, I highly recommend these luggage charms. They are priced right, are fashionable, and they make your life that much easier.  Now, I know you want a set of your own (each set has 4 charms in it), so I have arranged to give away 5 SETS of these, and you’ll get to pick what initial you want on each charm!  How awesome is that?  Here’s what you need to do:

Oh to be in the days having a child that actually sits in a stroller. I only wish. However, a stroller is one of the must have things for a new mother. It is nice to see that since I have had my kids that it is much easier to find a stroller that fits your needs. Babyearth has a ton of strollers to pick from. They have single strollers, double strollers, and any kind of namebrand you can think of including Graco and Bugaboo!  All orders over $99 have free shipping too!  The stroller I picked to include in the post is what I think every mother needs.  I love the dual purpose strollers like these.  Everyone needs a carseat.  The carseat also can be clicked into the stroller which makes life much easier for a new mother.  If you are in need of a stroller, make sure you check out babyearth!

Since I am using the same stroller with Will that I used with Madison, I am always in the market for a newer and/or better product. Mutsy is one of the strollers out there that have caught my eye. I like products that can be used for more than just one thing. This definitely fulfills that need. Everything is interchangeable. You are able to start with a bassinet for a baby. You then can swap that out for the stroller seat. You can also get an adapter, so you can put a Graco Snug Ride car seat in there too! You can also put the stroller seat into the Babysitter frame and have it become a rocker. Talk about more bang for your buck! They have several different types of strollers though my favorite has to be the urban rider next. I am not sure if it is the futuristic design or the many color choices, but I really like this stroller.
