March is Colon Cancer Awareness Month
Coming from a family with a colon cancer history and a father in remission for it, I'm definitely happy to advocate March as being colon cancer awareness month. Each year, the American Cancer Society says 50,000 people die of colon cancer and it's the third leading cause of death among men and women.
There are typically no symptoms until it passes the early stages. Signs to watch out for are bowel changes, stomach pain, dark stools, tiredness, rectal bleeding or blood in the stools. If you have a history of colon cancer, early screening is recommended. Colon cancer mostly occurs in men and women over 50 years old so make sure you get screened annually.
During the screening tests, polyps might be detected which can be removed before they might turn to cancer. My dad can always tell when polyps regrow as he has a change in his bowel habits which is a good sign to be checked. He's been in remission for almost four years now.
Get checked and wear blue in support of colon cancer awareness for March!

My Twitter ReTweet Win: Cutie Pa Tutus
A few week's ago or so ago, I was retweeting my giveaways, others giveaways and tweeting out two of my favorite online, women-owned stores: Adorable Baby Clothing and Ficklets. Ros at Ficklets was retweeting about a giveaway if Cutie Pa Tutus achieved a certain number of followers. I followed because Ros said so! Long story short, I won!!! My gorgeous two year old won a custom made Tutu!
It was an adorable Valentine's Day tutu but I noted how I should have ordered a Colts colored one as no matter what, I love my Colts. That's when Cutie Pa Tutu offered to make it sports tutu in the blue and white colors! Isn't that nice?
Not only is Cutie Pa Tutus a cute name but they have cute tutus premade, one's you can custom make, matching poofy pom pom wands and great looking play capes.
The story of Cutie Pa Tutus is inspiring as it's a mom who needed a tutu for her daughter's first princess party. Amanda, owner, found the market was really good in SC and expanded her brilliant idea in starting her own business.
Cutie Pa Tutus isn't just for girls! There are personalized super hero capes and masks. You can choose red, hot pink or royal blue. What kid wouldn't love this? I think it's a great idea and never even thought about making super hero capes!
Just when you think there could not be more, Cutie Pa Tutu also has personalized super hero boxers, personalized super hero boxers and onesie combos, persoanlized onesies and personalized super hero t-shirts.
Don't forget to check out the Me and My Doll Matching Tutus, Pa Tutu Pals, and Pooch Pa Tutu.
Thank you for the adorable tutu that my little one loves! I'll be posting a photo of her soon!

Must Have: Dr. Carey's Baby Care Kit Review & Giveaway 04/01 CLOSED WINNER
CONGRATULATIONS TO ....
RACHEL!
An e-mail has been sent to Rachel and she has 48 hours to respond.
Thanks to all those who entered!
*random.org was used to choose the winner
If you are pregnant or have a baby, you will want to read this review and participate in this amazing giveaway for Dr. Carey's Baby Care Kit:
The Dr. Carey's Baby Care Kit includes baby products essential to baby care basics. Starting out with a 96 page baby care book filled with practical explanations to mom and dad's most frequently asked questions with more than 120 photos showing typical stages of baby development and minor baby health issues. It even comes with a keepsake decorated box to store all your baby's memorable moments. You can see actual pictures and a table of contents of the book here.
Even though I'm not a new mom, I see the value in this book with the actual pictures and I can imagine how a new mom would cling to Dr. Carey's baby care book. The detailed pictures of such conditions like rashes is easier to try to pinpoint when you can see an actual picture of the rash. The book is a goldmine of information for both new and experienced moms to read and cherish.
One of the items in the kit that drew me to the kit was the squirt bottle for homemade saline solution. I have an asthmatic at home and keeping her nose cleared when she has a cold is essential. In fact, any baby should have clear breathing during colds and this squirt bottle allows an alternative choice compared to store bought versions.
The kit comes with everything a new parent needs and it is even great for those with experience. Every item in this great baby care kit is something you will use with a new baby.
- Dr. Carey's™ Baby Blanket - the book even shows you how to properly swaddle your baby with great illustrations.
- A+D Ointment which most moms know how great this is on babies.
- Hawaii Medical’s GumDrop™ Pacifier - this pacifer is used in hundreds of hospitals. The low profile fits a newborn's face better and is lightweight.
- Squirt Bottle for Homemade Saline Solution - As nature’s best decongestant, nasal saline is easy to make and simple to use with Dr. Carey’s clear directions. This is a must have for stopped up noses!
- Digital Thermometer - Dr. Carey explains more about fevers in the book. This will be handy as most parents panic when it comes to fevers but Dr. Carey's advice and information will help to ensure you are doing the right thing at the right time.
Nose Suction Bulb - every house with babies and young children need these! Not the most pleasant thing to do but a clean, clear nose helps children get healthier.
Dr. Carey has a practice out of California.
If you have any questions, there is an area on the website to ask: http://www.doctorcarey.org/ask-dr-carey/
Check out Dr. Carey's website, follow him on Twitter or become a fan on Facebook.
Don't forget to enter the correct way to swaddle a baby for a chance to win a Dr. Carey's Baby Care Kit!

Sam & Bellie for Kids & More: Eco Friendly Company
I have to admit that blogging has advantages in that you are always looking out for the newest product, the latest information and sales. BTrendi offered these great ChalkMats at a huge discounted price and although the chalk was already sold out, I purchased two of the ChalkMats for my girls.
The ChalkMats come in three patterns and are the only eco-friendly PVC free chalkboard. Not only is it safer for your kids and better for the environment, it has a dual functionality of being a place mat if you flip it over. There is also a pocket for the chalk, pens and markers.
It's recommended for ages 3 and up and has a patent pending.
The chalk pens are also what I'll have to try. They are toxic free, scent free and are perfect for the Jaq Jaq ChalkMat. the chalk pens work like dry erase markers and are completely safe for children ages 3 and up. They wipe up with a damp towel or cloth and comes in blue, pink, yellow, white and green.
They offer many other products ranging from bibs, aprons, other types of chalk, activity mats and more.
Stay tuned for my review.
