There’s a lot of things happening I want YOU, my awesome readers, to be aware of.  Hopefully this post will help you take advantage of some really great deals and events.  I would love to see each of you out involved in all we have going on in the community. 

Birth Center News:

As you know, pregnancy and birth are major passions of mine.  And, they definitely keep me busy!  Well, in the midst of growing our family with baby #2 on the way, we’ve also been very occupied helping open a birth center.  All About Babies Birth Center is in the north of the metroplex, in Argyle.  Please become a fan on Facebook.  There, we will post updates on the latest events- Movie Nights, Sip’n'Sees and MaterniTEAs- and classes- Out of Hospital Birth Orientation, Organic Cooking Classes, Birth Classes, Cloth Diapering/Babywearing- (including our Open House!).  We are also in the midst of updating our website, and will post that as soon as it is available.

Win Your Own Blog:

My friend and patient, Heather aka “The Mommypotamus“, has the coolest contest going on on her blog right now…  And, you should definitely go check it out!  Do you love my blog?  I’m not talking just content here, I’m talking the layout and look?  Well, you could have a blog of your own, for FREE!  Heather’s husband, Daniel, is the talent behind my blog.  He designed the whole thing for me, tutored me on how to use it, and still deals w/ my nagging questions.  And, I love, love, love my blog…  Even when I am too busy puking to give it the attention it needs .  I just think it’s so cool that Heather is offering you the chance to win yours!  Go check it out, here.
