In my short blogging life (5 months) I have been very lucky! Yes LUCKY! I stumbled onto a give away by Jan Parrish for the book Teaching Your Child About Sex by Grace Ketterman, MD. The book and the concept of giving away things on our blog struck me. So I entered the drawing thinking that would be the end, but I continued to ponder the idea of giving things away on your blog. Hmm interesting I thought! Then out of the blue….. I won the book from Jan and I have been hooked on blogging and blog giveaways ever since.
My next blog give away venture and the inspiration for my current give away was at Pennies in my Pocket! She was giving away a blog makeover worth $60. As you can see from my blog I won! Pretty cool design huh?
Finally Steph at MaNiC MoMMy had a wonderful give away that not only included a prize but also the joy of knowing you made a difference. I donated a pint of blood and won a $10 gift card to Target! So based on my math that is about a $100 worth of stuff! Not to shabby if you ask me!
So now it is my turn!
Are you ready??? I am paying it forward so to speak and I have enlisted the help of Revka of RS Designs! Up for grabs is $60 worth of services to spice up your blog! Here is what you have to do. Go Check out Revka’s portfolio

Hey! that's pretty cool how the words daily grind are jumbled on the sidebar. Makes someone take a double take and try to figure out what the words are! Very cool.
count me in for the giveaway. i'm looking to spruce up my contest blog. can you say YAWN!
First time reader, found you through a post on another blog. I think your header is very sharp!
You site looks great! I love it! I never win anything (*sigh*) - I'm glad you won - it looks wonderful! Have a good afternoon. Kellan
New here also - I really like the colors on your site and I'm with Tanyetta that the jumbled words on the sidebar are pretty cool! :)
I have wanted a new blog design forever. I like the stripes on the outside and the header. What I like most though is the fact that you don't see it on every other blog you go to. Please count me in and I'll post sometime today. I'll e-mail when I do.
I'm a first time reader as well. I love the clean lines on your blog. I can't stand things that look cluttered. I would love to win this, as my friend is longing for a new look and I would give it to her. Thanks for the contest!
I like the stripes on the side! Very chic. I'll be posting about this tonight!
I am a first time reader as well. I like how clean your blog looks. The header is probably the best part of the site. I have been wanting to customize my blog for awhile and am just now starting to promote it more and post to it more. I could really use the change. I'll email you after I post about your contest. Thanks for the opportunity to help other moms!
I am first time reader. I like the header, the color scheme and the title jumbled on the side.
I'm a new reader and you new theme looks great! I especially like the header image.
first time reader, bumped through your site. :)
love the design, looks neat and the color combination is just perfect.
hope to win so i can have mine spruced up! :)
Oops forgot to tell you that I post about the contest contets4moms.com
Ha. I tried to figure out the jumbled letters too, then I just went to the top again and knew what it was. funny. it's cool. my fave was the picture on the header though. i like the plainness and the setup of it. It is modern.

I like the jumbled letters. tpp~ fun blog! I like your design. I came here, because I still need to let you know what I want with the Silver Package. I am having a difficult time picking out only 3 things...maybe if I win this, I really can deck out my blog! I think I found a picture for the header (finally)! I will e-mail you!
I like your blog~very stylish!
Thanks~

What do I like about your blog? Well, aside from the AWESOME content (and no, that's not a blatant kiss-up, no matter what anyone else says! LOL) I love the clean, coordinated look. Revka does good work, and yours is a real stand-out job. :)
It's my first time here, but I'm definitely subscribing. I like how clean and neat your site is. I'd love for my blog to be spiced up! Thanks so much for this great giveaway!
I like how you have your buttons separated. Mine seem to all run together at times.
Greetings! Your site has a unique header that I think is delightful. It is also easy to navigate. I am glad that I found you because I like your topics. In fact, I am signing up for your email newsletter! Thanks,Cindi
