July 1st, early morning. We head into the hospital to check in.. in a few hours our third child will be born via c-section. We are excited and a little nervous, but mostly so ready to welcome our third child. And after he is born we will record a quick message and then a call will be sent to our family and friends letting them know about Ryder's arrival.
Well... if you follow my blog at all, you know this did not happen. This is how it was supposed to happen, but yeah Ryder jumped ship 8 weeks early while we were on vacation in Utah.
And that phone call I talked about, well it's Baby's First Phone Call. I won a gift certificate for it a while back on the blog Shelley's Swag. And guess what it came in the mail yesterday... and well I obviously don't need it anymore; so I would love to give it to one of you my lucky readers.
What: "Baby's First Phone Call is an automated tree that allows you to notify all of your friends and family of the arrival of your bundle of joy without the hassle of making dozens of individual phone calls, or leaving some friends and family to find out second- or third-hand. With Baby's first phone call, you can set up an account before your baby is born--when you still have a moment of time to yourself--and enter the names and phone numbers of all the people you want to notify when the baby arrives. Then, after the baby is born, you make a single, toll-free phone call and leave a personal voice-mail message of any length with all the details you want to share."
So my lucky readers, thanks to Ryder's early arrival, I want to send this gift certificate worth $50 to one of you. If you aren't pregnant but have a friend who is, send them this way to enter, or enter for them-what a fun gift!
How to Enter:
-Simply leave a comment saying something about babies.
Additional Entries: (leave a SEPARATE comment for each additional entry)

ReplyDeleteAwe... that is so sweet of you. And thank goodness little Ryder is all safe and sound at home now:). I'm hoping to win this lovely incentive b/c I have right around 4 weeks until my due date with a precious little girl:)
ReplyDeleteI follow your blog:)
ReplyDeleteEmmy, I thought this was up last night - only to have no access, so here I am.
ReplyDeleteBabies, umm... they don't produce tears at birth...
I think.
And of course, I already follow your blog. Silly not to ;)
ReplyDeleteOh wow. The best of luck with your new little one and congrats.
ReplyDeleteBaby comment: Babies are great to hold until they cry, poop, whine or look uncomfortable in any way.
Babies are so sweet and helpless. There is nothing we wouldnt do for them in the drop of a hat. They are truly little miracles and as a mom, with one that came early, you definitely know that. There is something really special about a infant that just came from our Heavenly Father. So innocent and clean and pure. Hope things are going well for you. I will definitely be following your blog, its SO cute!
ReplyDeleteMy sister in law just announced she is expecting. She has really hard pregnancies, and if this one is anything like the last one, an early birth is eminent. I would LOVE to win this for her.
ReplyDeleteAnd I am a follower! :)
I also forgot to mention that I follow you as well! Love reading the blog each day!
ReplyDeleteFriends of mine seem to be popping out babies left and right around here (I'm in Utah)! Ha ha. So this would make a great baby shower gift!
