1 Tim Butron Blog Party!!!

It's here! The Paper Sparrow Time Burton Blog Party! What better theme for the month of October? I'm really excited about this party and even more excited that I was able to take part in it. I'm doing a giveaway which will open at 10pm tonight and my guest post will appear tomorrow at 5 so don't forget to check it out!

3 Marry Me

If I could marry a baby product I would be standing at the alter with my Boba in a heart beat. I know I talk about it a lot and I even have a tab for it , but I seriously ADORE this thing. I usually only get to wear it when we go on hikes or to the zoo or some place where lots of walking takes place because P loves to run around on her own, but now that my itty bitty nephew if finally big enough I introduced him to it last week and he loves it! Success!

I didn't buy it until Peyton was 9 months so I never really got to wear a little bittle in it so it's like discovering it all over again!

 I wear him in it when he's fighting sleep and he passes right out. 

I put him in it when dishes need to be done and he's being needy. Two birds one stone. Winning! 

look no hands!

also? It makes giving kisses and smelling babies so much easier

If you have the means to get one of these puppies and are on the boarder DO IT! NOW! you won't regret it. And should it not work for you they have a 60 day no questions asked return policy. What's your excuse now?

 Side note:

Don't forget to enter the giveaway for the create a pepper shirt! It helps support St Jude's and the fight against childhood cancer! I realized I never put an end on the giveaway so I will pick a winner on Monday

0 Book Club//Book1Week1

It's finally time to get this show on the road! As mentioned before  today is the official starting day of my very first book club book! Yay! So here is how it's going to work.

Read chapters 1-8 by next Monday ~ it's only 76 pages and I read 1-5 in one night. It's a pretty easy read. You can obviously read on if you want but if you are doing a review be sure not to give things away past chapter 8!

via

Keep a notebook by your side ~ in case you want to jot down something of interest or a page number you want to refer back to. I will answer/ask some questions that you can feel free to respond to and notes may help you to remember important details!

I will probably schedule my post Sunday night to go up Monday morning. You can either do the same or wait to see what I say then respond to that. Remember you don't have to have a blog to take part just shoot me an email!

So I think that's pretty much it... pretty self explanatory. I don't know that anyone is actually going to partake but if you are send me an email please! abussard7@gmail.com if not I will just make it a book review type thing... although I may give more away than a regular review so you may not want to read my posts if you plan on picking this book up! Ill put a PSA at the beginning of every post JIC!

I hope to have some people join in! I think it could be fun!

4 Giveaway//Pepper in Some Hope...

Haiii! 

So today I'm here to talk briefly about a GREAT cause. As a lot of you may already know because, well, Chili's is so fabulous, they have a fund raiser once a year for St. Jude's Children's Hospital. You can go to the restaurant and leave a donation, create a pepper to show support, or buy some merchandise. Really people, what would be a better cause then to help sick children fighting cancer? Answer: None.

Also? They are selling these really awesome T-shirts and bracelets.... 

another awesome factor? You can take a sharpie to these sweet T's and create a wearable pepper. Be cooler Chili's really.

is it a given that I would make mine into a shark? I don't know.. is it?

ummmm did I mention that the bracelets are snap bracelets? Hello 90's flashback. Fabulous.
