Swaddle Designs 3 Step Safe Sleepwear-Review and Giveaway

Happy Friday! Today you are in for a treat readers.  We are teaming up with Swaddle Designs for a really great giveaway!

I used Swaddle Designs products with Hallie from infant to toddler stages.  In fact they are so beloved in our house, Hallie still uses them to wrap her baby dolls in, and I am having a hard time sneaking them away to wash for our baby girl on the way.

While Swaddle Designs offers many great products, I can’t wait to try this adorable Transitional Swaddle Sack with Elise.

With the Transitional Swaddle Sack, Swaddle Designs is bridging the gap from swaddling to sleep sack.  This is a perfect option for babies who enjoy the feeling of being swaddled, but are starting to roll over.  The Transitional Swaddle Sack has “Arms Up Sleeves” with fold over mitten cuffs to keep baby warm while keeping hands free to lift their torso and re-position their head to breathe.  Medical professionals recommend this transition around 3 months.

Hospitals across the country embrace Swaddle Designs 3 Step Safe Sleepwear and pediatricians often recommend them as well.  Due to the unique design, the baby’s arms are positioned close to body when the cuffs are closed to help suppress the Moro (startle) reflex. However, arms are still free to prevent suffocation if they were to roll over.  The Transitional Swaddle Sack also features a 2-way zipper making late night diaper changes super convenient.

I can’t wait to snuggle Elise into one of these precious Swaddle Sacks. If you are looking for a great gift Swaddle Designs also offers gift wrapping.  Your product will arrive with a lovely hand tied bow and hand written card.  Perfect for a baby shower or a last minute holiday gift.

Hallie’s Stocking-2018

Tick-Tock, Tick-Tock, Counting down the Christmas Clock!  Less than 2 weeks to go until Christmas day! My shopping is almost complete, and I am ready to fill Hallie’s stocking! Because of the new addition to the family after Christmas, my goal for this years stocking was to pack it with activities to keep Hallie busy at times I’m busy with baby.  I am also adding hair ties because where do all of the hair ties go!? Seriously! Then of course the card games for us to play during Elise’s naps.

Hallie is really into Arts and Crafts right now! She can spend hours coloring, cutting and pasting or molding dough! This foam dough along with these precious confetti crayons and stackable crayons are sure to keep her busy while I tend to the baby.

I can’t wait to spend Elise’s nap times playing card games with Hallie.  Spot it is a great game for her age and the card holder is genius! Usually she has a hard time keeping all of her cards in her hand at once.

Dressing up is another favorite past time of Miss Hallie! I can’t wait for her to try these stick on earrings! I have such sweet memories of wearing them when I was a kid. Also how cute are these Ryan and Wren hair clips! If you want to snag some of these for your little girl (of course you do!) make sure to order them immediately.  Tomorrow (12/12) is the last day to order and ensure delivery on time for Christmas!

I am topping off the stocking with a few books and some stickers! Just can’t wait for her to open it Christmas morning! What are you putting in your kids stockings this year?
