Who Doesn't Love Free Stuff?

If you said me, then I would have to say I do not believe you LOL. I know I love free stuff, or cheap stuff, or just stuff. Small town mommy is having a giveaway, and it is a good one. But before I tell you about that, I must insist on boring you with my 5 yr old daughters letter to Santa. She made her brother write it because she didn't want Santa to have to try and read her messy handwriting. She is lucky he is a nice brother. Too bad for him, she asked for a new one. If you get a kick out of kids, you will certainly enjoy it. If you do not like children, then I don't know why you are reading a post on a homeschool blog. I am after all not homeschooling my dogs. Yes, I actually made her limit her list to ten things, since she really insists she is getting everything. I also asked if she was sure she wanted, a baby brother, and sister, since she was using up two items? She said yes. Too bad Santa does not deliver children, whew thank goodness!!!

Now on to the good stuff. Anne over at Small Town Mommy, has decided she likes BJ's wholesale so much, that she is giving away a two month membership, and a 25 dollar gift card. I like Anne, she is sarcastic, and that is just my kind of humor. If you decide to enter her giveaway, read the directions carefully. I did mention she was funny, right? If you are not good at reading directions, like me obviously, you will miss the comment section. Skim reading is great, but not so much when you are entering a giveaway as cool as this. So, go on over to Small Town Mommy, and get your entry in, before it is too late. I actually did not see when it ends, and I read it twice, so don't mess around, and put it off.

Are You Having A Baby?

Are you having a baby, soon? Are you planning on having a baby? Do you know someone that is having a baby? Need a unique, and wonderful gift idea? Give the gift of cord preservation with Cryo-Cell Stem Cell Cord Preservation. Cord Blood Preservation is not a totally new concept. It has been around for a few years. However, now you can give gift certificates, available in 50 dollar increments, to yourself or loved ones, having a baby. Cord Preservation, is simple. They save your babies cord blood, which is rich with stem cells. It is stored, and can be used later for prevention, and treatment of deadly diseases. Over 70 diseases, can be treated using Cord Stem Cells. Cord Stem Cells can also be used in the case of the need of a transplant, such as Bone Marrow transplants.

When I had my two children, this technology was fairly new. I opted not to do it, because of the expense involved. They did not offer gift certificates, back then. Now you can request your loved ones to each get you a 50 dollar gift certificate, so you can save your babies Cord Blood. Or if you have a loved one, or close friend, that is expecting a baby. I can't think of a more wonderful gift than knowing their baby could be protected from over 70 diseases, by saving their Cord Blood.

I know that some religions may be against Stem Cell Research. However, this is saving Cord Blood, from your babies umbilical cord. It is completely natural, and should not go wasted, in my opinion. If it is being used for only your baby, or maybe even possibly your babies siblings, I don't see how that could be a bad, or negative thing.
