<br />
I do apologize for such a late post, shame on me! I am sure that we are all crazy busy with the holiday season, but the matches were made about a month ago, emails sent. If you are having any problems, please let me know ASAP so I can see what we can work out. If you have emailed me in the past week, I will get back to you this weekend about donating for the next shower. On that note...<br />
<br />
As enjoyable of an experience as this has been, I would be lying if I said I could do this by myself again the next go around starting in January. I HAVE to have another volunteer or two to help or take over. I want the next shower to be even more successful, as it will benefit us all!!! Please email me at etsybabyshower@gmail.com if you are interested. <br />
<br />
Also, please, take pictures of the product you are sending your expectant or new mommy and send them to me, so that I can post your beautiful products to our Flickr album and the blog! <br />
<br />
Lot's of Love,<br />

I am sitting here typing this with one hand (my baby is nursing right now), and wanted to apologize for the delays in emails and matching. Every time I go to work on this project, you know...life...a kid wants something to eat...or drink...or a diaper change...you know...they have this radar that mommy is busy...<br />
In any case! My husband was home this weekend (we are military, so this can be a rarity), which is another reason why my deadline needed to be extended. Again, please accept my apologies! I am in the process of matching, which to explain the process right now I am tying up loose ends, such as who sells what, to make sure that nobody gets a mama that sells the same thing! :-) Like, if you make a mother's necklace, I don't want to pair you up with someone that makes...mother's necklaces. Also had some last minute donating shops, which is great, so thank you thank you thank you! In the meantime, check out some of our donating shops below.<br />

This weekend I have been tying up all of the information gathered and have begun to match donating shops and the expecting mothers! With that said, the lists are closed until our Baby Shower that will start in January. Everyone should be hearing from me via email on Monday, and please feel free to contact me at any point in time with questions. Thank you for all of your time, I appreciate it!!! P.S. if you are a donating shop please send me your bio with pictures, we want to hear about your story!!!<br />

Babywearing just makes sense . . . for you and your baby. They need security, you need your hands, and you both enjoy the time to cuddle. The security of a child held close is a reminder to me of the most precious facet of my life -- the eternal security that I have in my salvation through Jesus Christ.</span></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span lang="EN"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

I personally use all three types and appreciate them for different reasons! For simplicity, I like a pouch. For versatility, I’d choose a ring sling. For hiking, I’d probably reach for my wrap. To help newbies to babywearing, a Li'l Peeper Keepers DVD has been designed that covers basic use instructions for each carrier type and comes free with purchase of a carrier. We offer basic to deluxe, from simply beautiful linen slings and gauze wraps, to our Artist Series, where art meets sewing!</span></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span lang="EN"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

Now I live in Vermont, and am a part time freelance graphic designer, and full time stay at home mom to an amazing 2 year old little girl - in my free time, I love to create very intricate things.</span></span><br />

I also make little 3d paper dolls sculpted with rolled paper. I love the challenge of working very small.</span><br />

I participated in an Etsy Baby Shower about two years ago when I was pregnant with my daughter, and have wanted to participate as a donating shop since then. Now, I'm expecting again (and due in two weeks!) and am thrilled to be participating this time as both a donating shop and as an expectant mom.</span></span><br />

I would love to have everyone matched to their expecting Mama's by October 15th!<br />
However, I would also love to have a few more donating shops (hint hint!) We currently have 10 expecting mothers, and 10 donating shops. I think it would be really nice for the mothers to have 3 gifts each. I wish everyone a great week! <br />
Lots of Love,<br />

Before I start, I wanted to apologize for the earlier post, my youngest son Noah came down with a virus, so I did not get a chance to send out emails. They will go out this week, and thank you to those who have emailed me thus far!<br />
<br />
On another note, I would like to introduce Monica from <a href="http://moandozzy.etsy.com/">Mo & Ozzy</a> on Etsy, who is a wonderful and kind lady, and who I had the pleasure of donating a bracelet to in the last shower! Thank you Monica for sharing your story! <br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm Monica McDonald and I'm a yarn addict. And a shoe addict. And a paper addict. And, well, you get the idea! I have a tendancy to be a hesitant person, but once I jump in the pool, I don't get out! <br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" />I was raised in beautiful, rainy, grey and green Western Washington, but somehow ended up in the mountains and desert in Utah! The things we do for love, huh? I've got a great, sweet, handsome hubby who is a great dad to our two boys. I participated in the Summer Etsy Baby Shower as both a donating shop and a recipient. It was a great experience and I'm so excited to donate again for fall! <br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" />My shop, Mo & Ozzy, started after my first son was born. I had been an elementary school teacher before he was born, and now, as a stay at home mom, I was lonely, isolated, and feeling down. I made a caterpillar hat for him and had tons of compliments. I'd made hats back in college, so I got down to work, designed and made a few more and started my shop! It was a great pick me up for me to feel productive and I found crochet super relaxing. I've made lots of amazing friends in the handmade community and continue to love every minute of it! <br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" />My shop specializes in hats, of course, and includes acrylic winter hats, cotton hats for warmer weather, and wool hats. I also create sweaters, booties, dresses, leg warners, bags, and hair accessories. I design each item and don't work from patterns. I prefer the challenge and freedon of figuring things out on my own and changing them as I go!</span><br />

As you may know, Deniz and I are passing the hosting torch for the upcoming Etsy Baby Shower. She and I are both expecting babies and would like to participate as "moms". As it would be a conflict of interest for us to both host and receive gifts, we must step down as hosts. Thanks for your patience while the change over happens! It's been a lot of fun for us to host and we have enjoyed getting to know all of you. Feel free to keep up with Deniz and I!<br />

</div><div style="margin: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Hi! My name is Shannon Gilbride, and I'm the wahm behind <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/gillyweeds">Gillyweeds</a>. I am a busy mom of six, who loves to crochet, knit, and scrapbook. My love of these things led me to open my shop on Etsy. I make hand knitted and crocheted children's clothing, diapering woolens, and other items. I offer hand made greeting cards for all occasions, as well as the Gillyweeds Bottoms Up Crocheted soaker pattern.</span></span></div><div style="margin: 0pt;"><br />

For the baby shower, I crocheted a wool soaker and hat, perfect for a newborn. Wool makes a wonderful, naturally breathable and waterproof barrier, keeping baby cool in the summer, and warm in the winter. It is naturally antiseptic, meaning it only needs washing when it is visibly soiled, saving on laundry! Diaper covers and clothing made of wool keep baby dry, and can be used over cloth diapers, as well as disposable.</span> </span></div><div style="margin: 0pt;"><br />

Hi! I am Cortney from <a href="http://www.cortsthings.etsy.com/">Cort’s Things</a>. I am a stay at home mom of 2 and I started making things for my 9 year old daughter because I have a hard time finding things I like for her. Soon people started asking me to make things for them and I eventually decided to open a shop. I plan on adding lots of new things this year and I am very excited to grow and expand my shop. <br />
<br />
I donated a bib to 2 expecting moms for this baby shower. I love my bibs because they are soft and reversible which means you actually get 2 bibs in 1.<br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Hi, I’m Kristen from Banana Bottoms Cloth Diapers. I am a SAHM to 4 children and got started making cloth diapers when my oldest was born. I love to use bamboo and organic cotton fabrics and find these to be a fantastic fabric choice for cloth diapering. I have started offering cloth training pants, which are a big hit and have recently added organic blankets and burp cloths and eco friendly cloth play scenes for the bigger kids. </span><br />
<br />

It is generously sized at approximately 10” by 15” and can even serve as a changing pad in a pinch. It is backed with a thick and soft certified organic cotton flannel making this a perfect addition to an eco-friendly layette. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">I am looking forward to expanding my organic layette selections, as well as expanding my natural and eco-friendly toys collection, in time for the holiday season.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Through the end of July, my organic blankets and burp cloths are on sale.</span><br />
