Winners and Follow-Up

Oops, forgot to post the winners:

Shalom Sesame DVDs:
One goes to ChambanaLaura and one to RavYoga!

For the Love of Being Jewish (signed copy):
my dear friend, Cantor Neff - hey, Sally!

Ladies, please email me your mailing addresses - phyl613 at gmail.com - thanks!

In other news:
The tooth is doing great, and David has asked that I stop trying to suggest that he wear a mouthguard 24/7...for the first day or so, that's all we suggested. I did nix a caramel apple, tho....

Reviewing my wish list from the other day:
Thanks to some amazing people, I got a pregnancy massage that was awesome. Wow. I don't even know how to say thank you - I was so overwhelmed with these gifts!

Dairy Queen still doesn't deliver but my husband has taken pains to ensure that there's ice cream in the freezer at all times. (He doesn't mind sharing with me, either...so we've had ice cream parties almost every night. Don't tell the kids!) Thanks to a great friend who delivered it straight to me, I even have whipped cream!

Thanks to everyone who offered maternity clothes but I think I'll just stick out the last bit with what I have. I did spill coffee on one shirt and I can't get it out...oh well. And I bought some new PJ bottoms which will last past the pregnancy, so that made me happy. I also bought a new pair of shoes for not too much money (and resisted the ones I wanted to buy so I can wait til afterwards) and so I'm feeling a little happier about that too.

Literally, the same day I wrote the post, in which I asked for someone to walk around with me and remind me of the day of the week, I went to a place that had "soup of the day" listed and I asked her what day it was...and of course, she knew. So even that came true!!!!

And I'm daily trying to remind myself what a blessing pregnancy is. I'm looking forward to meeting our little Yoda but I'm also savoring every moment....or trying to!

Winner of Yiddish for Babies

And the winner of Yiddish for Babies is... @ReizaM!

Overdue....Tzedakah Giveaway Winners

Over the end of Chanukah and for my birthday, I had a few giveaway posts that I still haven't resolved.
Oops, sorry! (The whole Gaza thing took over, I think.)

The first is a tree planted by Jewish National Fund in Israel in your honor.
This one goes to Gayle, and I think it's fabulous that it's her!

The second Chanukah giveaway was to to Mazon, $1 for every comment.
Just to let you all know, I will be giving $13 to Mazon in your honor.
Thanks! (I might round it up to $18 for good measure...)

I was going to give Chanukah donuts to Standing Together, which brings coffee and treats to IDF soldiers on patrol. As things have changed a little, they are doing even more work and I'm going to make a donation to them (it's just not for Chanukah anymore) in honor of Jack. I think this is pretty cool that he is the winner because he has been working so hard on his Gaza War update posts.

In honor of my birthday, I gave away 2 Birthday Angels Birthday parties (2 because you guys are awesome and I hit over 32 comments) in honor of Leah in Chicago and AngelForever!

If I'm donating in your honor, please let me know via email or TwitterDM how you'd like the "honor" to read.

Thanks for your patience, y'all. 
Can't wait until the next round of giveaways....stay tuned!


P.S. This week's Haveil Havalim (#200!!!!) is over here at Jack's place.
